EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "Pontiac in Council" (1877). The creator, Albert Bobbett, beautifully portrays Pontiac (or Obwandiyag), an influential chief of the Ottawa people in North America during the 18th century. Known for his leadership skills and determination, Pontiac organized a united resistance against British forces in what became known as Pontiac's War. In this engraving from "Our Country: a Household History for All Readers" we witness Pontiac addressing his fellow tribespeople at an important council meeting. The image exudes strength and unity as men gather around their respected leader to discuss strategies and make crucial decisions. The artist, Felix Octavius Carr Darley, skillfully brings out the historical significance of this event through meticulous details. Every line on the faces of these Native American leaders tells a story of resilience and pride. This monochrome portrayal adds depth to the scene, emphasizing its timeless importance. As we gaze upon this print by Albert Bobbett, we are reminded of the rich indigenous heritage that shaped our nation's past. It serves as a powerful reminder of the struggles faced by Native Americans throughout history while also honoring their contributions to American society.
