"Portrait of Mar Ko Me Te A Menomene Brave" is a significant work by the American artist Charles Bird King, renowned for his detailed and evocative portraits of Native American leaders and dignitaries during the early 19th century. Created in the 1820s, this portrait is part of a larger collection commissioned by the United States government to document the appearance and attire of Native American leaders who visited Washington, D.C. as part of diplomatic missions.

Charles Bird King, born in 1785, was a prominent portrait artist who studied under the famous American painter Benjamin West in London. Upon returning to the United States, King established himself in Washington, D.C., where he became the go-to artist for portraits of Native American leaders. His works are celebrated for their meticulous attention to detail and their ability to capture the dignity and individuality of his subjects.

The portrait of Mar Ko Me Te A Menomene Brave is a striking example of King's skill in rendering the complex and rich cultural attire of his subjects. The painting depicts Mar Ko Me Te, a member of the Menominee tribe, adorned in traditional clothing that includes intricate beadwork, feathers, and other culturally significant adornments. King's use of color and texture not only highlights the craftsmanship of the attire but also conveys a sense of the subject's status and identity within his community.

This portrait, like many of King's works, serves as an important historical document, providing insight into the appearance and dress of Native American leaders during a period of significant interaction and negotiation between Native American tribes and the United States government. The painting is part of the collection at the Smithsonian American Art Museum, where it continues to be a valuable resource for historians, art enthusiasts, and the general public interested in the cultural heritage and history of Native American peoples.
