Description:

This print features at its center an elderly Cheyenne Chief, Two Moons, in what appears to be a deep conversation. Two Moons (Ishaynishus) was present at the battles of Rosebud, Little Bighorn, and Wolf Mountain. After his band's surrender to U.S. forces he became a government scout under General Nelson Miles, and later was appointed chief of the Cheyenne Northern Reservation. The lower left of the print has L.A. Huffman's copyright and is dated March 1913. The very bottom of the print is hand marked "Isha o Nishus [sic] (Two Moon) chief of Montana Cheyennes". Laton Alton Huffman (1854-1931) was among the few photographers to capture the landscape, Native Americans, wildlife, and ranching life in Montana in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Later in his life, he enlarged many of his earlier photographs.

Rating Definition:

Fine, the image and markings are distinct with a couple hairline creases/tears. The frame is excellent with minimal handling/storage evidence.
