John Ridge, A Cherokee Indian & Interpreter Lithograph with Applied Watercolor
Located in Soquel, CA
1838 John Ridge A Cherokee Indian and Interpreter Lithograph with Applied Watercolor The lithograph depicts John Ridge, a Cherokee interpreter, by Charles Bird King (American, 1785 - 1862), published 1838. Compared to other indian portraits in tribal regalia, King's rendering of John Ridge appears to be different. King portrayed John Ridge in Anglo-American clothing, sitting at a desk with a document and pen in hand—hinting at Ridge’s education and career as tribal leader and politician. King was known for his realistic and sensitive renderings of his sitters, and his ability to capture their physical features and attire with dignity and attention to detail. Condition: Good; tonal aging due to age; previous mat tonal aging marks Presented in new conservation mat Paper size: 19.75"H X 14"W Image size: 15"H x 10"W Mat size:24"H x 16"W John Ridge received his education at Foreign Mission School in Cornwall, Connecticut and served as clerk of the Cherokee National Council.
