EDITORS COMMENTS
This compelling group portrait, captured by renowned photographer John C.H. Grabill in 1891, documents a pivotal moment in American history as Lakota chiefs gathered to council with General Nelson A. Miles, marking the end of the Indian Wars. The image features five Lakota chiefs standing proudly, including the famous Hunkpapa leader, Standing Bull, and Two Bear Who Looks Back Running, also known as Stands and Looks Back. The remaining chiefs, Has the Big White Horse, White Tail, Living Bear (Liver Bear), Little Thunder, Bull Dog, High Hawk, Lame, and Eagle Pipe, are seated around a tipi. The chiefs are dressed in traditional apparel, including buckskin clothing, bearcoats, and blankets, reflecting their connection to the land and their culture. The exterior setting, likely on or near the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, underscores the significance of this meeting as a turning point in the relationship between Native Americans and the encroaching American frontier. With direct gazes and a sense of purpose, these chiefs embody the resilience and determination of indigenous peoples in the face of change. This historic image offers a poignant glimpse into the past, providing valuable insight into the complexities of the American West during the 19th century.
