CDV Size Tintype of Kiowa war leader, "Big Tree"

Item Details

Description

An authentic period copy CDV Size Tintype depicting a Kiowa war leader, "Big Tree." The original CDV was taken by William Soule. This was produced in the period and is not one of the yellow copy tintypes that are often found today. This tintype encapsulates a moment frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the cultural richness and complexity of Native American life during the 19th century. The photographer's mastery in capturing the dignity and strength of his subjects is evident in every detail of this photograph, from the intricate adornments of the brave to the piercing intensity of his gaze. As a rare artifact of both photographic and anthropological significance, this tintype stands as a testament to the photographer's artistry and the resilience of Indigenous peoples. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of history that transcends mere imagery, but rather, tells a profound story of a bygone era.
