Golden Eagle by K Henderson

Golden Eagle is 40" x 30", oil on linen This painting is a continuation of my 'Top Hat" series. In the 1880's The Powers That Be in the United States Government would invite American Indian leaders to Washington. There they were given gifts such as clothing, flags, hats etc. The recipient would then use these items as they saw fit. This hat is decorated with parts of a flag, an emblem from a helmet, ribbons and feathers Available See my Blog for more Western Paintings http://khendersonart2.blogspot.com
