Created by Thomas Loraine McKenney and James Hall for their renowned publication "History of the Indian Tribes of North America" this print captures a pivotal moment in Native American culture. The scene unfolds on the vast plains of North America, where a skilled huntsman on horseback dons traditional attire as he embarks on an exhilarating pursuit.
