XX [From the dust jacket flaps] The land that awaited German artist Friedrich Richard Petri on the Texas frontier of the 1850s differed greatly from his native Dresden in Saxony, Germany. Along with many of his countrymen, Petri and his family had immigrated to Texas in search of a new, freer life. Although Petri lived in Texas but a scant seven years before his early death, the legacy of his work—the sketches and paintings preserved in this volume— lends a sense of concreteness to a vanished frontier and provokes a feeling of intimacy for a moment long since fled. He painted sensitive portraits of his family and friends and recorded many homely scenes of pioneer life in and around Fredericksburg. He was especially fascinated by the natives of this land, and he sketched and painted the Indians with affection, good humor, and skill. His Indian works document clearly, precisely, and compassionately the physical appearance, clothing, adornment, and life of these diverse and colorful people. Petri depicted Indians very differently than the old and outworn stereotype would have them portrayed. Nowhere among his works can one find the fiendish savage skulking around the pioneer cabin, waiting for the opportunity to steal the horses, rape the women, scalp the men, and kill or kidnap the children. Instead there are Indians and settlers engaged in casual and friendly conversations, here an Indian child eating a melon, there Indian youths spraddled languidly on their ponies. Petri's works constitute superb pictorial evidence of the amicable relationship between German settlers and Indians, challenge the old image of what Indians were like, and so add another kind of dimension to the continuing reinterpretation of this nation's past and its peoples. In this unusual blend of biography, art history, conventional history, and cultural anthropology, William Newcomb assembles most of the available biographical data and weaves in a rich body of interpretive background material pertaining to both Germany and Texas.
