ER Challenge: Week 7 ArchiveGrid and CAMIO

1.Useful hint about using the tilde and a number for a proximity search.
There are 2 items at Cornell University Library, the card and an envelope. Location details within the library are given.
Sitting Bull's native names were new to me. Interesting that, although he obviously was a warrior and opposed the white encroachment upon Indian civilization, he toured with Buffalo Bill's Wild West show before he was killed.
Typed in "Hugh Glass" and received 7 results, 3 of whom I'd have expected as all wrote of the man and the legend. The Neihardt collection is housed at University of Nebraska-Lincoln; McClung and Manfred collections are at the Andersen Library, Uof M-Twin Cities. Couldn't get the Neihardt collection to open; perhaps it would have if I'd waited long enough, but was really slow so gave up. The McClung collection contains the author's manuscript for Hugh Glass, Mountain Man (winner of the Pasque award back in the 90's).
2.CAMIO
a. Paul Revere was, of course, a noted silversmith, so there are lots of pictures of silver items he crafted: sugar bowls and urns, teapots, saucers, a salver (can't recall exactly what that is at the moment), a goblet (one of two), teaspoon, tankard--the man was busy, and good.
b.63 images of Sioux clothing, bags, pipe bowls, dolls, even a war club--yikes--and works of art produced by and about the Sioux. Clicking on each image brings up a description, title, subject and holding institution. Interesting that none of these is housed in SD, many in Detroit, Minneapolis, a few in Boston. Apparently, SD museums with Sioux artifacts don't have holdings listed in CAMIO?
c. Don't really have a favorite artist, but I always enjoyed the pictures Norman Rockwell so I searched for him and found 6 results. All but the first are housed in a gallery in Buffalo, NY; that first one listed is in Indianapolis. These are not the paintings I recalled from my "youth," and, indeed, all are dated from 1920-1930, mostly the 20's. The 6th work in the list is dated 1930 and has a lighter tone both in the actual color and the emotional tone of the image. Hmmmm, perhaps his style was changing--
d. Stating the obvious here, but it certainly could be a great resource for art and history classes, perhaps even composition. A boon for rural and remote places like Bison where students rarely if ever have access to works of art and materials with historical value.
e. I used the Sioux search, then chose 3 images classified as costume and jewely, a scalp shirt, gauntlets, and a pouch. The options to create a slide show with the favorite images, use the move function to arrange them as one wished (chronological, perhaps), and even compare one to another make CAMIO a real plus in a presentation. Zooming in on the images is cool. Then thought it might be cool to look at some of the silver pieces done by Revere so chose four items spanning from 1761 to 1795. Might be interesting to show to students, pointing to style changes over the years.
