EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed print captures the essence of Battiste Goods Cycles, a fascinating piece of American Indian picture-writing. Created by an unknown 19th-century American School artist, this colour lithograph showcases the intricate pictograms and ideograms used by Native Americans to communicate their stories and traditions. Commissioned for an article on Picture-writing of the American Indians by Garrick Mallery, this illustration is a historical treasure from the Tenth Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology. It offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and social dynamics of North America's indigenous peoples during that era. The image features various figures, animals, and symbols intricately engraved in stunning detail. Among them are buffalo, horses including racehorses and shire horses, ponies, stallions, as well as other wildlife creatures. These depictions provide valuable insights into both everyday life and significant events within Native American communities. As we explore this artwork further, it becomes evident that communication played a vital role in these societies. The use of pictographs allowed individuals to convey complex ideas through simple yet powerful visual representations. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this remarkable piece from their private collection. Through this print from Fine Art Finder, viewers can now appreciate not only its artistic value but also gain deeper knowledge about America's past through its depiction of indigenous cultures and their unique forms of expression.
