EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the enigmatic figure of Chief Black Tongue of the Cheyenne tribe, taken by renowned American photographer David Frances Barry in 1880. The Chief, whose real name was White Horse, is depicted in the image wrapped in a traditional Cheyenne blanket, adding a sense of warmth and comfort to the image. In his hands, he holds a Head and Tail Fan, an essential prop used in Cheyenne ritual dances. The fan, made from eagle feathers, represents the power and strength of the eagle and is believed to bring good fortune and protection. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Cheyenne people during a time of significant change. The late 19th century saw the forced relocation of Native American tribes from their ancestral lands, leading to the loss of traditional ways of life. This image serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and determination of Native American communities to preserve their traditions and maintain their cultural identity. David Frances Barry was a prolific photographer who documented the lives of Native Americans during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. His work provides invaluable insights into the lives of indigenous peoples during a time of great upheaval and change. This photograph of Chief Black Tongue is a testament to the enduring power of tradition and the importance of preserving cultural heritage.
