Buffalo By Design - Got Ink Authentics

In an allegorical scene that reflects hunters' late 1800's near-extermination of the American bison from the western plains, a male Native American Indian on horseback thrusts his spear to cause the death of the last buffalo and the end of an era. Bierstadt was revered for his romanticized landscapes of the then newly accessible West. The German-born, American artist's final great western painting, this grande work was created with an almost glowing light technique known as luminism.
