Description :

Print 1: Native American Man with Horses

  • Subject: A Native American man in a feathered headdress stands on rocky terrain, holding a rifle, with three horses nearby.

  • Style: This painting reflects the Western art tradition, often associated with artists like Frank McCarthy, Howard Terpning, or James Bama, who depicted Native warriors in dramatic landscapes.

  • Symbolism:

    • Headdress: Often signifies leadership or ceremonial status.

    • Rifle: Suggests a time period post-European contact, possibly late 19th century.

    • Horses: Represent mobility, wealth, and connection to nature.

  • Mood: The pastel sky and rugged terrain evoke a sense of solitude, vigilance, and strength.


 Print 2: Native American Woman in Dwelling

  • Subject: A woman reclines inside a tipi or tent, surrounded by traditional items like pottery and woven mats.

  • Style: This piece leans toward intimate genre painting, focusing on domestic life and quiet moments. Artists like Dorothy D. Tuthill or Eanger Irving Couse often portrayed Native women in reflective poses.

  • Symbolism:

    • Beads and attire: Indicate cultural identity and craftsmanship.

    • Pottery and mat: Suggest daily life, tradition, and the importance of home.

  • Mood: Calm and contemplative, offering a counterbalance to the action-oriented male figure in the first print.
