EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Pe-a-jick" by James Otto Lewis takes us back in time to the early 19th century, capturing the essence of a Chippewa Chief. The image is part of "The Aboriginal Port-folio: A Collection of Portraits of the Most Celebrated Chiefs of the North American Indians" a remarkable compilation by J. O. Lewis. In this portrait, we witness the strength and dignity exuded by this tribal chief. His piercing eyes gaze directly at the viewer, revealing wisdom beyond his years. Adorned with intricate jewelry and an elaborate necklace, he proudly displays his cultural heritage through these exquisite pieces. The Chief's face tells a story - one that reflects resilience, courage, and pride in his Native American roots. Paint adorns his features, symbolizing both personal expression and tribal identity. This powerful representation reminds us of the rich traditions passed down through generations among indigenous communities. Clothed in traditional attire befitting a ruler, this leader stands as a testament to kingship within his tribe. The lithograph engraving technique used to create this print adds depth and texture to every line and contour captured on paper. As we observe this mesmerizing portrait from yesteryears preserved at Newberry Library in Chicago, Illinois; we are transported into an era where native cultures thrived amidst adversity. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history with Indigenous peoples while honoring their enduring legacy for future generations to appreciate and respect.
