Joseph Henry Sharp is one of the key painters of the American West.
Born in Ohio, Sharp traveled and studied in Europe, before returning to the US to live in California and New Mexico. The father of the artists' colony at Taos, starting in 1912, he specialized in portraits of Indians and larger paintings of Indian life, some of which are now at the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
