Elk-Foot of the Taos Tribe. Eanger Irving Couse
Eanger Irving Couse (1866-1936) was an artist and founding member of the Taos artists colony in Taos, New Mexico. He devoted himself to depicting the life and habits of the Taos Indians, a pueblo tribe in New Mexico. He reveals the poetical and philosophical rather than the savage and warlike side of the Indians, and his skillfully executed pictures are full of sentiment.
