- Lot Description
The lot features a fantastic beaded buffalo horn headdress war bonnet attributed to Sioux Chief Henry Standing Bear and from the ex-collection of Reverend Joseph Ward, Yankton Indian College Museum, Jim Aplan and the DuPont. This is a massive full horn headdress war bonnet comprised of Indian brain-tanned buffalo / bison hide with a trailer and two large buffalo / bison horns being wrapped with old Czechoslovakian trade beads and connected with old brass trade beads. The front shows a fantastic beaded brow band with Elk dew claw dangles as well as old strips of trade clothe and ribbon fringes. The piece shows sinew and trade thread sewing with hide glue construction. The trailer is painted with red minerial pigment ocher and shows several four-point morning stars, commonly seen in Ghost Dance Movement pieces. The tie strap has several old hawk trade bells. Truly a stunning piece with amazing collection history and well preserved. Provenance: Collected from Chief Henry Standing Bear from Reverend Joseph Ward who founded the Yankton College Indian Museum in Yankton, South Dakota and put the headdress on display there. It was in the museum collection until it closed around 1985 and the contents were purchased by Jim Aplan of Piedmont, South Dakota. Aplan later sold the piece to Mary Lou and Pierre DuPont of St. Louis, Missouri. Trailer measures 30-inches.
