Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Coat made in a European cut from unsmoked deer hide, owned by St. Louis fur trader Honoré Picotte. It is decorated with very finely executed porcupine quillwork, with quill-wrapped epaulettes and border fringe with box designs. This style of curvilinear floral design has been attributed to Eastern Dakota, Métis and Sioux-Métis artists, although Picotte’s career with the American Fur Company, most significantly managing Fort Pierre along the Missouri, provides the most context for this coat. Picotte’s Lakota wife, Wanbdi Autopewin (Eagle Woman That All Look At, 1820-1888), also known as Mathilda Picotte Galpin, was an artist and may have made this coat for him sometime between the 1830s and 1850s.
