This painting, “Negotiating the Release,” by Lakota artist Del Iron Cloud, was commissioned by Dr. Paul Carpenter in 1997. It depicts the Fool Soldiers (right) negotiating with Chief White Lodge for the release of white women and children he took captive during the 1862 conflict in Minnesota. Proceeds from the sale of prints continue to support scholarships for descendants of the Fool Soldiers. The painting is one of the scenes in the Sea of Grass exhibit at the Timber Lake Museum.
