The Shadow of Things to Come

Description

A note from the Artist:

In 1854, Kick-ee-some-lo, daughter of Chief Sealth (Seattle), born in the morning shadow of Mt. Tohoma (Rainier), was 30-something when European immigrants began to invade her home in great numbers. She saw forests and thickets cut down and replaced by streets and buildings; she saw destruction all around. Her despair drove her to alcoholism; at times she would throw stones at the houses of Seattle’s sheriff and mayor. Even in her old age she was known for her feisty wit and ways.

She died with the certain sad knowledge that her home would never again be the land she had learned to love; harboring a vision of The Shadow of Things to Come.
