Welcome to the West North Range of the National Museum

Portraits, Landscapes, Costumes, &c;, and Representations of the Manners and Customs of the North American Indians.

I devoted eight years of my life (1832-1840) exclusively to the accomplishment of my design, and that with more than expected success.

I visited with very great difficulty, and some hazard to life, forty-eight tribes (residing within the United States, British, and Mexican Territories), containing about half a million of souls. I have seen them in their own villages, have carried my canvas and colors the whole way, and painted my portraits, &c., from the life, as they now stand and are seen in the Gallery.

The collection contains near six hundred paintings, three hundred and fifty of which are Portraits of distinguished men and women of the different tribes, and two hundred and fifty other Paintings, descriptive of Indian Countries, their Villages, Games, and Customs; containing in all above three thousand figures.

As this immense collection has been gathered, and every painting has been made from nature, BY MY OWN HAND-and that, too, when I have been paddling my canoe, or leading my pack-horse over and through trackless wilds, at the hazard of my life-the world will surely be kind and indulgent enough to receive and estimate them, as they have been intended, as true and fac-simile traces of individual life and historical facts, and forgive me for their present unfinished and unstudied condition as works of art.
