...coming their historian." With immense energy he set out to chronicle every tribe, producing up to six oils a day. They vary greatly in quality, as one might expect. But at his best - as in Head Chief of the Iowas-Catlin's agile drawing combined with his near worship of Indian ways in images that, in later frontier art, could not be equaled for directness and compassion.

The two great themes of English art in the 18th and 19th centuries were antiquity and landscape. Both necessitated some form of travel-either taking the road to Rome or making the shorter trip into the English countryside, with painting kit. Oil paint in tubes made Impressionism possible, but that sort of packaging did not exist in the 18th century. Lugging oils through the vales of Kent or the gorges of Switzerland was messy, and watercolor-carried dry, in little pans...
