Cigar Store Indian, c. 1941 - A Timeless Tribute to Native American Heritage
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases the remarkable craftsmanship of Harry King's "Cigar Store Indian" sculpture, created in 1941. With meticulous attention to detail and a deep appreciation for indigenous culture, King masterfully captures the essence of Native American artistry. Standing proudly on its wooden plinth, this life-sized figure exudes an air of authenticity and reverence. Adorned in traditional costume, complete with a magnificent feather headdress cascading down its back, the Cigar Store Indian embodies the rich cultural heritage of Native Americans. The vibrant colors rendered through watercolor colored pencil and graphite on paper bring this artwork to life. The intricate carvings and delicate features are beautifully accentuated by King's skillful use of color and shading. As we gaze upon this piece at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , we are transported back to a bygone era - America in the 1940s. This artifact serves as a powerful reminder of our country's diverse history and pays homage to the indigenous people who have shaped it. Harry King's "Cigar Store Indian" is more than just a work of art; it is a testament to cultural preservation and artistic excellence. Its presence evokes admiration for both traditional craftmanship and native traditions that continue to enrich our nation today.
