EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a poignant moment in history, showcasing the Northern Cheyenne Indians in Dodge City, Kansas, back in 1878. The image was taken by an American photographer from the 19th century and is now part of the Denver Public Library's Western History Collection. In this group portrait, we see members of Dull Knifes group: Fizzley Hair, Wild Hog, Rain in the Face, Crow, Old Man, White Antelope, and George Reynolds. They are seated on the steps outside the Dodge City courthouse after being captured. Their traditional costumes and moccasins reflect their Native American heritage. The expressions on their faces convey a sense of despondency as they sit there as captives. Blankets are draped around them for warmth amidst what appears to be inclement weather conditions. Each individual's hairstyle tells its own story - from Fizzley Hair's wild locks to Rain in the Face's solemn expression. This photograph serves as a reminder of a turbulent time marked by conflict between Native Americans and settlers during the American Indian Wars. It offers us a glimpse into these individuals' lives at that particular moment in history. As we observe this powerful image today through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, it allows us to reflect upon our shared past while honoring and respecting Native American culture and heritage.
