| Notes | Although he much preferred urban life and domestic comforts, Beard used a western journey in 1866 to inspire later paintings such as Deer on the Prairie. The vastness of the prairie and the drama of atmospheric conditions form the backdrop for his depiction of animal life. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
