Gambling for the Buck
Légende
Stanley knew Indian cultures firsthand from his exchanges with the Iroquois during his upstate–New York childhood and his encounters with western tribes during his travels. Yet, he painted pastiches of Indian life that fulfilled viewers' preferences for good stories, such as this account of three men playing cards for the prize of the dead buck. John Mix Stanley (January 17, 1814 – April 10, 1872) was an artist-explorer, an American painter of landscapes, and Native American portraits and tribal life. Born in the Finger Lakes region of New York, he started painting signs and portraits as a young man. In 1842 he traveled to the American West to paint Native American life. .
