Winter Camp of the Sioux

At the suggestion of Ernest Blumenschein, Dunton first visited Taos in 1912 before moving there in 1915. He gave up his successful illustration career in favor of easel paintings and was a founder of the Taos Society of Artists. Winter Camp of the Sioux was shown in the 1916 Taos Society of Artists exhibition tour and was the first major Taos painting in the PPHM collection.
