EDITORS COMMENTS
The Give-away Celebration: A Glimpse into Native American Heritage". This photo print, titled "The Give-away celebration" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by the talented artist Amos Bad Heart Buffalo, this ink on paper masterpiece captures the essence of a traditional Native American ceremony. Set against the backdrop of the Battle of Little Big Horn in June 1876, also known as Custer's Last Stand, Lieutenant Colonel A. Custer and his troops are depicted alongside indigenous people engaging in an age-old ritual. The scene showcases gifts being exchanged, including horses and their ornate trappings. With its vibrant colors and intricate details, this artwork offers a glimpse into Northern tribal culture during a time when traditions were deeply rooted in everyday life. The ceremonial headdresses adorned with feathers symbolize victory and pride while mounted warriors proudly parade through the scene. Through ledger art – an artistic tradition where drawings were made on old account ledgers – Amos Bad Heart Buffalo immortalizes this historical event for generations to come. This piece not only pays homage to Native American heritage but also serves as a reminder of their resilience and strength. As we admire this remarkable composition from Bridgeman Images' collection, let us appreciate the rich tapestry of America's diverse cultural history that is beautifully captured within "The Give-away celebration.
