EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Pe-che-co" takes us back in time to the early 19th century when Native American tribes still roamed the vast lands of North America. The image showcases a Pottowattomie Chief, his regal presence emanating from every line etched on his weathered face. The artist behind this remarkable piece is James Otto Lewis, whose collection of portraits called "The Aboriginal Port-folio" immortalized some of the most celebrated chiefs of that era. This particular portrait was painted during the treaty of Massinnewa in 1827, capturing not only the physical features but also the spirit and dignity of this indigenous leader. Dressed in traditional clothing adorned with intricate patterns and feathers, Pe-che-co stands as a symbol of strength and resilience. His piercing eyes seem to hold countless stories passed down through generations, reminding us of the rich cultural heritage that once thrived across these lands. As we gaze upon this lithograph-turned-photo print from Bridgeman Images, we are transported into a world where tribal chiefs were revered as kings and rulers within their communities. It serves as a poignant reminder to honor and respect the diverse cultures that have shaped our history while acknowledging their contributions to our present-day society.
