The brave old Hendrick the great sachem or chief of the Mohawk Indians

Print of Hendrick, Tiyanoka, also spelled Theyanoguin or Tee Yee Neen Ho Ga Row, the great Mohawk sachem, half-length portrait, facing left, wearing European style military uniform and holding hatchet in his right hand and a wampum belt in his left. 'Hendrick' was one of four Mohawk Indians who visited England in 1710 and again in 1740. On his second visit he received elaborate court clothing trimmed with gold lace. This print may be based on a painting made from that visit. Impressions of this engraving were offered for sale in the November 1755 issue of Gentlemen's Magazine within months of Hendricks's death. Hendrick negotiated peace between Six Nations and Great Britain at the Albany Conference of 1754. He was killed during the Battle of Lake George on September 8th, 1755.
