Indians and Wild West

Indians as brave and fearless fighters, splendidly adorned with colorful feathers. Nature-loving savages on a buffalo hunt, amid rolling hills and on banks of pristine rivers.

Often the depiction of Indians in art is chided as stereotypical. It should be remembered that many images of Indians and the Wild West were created before photography would have been able to depict the actual living conditions of Native Americans.

The artists sought to convey information to their contemporary audiences that was not available anywhere else. It was important to them to show images of Native Americans that did not pose a threat to Americans. Early American artists who drew Indians depicted Indians and their territories at a time when they were about to be driven from them. Although many political agreements were signed only under duress by Indians, they were readily shown willingly signing cession treaties, as in William Penn's painting "Treaty with the Indians in November 1683." Other depictions, instead of fear of Indians, sought to evoke pity for a vanishing people - such as Joseph Wright of Derby's "Widow of an Indian Chief."

When Indians are romanticized as "noble savages," this is seen as an attempt to protect the Indian people so that they do not have to face war alone. Many portraits of Indians are supposed to show peaceful, conversational fellow human beings, who seem exotic, but who allow the gaze of the counterpart, return it and seem to look directly at the viewer. American George Catlin (1796-1872) called his portraits of Indians with tomahawks and colorful traditional painting a "collection of nature's dignitaries." He wrote:

"Art will yet mourn for these people when they have been driven from the earth. The artists of the future will then look in vain for another race whose costumes, weapons, colors, rituals, and hunting are so picturesque."
