DescriptionBirds, insects, and mammals fill the canvas. A sunset/sunrise brings color to the vegetation and river making up the background. Endashian is an Ojibway (Anishinabe) Indian word. According to a dictionary compiled by Fredrick Baraga in 1880, it means "myself and all my family; all those who belong to me."
