German painter Hermann Herzog completed his art education at the Düsseldorf Academy in 1849 and immediately found work creating artwork for royalty, including Queen Victoria in England and Czar Alexander II in Russia. But the American frontier called to him, and he crossed the Atlantic Ocean and moved to Philadelphia. From there he made journeys into the West, where he was intrigued by the landscape and Native Americans. This work’s subject aren’t identified, but other similar paintings suggest it may have originated in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in northeast California.
