Basket Mania: Collecting Native American Basketry in the Late Victorian Era

The most recent exhibition of Native American art features 69 baskets collected during the late Victorian era when a craze for Native basketry swept the United States.  Ranging in size from an extremely large Apache Indian storage jar to a Pomo Indian basket as small as a tiny seed, the baskets on view in this installation were collected during the years when basket mania seized the nation.
