Head Dress 1935

"Head Dress" is a 1935 colored pencil drawing by Michael Trekur, a notable artist known for his detailed and expressive depictions of indigenous peoples. The work showcases a figure wearing a fur-lined head dress, likely a representation of a Malecite person from the Algonquin tribe. The artist's signature, along with the inscription "Eastern Woodland Hall Case - 2-E. Life Size", suggests the artwork was created as part of a collection or exhibit focused on Native American cultures.
