"Abdih-hiddisch, A Minatarre Chief" is a notable artwork by Swiss artist Karl Bodmer, who is renowned for his detailed and vivid illustrations of the indigenous peoples of North America. Created during the 1830s, this portrait is part of a larger body of work that resulted from Bodmer's travels with German explorer Prince Maximilian zu Wied-Neuwied. The expedition aimed to study the natural history and native cultures in the Upper Missouri River area.

The artwork depicts Abdih-hiddisch, a chief of the Hidatsa tribe (also known as Minatarre), and showcases Bodmer's meticulous attention to detail and his commitment to portraying his subjects with dignity and respect. The chief is illustrated in traditional attire, with specific emphasis on the cultural and ceremonial items significant to the Hidatsa people. Bodmer's work is particularly valued for its ethnographic accuracy and artistic quality, providing a crucial historical record of the indigenous tribes before the major impacts of Western expansion.

"Abdih-hiddisch, A Minatarre Chief" not only serves as a significant artistic piece but also as an important document of the Hidatsa tribe at a time when their traditional ways of life were increasingly under threat. This portrait, like many others by Bodmer, is critical for its contribution to the documentation of Native American history and is celebrated in various art historical and cultural studies contexts.
