Emma Lewis was a daughter of noted potter Lucy M. Lewis.  This is one of her few figurative pieces.  She made two ram effigy pieces in 1984.  Both were inspired by the figurative pottery from Chaco Canyon.  The piece is coil-built and painted with bee-weed.  The sides and back have rain and lightning deigns.  The figure is signed on the bottom, “Emma Lewis”. The ‘”#1″ indicates is the first of the two ram pieces.  It is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.
