CHARKES HENRY HUMPHRISS BRONZE INDIAN SCULPTURE
Charles Henry Humphriss (1867-1934, English) signed bronze "APPEAL TO THE GREAT SPIRIT" Indian sculpture. The sculptural work of Charles Humphriss tends towards Native American ritual subjects in which the artist is dedicated to portraying what he believed was a more truthful representation of the American Indian. In striking contrast to the commonly portrayed image at the time of the ‘savage’, his work sought to celebrate the more peaceful and spiritual nature of these majestic people.
