In this celebrated foot race, Deerfoot is depicted in mid-stride, his powerful legs propelling him forward with remarkable agility. His feathered headdress adds a touch of Native American heritage to the scene, while his simple loincloth emphasizes the focus on pure physical prowess. The artist skillfully captures the intensity of the competition through dynamic illustration and attention to detail. The men surrounding Deerfoot in the background are dressed in period costumes, creating an authentic atmosphere that transports us back to 19th-century America.
