- Lot Description
The set of thirty-one facsimile prints, 1989, from the edition 950.
All 15 x 21 1/2 in. (sight), 23 1/4 x 30 in. (frame).
Note: The Abbeville Press facsimile publication of George Catlin's North American Indian Portfolio received recognition from the Library of Congress as a significant collection of work documenting Native American cultures. Catlin published the first two issues of the North American Indian Portfolio simultaneously in 1844. The first issue was hand-colored, and the second had tinted plates. Catlin originally envisioned publishing a series of portfolios, each with its own theme. The first series was the only one that was ever published, and its production proved to be so taxing both financially and personally that Catlin sold both the publication and distribution rights. Catlin's North American Indian Portfolio contains the results of his years of painting, living, and traveling among the Great Plains Indians.
This portfolio is a reprint of the 1845 edition (twenty-five plates), and includes six additional plates from the 1844 edition.
