Original Description:
Antique Original Native American Ledger Art Drawing. Authentic Ledger Art has become extremely hard to find and this Ledger drawing depicts a Cheyenne Chief attending a wounded Warrior and Companion while under heavy gunfire from nearby but unseen riflemen. It was most probably produced in the late 1800’s or very early 1900’s as many imprisioned or reservation Native Americans were given or obtained Ledger materials to use instead of the vanished buffalo hides that had been traditi...onally used to record their war deeds in pictographic form. These two individuals may be recognized as Cheyenne Warriors because each wears a red sash with white ends, which represent Cheyenne Warriors in full battle dress. These drawings were normally executed in ink and colored pencil and most still retain their vivid color today. This drawing is in excellent condition with only the expected yellowing from age. It has been professionally matted and is framed behind glass with a beautiful modern wood frame. The Ledger sheet is about 11”x 7” and the frame is 15 3/4”x 12”. A Rare and Highly Collectible Example of Ledger Art with a very compelling subject.
