EDITORS COMMENTS

The image showcases Keokuk, adorned in traditional feathers and an impressive headdress, exuding strength and authority as he stands tall with his watchful fox by his side. As a chief of the Sauk or Sac tribe, Keokuk played a significant role in shaping the relationship between his people and the U. S. government during a tumultuous period. His cooperation with the government ultimately led to war with Black Hawk, highlighting both his diplomatic skills and commitment to protecting his tribe's interests. This print not only captures Keokuk's powerful presence but also hints at the legacy he left behind. Upon his passing, his son Moses assumed leadership, carrying on their family's influential position within their community. The artwork provides insight into Native American culture through its depiction of tribal symbols such as warrior staffs and tomahawks while showcasing intricate details like traditional robes worn by both adults and children. It serves as a reminder of the rich heritage these tribes possess. Displayed in Washington D. C.
