Grouse Shooting on the Missouri Prairies

“In these delightful amusements, and with these pleasing companions, I have been for a while participating with great satisfaction; I have joined several times in the deer-hunts, and more frequently in grouse shooting . . .” The painting must have been a last-minute attempt by George Catlin to add variety to the Upper Missouri hunting scenes. (Catlin, Letters and Notes, vol. 2, no. 33, 1841, reprint 1973; Truettner, The Natural Man Observed, 1979)
