Description: George Catlin (July 26, 1796 - December 23, 1872) "Illustrations of the manners, customs & condition of the North American Indians"Size: Close to 10" x 6", cut out. George Catlin was an American painter, author and traveler who specialized in portraits of Native Americans in the Old West. Catlin was born in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Following a brief career as a lawyer, he produced two major collections of paintings of American Indians and published a series of books chronicling his travels among the native peoples of North, Central and South America. Claiming his interest in America's 'vanishing race' was sparked by a visiting American Indian delegation in Philadelphia, he set out to record the appearance and customs of America's native people. These images are from one of his seminal works "Illustrations of the manners, customs & condition of the North American Indians". The first edition was printed in 1841 not in color but subsequent editions were made into color prints. These images are likely from an earlier edition based on the quality of the paper and printing methods used. This lot comes with ten prints which are pictured above
