Chief Plenty Coups Vision For Crow Nation - (16" x 20") - Original Painting

This is an original hand-painted artwork showing a young American Indian boy with thoughts of what to think of the white man. The life and works of Plenty Coups were of great significance to the crow nation as he was the last of the traditional Crow chiefs that led the tribe in its transition from the "buffalo days" to reservation life.

Chief Plenty Coups got his name from incomparable bravery as he was exposed to war at a very young age and quickly became a master at sneaking into enemy camps making coups and stealing horses.

In this picture, everything that chief plenty coups stood for was highlighted in detail. His fierceness, bravery, feathers representing a number of coups successfully won, and arrows for war were carefully placed in a war pack.

The history of the Crow Nation is represented in this portrait with elegant colors on a sturdy frame, durable enough to withstand the test of time, preserving the cultural heritage of the American Indian crow nation.
