Churchill Art Piece Called Into Question

by CBS4 News reporter Raj Chohan

Feb 24, 2005 8:03 pm US/Mountain BOULDER, Colo. (CBS4) Boulder County resident Duke Prentup has been a fan of native American art for as long as he can remember. That love of art took him to the home of Ward Churchill in the early 1980's, where Prentup bought several pieces of Churchill's art, including a serigraph titled "Winter Attack."

"I have enjoyed them ever since immensely, they're obviously up inside my house," Prentup said.

Last month came a stunning revelation, though, as as Prentup flipped through a 1972 book called The Mystic Warriors of the Plains written and illustrated by the late artist Thomas E. Mails. He found a sketch that was strikingly similar to the Churchill piece.

We already know what a pathetic bastard this Churchill guy is and thus, no new revelation is a surprise.

Howlin, "view partial source" is be the bomb alright. But it's still Greek to me, I'm embarrassed to say.

Really... this is why FR is so good. So many people, with so many divergent levels and areas of expertise. It's called Teamwork.

It looks OK now on this FR page, but as soon as the eBay seller takes it down and removes the photos from the server they're hosted on, this FR webpage will show a bunch of photo "place-holders" that look like this:

Unless of course someone saves the photos too? (hint hint)
