  1. I love these vintage photos of native people. The interpreters is a nice addition.

    Love the bouquet below, too. Another painter I wasn't familiar with, so thank you.

  2. The Ponca leaders look formidable men, Teresa. But their story is a sad and disgraceful one as with all the native peoples it seems.
