1930s Modernist Print by Hilaire Hiler: Indian with Bow in Fox Costume Artwork
By Hilaire Hiler
Located in Denver, CO
This vintage 1934 color serigraph (silkscreen print) by Hilaire Hiler (1898-1966) depicts a Native American figure dressed in a fox costume and holding a bow, showcasing a stylized feather headdress and bold black, red, and white color contrasts.
