This pair of moccasins, crafted by A'aninin (Gros Ventre) around 1890, are a stunning example of Native American artistry. The moccasins are constructed of leather and adorned with intricate beadwork, featuring a striking blue and pink color scheme. The geometric patterns, typical of the Gros Ventre style, demonstrate the skill and artistry of the maker. The moccasins, now housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, offer a glimpse into the cultural traditions and craftsmanship of the Gros Ventre people.
