Painted by George Catlin George Catlin (July 26, 1796 – December 23, 1872) was an American painter, who traveled extensively and specialized in Native Americans portraits of the Old West. |
- George Catlin's Indian GalleryGeorge Catlin (1796-1872) journeyed west five times in the 1830s to paint the Plains Indians and their way of life. Convinced that westward expansion spelled certain disaster for native peoples, he viewed his Indian Gallery as a way "to rescue from oblivion their primitive looks and customs."
