Smoke Was Their Ally By Frank McCarthy

Smoke Was Their Ally by Frank McCarthy Eternally resourceful, the American Indian used every tool that nature granted him. When there was none, he improvised. Smoke was such a tool . . . and also a weapon. The Plains Indians set prairie grasses ablaze as a defensive ploy. Yet, for the very same Indians, the smokey shield could become the arrow of war. Here, Sioux warriors cover their attack by firing the grass. In this painting a Sioux Indian war party is setting a grassy knoll on fire to aid their attack.

Smoke Was Their Ally by Frank McCarthy is available as a Signed And Numbered Limited Edition Paper Print with a 15-1/4 x 23 Image Size for sale at $call for price unframed.
