Spirit of the Desert Plate by Kevin Glick

This is a round, decorative collector's plate, likely crafted from fine porcelain or ceramic, given its smooth appearance and the gold trim. The plate features a central illustration depicting a Native American male figure, bare-chested with crossed arms, wearing a traditional headdress (possibly a war bonnet) and a white loincloth or skirt. He is seated atop a brown and white speckled horse, which stands in a muted, earthy landscape of dry grasses. To the right of the horse, a wolf or coyote is depicted lying on the ground, observing. The color palette of the illustration is predominantly naturalistic, with browns, tans, and creams, creating a harmonious and somewhat contemplative scene. The edge of the plate is adorned with a thin, continuous gold band, suggesting a certain level of refinement and quality. In the lower left corner, a legible artist's signature, "Kevin Glick," is visible, indicating the designer of the artwork. No obvious chips, cracks, or significant wear are visible from the provided image, suggesting the plate is in good to excellent condition, preserving its decorative appeal. The artistic style leans towards realistic portraiture and wildlife art, common in collectible plates from the late 20th or early 21st century. The theme, depicting a 'Spirit of the desert' and a Native American figure with a wolf, evokes a sense of nature, wilderness, and cultural reverence. The plate's construction appears solid, with no warping or inconsistencies in its round shape.
