EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Ghost dance painting on buckskin, created by an American School artist in the 19th century. The artwork, which is a color lithograph, depicts a significant religious ceremony known as the Ghost Dance and offers insight into Native American spirituality and culture. The painting was originally featured in an article written by James Mooney titled "The Ghost-Dance Religion and the Sioux Outbreak of 1890". It appeared in the Fourteenth Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution in 1892-93. This particular image served as an illustration for Part 2 of Mooney's article. The intricate details within this pictogram-like artwork convey not only spiritual elements but also depict various animals and figures that hold symbolic meaning within Native American tribes. The use of hides and skins further emphasizes their connection to nature and their deep-rooted traditions. As we explore this historical piece, it becomes evident that it represents more than just art; it serves as a valuable ethnographic record documenting indigenous peoples' history, religion, and social practices during that time period. Its significance lies not only in its visual appeal but also in its contribution to our understanding of North American tribal cultures. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the artistic beauty and cultural importance embedded within this remarkable piece from America's past.
