Photograph of a Group of Indigenous Subjects including Ado-Ete at Fort Sill, 1890s

Descripción

An image taken by an unknown photographer of the Kiowa chief Ado-Ete, or Big Tree, at Fort Sill. The subject on the far left is identified on the verso as "Kowalty." The men are shown in a group with other indigenous subjects, likely mostly Kiowa, at Fort Sill. Ado-Ete was at this point working on the reservation as a Christian peace advocate and assimilationist, despite his earlier involvement in the Warren Wagon Train Raid, for which he had been sentenced to death before having his sentence commuted and serving only two years at Ft. Sill. Gelatin silver print measuring 6 ½ x 4 ¾ on larger mount. Very good contrast. N° de ref. del artículo List2014
