Carte de visite lacking a studio imprint, with period, inked inscription on verso: Southern Ute Chiefs Shawanoh & "Wolf" with Indian Agent Maj. Head & Interpret. W.P. Godfrey. Although the location is unknown, this was likely taken during a treaty delegation, ca late 1860s-early 1870s. War Chief Shawanoh, also known as "Shavano," seated at left, was a Tabeguache Ute that served as one of Chief Ouray's lieutenants. A studio portrait produced by William Henry Jackson, ca 1869-1874, shows Shavano wearing the same long braids, military issue wool sweater, and peace medallion, suggesting that this studio view may have been produced at the same time by Jackson, although this cannot be confirmed. Condition: Top right corner of carte creased, corner and edgewear to mount.
