EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from the 19th century showcases Black Hawk, a prominent figure of the Sac and Fox tribe, as part of the American Indian Chiefs series by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands. Dressed in traditional tribal attire, Black Hawk exudes strength and dignity with his fur hat adorned with feathers and intricate clothing. His facial hair and moustache add to his commanding presence. The lithotint printing technique used for this image brings out vibrant colors that beautifully capture the essence of Native American heritage art. The attention to detail in this piece is remarkable, highlighting every feather on Black Hawk's headdress and each stitch on his clothing. As we delve into history through this photograph print, we are transported back to a time when tribal culture thrived in America. This artwork serves as a reminder of the rich traditions that have shaped our country's past. Displayed at The Met museum, this lithograph provides an opportunity for viewers to appreciate not only its artistic value but also gain insight into the lives and contributions of indigenous people like Black Hawk. It invites us to reflect upon their resilience while honoring their cultural legacy. With its striking composition and historical significance, this image stands as a testament to Allen & Ginter's dedication towards preserving Native American history through their iconic cigarette card series.
