Love of Chief Bacon Rind, signed in the negative and dated 1913, silver gelatin print, 10 x 8 in.; in original inscribed mat, gilt wood frame, 14-1/2 x 12 in.
Note: The artist presumably painted this portrait after the famous photograph (print included in this lot) of the Chief, a copy of which is in the Library of Congress, as well as many other historical societies and institutions. Presumably the print was published and distributed by the Burnette Love Studio. https://www.loc.gov/item/94511544/
