    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[&quot;Queen Anne&quot; style fashion doll dating from the early 19th century wears wrap-around skirt of extrafine brown broadcloth (typically only worn by wealthy members of fur trade families) decorated with multicolored tiny beads in a zig zag motif, a brocade waist with an undershirt or vest that matches the skirt in materials and motifs. The doll has a felt hat and birch bark purse as accessories and she is wearing deerhide moccasins with multicolored floral beadwork decorations. ]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This doll had provenance that said only &quot;Quebec.&quot; Consultations with experts and comparative collection research suggested the current attributions of Abenaki or Malecite from the Trois-Rivieres region, c.1800-1830.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This painting depicts a group of Anishinaabek sitting around a campfire with several domed wigwams nearby. The woman of the group wears a blue shortgown over a black skirt. The Sault rapids are in the background. Sault Ste. Marie is at the intersection of Northern and Southern styles, yet most evidence points to a preference for the Southern Style.]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[&quot;The Sault St. Marie is situated at the lower extremity of Lake Superior, where it debouches into the river St. Marie, in its course to Lake Huron: having in this part of the river a considerable fall, for about a mile and a half in length,it soon becomes a foaming torrent, down which, however, canoes, steered by practised guides, ordinarily descend safely, although with terrific violence. Sometimes, indeed, the venture is fatal to the bark and its occupants.&quot; &quot;I took a sketch of the rapids above alluded to, from the American side. There is a small town called the Sault St. Marie, on the American side, containing 700 or 800 inhabitants, with a well-built garrison, prettily situated on the river’s bank. On the Canadian side, about half a mile direct across, the Hudson’s Bay Company have a trading establishment, and the Custom House officer, Mr. Wilson, a tolerably handsome house.&quot; (Paul Kane, &quot;Wanderings of an Artist,&quot; 1859:45–46). From this description, I have used the current location of the Mission Indian Point historic marker for the coordinates. It is not possible to identify the exact location of the view, but it does not make a difference in terms of the style distribution.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:subject><![CDATA[strap dress]]></dcterms:subject>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This painting depicts a woman seated on the ground leaning against a tree with a cradleboard and infant leaning on a stand nearby. There are a knife case and birchbark basket on the ground next to the mother and baby. In the background is a river with two short waterfalls and a cliff face behind. The woman&#039;s posture is totally inappropriate as she sits with her legs crossed, an Anishinaabe man&#039;s posture. She is wearing a strap dress ensemble, including a dress, sleeves, belt, leggings and moccasins. The sleeve arrangement is very accurately depicted, but the color of the dress is tan, which is likely the artist&#039;s creative insertion designed to imitate hide.]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[&quot;By way of passing the time, I took my gun and strolled up the river, accompanied by the guide, and fell in with a solitary Sotto woman and child sitting under a tree. She was quite alone, as her husband had gone up the river fishing in the morning. She did not appear to be at all alarmed or confused at our approach, and freely entered into conversation with the guide, to whom she told her name, Caw-kee-ka-keesh-e-ko, “The Constant Sky.” Tempted by the beauty of the scene, and she seeming to be in no wise unwilling, I sketched her likeness and the surrounding landscape with considerable care.&quot; (Paul Kane, &quot;Wanderings of an Artist,&quot; 1859:438).  Research conducted by Ian MacLaren reveals another painting of the same subject in a private collection that depicts the dress in blue trade cloth, which would be consistent with the trends of the time and place. This version, oil on paper, appears to be the model upon which the ROM version was made. There is another version of The Constant Sky in the Stark Museum that is almost identical to the one at the ROM.]]></dcterms:abstract>
