Thirty-two cdvs (27 by Whitney, 4 by James Martin, 2 by Benjamin Upton and 2 on unidentified mounts), plus three albumen photographs, one mounted on card stock measuring 5¼ x 4¼ inches, and two mounted on card stock measuring 6 x 4 inches. A striking and important group of Indian portraits taken by Joel Whitney in St. Paul, Minnesota, around the time of the Sioux Uprising of 1862. The Dakota War, or Sioux Uprising, was one of the last large scale attempts by Native Americans to expel white settlers from their territory. Denied rations and annuities promised by treaty in return for the forfeiture of the majority of their land, the Sioux decided that an armed revolt was the only option to save their people. Dakota warriors in Minnesota felt the time was ripe for victory, as more and more American men joined the Union during the Civil War, leaving Minnesota largely unprotected by the American military. U.S. Army regiments recalled from the battlefields of the Civil War defeated the Sioux at Wood Lake on September 23, 1862. In the weeks following, U.S. Army Colonel Henry Hastings Sibley arrested more than 2,000 Santee Sioux and instituted a military commission that found 303 guilty of capital crimes under legally circumspect proceedings. President Lincoln upheld the convictions of thirty-eight Sioux and ordered their execution by hanging at Mankato, Minnesota, on December 26, 1862, the largest mass execution in U.S. history. The present group of photographs includes portraits of five men who are identified as having participated in the massacre: Thaóyate Dúta (Little Crow), the Chief of the Santee Sioux who led his people into battle; PaHa Uza Tanka (The Great Scalp Taker), Te-He-Do-Ne-Cha (One Who Forbids His House), Marpiya Okinajin (Cut Nose) and Do-Wan-Sa (The Singer) - all of whom were executed. Also pictured are Ta-Tanka-Nazin (Chief Standing Buffalo), who argued for peace, and "Old Bets," a Sioux squaw reputed to be 120 years old, who was kind to white captives in her village and is arguably one of the most identifiable and most photographed Sioux from this period. Other identified persons in the group include: Ma-Za-Oo-Nie (The Little Bird Hunter); Can-Ku Was-Te-Win (Good Road Woman) and Anpetu-Sapa-Win (Black Day Woman); Winnesheik and other Winnebago chiefs in the prison at Fort Snelling (who, although non-combatant, were forced into the camp at Fort Snelling with their people and ultimately exiled to the Dakotas). In addition to the portraits of the Santee Sioux, there are thirteen additional portraits of representatives from various bands of the Chippewa people. Joel Emmons Whitney (1822-86) was a pioneering Minnesota photographer and businessman. Whitney learned the art of daguerreotyping from Alexander Hesler, and opened a studio in St. Paul in 1851. He continuously updated his techniques, innovating and offering new products. By 1855, he was advertising paper photographs, which were touted as significantly cheaper than daguerreotypes. In 1860 he introduced the public to the carte-de-visite, which was an incredibly popular format throughout the decade. Whitney produced views of the area, portraits upon request, and - perhaps most notably - portraits and images of the local Native Americans. Whitney had been photographing Native Americans in the area and those who came through the town on their way to Washington for treaty talks. In the summer of 1862, however, the Sioux Uprising spurred new interest in Native American photographs and gave Whitney a unique opportunity for his enterprise. After the Sioux Uprising, Whitney became the principal portrait photographer of those captured and held at Ft. Snelling. Other photographers represented include James Martin and Benjamin Franklin Upton. Little is known about James E. Martin. He is first listed as a photographer in St. Paul's business directory in 1858. He issued cartes-de-visite and stereoscopic photographs, including subjects related to the 1862 Sioux Uprising. Marti.…
