Good Hunter, a Warrior

“The Senecas were one of the most numerous and effective tribes, constituting the compact called the ‘Six Nations;’ which was a confederacy formed by six tribes, who joined in a league as an effective mode of gaining strength, and preserving themselves by combined efforts which would be sufficiently strong to withstand the assaults of neighbouring tribes, or to resist the incursions of white people in their country.” George Catlin probably painted Good Hunter in Washington, D.C., in February 1831. (Catlin, Letters and Notes, vol. 2, no. 47, 1841; reprint 1973)
