Description

Group of seven figures. The central figure is George Rogers Clark astride a horse. Clark's torso is turned toward his proper right, with his proper right arm extended to the rear, but he faces forward. His proper left hand holds the reins of the horse. In front of Clark are three Native Americans. Clark's gaze is directed toward the Chief, who stands clothed in a blanket, looking over his proper right shoulder at Clark. To the chief's proper right, and slightly behind him, is a woman kneeling, clothed in a blanket. In front of the Chief is a warrior, sitting propped up on his proper right arm. Behind the horse are three of Clark's men, one squatting and guarding a powder keg, while the other two stand with rifles ready, keeping a close watch on Clark and the Chief.
