This painting of Kootenai Chief Koostata was one of the larger pieces that fell from the upper walls of the rotunda during the 2020 fire at the People's Center in Pablo. Art restoration specialist Joe Abbrescia said it was an honor to be able to restore this and several other pieces for the Tribes. (Carolyn Hidy/Lake County Leader)
