EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1735 oil on canvas print, titled "Tishcohan" by Gustavus Hesselius, showcases the remarkable portrait of an indigenous Native American chief. Measuring 84x63.5 cm, this artwork is housed in the prestigious Philadelphia History Museum at the Atwater Kent. The subject of this painting is Tishcohan, a prominent tribal leader who played a significant role in history by signing the Walking Purchase treaty in 1737. The name Tishcohan translates to "he who never blackens himself" reflecting his noble character and unwavering integrity. In this half-length portrait, Tishcohan exudes strength and wisdom as he gazes directly at the viewer. He holds a pipe with reverence, symbolizing peace and unity within his tribe. The intricate details captured by Hesselius bring out every nuance of Tishcohan's features and traditional attire. Notably, Tishcohan's pouch made from chipmunk skin adds an intriguing element to the composition. This accessory represents his connection to nature and highlights his resourcefulness as a tribal chief. As we admire this masterpiece today, it serves as a powerful reminder of Native American heritage and their contributions to shaping America's history. Through Hesselius' brushstrokes, we are transported back in time to witness the dignity and resilience embodied by individuals like Tishcohan.
