EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historical artifact from the 19th century, titled "Indian Campaign of 1832: Map of the Country". Created by an American School artist, this pen and ink drawing provides a glimpse into the Black Hawk War of 1832. The war was named after Black Hawk, a prominent war chief of the Sauk, Fox, and Kickapoo Native Americans. Measuring at 24.4x20.1 cm, this hand-drawn map is housed in the prestigious Newberry Library in Chicago, Illinois. It covers a region in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin, encompassing areas around Lake Winnebago, the Kankakee River, Peoria, and Prairie du Chien. The intricate details on this map offer valuable insights into American territory during that time period. Its depiction of native settlements and geographical features sheds light on the midwestern landscape as it existed over a century ago. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' collection without commercial intentions or affiliations with any company mentioned here; we are reminded of North America's rich history and its complex relationship with indigenous peoples. This photograph serves as both an educational tool for understanding past conflicts and as a testament to artistic craftsmanship that has stood the test of time.
