EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork titled "Pehriska-Ruhpa, Moennitarri Warrior in the Costume of the Dog Danse" by Karl Bodmer. Created in 1840, this etching and aquatint piece is hand-colored on white wove paper, measuring 54x39.1 cm. It belongs to a private collection. The image depicts Pehriska-Ruhpa, a Moennitarri warrior dressed in an elaborate costume for the Dog Dance. This artwork was inspired by Alexander Philipp Maximilian's book "Travels in the Interior of North America". Rene Rollet skillfully reproduced Bodmer's original work using etching and aquatint techniques. Set against an outdoor backdrop, this nineteenth-century Native American Indian is portrayed with great attention to detail and vibrant colors. The artist captures every aspect of his attire - from his traditional headdress to his bow and arrow - showcasing the rich tribal culture of that time. Bodmer's artistry brings this historical figure to life as he stands confidently with arms crossed, emanating strength and pride. The hand coloring adds depth and realism to the scene while emphasizing its cultural significance. This remarkable print offers viewers a glimpse into mid-nineteenth century North America through European eyes. It serves as a testament to both artistic talent and cross-cultural exploration during that era.
