...Indian chiefs, buffalo chase, Old Bear medicine man, in the early American west...

 ...George Catlin's Indian portraits 1830-1836 in National Portrait Gallery. America was indifferent to his 300 plus Indian chief portraits. He took them to Europe where he exhibited them.  I was really excited to see Catlin's work here, finally. The Portrait gallery has many of his portraits, more than I could photograph because of light glare and a closed off section. ...more tomorrow....
