Cigar Store Indian

Harry Mann Waddell

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture depicts a Native American figure wearing traditional attire. The figure is adorned with a headdress made of feathers and a mix of green and light brown clothing accented with decorative patterns. A large circular pendant hangs around the figure's neck, and the figure stands upright holding a staff, with a small pouch hanging from the belt. The sculpture appears to be painted in vibrant colors, predominantly green and earthy tones, likely on a wood or resin material. It rests on a rectangular base.
