Lot Description

[NATIVE AMERICANS]. Cabinet photograph of aged Sioux woman with image of US Treaty document. Wabasha, Minnesota: E.S. Kibbe, [ca 1885].


4 x 5 1/2 in. albumen photograph on cardstock mount (light toning throughout, with minor spotting and very light wear to mount edges and corners). 

Image features an aged Sioux woman wearing a blanket with a United States treaty document featured at lower right corner. Treaty document appears to be dated 1 July 1885[?] and to refer to Chief Wabasha III or IV, as a bound party in treaty with the United States. Additional details are difficult to discern. It is unclear how the female subject is specifically related to the treaty. 


This lot is located in Cincinnati.
