working
copy
of
Howard
Chandler
Christy's
Signing
of the
Treaty
of
Green
Ville
was
created
in
1945
. The
state
of
Ohio
commissioned
Christy
(1873-1952)
, a
nationally-known
illustrator
, to
create
the
work
for the
150th
anniversary
of the
signing
of the

of
Greenville
,
which
ended
the
Indian
Wars
in
Ohio
. The
final
version
hangs
in the
Ohio
Statehouse
. This
painting
was a
working
copy
that

would have
painted
in
preparation
for his
final
work
.
Christy
,
born
just
south
of
Zanesville
in
Duncan
Falls
,
Ohio
,
went
to
New
York
to
study
art
at the
age
of
sixteen
. He
began
working
at
Scribner's
Magazine
in
1898
as an
illustrator
.
During
the
Spanish
American
War
, his
illustrations
of
Cuba
and
Puerto
Rico
were
seen
around
the
United

returned
to
Duncan
Falls
