EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sat down in the farthest corner, Crouching low among the shadows" takes us on a journey into the world of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem, The Song of Hiawatha. Published in 1911 by George G. Harrap & Company Ltd. , this lithograph by Frederic Remington beautifully captures a poignant moment from Native American folklore. In this scene, we find ourselves inside a dimly lit teepee where an intriguing group of strangers has gathered. Sat down in the farthest corner is our protagonist, seemingly crouching low among the shadows. As we peer closer, we notice their intense gaze fixed upon something beyond our view. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as laughter fills the air. We can almost hear the crackling fire and feel its warmth against our skin. The intricate details within this engraving transport us to North America's indigenous lands, where ancient stories come alive. Longfellow's words echo through time as we imagine Nokomis and Minnehaha sharing tales around campfires like these. This image serves as a visual representation of Longfellow's powerful verse and invites us to delve deeper into his literary masterpiece. As part of The Stapleton Collection housed in a private collection today, this print reminds us of America's rich cultural heritage and offers an opportunity to appreciate both artistry and literature intertwined harmoniously within one frame.
