Featured in this lot is this pair of color tinted etchings from renowned artists Karl Bodmer (1809–1893) and George Catlin (1796–1872) circa 20th century. There are two color tinted etchings in this collection. The first is by Karl Bodmer and is titled "Moennitarri Warrior Dog Dance" and shows a blown up rendition of this with the Native man wearing ceremonial garments holding a bow and arrows in one hand and a rattle in the other. Karl Bodmer (1809–1893) was a Swiss-born painter and printmaker best known for his vivid and accurate depictions of Native American peoples and the landscapes of the American West. In 1832–1834, he accompanied German explorer Prince Maximilian of Wied-Neuwied on an expedition up the Missouri River, documenting the journey through detailed watercolors and sketches. Bodmer’s works, later reproduced as hand-colored engravings, are celebrated for their ethnographic accuracy, capturing the clothing, customs, and faces of numerous tribes at a time of rapid cultural change. His artistry combined scientific precision with a deep respect for his subjects, leaving a lasting visual record of the early 19th-century frontier. The second is by George Catlin and is titled "Wolf Hunt" and depicts to Native American hunters dressed in wolf hides and sneaking up on a herd of buffalo. George Catlin (1796–1872) was an American painter, author, and traveler renowned for his extensive portraits and scenes of Native American life during the early to mid-19th century. Driven by a desire to document cultures he feared were disappearing under U.S. expansion, Catlin traveled widely through the Great Plains and along the upper Missouri River between 1830 and 1836, visiting more than fifty tribes. His paintings, later exhibited in the United States and Europe, combined ethnographic detail with a romantic vision of the West. Though sometimes criticized for artistic liberties, Catlin’s work remains an invaluable record of Native peoples, their traditions, and the landscapes they inhabited before widespread displacement.
