Chief Joseph – Nez Perce – Archival Print

$495.00$1,250.00

Chief Joseph of the Nez Percé is widely considered to be one of the most important tribal leaders of the 19th century. He became close friends with Edward Curtis and this friendship was critical to Curtis’ later success in gaining the trust of numerous other tribes. Joseph’s pride, nobility and tragic experiences that he and his people suffered are all evident on his face. After eluding the U.S. Calvary for nearly two years he was finally subdued and proclaimed the words that became famous: “I will fight no more forever…”

Available in  20 x 24″ and 30 x 40″.

Description

Our quoted dimensions are for the paper size, not the printed image itself.

For ethical and aesthetic reasons, we do not crop or alter the aspect ratio of Curtis’ original images. All of our prints have a minimum border of 1 inch to allow for safe handling and framing. For instance, an 11” x 14” print of An Oasis in the Badlands will have an image size of 10-3/8” x 12

Photographed in 1903, the image was created using a high-resolution scan from an original Curtis photogravure. Prior to scanning, the vintage photogravure was professionally conserved to restore the print to its original appearance. After conservation the images are prepared and optimized for printing with pigment-based inks and 100% cotton paper to ensure archival stability and quality that aligns with Curtis’ original intent.

Prior to shipping, the team at Cardozo Fine Art inspects each print and creates an individual Certificate of Authenticity. Each shipment is carefully packed to ensure it will arrive in excellent condition. Please allow up to 10 days from receipt of the order to shipping.  We will notify you when your order has shipped.
