EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "CATLIN: CHIEFS ON HORSEBACK" showcases the remarkable artwork of George Catlin, dating back to 1834. The image depicts two prominent Native American chiefs riding on horseback, representing different tribes and cultures. At the top is Keokuk, a respected Sauk chief known for his leadership and diplomacy skills. His regal presence is enhanced by his traditional attire, including buckskin clothing adorned with feathers and an impressive headdress. Beside him sits a Crow chief, exuding strength and power as he confidently holds a bow and lance. Both men are mounted on majestic horses, symbolizing their connection to nature and their role as warriors in their respective communities. Their intense gazes reveal determination and pride. Catlin's drawing skillfully captures the intricate details of their clothing - moccasins, quivers filled with arrows - while also highlighting the flowing manes of their steeds. This early depiction provides us with a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of these Great Plains tribes during this period in American history. The Granger Collection has preserved this historical masterpiece from Catlin's Carousel Collection for art enthusiasts to appreciate today. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and dignity exhibited by Native American leaders like Keokuk and the Crow chief who continue to inspire admiration centuries later.
