"Around The Campfire" is a painting by Ralph Albert Blakelock (1847–1919), an American painter known for his visionary landscapes with a focus on the effects of light and atmosphere. Blakelock's work often reflects his fascination with the American West and the lives of Native Americans, subjects that were influenced by his travels in his early years. "Around The Campfire" is emblematic of his style, which combined elements of Tonalism and Romanticism, characterized by moody, evocative scenes often illuminated by twilight or moonlight.

The painting depicts a serene nocturnal scene where a group of Native Americans is gathered around a campfire. The warm glow of the fire contrasts with the cool tones of the surrounding landscape, creating a sense of intimacy and contemplation. Blakelock's use of light and shadow, along with his distinctive brushwork, contributes to the overall sense of mystery and quietude.

"Around The Campfire" is representative of Blakelock's mature period, during which he achieved a high level of artistic recognition. His works from this time are noted for their emotional depth and technical skill. Despite his later life struggles with mental illness and poverty, Blakelock's paintings have been celebrated for their unique contribution to American art and have been collected by major museums across the United States.

The painting is not only a testament to Blakelock's artistic legacy but also serves as a cultural artifact that reflects the 19th-century American fascination with the "vanishing" way of life of Native Americans. "Around The Campfire" continues to be studied and admired for its aesthetic beauty and its nuanced portrayal of indigenous culture within the American landscape genre.
