May 26, 2009
Here's the sketch of Powhatten Clarke that I whipped out last year:



This is based on a photograph of the young Lieutenant when he was based at San Carlos. Remington featured Clarke in several paintings, such as "Arrival of A Courier."

Powhatan died tragically before he could leave his mark on the army or the world.
