Ralph Coe has collected American Indian art for half a century, forming a renowned collection that represents all regions and periods of American Indian art. This catalogue presents 200 works from Coe's remarkable collection. Featured are exquisite examples of prehistoric stone objects, button blankets, crest objects, masks, canoe and tipi models, dolls and figurines, woven basketry, tobacco paraphernalia, and a selection of contemporary works, all of which bring to life the vivid cultures of the American Indian throughout the centuries.
