EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Tshusik, a Chippeway Woman, in 1827. The image is an illustration from the renowned book "The Indian Tribes of North America". Volume 1, authored by Thomas L. McKenney and James Hall. Published by John Grant, this color lithograph was created by Charles Bird King as part of his artistic endeavor to depict Native American tribes. Tshusik's presence exudes strength and resilience as she gazes confidently into the distance. Her traditional Chippeway headdress adorns her head with intricate details that symbolize her cultural heritage and identity. This portrayal captures not only her physical beauty but also reflects the rich history and diversity of indigenous peoples in North America. What makes Tshusik's story even more remarkable is that she undertook an arduous journey on foot from Detroit to Washington in search of protection for her people. Her determination serves as a testament to the unwavering spirit found within many Native American communities during challenging times. This print offers viewers a glimpse into the lives of indigenous women who played vital roles within their tribes while facing numerous hardships imposed upon them throughout history. It serves as a reminder to appreciate and honor their contributions to our shared heritage.
