Katsina (Poli-Mana) c. 1890

A wonderful 19th century katsina known as the Volz Collection.  Volz was born in Germany in 1856 & immigrated to the US in 1876.  In 1892 he was living in Arizona at Canyon Diablo near First Mesa as a trader merchant and postmaster and collected katsinas from the Hopis.  Very little is known about Volz, except he was a trader on the Hopi and Navajo reservations from 1897 to 1910.  His dolls had a particular style.  In 1901 Volz sold 400 of these dolls, collected from the Hopis, to the Fred Harvey store.  See 'American Indian Art', Summer 2005 regarding his collection.
