In 1851 Frank Blackwell Mayer, a talented young artist from
Baltimore, traveled to Minnesota Territory to attend the signing of
the Treaty of Traverse des Sioux between the Dakota Indians and the
United States government. "He went," notes Bertha Heilbron in the
introduction, "not to participate in the negotiations, but to
observe Indian life at first hand and to find subjects for his
brush and pencil... With a sure stroke he pictured the scenes and
the inhabitants--red and white--of the frontier; with a fluent pen
he described all that he saw through the sensitive eye of the
artist."
