Painting Description
"Red Walker and a Companion Fleeing from Pursuing Crow Indians" is a notable work by Nupa Kte, also known as Kills Two, a Lakota Sioux artist renowned for his depictions of Native American life, particularly scenes of battle and hunting. This artwork captures a dramatic moment of escape and survival, portraying Red Walker and his companion as they evade their Crow adversaries. Nupa Kte's work is characterized by its dynamic composition and attention to detail, which is evident in the portrayal of the figures' intense expressions and the swift movement suggested by their poses.
The painting is a significant example of Ledger art, a genre that emerged in the mid-19th century when Plains Indian warriors and artists began to document their exploits and experiences on the pages of ledger books acquired through trade or as spoils of war. These ledger books provided a new medium for the artists, who previously painted on animal hides, tipis, and other materials. The use of ledger paper allowed for more detailed and colorful representations, often created with pencil, ink, and watercolor.
Nupa Kte's "Red Walker and a Companion Fleeing from Pursuing Crow Indians" is not only a work of art but also a historical document that offers insight into the intertribal conflicts of the Plains Indians during the 19th century. It reflects the artist's personal experience or oral histories passed down through generations, showcasing the bravery and skill of the Lakota warriors.
As an important piece of Native American art history, this work contributes to the understanding of cultural expression and identity among the Plains tribes during a period of significant change and adversity. It is preserved and studied for its artistic merit as well as its cultural and educational value, providing a visual narrative of the Lakota people's heritage and resilience.
