The Lakota Wicitowa (Lakota Paintings) of Daniel Long Soldier are one of the purest expressions of American art. They are authentic, uniquely Native American and riveting; Sioux warriors count coup on Custer, Crazy Horse pursues Custer’s scouts and Crow Dog’s wife rescues a fellow Lakota.

Daniel, an Oglala Lakota Sioux, created these pieces on antique ledger paper. The drawing style and the pages from the 1800s immediately raise the question of whether we were looking at something created 140 years ago or today.
