I've been wanting to pull together images of Native Americans from all my old history and children's books for a long time, and
I've finally done it. These pictures of Tipis were
taken from books which were written in the late 1800's to the very early
1900's, and they reflect the prejudices and stereotypes of that time. Several
of the image captions referred to these Native American men and women as "barbarians." Although
I am presenting most of the images and labels as I found
them in the texts, I would be wary of their accuracy. Still, I hope you will
enjoy the images of these Tipis and find a way
to use them respectfully in your artistic endeavors.
Be sure to check my Public
Domain Images often. More pictures are added regularly.
