Known as "the storyteller of the Native American people", Howard Terpning is perhaps the finest artist of Plains Indian history. Terpning's beautiful art, prints and posters get straight to heart of the feelings of those he portrays.
His clear palette and accuracy of detail record events and rituals as they actually were. You'll taste the dust kicked up by galloping horses, smell the smoke from the fire or feel the chill of a winter's day.
Preserving historical events in art, prints and posters allows the viewer to become a part of the past. Bringing to life the events of everyday life among the Native Americans, Terpning leaves us with a respect for the Native Americans and a desire to learn more.
