This is an original oil painting on canvas. The painting depicts Chief Joseph. It was painted by Linda Compton in 1986. Chief Joseph gained notoriety as he famously led the Nez Perce in a fighting retreat against the U.S. government. The government was trying to put the Native Americans on reservations. The Nez Perce successfully evaded the government soldiers for three months in 1877 before finally surrendering. This painting is in good condition. It measures 26.25" x 20" and the frame is 30.75" x 24.5".
