Celebrating the 200th Anniversary of Lewis and Clark and the Corps of
Discovery, The Hockaday Museum of Art has an exhibition depicting this
important moment in American history.
Traditionally early explorers would employ a staff artist to
immortalize their travels on canvas. Lewis and Clark were exceptions to
this practice. Frank Hagel, a Montana native, and devotee of historical
paintings has created a body of work visualizing the Corps of Discovery.
