Frank McCarthy 'Warriors of the Northern Mountains' SmallWorks
With legends as great in scale as the landscape of the American West itself, the Plains Indians of Frank McCarthy's paintings thunder across the canvas, hunting buffalo, scouting war parties and protecting their territory. McCarthy's iconic style and expert composition bring these larger-than-life legends to life in dramatic works that have defined and inspired a generation of artists. With this legacy in mind The Greenwich Workshop is pleased to present Warriors of the Northern Mountains, a brand-new, never-before-seen release from Frank McCarthy.

Frank McCarthy 'ROAR OF THE FALLS'
“I had a good time doing this painting,” said Frank McCarthy. “It’s a combination of many forms of Western action. There’s the galloping of the horses, but also the rushing of the water and even the movement of the clouds above.”
Frank McCarthy was often called “the master of Western action” and The Roar of the Falls is evidence of his claim to that title. The painting showcases his artistic strengths in a thrilling image of Sioux warriors surging across Wyoming’s Yellowstone Territory. The dramatic action of the figures is emphasized by the careful setting of shadow and light. The Roar of the Falls is one of McCarthy’s best work and a testimony to the skill of a great artist.

Frank McCarthy 'The Taunt' Fine Art Giclée Canvas
In his long and storied career, Frank McCarthy earned renown for many things—his attention to detail, his insistence on historical accuracy, his first-rate storytelling ability—but none were more celebrated than his eye for design. “The Dean of Western Action,” as he came to be known, brought from his early days as a commercial illustrator an understanding of visual design that makes his action-packed paintings the finest of their type.
In The Taunt, a band of Plains warriors races across the prairie with their opponents in hot pursuit. The frenetic action of the story is made infinitely more exciting by McCarthy’s compelling design, which leads the viewer’s eye through the painting like a hawk tracking a hare. Any serious collector of Western art cannot consider their collection complete if it does not contain a McCarthy, who is truly an original American master!

Frank McCarthy "The Long Knives"
Greenwich Workshop Fine Art Anniversary Giclée Canvas
An army patrol scours the dry and dusty but spectacular canyon country in search of Indians, who refer to the cavalrymen as "Long Knives" for the sabers they carry. Though the men on these exhausting patrols rarely found Indians, they did learn the lay of the land and their geographic discoveries helped to create some of the first maps of the Southwest.

Frank McCarthy "In the Land of the Winter Hawk"
The Blackfeet Indians were mighty raiders, feared far to the south and east of their own territory between Saskatchewan and the Missouri River Valley. For more than a century, the nomadic Blackfeet were regarded as the most militant tribe on the northwestern plains. Even in the dead of winter, when tracks in the snow could betray their location, they stole horses or plundered other tribes' camps. Frank C. McCarthy's In the Land of the Winter Hawk depicts the headlong flight of two Blackfeet warriors. As the two men race across the frozen landscape, the only noises breaking the late morning stillness are the quick breaths of horses and riders and the muffled sounds of hoof beats on the snow.

Frank McCarthy 'Children of the Raven'
Grimly prepared, a well-armed party of Crow Indians advances across a mountainside overlooking a beautiful river valley. The Crow called themselves Absaroke, in loose translation "the Raven People." In the late 1700s, the Crow moved into some of the valleys around the Rocky Mountains. Their hunting grounds were rich with game, and so desirable that the Sioux and Blackfeet tribes regularly came to raid and hunt. The Crow had to be in constant readiness to defend their lands against superior enemy numbers.
Artist Frank C. McCarthy created heroic images of the American West that have gained legions of admirers among art lovers and critics alike. The Greenwich Workshop is proud to have published his art for decades. Whether his subjects are Native Americans, mountain men, cavalry or cowboys, McCarthy's paintings have an intensity that draws viewers immediately into the canvas.

Frank McCarthy 'Scouting the Long Knives'
In artist Frank McCarthy's Wild West his subjects often appear as heroes in action - riding hard, looking good and, inevitably, living to fight another day. Whatever the subject--Indians, cowboys or cavalry--there is often a commotion or disturbance going on. Leather flying, guns firing, sabers slashing through the air, wind tossing horses' manes - this is the action packed West of Frank McCarthy.
In Scouting the Long Knives, an Apache is concealed behind an anvil-shaped remnant of an ancient red sandstone formation, spying on a column of cavalry and supply wagons. Known to the Indians as "long knives" because of the long sabers they carried, the U.S. Cavalry patrolled immense areas of the Southwest. Sometimes the patrols were out for weeks at a time, with little or no sight of hostile Indians. But the Indians were always there, scouting the scouters. In a land that seemed so empty, there were always eyes that watched and waited.

Frank McCarthy 'Big Medicine'
Hunting the Rare White Buffalo
"Plains Indian legend holds that the white buffalo was such a rarity that even the Great Spirit was in awe of it," explained acclaimed artist Frank McCarthy. "The beast was valued by all the tribes, especially the Mandans for whom a good skin could command the price of ten to fifteen horses. Displayed in a place of special importance, the hide was considered Big Medicine. I modeled the white buffalo after a photo I took of the last known albino. The chances of a white bison appearing in a herd are one in five million, so I feel lucky to have seen one under any circumstances - almost as lucky as the two Sioux hunters in Big Medicine must have felt."
We are certain that McCarthy collectors will feel just as lucky to have the opportunity to own this stunning Anniversary Edition, printed on canvas to replicate the look and feel of the original.

Frank McCarthy 'The Challenge'
The Challenge shows the start of a confrontation between a Sioux warrior riding upstream and an enemy in the forest up ahead. He waves his coup stick in defiance at the adversary, who remains unseen by the viewer. The coup stick was important in Indian warfare. A coup was like scoring a point in a deadly game of war; if a warrior could touch the enemy with the coup stick it could be more important than if he killed him. McCarthy said, "In painting this scene, I began to think that it would be both interesting and exciting to see just who this unseen adversary is. So, immediately upon finishing The Challenge I began working on Whirling, He Raced to Meet the Challenge."

Frank McCarthy Lone Sentinel
McCarthy's dramatic images of the American West have gained a legion of admirers among art lovers and critics alike, and Greenwich is proud to have brought his art to collectors for the past thirty years. Whether his subjects are Native Americans, mountain men, cavalry, or cowboys, McCarthy's work has such intensity that each painting literally involves the viewer in the excitement on canvas. Although McCarthy is primarily known for the action in his paintings, this calm, peaceful, brooding image of a Northern Cheyenne guarding his village is one of his most iconic images.
War pony well concealed nearby, this sentinel squats atop a high rock outcropping that gives him a splendid vantage point, watching for the approach of hostile Native Americans or trappers who might menace his village's most prized possessions: the horse herd.
