Moccasins c. 1890

This pair of moccasins, created by an A'aninin (Gros Ventre) artist around 1890, exemplifies the intricate beadwork characteristic of Native American footwear. The moccasins are adorned with geometric patterns in a vibrant palette of blues, reds, and whites, showcasing the artist's skill and cultural heritage. These moccasins, now housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, serve as a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of Native American cultures.
