The image, created in 1844, captures a group of Ponca men and boys gathered around a bonfire on the banks of a river. They are dressed in loincloths and are barefoot, reflecting their connection to the land and their simple way of life. The men are seen expertly roasting fish over the open fire, using long sticks to turn the fish and keep them above the flames. The fish, likely caught fresh from the river, are sizzling and fragrant, filling the air with the enticing smell of a hearty meal. The scene is idyllic, with the sun setting in the background and the smoke from the fire rising into the sky. This engraving offers a glimpse into the history and culture of the Ponca tribe, who were indigenous peoples of the United States.
