EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning artwork titled "Tribe Shoshone, c. 1837" by Alfred Jacob Miller. Created using pen and ink, watercolor, and gouache on paper, this piece measures 22.6x18.5 cm and is housed in the Joslyn Museum in Omaha, Nebraska. The painting depicts a Native American man from the Snake Indians tribe (also known as Shoshone), beautifully adorned with feathers and traditional clothing. The artist, Miller, along with Scottish soldier Sir William Drummond Stewart and trapper Thomas Fitzpatrick, embarked on an expedition through the Oregon Trail in 1837 to rendezvous with fur trappers in Wyoming's Green River Valley. The Snake Indians were familiar faces to Stewart during their journey through old Nebraska Territory. This artwork not only captures the individuality of this Shoshone man but also serves as a testament to the exploration of the American West during the 19th century. Miller's attention to detail brings out every intricate feature of his subject's profile while showcasing vibrant colors that breathe life into this historical moment. It offers viewers a glimpse into Native American culture at that time and highlights their unique traditions. This remarkable piece stands as both a work of art and an important historical document that sheds light on early expeditions across North America's vast landscapes.
