  • Drawing on Paper , Probably Yankton Sioux, Ca
    DRAWING ON PAPER , PROBABLY YANKTON SIOUX, CA. 1881 Description: Drawing in pencil and colored pencil on paper of incidents transpiring in January 1881 involving Teton Sioux, Yankton Sioux, soldiers of the United States Army and civilians employed by the U.S. government Height 39.75 inches 101 cm Width 35.75 inches 90.7 cm Provenance: Lessard Collection – SD 982 Epic Fine Arts Co./Masco Corp. This drawing on paper, likely made around 1881 by an anonymous Plains Indian warrior-artist, presents us with clearly delineated graphic renderings of events that transpired along the Missouri River in northeastern Montana on January 2 and 3, 1881. The participants depicted include United States Army personnel, civilians employed by the U.S. government, the Indian inhabitants of one tipi village under attack, and another camp circle whose warriors seek to avoid a similar fate. The artistic style in this drawing is consistent with the biographical art tradition adhered to by warrior-artists during the Plains Indian Wars of the 1860s and 1870s and the early reservation period. This style differs significantly from the conventions of contemporaneous mainstream Western representational art. Some of its notable characteristics displayed here include: a flattening of perspective and no attempt to create the illusion of three-dimensionality; use of a bird’s eye view for taking in objects spread out across the field of action, e.g. the tipi villages; an absence of portraiture in the sense of attempting to fashion a realistic depiction of an individual; no attempt to convey a sense of photographic realism; and partial figures used in a kind of shorthand to 2 represent entire entities, e.g.

  • DAKOTA RESOURCES | the Sitting Bull Surrender Census, Standing
    Copyright © 2010 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. EPHRIAM D. DICKSON III Dakota Resources The Sitting Bull Surrender Census, Standing Rock Agency, 1881 During 1880 and 1881, Sitting Bull, his family, and members of the bands associated with him returned to the United States after a long exile in Canada, where they had taken refuge following the Great Sioux War of 1876–1877. Surrendering at Forts Buford and Keogh, they were trans- ported down the Missouri River to the Standing Rock Agency near their former homelands. There, a census taker visited the lodge of the famous Hunkpapa leader. Speaking fluent Lakota, the enumerator re- corded the name of each woman and child in Sitting Bull’s family, as well as their age, sex, and relationship to the household head. The cen- sus taker even noted how many dogs the family owned (they had two) and the approximate number of buffalo and deer they had successfully hunted in the past year (he reported 150 deer and 300 buffalo). For Sitting Bull and other Lakota leaders, the census enumeration was a new experience, one of many strange and often intrusive bureaucratic processes the Hunkpapas endured as they settled into reservation life. For officials in the Office of Indian Affairs, the census was an important administrative document, one that over time became a powerful tool in their ongoing effort to transform American Indian identities and communities. Today, early reservation records such as censuses, annuity rolls, and issue lists provide historians a rare glimpse of American Indian com- munities as they existed on the threshold of tremendous change.
