Pride of the Cheyenne by western artist Howard Terpning

 
Pride of the Cheyenne by Howard Terpning.
 
Many today assume that the Plains Indian woman was regarded as little more than chattel, but, in reality, the social structure of many tribes was much more matriarchal than is generally supposed. Here the artist portrays a mixture of womanly confidence and tenderness in a Cheyenne, who wears an everyday buckskin dress typical of her tribe. The colorfully decorated cradleboard, formed by loving hands, is indicative of the strong affection the people gave their children. (The Art of Howard Terpning - Elmer Kelton)
