On paper, Mato-Tope himself recorded images from some of his battles. His portrait was painted by both Karl Bodmer and George Catlin who are said to have influenced Mato-Tope’s artistic style. “My sculpture of Mato-Tope is after a Karl Bodmer watercolor from about 1834. He stood proudly for Bodmer, adorned in his finest clothing with accoutrements that related to past victories of war…this battle was one that Mato-Tope painted for Bodmer.” – John Coleman

JOHN COLEMAN "KEOKUK, SAC & FOX CHIEF" (BODMER / CATLIN SERIES) BRONZE SCULPTURE
Est: -
John Coleman (Born 1949) "Keokuk, Sac & Fox Chief" (Bodmer - Catlin Series) Bronze Sculpture. Keokuk, a Sac and Fox Chief, was known as Watchful Fox and in 1835, he posed for George Catlin. Catlin wrote, “I have represented him in the costume, precisely, in which he was dressed when he stood for it, with his shield on his arm, and his staff (insignia of office) in his left hand. There is no Indian Chief on the frontier better known at this time, or more highly appreciated for his eloquence as a public speaker, than Keokuk.” Perhaps he gained this reputation during on a diplomatic mission to Washington D.C. When Black Hawk aligned himself with the British troops during the war of 1832, Keokuk refused to join him for which he gained recognition and support from the U.S. Government. After Black Hawk was defeated, Keokuk’s people were granted a large tract of land in Southeast Iowa. His grave and statue are in Keokuk Iowa. John Coleman has become a well-known Southwest sculptor of Indian figure work. John was elected into the Cowboy Artist of America in October, 2001, and is a fellow member of the National Sculpture Society.
