Temporary Exhibition Gallery
Organized by the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, with the support of Ann and Tom Cousins, this exhibition featured more than a dozen portraits of Southeastern Indian leaders from the early 1800s, including Cherokee, Creek and Seminole people. Inman created the paintings in the 1830s for reproduction in the landmark McKenney and Hall publication History of the Indian Tribes of North America. Also included were prints from the publication and a number of important artifacts.
