EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1891, offering a rare glimpse into the interior of Chief Red Cloud's house. The frame dwelling, built in 1879 near the Pine Ridge Agency in South Dakota, served as a sanctuary for this esteemed Native American Oglala Lakota Sioux leader. As we peer into the room, our eyes are immediately drawn to the bed adorned with striped blankets and surrounded by wooden chairs. The walls proudly display religious pictures of the Virgin Mary and Christ, including an intriguing "Ecco Homo" image. American flags hang gracefully from above, symbolizing both patriotism and cultural heritage. The details within this snapshot transport us to another time - a straw hat rests on a chair while a leather belt with conchas lies nearby alongside knife sheaths. These personal items offer insight into Chief Red Cloud's daily life and his connection to nature through hunting tools like bows and arrows. Through this photograph captured by Clarence Grant Morledge (1865-1948) from Denver Public Library's Western History Collection, we are granted access to an intimate space that holds historical significance for Native Americans across America. It is a testament to their resilience and rich cultural traditions that continue to shape our nation today.
