EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "[Little Bear, Cheyenne]" we are transported back to May 10,1875, through the lens of American photographer John K. Hillers. The image showcases a young Native American boy named Little Bear from the Cheyenne tribe. Measuring at 21.9 x 16.8 cm (8 5/8 x 6 5/8 in. ), this albumen silver print exudes an air of timelessness and cultural significance. Little Bear's gaze is both piercing and contemplative as he stares directly into the camera, allowing us a glimpse into his world. Hillers' skillful composition captures not only the physical features of Little Bear but also hints at his personality and spirit. The soft lighting enhances the texture of his traditional clothing while emphasizing every line on his face, revealing wisdom beyond his years. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of America's rich indigenous heritage and their enduring resilience amidst challenging times. It invites us to reflect upon our shared history with Native Americans and encourages dialogue about preserving their culture for future generations. As part of the Liszt Collection, this remarkable piece offers an opportunity for art enthusiasts and historians alike to appreciate Hillers' talent in capturing moments frozen in time. While its commercial use may be restricted, its true value lies in sparking conversations that celebrate diversity and foster understanding across cultures.
