Tom McNeely (Canadian, B. 1935) "Great American Chiefs" Signed lower right. Original Watercolor painting on Paper.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood Art Print Great American Chiefs accompanied by the five 32c American Indian Dances stamps issued June 7, 1996.
The American Indian. Iroquois . . . Seminole . . . Apache . . . Sioux . . . these are just a few of the Native American tribes and nations that developed their own cultures and ways of life long before the white man discovered the "New World." The Indians' history is as rich and varied as the histories of the many different peoples who later inhabited our land. Indian art, Indian values, reverence for nature, and Indian culture influence America even today -- and provide a rich heritage for all Americans to share. This magnificent painting depicts four famous Indian chiefs -- Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Red Cloud and Chief Joseph.
