October 5, 1813 - Death of Tecumseh

by Constantino Brumidi

"You, too, will be driven away from your native land and ancient domains as leaves are
driven before the wintry storms...Our broad domains are fast escaping from our grasp."
—Chief Tecumseh

This is one of a series of allegorical scenes from American
history painted by Brumidi in the rotunda of the Capital.
