"Buffalo Hunt, Chase; Buffalo Hunt, Chase and Antelope Shooting" are a series of paintings by the American painter George Catlin, depicting the dynamic and often perilous hunting practices of Native American tribes on the Great Plains during the 19th century. George Catlin (1796–1872), an American painter, author, and traveler, is renowned for his significant contribution to the documentation of Native American cultures, especially through his vivid and detailed paintings. Born in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, Catlin's fascination with Native Americans began at a young age, and his dedication to preserving the cultures of Native American tribes led him to travel extensively across the American West.

The "Buffalo Hunt" series, created in the 1830s, is among Catlin's most celebrated works, showcasing the artist's keen observation and ability to capture the essence of Native American life and the symbiotic relationship between the tribes and the American bison. These paintings are particularly notable for their portrayal of the intensity and danger of buffalo hunting, an activity that was central to the survival and cultural practices of many Plains tribes. The hunters, often depicted on horseback, demonstrate remarkable skill and bravery, engaging in a chase that is both a critical sustenance activity and a rite of passage for young warriors.

In addition to buffalo hunting, Catlin's inclusion of antelope shooting in this series highlights the diversity of hunting practices and the deep knowledge Indigenous peoples had of their environment and the behaviors of different animal species. These works not only serve as a visual record of these practices but also reflect Catlin's respect and admiration for the Native American way of life, which he feared was in danger of disappearing due to westward expansion and government policies of the time.

George Catlin's "Buffalo Hunt, Chase; Buffalo Hunt, Chase and Antelope Shooting" are celebrated for their historical and cultural significance, providing insight into the lives of Native American tribes before significant changes to their traditional ways of life. These paintings are held in high regard not only for their artistic merit but also as important documents of American history, offering a window into the complex interactions between humans and nature on the vast plains of North America. Through his work, Catlin aimed to preserve the memory of these cultures, and his paintings remain a testament to the richness of Native American history and the enduring power of visual art to communicate across time and cultures.
