content: This is one of several works in public collections by Frederick Gokliz, a Warm Springs Apache married into the Chiricahua and imprisoned with them in Florida, Alabama, and Oklahoma. Three pieces are directly documented to Gokliz, E270075 and National Anthropological Archives # 270077 by inscription on the piece and E385920 by the collector's catalog, all collected at Ft. Sill 1894-1897. Other works attributed to him on the basis of style are: E270076; 2-4817, Hearst Museum of Anthropology, Berkeley; and a series in the Ayer collection, Newberry Library. All are from collectors who were at Ft. Sill. Another set of drawings at the St. Augustine Historical Society in Florida by perhaps multiple artists includes images attributed to Gokliz. This set was reportedly produced after the Indian prisoners held there had attended a circus.
