This is an excellent fully polychrome painted Great American Buson Buffalo hide from Kiowa artist Dau-Law-Taine. Darwin Tsoodle Kiowa (Dau-Law-Taine) is a Native American artist who was born in Anadarko, Oklahoma and is known for his depictions of Native American Braves on horseback.

Both warriors are riding black and white spotted horses. The scene in the background shows a hillside under a setting sun with a orangish sky. The artist signature can be seen in the bottom right hand corner of the painted hide as Dau-Law-Taine and is dated 2021. The condition of this painted buffalo hide is good with no obvious signs of damage and in good overall condition.
