Description

Extraordinary, lithograph, by George Catlin of his portrait of Osceola, just prior to his death in 1838. This maybe be … more Extraordinary, lithograph, by George Catlin of his portrait of Osceola, just prior to his death in 1838. This maybe be from a series printed mid to late 19th century as (copy) is noted on the rock, however this matches some reference prints I have found attributed to both an 1840s printing and an 1870s printing so I am just going by the provenance which suspects this is after Catlin’s first edition.

Though trimmed, it matches proportionally to the example held in the Smithsonian collection at the National Portrait gallery, and is presumably from the same era and series. Mounted on washi and framed archivally.
