EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases a Native American travois, depicting the rich cultural heritage and traditional modes of transport. Created by an unknown European artist in the 19th century, this artwork is now part of a private collection. The image portrays a horse-drawn sled-like structure known as a travois, commonly used by Native Americans for transportation purposes. The travois was ingeniously designed to carry various goods or even passengers across different terrains. In this particular scene, we see a woman riding on horseback while pulling the travois behind her. A baby can be seen nestled safely within the contraption, highlighting its versatility and practicality. The composition beautifully captures the harmony between humans and animals in Native American culture. The powerful stallion leading the way exemplifies strength and resilience while symbolizing their deep connection with nature. This educational piece provides valuable insights into historical forms of travel and serves as a reminder of America's indigenous roots. It offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the ingenuity of Native American craftsmanship and their harmonious relationship with horses. Displayed against a backdrop of stunning landscapes from North America, this print not only celebrates our shared history but also invites us to reflect upon our own means of transportation today.
