This art print is made from an historical photo of Chief Tosh-A-Wa (also spelled Tosawi, or Tosawi) taken by photographer William S. Soule (1836-1908). The original photo was taken in 1868. He is wearing a Presidential Peace Medal.
William Stinton Soule, (1836-1908), also known as William S. Soule or "Will" Soule made his way west in 1867. At age 29, he was a wounded Civil War veteran looking for a way to improve his health. Upon his arrival at Fort Dodge in Kansas, he clerked in trader John E. Tappin's post store.
Soule's photograph of a scalping victim taken near Fort Dodge became his first published work.
William Soule left Fort Dodge for Camp Supply, Indian Territory, in the spring of 1869, and arrived in Fort Sill, Indian Territory, in late 1869 or early 1870. Fort Sill was a military headquarters and an agency for several tribes, including the Kiowa, Wichita, and Comanche. Most of Soule's Indian portraits were taken at or near Fort Sill, between 1870 and 1874. Soule died in 1908.
