EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Ba-da-ah-chon-du (He Who Jumps Over Everyone) 1852" showcases a remarkable pencil drawing by George Catlin. This exquisite artwork, measuring 35x16.5 cm, is housed in the prestigious Newberry Library in Chicago, Illinois. Catlin's masterpiece serves as a poignant memento of the North American Indians during the mid-19th century. It pays homage to their once numerous and noble race, which was tragically on the brink of extinction. The focal point of this striking portrait is Badaahchondu, a prominent Crow chief. Dressed in traditional Native American attire, Badaahchondu dons an impressive feather headdress that symbolizes his esteemed status within his tribe. The intricate details captured by Catlin's skilled hand bring forth the essence of this proud leader and his rich cultural heritage. Accompanied by a quiver and staff, Badaahchondu exudes strength and authority through his commanding presence. His traditional dress further emphasizes his connection to ancestral traditions and values. This evocative image not only offers us a glimpse into the past but also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving indigenous cultures for future generations. Through Catlin's artistry, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and resilience of Native American communities across North America.
