content: Loose Cheyenne ledger drawings collected by Blue Eagle representing courting scenes. These pages are from a ledger book of drawings in the collection of the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, Oklahoma, cat. No. 4526.11. It was produced by a group of Cheyenne and Arapaho scouts at Fort Reno, Indian Territory ca. 1887 and contains many inscriptions identifying artists and subjects. On the basis of comparison to that volume, the artist of these works has been identified as Red Eagle. The book was collected by Neal W. Evans, post trader at Ft. Reno in 1887. Evans was also the collector of another set of Cheyenne drawings, Ms. 4653.
