EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Haida Dog-fish" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of American Indians. The artwork is a colour lithograph created by an unknown American School artist, based on an original illustration by Garrick Mallery. It was featured in an article on Picture-writing of the American Indians. The image showcases a Haida Dog-fish pictogram, which holds great significance in Native American culture. Pictographs like these were used as a form of communication and storytelling among indigenous peoples. This particular depiction beautifully captures the intricate details and symbolism associated with this ancient art form. As we delve into this historical piece, we are transported to North America's past, where native communities thrived alongside nature. The dog fish itself represents more than just an animal; it embodies spiritual beliefs and societal values deeply rooted within these tribes.
