Native American Illustration on Board - 27x22. A mid-20th century graphic work, likely a serigraph or gouache on board, depicting a Native American warrior in a full eagle-feather headdress galloping on a horse while brandishing a long, feathered lance. The piece is executed in a stylized Western illustration manner characterized by flat fields of opaque color and bold black outlines, resembling the flatstyle tradition of the Southern Plains artists. The composition includes a tipi camp and blue mountain range in the distance, with a buffalo skull situated in the grassy foreground. The work is housed in a simple, mitered light-colored natural wood frame. The backing is a plain hardboard panel secured with nails and fitted with a hanging wire. No signature or artist markings are visible on the front or verso.
