Provenance: Bibliotheque Seminaire St-Augustin (Cap Rouge). A remarkable work indeed, and one to be distinguished from many contemporary 19th-century linguistic studies as it was conceived, researched, and published by Chief Joseph Laurent (Sozap Lolô) of the Odanak reserve. Rather than an external observation or study of the language, it is notable for being a self-determined effort to preserve Abenaki syntax, phonology, and place-names. Abenakis or Abnaki is an endangered Algonquin language spoken by various Indigenous peoples throughout regions of Quebec, New Brunswick as well as several of the New England States. Two distinct forms of the language are spoken, chiefly divided by geographic region, Western and Eastern. It has historically been spoken by the Algonquin of Northern Quebec, Mi'kmaq of the Maritimes, Maliseet of Northern Quebec and New Brunswick, The Passamaquoddy and Penobscot of Maine and New Brunswick. From the preface by Chief Laurent: "The primary intention, the chief aim of the Editor in publishing this book, is to aid the young generation of the Abenakis strive in learning English. It is also intended to preserve the uncultivated Abenakis language from the gradual alterations which are continually occuring from want, of course, of some proper work showing the grammatical principles upon which it is dependant.May this little volume, which will learn the white man how the Abenakis vocal organs express God's attributes, the names of the various objects of the creation: beasts, birds, fishes, trees, fruits, etc., etc., and how extended are the modifications of the Abenakis verb, be welcomed by the white as well as the red man, and its errors and defects overlooked with indulgence.".

Very good. Size 6.5 x 4.5 Inches. This is an 1889 Goplo photographic portrait of the American Indian Oglala Lakota Little Chief, a member of the cast of Buffalo Bill's Wild West, which was performing in Paris for the 1889 Exposition Universelle. Little Chief Per a biography shared by the Buffalo Bill Center of the West, Little Chief was born in 1851 and was a sub-chief of the Oglala Lakota at Pine Ridge Reservation and was next in authority to Red Shirt. From 1887 through at least 1892 Little Chief appeared in Buffalo Bill's Wild West, traveling to both London and Paris. While in London, Little Chief and his wife Good Robe had a daughter, Frances Victoria Alexandra. Buffalo Bill's Wild West in Paris William 'Buffalo Bill' Cody had often thought about taking his successful Wild West show across the Atlantic to Europe. In 1887, he received that chance, when the U.S. government requested the Wild West Show be part of the American Exhibition in London. The Wild West was an immediate success, enthralling crowds of thousands every night. The London run lasted from May 11 through October (with two shows a day) and hosted royals from across Europe, including Queen Victoria herself, celebrating her Jubilee Year. After London, the tour was extended and played twice daily shows in Manchester and Birmingham. After Wild West's return to the United States, it embarked on a tour of the Northeast, but Europe remained on Cody's mind. Then, in 1889, American government officials invited Wild West Show to be part of the American contingent at the 1889 Paris Exposition Universelle - the World's Fair that witnessed the unveiling of the Eiffel Tower. The Wild West set in Neuilly near the Bois de Boulogne. (As an aside, photographs exist of Cody and his Native American cast climbing the steps of the Eiffel Tower.) The encampment included a Native American 'village' of teepees, along with tents for Cody and the other 'cowboys', that covered over 50 percent of the grounds. The cast included Sharpshooter Annie Oakley, an assortment of cowboys, more than 100 Lakota from the Pine Ridge Reservation, and a variety of American wildlife, including bison, elk, and deer. Over 10,000 people attended the opening performance, including the French president. Publication History and Census This portrait of Little Chief was taken in Paris by Goplo in 1889 while he was there with Buffalo Bill's Wild West show. This is the only known surviving example of the present portrait. Two other portraits of Little Chief are part of the collection at the Buffalo Bill Center of the West in Cody, Wyoming.

10.2 x 7.5 cm. image, 11.6 x 8.6 cm. border to edges. £450 Contemporary print, framed and glazed uniformly in black wood, tipped in and matted within card window. From the superb collection of Limougeaud Ernest Brachet, with his collector's stamps on verso. Purchased by Julio Mario Santo Domingo for his LSD Library, with me, at the Grand Palais circa 2006-7. The skeleton on the subject's upper arm is beautifully executed, the rather naive Indian Chief in profile is derived from a much used Yank advertising trope. The sleeves and torso are densely packed with folky images. 230250.
