EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported to a Native American village, where the air is filled with anticipation and excitement. The image captures a moment from "The Song of Hiawatha" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, beautifully brought to life through the skilled lithography of Frederic Remington. Through the shadows and the sunshine, we witness an enchanting scene unfold before our eyes. Treading softly like a panther, an entertainer gracefully moves amidst onlookers who have gathered in their tepees. The atmosphere is electric as spectators eagerly watch this mesmerizing performance. As we delve into the rich verse of Longfellow's poem, we can almost hear the rhythmic beat of drums accompanying this dance. It is a celebration that transcends time and space; it speaks to us about unity, tradition, and love. The attention to detail in this engraving transports us back in time to witness Hiawatha's wedding feast. Amidst teepees adorned with intricate designs, Native Americans come together to honor this joyous occasion. Pau Puk Keewis takes center stage as he captivates everyone with his skillful movements. This remarkable print not only showcases Remington's talent but also serves as a reminder of the power of literature and art in preserving cultural heritage. It invites us to appreciate the beauty found within different traditions while recognizing our shared humanity across continents and generations.
