  • (en) City of Muncie« Cyrus Dallin was commissioned to personally supervise the casting of the replica, which was done by the Gorham Company of Providence, Rhode Island, and to provide on-site guidance for the mounting of the statue on an appropriate limestone base. The details of the pedestal, trees, shrubbery and flowers were carefully designed to enhance the visual impact. The statue and surrounding park were opened in 1929. [...] It has become a symbol of the city of Muncie. ».

After meeting with treachery and broken promises, after suffering continual defeat in armed conflicts, and being totally unable to halt the oncoming enemy, he seeks help out of utter hopelessness from some more just and potent power than mere man, either red or white; he appeals to the Great Spirit who rules the universe. With head thrown back and arms outstretched, the Indian pleads his case. This was one of the most profoundly stirring pieces of sculpture in its day. »

  • « Online Collections | Minnetrista Cultural Foundation », sur minnetrista.pastperfectonline.com (consulté le ) : « The "Appeal to the Great Spirit" has been described as one of the greatest pieces of sculpture of modern art, stemming from its simplicity and powerful message. At one time, it was almost as well known [as] the "Statue of Liberty." Countless reproductions, photographs, paintings and posters have been made, as well as poems and songs created about it. The warrior, his bow passively behind his back, sits stoically on his exhausted, motionless steed, with his head thrown back, searching the heavens for some sign of an answer to his request for deliverance. He obviously is aware of the futility, but retains his dignity despite his despair. »
