When this painting was illustrated in the New York Herald in December, 1906, it was noted that Sharp had copyrighted it that year. He exhibited it at the Fishel, Adler & Schwartz Galleries in New York that month. He asked a price of $1,500 for the canvas, along with companion  work, The Death Spirit. (#512) Only one other canvas, The Drummers, was priced higher, at $1,800.

Sharp was still trying to sell the painting a decade later. It appeared in a sale of Indian and Western Paintings at Cincinnati’s Gibson Hotel in January, 1916.

Sharp had a photomechanical print made of this work which he copyrighted in 1906. Sample in Stark Museum of Art collection.
