Sharitahrish by Charles Bird King

Sharitahrish by Charles Bird King


Washington, Washington, DC (DC), US
Sharitahrish was principal chief of the Grand Pawnee in the early 1820's (during the Monroe Presidency). His brother, Tarecawawaho was invited by President Monroe for a meeting in Washington (O'Fallon Delegation) but declined as he viewed it to be too great a condescension. Tarecawawaho instead sent Sharitahrish as part of a delegation to visit Monroe.

This painting was completed in 1822 by the artist, Charles Bird King and today is displayed in the White House Library.
