EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating ink-on-paper print titled "Retreat of Major Marcus Renos command" by Amos Bad Heart Buffalo takes us back to the historic Battle of Little Big Horn in June 1876. This artwork, part of a private collection and now available through Bridgeman Images, showcases the talent and storytelling ability of the artist. In this scene, we witness Lieutenant Colonel A. Custer's ill-fated last stand as Major Marcus Reno's command retreats amidst chaos and conflict. The intricate details bring forth a sense of urgency and tension as soldiers on horseback engage in battle with Native American warriors. Amidst the turmoil, one warrior stands out in the upper left corner counting coup with his bow upon a trooper. The image captures both the bravery and brutality that characterized this significant event in American history. Amos Bad Heart Buffalo's ledger art style adds depth to the narrative, depicting fallen soldiers, wounded troops seeking medical attention, and horses galloping away from danger. Through his skilled hand, he immortalizes not only an intense moment but also highlights cultural elements such as traditional attire adorned with feathers and headdresses. This print serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's past conflicts while honoring those who fought valiantly on both sides. It is a testament to the enduring impact that art can have in preserving history for future generations to reflect upon.
