Description
This larger than life sculpture of the dying American Indian Chief Tecumseh was sculpted by the German artist Ferdinand Pettrich in the mid-nineteenth century. The chief is remembered for uniting various American Indian tribes and allying with the British to oppose the United States during the War of 1812. His death during the Battle of the Thames in 1813 heralded the retreat of the British and the surrender of the united tribes to William Henry Harrison, the future ninth President of the United States.
