Riverview Gallery: Medicine Men by John L. Doyle
This portfolio of 10 five color, hand printed, stone lithographs is a visual interpretation of mankind’s many faceted Medicine Men. To produce this series of work, artist John L. Doyle (1939 – 2010) spent two years researching in the field, in museums, and in libraries. This ethnological and anthropological study translates into images of remarkable historical and cultural accuracy.
