I’ve always liked Catlin and Homer. Haven’t seen Turner before, very nice. Thanks for posting!

Turner was a Paris-trained painter, very talented, but he never forgot where he came from. I love his light - it's warm and gritty at the same time.

Catlin was a genius at what he did - miniaturist-style portraits. I got to see the exhibition at the little museum just catty-corner from the White House a few years ago -- drove my family crazy because I just meandered from Indian portrait to Indian portrait, staring and staring and staring.

The boy was good. Very, very good.
