American Painter, 1810-1874 1810?C74, American artist, b. Baltimore, studied under Thomas Sully and in Europe. In 1837 he joined an expedition to the American West and was probably the first artist to depict the Rocky Mts. On that trip he produced his most important works, chiefly studies of Native American and frontier life, valuable for their documentary detail. These sketches and watercolors were entirely forgotten for nearly a century until they were rediscovered in a storeroom of the Peale Museum, Baltimore.   Related Paintings of Alfred Jacob Miller :. | Trappers Saluting the Rocky Mountains | Hunter-s Brider | Snake Indians | Interior view of fort William | Trappers on the big sandy |
