Mo-sho-la-tub-bee, He Who Puts Out and Kills - A Glimpse into Native American Heritage
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this oil painting by George Catlin, we are transported back to the 19th century, where Mo-sho-la-tub-bee, Chief of the Choctaw Tribe, stands proudly before us. Dressed in vibrant blue traditional clothing adorned with wampum beads and feathers, he exudes a sense of strength and dignity. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of Mo-sho-la-tub-bee's attire - from his intricately designed fan held firmly in his hand to the peace pipe gently resting between his fingers. As smoke rises from the tobacco-filled pipe, it symbolizes not only a momentary pause but also a connection to ancestral traditions. Catlin's portrait captures more than just an individual; it encapsulates an entire culture. Through this powerful image, we gain insight into the rich heritage of Native Americans and their deep-rooted pride in their identity. Displayed at the Smithsonian American Art Museum as part of its educational institution collection, this artwork serves as a reminder of our country's diverse history. It prompts us to reflect on our shared past while honoring those who have shaped America's cultural tapestry. As we gaze upon Mo-sho-la-tub-bee's resolute expression and look away towards distant horizons, we are reminded that indigenous peoples' stories deserve recognition within our collective narrative
