This colorful beauty of a poster was originally intended to be a part of the SAS calendar of 1966.
The theme of the calendar was "Dances of the world" by the famous Danish artist Otto Nielsen.
The Hopi Buffalo Dance, or Bison Dance, is an annual dance festival of many North American Plains natives, including the Mandan, Sioux, Cheyenne, Pawnee, and Omaha, among others. The festival traditionally coincided with the return of the buffalo herds, and included a feast and a dance with a number of men wearing buffalo and other animal skins. As the buffalo, or bison, was so central to society, it was important to assure the return of the herd and an abundance of food and resources.
