EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Cherokees, 1841" offers a glimpse into the lives of Native Americans in the 19th century. Created by Myers and Co, this artwork is part of the renowned collection called Letters and Notes on the Manners, Customs and Condition of the North American Indians. The image showcases a group of Cherokees adorned in traditional attire. The men are dressed in intricately designed garments while wearing headdresses that symbolize their cultural heritage. Their jewelry, including necklaces and other accessories, adds an element of elegance to their appearance. Amongst them stands a striking Cherokee woman who exudes grace and strength. She wears a beautiful dress complemented by elaborate jewelry that enhances her natural beauty. Her headdress signifies her status within the community as well as her connection to ancestral traditions. This portrait not only captures individual expressions but also provides insight into Cherokee society during this era. It serves as a reminder of America's rich indigenous history and honors these resilient people who have inhabited this land for centuries. With its monochrome aesthetic, this print transports us back to a time when Native American culture flourished amidst changing times in America's history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece created by George Catlin under Myers and Co's direction, we are reminded of our shared humanity across different cultures throughout time.
