Travels in the Interior of North America: The Maximilian-Bodmer Expedition
Forty-one rare hand-colored engravings derived from the original 1834-1843 plates, the work of Swiss artist Karl Bodmer offers a rich historic look at interior North America and native peoples in the early 1830s. Bodmer created the source art for these plates during an 1832-1834 trip across North America with Prussian scholar-aristocrat (anthropologist and naturalist, too) Prince Maximilian. A small selection of related Native American artifacts of the period from Penn Museum's collection supplements the exhibition.
