"Mó-sho-la-túb-bee, He Who Puts Out and Kills, Chief of the Tribe" is a significant portrait by the American painter George Catlin, depicting a notable Native American figure from the early 19th century. Created in 1834, this artwork is part of Catlin's broader endeavor to capture the likenesses and cultures of Native American peoples, a project he undertook during several trips to the Western United States beginning in the 1830s. George Catlin, born in 1796 and passing in 1872, was an artist and writer who dedicated much of his career to documenting the appearances and customs of Indigenous peoples, aiming to preserve what he perceived as their vanishing ways of life in the face of expanding European-American settlement.

The subject of the painting, Mó-sho-la-túb-bee, was a chief of the Choctaw tribe, known for his leadership and valor. The title "He Who Puts Out and Kills" signifies his prowess and esteemed status within his community. Catlin's portrayal is notable for its dignified representation, capturing the chief's strength and character, and is an important historical record of Mó-sho-la-túb-bee's appearance and attire. The painting is characterized by Catlin's attention to detail and his desire to present his subjects with respect and authenticity.

This work is part of Catlin's Indian Gallery, a collection of over 500 paintings produced during his travels. The gallery served as a traveling exhibition in the 19th century, aiming to educate the American and European publics about Native American cultures and the impacts of U.S. westward expansion. Today, Catlin's portraits, including "Mó-sho-la-túb-bee, He Who Puts Out and Kills, Chief of the Tribe," are invaluable for their artistic merit and as historical documents that contribute to our understanding of Native American history, culture, and the early interactions between Indigenous peoples and European settlers. The painting is preserved and displayed in a prominent institution, continuing to offer insights into the life of Mó-sho-la-túb-bee and the broader context of Catlin's work and the era he chronicled.
