Original vintage travel calendar Blackfeet Indian Greath Nortern Railway. Text reads: Sundance - Piegan Chief - Glacier National Park Painting by Winold Reiss. A beautiful colorful print of Winold Reiss’s series “Route of the Empire Builder Between Chicago and the Pacific Northwest Via Glacier National Park” entitled Sundance-Piegan Chief-Glacier National Park. The piece features a seated Native American holding a pipe and is copyrighted 1941 by Great Northern Ry., St. Paul, U.S.A The Piegan are an Algonquian-speaking people from the North American Great Plains. They were the largest of three Blackfoot-speaking groups that made up the Blackfoot Confederacy; the Siksika and Kainai were the others. The Piegan dominated much of the northern Great Plains during the nineteenth century. After their homelands were divided by the nations of Canada and the United States of America making boundaries between them, the Piegan people were forced to sign treaties with one of those two countries, settle in reservations on one side or the other of the border, and be enrolled in one of two government-like bodies sanctioned by North American nation-states. These two successor groups are the Blackfeet Nation, a federally recognized tribe in Montana, USA, and the Piikani Nation, a recognized "band" in Alberta, Canada. F. Winold Reiss (1886 – 1953) was a German-born American artist and graphic designer. In 1913 he immigrated to the United States, where he was able to follow his interest in Native Americans. In 1920 he went West for the first time, working for a lengthy period on the Blackfeet Reservation. Over the years Reiss painted more than 250 works depicting Native Americans. The Empire Builder was the flagship passenger train of the Great Northern Railway (1889-1970), originally operating a steam powered service that was re-equipped in 1947 to a streamliner service; it was relaunched in 1971 when it was taken over by Amtrak and now runs daily intercity services between Chicago and Seattle and Portland. Fair condition, missing the bottom part, metal bar on top of the poster, tears on margins Country: USA, year of printing: 1930s, designer: Winold Reiss, size (cm): 55x40.6
