Karl Bodmer's Studio Art

By W. Raymond Wood, Joseph C. Porter, and David C. Hunt
(Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 2002. Pp. x, 164. Maps, illustrations, notes, references, index. $45.00.)

At the Peale Museum in Philadelphia, the prince viewed natural and ethnographic objects gathered during the 1803 expedition.
