Although Henry Farny was born and trained in Europe, his reputation as an artist is based on his paintings of Native Americans and the American West. His family emigrated from Ribeauville in Alsace, France, to western Pennsylvania in 1853, when Farny was six. There, while living in a remote and primitive area, Farny first encountered Native Americans. Six years later the Farny family traveled by flatboat to Cincinnati, where Henry began his art training and his career as an illustrator for Harper Brothers. After his first trip to the West in 1881, Farny began his initial group of Native American paintings in his studio in Cincinnati. He traveled both to Europe and to the American West several times, but remained mostly in Cincinnati for the rest of his life.
