Nayas Indians

George Catlin

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a teepee and a canoe near a river. The teepee is in the foreground, with its canvas fluttering gently. A canoe is on the water to the right, under a sky with soft pastel tones. Lush trees frame the scene in the background. A rack near the teepee displays items hanging from it. The ground is vibrant with the rustic colors of grass. The style is reminiscent of George Catlin.
