3 cabinet photographs on cardstock mounts, each with Barry's imprint on mount recto and/or verso. Subjects include: Chief Gall, featured with bare legs and torso, his head adorned by a single feather and his body clothed by a simple tunic cloth tied around his waist. He wears moccasins on his feet and a large cross-shaped pendant over his chest. Barry's West Superior imprint on recto and verso. -- Standing portrait of woman identified by affixed paper label on mount recto as "Gaul's [sic] Wife." Possibly Martina Blue Earth, the widow of Iron Cloud, a friend of Gall's who had fallen in battle. The couple was married by Lakota custom before their November 1894 wedding in St. Elizabeth's Episcopal Church on the Standing Rock Reservation. Martina was purportedly Gall's fourth wife, but his third wife, Stand-in Center, was commonly entered on Standing Rock records as his only wife (as furnished by consignor's notes obtained from Standing Rock enrollment lists). At Little Bighorn, Gall's first two wives and their three daughters were murdered in one of the first volleys fired by Major Marcus A. Reno's troops during his attack on the Hunkpapa village. Barry's Bismarck, D.T. imprint on verso. -- Studio portrait of "Gall & Nephew," as identified on mount below image. Gall is fully clothed, wearing a single feather in his hair and large cross-shaped pendant. Barry's West Superior, Wisconsin imprint on recto and verso.

Together, 3 cabinet photographs.

Chief Gall (ca 1840-1894) was famous for his military efforts in the wars against the US and for his participation in the Battle of Little Bighorn in 1876.
