BESCHREIBUNG:
|
A fine image from Catlin's 'North American Indian Portfolio', one of the most important accounts of native-American life. Catlin here combines three distinct portraits for the introductory plate to his North American Indian Portfolio which otherwise details hunting scenes and other aspects of Indian life. As Catlin writes: "The group in Plate 1 is composed of three Portraits from my Collection, representing three different tribes of various latitudes, and well illustrating a number of the leading characteristics of this interesting part of the human family." All three figures, an Osage Warrior, an Iroquois, and a Pawnee woman, are shown in modes of dress and ornamentation for cool weather, exhibiting the characteristic differences of the various tribes.
