Approaching Buffalo, 1837
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor print that transports viewers back to the untamed landscapes of the American West in the mid-19th century. Painted by Alfred Jacob Miller, this artwork captures a pivotal moment in history when Native American hunters stealthily approach a herd of majestic bison. The scene exudes both danger and reverence as these skilled hunters armed with bows and arrows navigate through the vast plains. With their bodies partially concealed behind rocks and tall grass, they patiently await the perfect opportunity to strike. The tension in the air is palpable as they carefully plan their next move. Miller's attention to detail brings every element of this wild western landscape to life - from the rugged terrain stretching into infinity, to each blade of grass swaying gently in the wind. The vibrant colors used in this watercolor painting further enhance its realism, immersing viewers into an era long gone but forever etched into America's history. This print serves as a reminder of our nation's rich cultural heritage and pays homage to both Native American traditions and wildlife conservation efforts. It invites us to reflect on our relationship with nature and reminds us that there was once a time when humans lived more harmoniously with it. Displayed at Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, USA, "Approaching Buffalo, 1837" continues to captivate audiences today by offering an intimate glimpse into North America's past – where man coexisted alongside mighty beasts on untouched lands.
