Summary

Description
English: In one of his most famous painting, George Catlin painted Wu-Jun-Jon, an Assiniboine Indian, both before and after mingling with white men. In the "before" stance, the Indian is a dignified peace-pipe bearing warrior; in the "after" stance, he is a "corrupted" Indian who was abandoned dignity for vanity and his peace pipe for a cigar.
