History / Biographical
Henry H. Cross (1837- 1918) travelled to Minnesota as a young artist in 1862, during the Sioux Outbreak with the intention of creating portraits of Sioux chiefs who had been sentenced to death by the American government. During this time, Cross captured the likenesses of various Sioux leaders and American military leaders in his paintings. Cross also learned the Sioux language and became familiar with many of their local customs. Cross would later become acquainted with Buffalo Bill Cody, who he also produced portraits of.
