"A Mandan Tribal Dance Representing 'Day' and 'Night'" is a painting by the American artist George Catlin, created circa 1835. The painting captures a ceremonial dance of the Mandan people, a Native American tribe primarily located in what is now North Dakota. Catlin, who was known for his documentation of Indigenous peoples of the Americas, depicted the dance with a focus on the cultural significance of the Day and Night symbolism within Mandan traditions.

The artwork is part of Catlin's larger body of work, which aimed to preserve the appearance and customs of America's native inhabitants. In this particular painting, Catlin illustrates the dynamic movements and vibrant attire of the dancers, who are engaged in a ritual that reflects the tribe's cosmological views and the interplay between light and darkness. The dance, as portrayed by Catlin, serves as a visual narrative that conveys the Mandan's deep connection to the natural world and their understanding of the cyclical nature of time.

George Catlin's dedication to capturing the essence of Native American cultures during the 19th century has made his paintings an invaluable record of a way of life that was increasingly endangered by the westward expansion of European settlers and the subsequent cultural assimilation policies of the United States government. "A Mandan Tribal Dance Representing 'Day' and 'Night'" not only offers insight into the Mandan's spiritual life but also stands as a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage that Catlin sought to preserve through his art.
