"Peace Offering" is one of Jerome Tiger’s most iconic and poignant compositions, painted during the final year of his life in 1967. The artwork captures a lone Native American warrior looking upward, his bow and full quiver set carefully on the ground before him. Stripped of defensive posture, he holds a long, traditional ceremonial pipe toward the sky as an act of peace and spiritual reverence.
The piece perfectly exemplifies Tiger's mastery of minimalism and negative space. With minimal background lines, the focus remains entirely on the fluid movement of the warrior's vestments and hair blowing in the wind. This limited-edition print was beautifully reproduced on heavy archival paper by the artist's family estate (Jerome Tiger Art Company) in a strictly limited run of 750 pieces.
About the Artist (Biography):
Jerome Richard Tiger (1941–1967) was a legendary, full-blood Muscogee Creek-Seminole painter born in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Though his professional career lasted a brief five years before his tragic death at age 26, he permanently revolutionized Native American modern art. Combining traditional cultural subject matter with an avant-garde, ethereal technical virtuosity, Tiger's work drew immediate comparison to European masters. Today, his limited editions are highly prized by fine art collectors, with his original masterpieces held in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institution, the Gilcrease Museum, and the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.
