Beschreibung
The work was created as a continuation of Catlin's previous works on the life and manners of Native Americans. After several years spent with the Indians on the American planes, Catlin collected a significant number of paintings and engravings, which he brought to Europe, where he organized exhibitions and spread his affection for the culture and lifestyle of Native Americans. Shortly after his travel to Europe, three Indians visited London to give performances and familiarize Europeans with their culture. This visit lasted eight years, in which George Catlin and his western friends experienced numerous fascinating adventures.
