"The Death of Omoxesisixany or Big Snake" is a notable painting by the Irish-Canadian artist Paul Kane, created circa 1856–1858. The artwork is part of a body of work that Kane produced following his extensive travels in the North American wilderness, particularly in the territories of the Hudson's Bay Company, during the mid-19th century. Kane was an artist and adventurer who sought to document the lives and cultures of the Indigenous peoples of North America, as well as the landscapes they inhabited, at a time when these were undergoing significant change due to European settlement and influence.

The painting depicts the dramatic moment of the death of Omoxesisixany, also known as Big Snake, who was a Blackfoot warrior. Kane's portrayal is based on an account he heard during his travels, and it captures the intensity and violence of the encounter between Omoxesisixany and his Cree adversaries. The work is characterized by its dynamic composition, attention to detail, and the use of color to convey the scene's emotional impact.

As a historical document, "The Death of Omoxesisixany or Big Snake" offers insight into the conflicts between different Indigenous groups at the time, as well as the perspectives and interpretations of a European artist witnessing these events. The painting is also significant for its contribution to the visual record of First Nations cultures during a period of significant transition and upheaval.

Paul Kane's works, including "The Death of Omoxesisixany or Big Snake," are considered important for their ethnographic and artistic value, providing a unique perspective on the people and landscapes of 19th-century North America.
