"MA-KA-TAI-ME-SHE-KIA-KIAH" "Black Hawk A Saukie Brave" (printed under image) is one of the more attractive and striking McKenney & Hall folios, and consequently more rare and difficult to acquire. The Saukie tribe (or correctly spelled "Sauk") were originally located in the Green Bay Wisconsin region in the 18th century but later moved West to Iowa. They were part of the Algonquin language group. Of note; famous olympic champion Jim Thorpe descended from this tribe. This example is in excellent and all original condition with no touch up, tears, or repairs of any kind; in bright crisp colors of red, blue, white silver, facial brown characteristics and the entire folio page intact (see image). Inscribed and "Published by F.W. Greenough, Phila" "Drawn Printed and Coloured at L.T. Bowen's Lithographic Establishment No. 94 Walnut St". Also, "Entered according to act of Congress in the year 1836 by F.W. Greenough in the clerks office of the district court of the eastern district of Penn". The lithograph is mounted in a lovely 19th century solid wood gilt decorated original frame (see images). Of historical context: note the medallion hanging around the neck of the Indian Chief. It is the "Presidential Indian Peace Medal...

Ottoman Costume Prints Pair, Imam & Court Official, Hand-Colored 1749 A refined and visually striking pair of 18th-century hand-colored engravings depicting figures from the Ottoman Empire, dated 1749. These elegant costume plates present, on one sheet, an Imam of the Great Mosque, richly dressed in flowing robes with fur trim and a distinctive turban, and on the other, a high-ranking court official or commander, posed with staff and ceremonial attire. Together, they form a beautifully balanced and complementary composition, ideal for display as a decorative pair. The engravings originate from a celebrated European publication documenting Ottoman court life and costume, produced during a period of heightened Western fascination with the East. Each figure is rendered with fine engraved detail and delicately enhanced with original hand color, capturing the textures of luxurious fabrics, the structure of ceremonial garments, and the dignified bearing of the subjects. The generous margins and visible plate marks further emphasize their authenticity and 18th-century origin. What makes this pair particularly desirable is the harmony between the two figures. The Imam, standing frontally with a calm, composed presence, contrasts elegantly with the more dynamic posture of the official figure, who leans slightly and engages the viewer with a sense of authority. The color palette—soft greens, purples, and warm neutrals—works cohesively, making the pair highly suitable for framing and interior placement. These prints are ideal for use as a statement piece above a console, in a study, or within a curated gallery wall. Their subject matter appeals to collectors of Ottoman history, costume prints, and decorative works on paper, while their aesthetic quality makes them equally attractive to interior designers seeking authentic antique elements. Note: Interior mockups shown are for inspiration only. The print is an original antique and is sold unframed. Condition is good for age, with light age toning, scattered spotting, and minor handling wear consistent with 18th-century paper. The sheets retain full margins and show the original plate marks. Colors remain fresh and attractive. Framing suggestions: These prints lend themselves exceptionally well to dark walnut or ebonized frames with wide ivory or warm off-white mats. A symmetrical side-by-side hanging enhances their visual impact, particularly in a refined, warm-toned interior. For a more contemporary setting, a clean gallery-style presentation with generous spacing will highlight their elegance.
