"Indians Experiencing a Lunar Eclipse" is a painting by American artist William Rimmer, created in 1869. This work of art is notable for its dramatic portrayal of a group of Native Americans observing the celestial phenomenon of a lunar eclipse. Rimmer, known for his unique style that often blended elements of Romanticism with a distinctive American sensibility, captures the awe and wonder of the human encounter with the natural world in this piece.

The painting is characterized by its use of light and shadow, with the darkened sky and the glowing eclipse creating a stark contrast that emphasizes the spiritual and mystical experience of the figures depicted. The Native Americans are shown in various poses, some appearing contemplative, others seemingly anxious, which reflects the diverse cultural interpretations and significance of eclipses among different tribes.

As an artist, William Rimmer (1816–1879) was also a physician and lecturer, and his multifaceted background contributed to his eclectic artistic output.

The painting is a testament to Rimmer's interest in the sublime and the human condition, themes that recur throughout his artistic career.

The painting is part of the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, which holds several works by Rimmer.
