An exceptional lithograph from George Catlin's seminal North American Indian Portfolio (1844), this Plate 13 captures a dramatic buffalo hunt rendered with historical authenticity and artistic precision. Created on wove paper and inscribed by lithographer McGahey after Catlin's original composition, the print bears the mark of Day & Haghe, lithographers to the Queen. This museum-quality work exemplifies Catlin's pioneering documentation of Native American life and hunting traditions, offering collectors a window into nineteenth-century artistic and ethnographic achievement. A distinguished addition to any gallery or study.
