Lakota Warrior Portrait (Likely Sitting Bull)

This item is an unframed, limited edition print, likely a giclée or lithograph, depicting a bust portrait of a distinguished Native American man, possibly Sitting Bull, rendered in a watercolor-style aesthetic. The predominant colors are earthy tones of brown, ochre, and sienna, with accents of dark brown for hair and a striking red for a necktie/scarf and facial markings. The subject faces slightly towards the viewer's right, with a stoic and contemplative expression. He wears traditional attire, including what appears to be a hide or fringed garment and a bone or quill breastplate. A single feather, possibly an eagle feather, adorned with a reddish tie, is prominently placed in his hair, extending upwards and to the left. The artist has utilized loose, expressive brushstrokes, particularly visible in the background washes and the flowing elements of the clothing and hair, giving the print a painterly quality. The background is a stark, light cream or off-white, allowing the portrait to stand out. Observable markings in the lower left portion of the image include what appears to be a handwritten signature, 'L. Tayseon' or 'L. Tayson' (as per provided context), followed by a copyright symbol, and then the limited edition number '641/1500'. Another signature, presumably the artist's, is also visible. The print appears to be in excellent condition with no visible tears, creases, or significant discoloration. Its style suggests a late 20th or early 21st-century artistic production, focusing on historical or cultural portraiture with a traditional Western art influence. The quality of reproduction appears high, aiming to replicate the texture and fluidity of original watercolor.
