About the painting
Long before the Rocky Mountains and Grand Canyon became tourist attractions, Niagara Falls was North America’s most celebrated natural landmark. George Catlin made several views of Niagara, and he exhibited a model of the falls with his Indian Gallery.

Five journeys into the American West
St. Louis was his base for the five trips and the steamer Yellowstone of the American Fur Company his first transport; he visited 48 tribes in all (other accounts say about fifty). On trips along the Arkansas, Red and Mississippi rivers, in Florida and around the Great Lakes he painted more than 500 pictures and gathered a substantial collection of artifacts.
