EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Three Iroquois Indians, 1861 / 1869" captures a powerful glimpse into the lives of Native Americans in Upper Canada during the mid-19th century. Created by renowned artist George Catlin, this oil painting showcases three prominent figures from the Iroquois tribe. In the center stands Not-a-way, a distinguished chief adorned in traditional attire and holding an imposing tomahawk. To his left is Tchee-a-ka-chee, a woman exuding strength and resilience with her bow and arrow at hand. On Not-a-way's right stands Nox-to-ye, a fierce warrior ready for battle with his axe firmly gripped. The oval-shaped portrait emphasizes their significance within their tribal community while highlighting their individual roles as leaders and protectors. Their stoic expressions reveal both pride in their heritage and determination to defend their people against any threat. Catlin's use of color adds depth to this historical masterpiece, evoking the cold landscapes of Upper Canada where these brave individuals resided. The intricate details in each character's clothing showcase the rich cultural heritage of the Iroquois people. This print serves as a poignant reminder of America's indigenous history and pays homage to those who fought valiantly to preserve their way of life amidst changing times. It invites viewers to reflect on our shared past while honoring the resilience and spirit of Native American communities throughout history.
