George Winter (1810 – 1876) was an English-born American artist who was noted for his portraits of Native Americans and other figures of the American frontier. ==Biography== Winter was born in Portsea, Portsmouth, England to a cultured family and lived in an art atmosphere from early childhood. After private instruction, he entered the Royal Academy, London, where he lived and worked for four years. In 1830 he moved to New York City and continued his studies at the National Academy of Design. In 1835 he moved to Cincinnati, Ohio. On a trip to nearby Dayton, Ohio, he met Mary Jane Squier, whom he would marry in 1840. Hearing of the plight of northern Indiana's Potawatomi Indians, who were being removed to Kansas in what would later be called the "Potawatomi Trail of Death," Winter moved to Logansport, Indiana, in 1837 to document their culture. After 13 years in Logansport he moved to Lafayette, Indiana, where he lived until 1873, when he moved to California. In 1876 he returned to Lafayette, and soon after died suddenly while attending a meeting of railroad stockholders at Snyder's Opera House. He was buried in Lafayette's Greenbush Cemetery.
