Original – At far left is Michel Tsioui (Teachendale), war chief. Center is Stanislas Coska (Aharathaha), second chief of the council. At far light is Andre Romain (Tsouhahissen), first chief of the council. All three wear traditional leggings and beaded/quilled moccasins in the woodland style. The coats are symbols of power representing their importance as fur traders and allies to the crown.

Reason: High historic and cultural value. The image shows three Huron-Wyandot chiefs from the Wendake reservation in Quebec Canada wearing a mixture of European-influenced and traditional clothing. Images of people from the Huron-Wyandot tribe are rare, despite having a long and important history in North America. Images showing Huron people with traditional attire are especially rare and important.

Support — Historical EV, if Chatfield's images are considered reasonably accurate. (Is file big enough?) — 844X1024) Sca (talk) 14:57, 30 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The images are definitely accurate and were painted from life when a delegation of Huron visited England in 1825. The image is 1,583 × 1,920 pixels which is within the acceptable range. MatGTAM (talk) 03:14 , 03 November 2014 (UTC)
