EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Pi-ta Ha-wi-da, a prominent Pawnee Chief during the mid-19th century. The image was captured by Julian Vannerson, an American photographer known for his skill in portraying Native American subjects. The studio of James Earle McClees, another renowned American photographer, is also associated with this remarkable piece. Taken between 1858 and 1859, this salted paper print measures approximately 19.8 by 14.7 cm (7 13/16 by 5 3/4 inches). It offers a rare glimpse into the life and culture of the Pawnee people during a time of great change in America's history. Pi-ta Ha-wi-da's dignified presence is evident as he gazes directly at the camera with piercing eyes that seem to hold untold stories within them. His traditional attire reflects his status as a respected leader within his community. This photograph from the Liszt Collection serves as both a historical document and a work of art that captures the essence of Native American heritage. It reminds us to appreciate and honor the rich diversity found among different cultures throughout our shared human experience.
