EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Alfred Jacob Miller's "Bull Buffalo, c. 1837" a watercolor painting that measures 19.7x29.6 cm and is housed at the Joslyn Museum in Omaha, Nebraska, USA. The artwork depicts a majestic bull buffalo against the backdrop of a picturesque river and rocky mountains. The painting holds historical significance as it represents Miller's journey alongside Sir William Drummond Stewart and Thomas Fitzpatrick during their exploration of the American West in 1837. Accompanying Irish mountain man Fitzpatrick on his trapper expedition for the American Fur Company, Miller captured this stunning image along the Oregon Trail through old Nebraska Territory to one of the last annual fur trappers rendezvous in what is now Wyoming. With its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, "Bull Buffalo" offers viewers an immersive experience into North America's wilderness during the 19th century. It serves as a testament to both Miller's artistic talent and his role as an explorer documenting new frontiers. This piece not only celebrates nature but also pays homage to indigenous Plains Indians who relied on bison herds for their livelihoods. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in American history - one marked by discovery, trade, and coexistence with wildlife. "Bull Buffalo" stands as a remarkable example of early 19th-century artistry that continues to captivate audiences today with its beauty and historical significance.
