About
This white marble sculpture depicts the couple Hiawatha (the man on the left) and Minnehaha (the woman on the right) holding hands and gazing lovingly at each other. They are garbed in Native American attire, as seen by Hiawatha’s feathered headdress, their fur-lined clothes, and the moccasins on the couples’ feet. Lewis also highlights the muscular strength in Hiawatha’s arms and grip. Because she had to market her works towards a white audience, Lewis combined in her artwork her Native American heritage with Neoclassical style that her consumers recognized.

Hiawatha’s Marriage
We Offer High Quality
Custom Framing
We use the highest quality wood in our modern shop to create custom frames, frame your print with precision-cut acid-free mat board, and mount it behind a UV-blocking semi-gloss plexiglass to protect your art from the sun, dust, pollution, heat, and humidity. Then we add finishing touches like a wall hanging mount, wall friendly bumpers and a protective backing.
