The Trail of Tears: A Dark Chapter in American History (1838). This oil painting by Robert Lindneux poignantly captures the sorrow and despair of the Cherokee Nation as they were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands in Georgia, as documented in this agreement from 1831. In response to this injustice, the Cherokee Nation published an anti-removal tract, yet the devastating journey westward continued, as depicted in these wood engravings from American textbooks of the time, painful reminder of the forced displacement and loss of Native American lands and culture.
