EDITORS COMMENTS
In this dramatic lithograph from the 19th century, we see a Pawnee Indian bravely defending himself and his wounded horse from a vicious attack by grizzly bears in the Rocky Mountains. The man stands at his horse's grave, armed only with a knife and other weapons as he faces off against the wild animals. A third bear lurks nearby, adding to the tension of the scene.
The image captures a moment of intense struggle and survival in the untamed wilderness of early America. The bravery and resourcefulness of the Pawnee warrior are evident as he fights off these formidable foes to protect himself and his loyal mount.
This print serves as a reminder of the harsh realities faced by Native Americans living on the frontier, where danger could strike at any moment. It also highlights their deep connection to nature and their ability to adapt and overcome challenges in order to survive.
The vivid colors and detailed engraving bring this historical event to life, allowing us to glimpse into a time when man and beast clashed in epic battles for survival. This artwork is not just a visual masterpiece but also a poignant tribute to the resilience and courage of indigenous peoples who lived harmoniously with nature despite facing constant threats from it.
