The description states:
HIAWATHA AND MINNEHAHA STATUE.
MINNEHAHA PARK, MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.
This statue, immortalized by Longfellow in his poem “The Song of Hiawatha” is located just above Minnehaha Falls, a few yards from the beautiful Mississippi River Gorge.
—Hiawatha was a founder of the Iroquois Confederacy. Minnehaha, however, is fictional, from the poem noted above.
