EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Grave fire" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the mortuary customs of North American Indians. The image, a colour lithograph created by an unknown American School artist, showcases a powerful and spiritual scene. In this illustration from Dr H C Yarrow's book on Mortuary Customs of the North American Indians, we witness a female figure surrounded by flames. The fires symbolize the sacred ritual of burial and serve as a means to guide the deceased into their afterlife. This depiction sheds light on the deep connection between spirituality and death within Native American culture. The historical significance of this artwork lies in its portrayal of indigenous traditions that were integral to these tribes' way of life. It offers valuable insights into their social structure, religious beliefs, and rituals surrounding death. Through intricate engravings and meticulous attention to detail, this image transports us back in time to witness an important aspect of Native American history. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists within North America's indigenous peoples.
