Please excuse the reflections on the glass of the background in the photos. The McKenney & Hall Pl. 67 original lithograph of Chittee Yoholo depicts an Indigenous American wearing traditional and colonial garb.
This antique original hand-colored lithograph is printed on creamy paper. Own a piece of history with this Indigenous American and is beautifully matted and framed, with a label on the back from a prominent Art Gallery in London.
First published in three volumes between 1838 and 1844, the History of the Indian Tribes of North America captures 125 portraits of Native American chieftains, orators, and translators who engaged in territorial negotiations with the U.S. government. The project was initiated by Thomas Loraine McKenney, the Superintendent of Indian Affairs, and James Hall, who authored the corresponding text. The project records the likeness and biography of many of the Native individuals who acted as liaisons between their tribes and the United States federal government during the period of negotiation prior to President Andrew Jackson’s endorsement of the Indian Removal Act in 1830. As a result, the History of the Indian Tribes of North America is unique in that it records the struggle and resilience of many Native American diplomats who sought to combat the U.S. possession of their land.
