Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. McKENNEY, Thomas L. & James HALL (illus. Charles Bird King et al.). History of the Indian Tribes of North America, with Biographical Sketches and Anecdotes of the Principal Chiefs. Norwalk, Connecticut: The Easton Press, 2010. 3 vols. Large Octavo. Full tan leather. Sp…ines with raised bands, gilt-decorated. All edges gilt. Silk moiré endpapers. Satin ribbon page markers. 121 colour plates throughout, including portraits after Charles Bird King, Karl Bodmer, and James Otto Lewis. Certificate of Authenticity included. Facsimile of the original Philadelphia edition of 1836-1844. Deluxe limited edition. Limited to 400 numbered sets. Thomas Loraine McKenney (1785-1859) served as Superintendent of Indian Trade from 1816 to 1822 and then as the first Commissioner of Indian Affairs from 1824 until his dismissal by Andrew Jackson in 1830. During those years in Washington he commissioned the painter Charles Bird King to produce portraits of the Native American leaders and delegates who visited the capital — men and women representing the nations of the eastern woodlands, the Great Lakes, the southern territories, and the plains, at a moment when their political futures were being determined by an increasingly hostile federal government. King painted more than a hundred of these portraits from life in his Washington studio. McKenney understood from the beginning that he was creating a record of peoples whose way of life was under existential threat. The word preservation was not available to him as a critical concept, but that is what he was attempting. In 1836 McKenney and the writer James Hall began publishing the portraits as the History of the Indian Tribes of North America, with Hall contributing biographical sketches of each subject alongside McKenney's historical account. The work appeared in three volumes in Philadelphia between 1836 and 1844, illustrated with 120 hand-coloured lithographic plates produced by J. T. Bowen from King's originals. It was, as the bookseller Reese has described it, "the grandest colour-plate book issued in the United States up to the time of its publication." When the Smithsonian Institution fire of 1865 destroyed nearly all of King's original paintings, the lithographs became the primary surviving visual record of the people depicted. The faces in this book are, in many cases, the only portraits that exist of individuals who were themselves among the last to know their nations intact. All but four of the book's original paintings were destroyed in the disastrous Smithsonian fire of 1865; their appearance in this work preserves what is probably the best likeness of dozens of prominent nineteenth-century Native Americans. The Easton Press Deluxe Limited Edition of 2010, produced in a strictly limited run of 400 numbered sets with 121 colour plates, is the most finely produced modern edition of this landmark work in American cultural history. Near fine. Some minor loss to cover gilt, some mild foxing along edges. Otherwise, fine throughout. Plates glossy and bright. Please note: This item is a multi-volume set and may require additional postage costs. If so, we will contact you after purchase. Charles Bird King et al. (illustrator).

Hand-colored lithographic dedication and 120 hand-colored lithographic plates , some heightened with gum arabic; Contemporary publisher's red gilt morocco, ruled in blind, all edges gilt. FIRST OCTAVO EDITION, after the folio edition of 1837-1844. ."Both authors saw their… book as a way of preserving an accurate visual record of a rapidly disappearing culture. The text, which was written by Hall based on information supplied by McKenney, takes the form of a series of biographies of leading figures amongst the Indian nations, followed by a general history of the North American Indians. The work is now famous for its color plate portraits of the chiefs, warriors and squaws of the various tribes, faithful copies of original oils by Charles Bird King painted from life in his studio in Washington (McKenney commissioned him to record the visiting Indian delegates) or worked up by King from the watercolors of the young frontier artist, James Otto Lewis. All but four of the original paintings were destroyed in the disastrous Smithsonian fire of 1865, so their appearance in this work preserves what is probably the best likeness of many of the most prominent Indian leaders of the early 19th century. -- ReeseThomas McKenney assembled portraits of Native Americans by taking visiting Native American dignitaries to the studio of Charles Bird King in Washington, who would paint their portraits in oil. These formed part of a portrait gallery at the Smithsonian, which were all destroyed in the 1865 Smithsonian fire. McKenney endeavored to recreate the portraits in lithographs, resulting in the work's "long and checkered publication history [which] spanned twelve years and involved multiple lithographers (mainly Peter S. Duval and James T. Bowen) and publishers. " (Reese, Stamped With A National Character 24).

In 1857, the Mercantile Library Association of the City of Brooklyn was established, and the Mercantile Library of Brooklyn subsequently opened in a building shared by the Brooklyn Athanaeum and Reading Room. In 1865, the Brooklyn Library Association of the Eastern District was established for the purpose of establishing a library in Brooklyn's Eastern District, and in 1868, the Law Library in Brooklyn was established.

In den WarenkorbZustand: Fine in very good jackets. dj. Important edition of the monumental visual record of Native American leaders, including an extensive account of the original 1836-44 folio edition, biography of the original authors, and the infamous Smithsonian fire - all new to this edition. Thomas L. McKenney, a Quaker, served as the US… Government's Superintendent of Indian Affairs from 1824 to 1830. During this period he worked with the renowned American artist Charles Bird King, commissioning the artist to paint portraits of Native leaders who were visiting the government in DC. The fame of the paintings soon spread, and McKenney conceived of a massive printing project to record them in book form. At the same time, incoming president Andrew Jackson fired McKenney, after McKenney fundamentally rejected Jackson's stance on the US's relationship with Indigenous nations. Suddenly jobless, McKenney threw himself into the project, mounting one of the most ambitious book projects ever seen in the United States up to that time: three elephant folio volumes containing 120 hand-colored plates. Already a significant record of leaders and their nations, the books took on supreme importance as a cultural document after a fire at the Smithsonian engulfed the majority of Charles Bird King's original paintings. This edition made the production accessible in the 20th century beyond the increasing rarity of the 19th-century folio and octavo editions. Its introduction by Hodge captures the growing legend of the story behind the production, detailing the delays and obstacles that threatened more than once to end the project. A noteworthy edition, mythologizing and making accessible the story of a critical record of Indigenous nations in the pre-Jacksonian era. 3 thick octavo volumes, 9.25'' x 6.75'' each. Original blue pictorial cloth stamped in blind, gilt-lettered spines. In original typographic dust jackets (no price on flaps). Top edges gilt, other edges uncut, some leaves unopened. Illustrated with two photogravure portraits (of McKenney and Hall), 123 full-page color plates after King's paintings with captions tissue guards, and 2 color folding maps. Volume I with historical introduction by Frederick Webb Hodge. lxiv, 442, [2]; viii, 458, [2]; xvi, 355 pages. Jackets with a bit of creasing, some soiling. Cloth and interior fresh and bright.

Head-and-shoulders portrait of female Oto, wife of Chief Shaumonekusse, long black braids with hair parted at center, white and black beaded ear loops, four necklaces, silver bracelet, ruffled blouse or dress top, white and blac…k fur or shawl loosely wrapped around her shoulders, one delicate hand showing. Very mild uniform age-toning (professionally washed). Original lithograph - NOT a reproduction! Hayne Hudjihini or Eagle of Delight (ca. 1804-1822) accompanied her husband to Washington, D.C. in 1821 and so delighted those she met that she was loaded down with presents and King painted several portraits of her. She was thought to be the most beautiful of all the Native American wives who visited Washington. Unfortunately, she died of measles shortly after her return home. A portrait of her hangs in the White House Library. When leaders of various tribes came to visit President Monroe, McKenney, Superintendent of Indian Affairs and a defender of Native American interests, commissioned artist Charles Bird King to paint portraits of the delegates in their choice of dress. Most of King's original paintings subsequently burned in a fire at the Smithsonian. The lithographs in McKenney and Hall's publication are the only extant record of the likenesses of many of the prominent Native American leaders of the nineteenth century. In our lithograph the two small silver portions on the nose of the sitter have combined with sulfur and oxydized to black. In other copies these portions are white. See: Howes M129.

Very mild uniform age-toni…ng (professionally washed, verso of upper left corner with Japanese tissue repair). Original lithograph - NOT a reproduction! Wa-Na-Ta (ca. 1795-1848) was an influential Sioux (Yanktona, on the Minnesota River) leader who fought against the Americans in the War of 1812, even leading a charge on Fort Sandusky, whence his nickname. For his exceptional heroism he was received at the English court and promoted to Captain. After the war, however, he sided with the U.S. In 1825, he signed the Treaties of Fort Pierre and Prairie du Chien, which established peace and territorial boundaries between the Sioux, Chippewas, Sac and Foxes, and Ioways. He was murdered by his people, who were upset with his leadership. Major Stephen H. Long met Wa-Na-Ta in 1835 and commented: "We had never seen a nobler face, or a more impressive character." When leaders of various tribes came to visit President Monroe in 1821, McKenney, Superintendent of Indian Affairs and a defender of Native American interests, commissioned artist Charles Bird King to paint portraits of the delegates in their choice of dress.

The sheet measures about 13¼" x 16¼" to the inside edges of the inner mat, glazed and framed to 25¼" x 29¼". An impressive portrait from Thomas McKenney and James Hall's three-volume classic *History of the Indian…Tribes of North America*, renowned for its faithful portraits of Native Americans drawn after paintings by the artist Charles Bird King. McKenney, U.S. superintendent of Indian trade in Georgetown, conceived the idea of developing a government collection of portraits of prominent Native Americans who visited Washington. He engaged King, a Washington portraitist who had studied under Benjamin West, to paint the portraits. King painted from life Native American leaders of at least 20 tribes, which were handsomely reproduced as hand-colored lithographs in the large folio edition of the *History of the Indian Tribes of North America*, published from 1837 through 1844. An impressive, well-preserved portrait in a handsome wood frame.
