"Buffalo Hunt, Surround" is a significant painting by the American artist George Catlin, renowned for his extensive work documenting Native American culture in the 19th century. Created in 1832, this artwork is part of Catlin's larger endeavor to capture the lives and traditions of Native American tribes before their ways of life were irrevocably altered by European-American expansion.

The painting vividly depicts a dynamic scene of a buffalo hunt, a critical activity for many Plains tribes, including the Sioux, Blackfoot, and Crow. In "Buffalo Hunt, Surround," Catlin illustrates a group of Native American hunters on horseback encircling a herd of buffalo. The composition is marked by its sense of movement and urgency, with the hunters and buffalo locked in a life-and-death struggle. The hunters, armed with bows and arrows, are shown in various stages of the chase, highlighting their skill and bravery.

Catlin's attention to detail is evident in the portrayal of the horses and buffalo, as well as the hunters' traditional attire. The painting not only serves as a historical record but also as an artistic celebration of the Plains tribes' symbiotic relationship with the buffalo, which was central to their culture, providing food, clothing, and materials for tools and shelter.

"Buffalo Hunt, Surround" is part of Catlin's Indian Gallery, a collection of over 500 paintings and sketches that he created during his travels across the American West. This body of work was instrumental in bringing awareness to the richness of Native American cultures and the challenges they faced. Today, Catlin's paintings, including "Buffalo Hunt, Surround," are valued both for their artistic merit and their ethnographic significance, offering a window into a pivotal era in American history.
