"The Morning: Stags and Does" is a lithograph by Karl Bodmer, created in 1858. The print depicts a herd of deer in a serene landscape, with a majestic stag prominently positioned at the forefront, its antlers raised as it surveys its surroundings. Bodmer was renowned for his meticulous observation and naturalistic depictions of Native American cultures and the American West. This work, now part of the collection at The Art Institute of Chicago, exemplifies Bodmer's talent for capturing the beauty and grandeur of the natural world through precise detail and a harmonious composition.
