"Chief Spotted Tail Shooting Buffalo" is a notable lithograph created by the German-American artist Louis Maurer in 1867. Maurer, who was born in Biebrich, Germany, in 1832 and emigrated to the United States in 1851, became a prominent figure in the American art scene, particularly known for his work with Currier and Ives, a famous printmaking firm. This lithograph is one of the many works that reflect Maurer's keen interest in depicting scenes from the American frontier and Native American life.

The artwork captures a dynamic and culturally significant moment, portraying Chief Spotted Tail, a renowned leader of the Brulé Lakota Sioux, engaged in the act of hunting buffalo. Spotted Tail, whose Lakota name was Sinte Gleska, was a prominent figure in the mid-19th century, known for his leadership and efforts to secure peace and better living conditions for his people during a time of intense conflict and upheaval.

Maurer's lithograph is celebrated for its detailed and vivid representation of the hunt, showcasing his skill in capturing movement and the intensity of the scene. The image not only serves as a historical document but also as a piece of art that conveys the cultural practices and the environment of the Plains Indians. The lithograph is part of a larger body of work by Maurer that includes various depictions of Native American life, frontier scenes, and other aspects of 19th-century American life.

"Chief Spotted Tail Shooting Buffalo" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its role in documenting and preserving the history and culture of Native American tribes during a period of significant change. The lithograph remains an important piece for both art historians and those interested in the history of the American West.
