Two Moons

Two Moons, a Northern Cheyenne, was one of three models James Earle Fraser used when he sculpted the indian head nickel. Two Moons was a survivor of the Little Big Horn. I was fascinated by the strength of character in his face and the hint of humor. I wish I knew what was the source of the humor, was it directed at himself or at the man taking his picture.

I am always reading the latest book on the Native Americans. The latest is "Empire of the Summer Moon". I find myself studying their culture and wondering how we will be judged.
