Charley Washakie, son of the chief, painted this elk hide
in honor of his father's warrior exploits. As can be
seen, he modeled the image of Washakie on the Baker &
Johnson photo. Courtesy Wyoming State Museum.

This is a close-up of an image of Chief Washakie painted
on a deerskin. The signature says "Shoshone Indian
Reservation, Wyo." Above that are the letters "CO"
or perhaps "CW." Obviously, this is another
image based on a Baker & Johnson photograph. The
hide was loaned in the early 1920s to the George Gustav Heye
Museum in New York City and is now part of the collection
of the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian.
Cat. No. 10/1935.
