Support Awesome. I was probably going to nominate this myself sometime or another. I like how its not just a boring self portrait but shows him with his painting tools in the actual setting in which he would paint his subjects. MatGTAM (talk) 9:36, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
@MatGTAM: It's not a self-portrait. The painter is William Fisk. Armbrust ^{The Homunculus} 00:39, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Art critics could probably (and likely already have) talk about how the Native Americans are cast in the shadows, whereas Catlin is front and centre with good lighting, but that doesn't affect the EV here. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:58, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
