A cartes de visite portrait by Charles Zimmerman of Saint Paul, Minnesota, captures the Native American Sioux warrior Pa-ha-uza-tanka, known as "The Great Scalp Taker." The striking image features the warrior adorned with a head dress that prominently displays 16 feathers, each representing a scalp he had taken. Pa-ha-uza-tanka was a notable participant in the 1862 Dakota uprising in Minnesota. The portrait's vignetted style emphasizes the warrior's fierce and proud demeanor.
