Evening Camp Crow Reservation; (Ration Day); [Evening on the Little Big Horn, Crow Camp, Ration Day]

A painting of approximately this title and exactly this size was exhibited in Cincinnati's Traxel's Art Galleries in April 1923. The style, palette and composition, however, appear to coincide with works done at the Cheyenne Reservation in about 1904.  See for example, #569.
