EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "Big Elk, Ponca" is a part of the American Indian Chiefs series (N2) produced by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands in 1888. The image showcases an indigenous man from the Ponca tribe named Big Elk, who was a prominent chief during the late 19th century. Dressed in traditional tribal attire, he exudes strength and pride. The vibrant colors and intricate details of his clothing and accessories are beautifully captured through lithography. Feathers adorn his headpiece while a striking necklace embellished with jewels hangs around his neck. His stoic expression reflects wisdom and resilience. This artwork provides us with a glimpse into Native American heritage and tribal culture that existed in Nebraska, United States of America during this time period. It serves as a testament to the rich history and traditions of these indigenous communities. Displayed at The Met museum today, this print serves as an important historical document that preserves the legacy of Chief Big Elk and celebrates Native American identity. Through this image, we can appreciate the beauty of diversity and honor the contributions made by indigenous people to our shared cultural tapestry.
