The title on this sheet appears in both German and French, which suggests it was meant for European readers curious about the American interior. It depicts the mouth of the Fox River in Indiana, a waterway within the Old Northwest, a region that drew traders, travelers, and settlers in the early nineteenth century. The shelflist card links the work to a name recorded as "Bodmer, Ch.," possibly the Swiss-born artist Karl Bodmer, but the record does not confirm that attribution and gives no date. Until better documentation turns up, the maker and period should be treated as provisional.
