Featured in this lot is this George Catlin Native American Chief's lithograph collection. There are a total of four total lithographs in this collection.

The third is of chief Tah-teck-a-da-hair, The Steep Wind - Teton Dakota Brave (Western Sioux). The last is of chief Mah-to-toh-pa, The Four Bears - Mandan Second Chief. T raveling to the American West five times during the 1830s, Catlin wrote about and painted portraits that depicted the life of the Plains Indians. From 1832 to 1837, Catlin spent summers (and one winter) traveling with and documenting the life of Native Americans from the Sioux (Lakota), Blackfeet, Crow, Mandan and other tribes. With the advent of railroads, Catlin saw that American culture was moving from the East Coast toward the West and knew that the Native Americans way of life likely would drastically change as development reached them. He would sketch while out with the tribes and then return to his studio in the winter to add color. The condition of this collection of lithographs is good with some wear to the envelope but otherwise shows good overall condition. The measurements of this collection is 14 1/2" x 11 1/4".
