EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 17th century, offering a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Native American tribes. The image showcases a mesmerizing Native American scalp dance, an ancient tradition that held great significance within their communities. The men in this engraving are fully immersed in the rhythmic movements of the dance, their bodies adorned with traditional attire. Each step they take resonates with deep-rooted history and spiritual symbolism. As they gracefully move across the scene, one can almost hear the beat of drums echoing through time. The artist skillfully captures not only the physicality but also the essence of this sacred ritual. It serves as a reminder of how deeply connected these indigenous people were to their land and traditions. Printed in Cassells History of the United States by Edmund Ollier, Volume I, this piece is a testament to Ollier's dedication to preserving historical moments through his artistry. Through his work, he allows us to appreciate and honor cultures that have shaped our world today. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from c1880, we are transported back centuries ago when Native Americans thrived on this vast land now known as America. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history and encourages us to celebrate diversity while cherishing our collective past.
