EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut reproduction of a historic photograph transports us back to the rugged and tumultuous era of the American West in the late 19th century. The image showcases two remarkable figures who emerged as the sole survivors from one of history's most infamous battles - Custer's Last Stand. Mounted on his loyal steed, "Comanche" we see a US Army horse named after the brave Native American tribe. Comanche stands tall and proud, bearing witness to the harrowing events that unfolded during the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876. Alongside him is Curley, an intrepid scout whose knowledge and skills proved invaluable to General George Armstrong Custer's ill-fated expedition. Both horse and scout embody resilience, representing not only their own survival but also symbolizing hope amidst tragedy. Their presence serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who fought on both sides during this conflict between Native Americans and settlers. This evocative print captures a pivotal moment in American history, immortalizing these courageous individuals who played significant roles in shaping our nation's narrative. It reminds us of our shared heritage, bridging cultures through its depiction of traditional Native American customs alongside military valor. As we gaze upon this poignant image, let us remember those who came before us - warriors like Curley and Comanche - whose stories continue to echo through time as reminders of sacrifice, bravery, and perseverance against all odds.
