Seen it in history class. Perfect picture to describe the manifest destiny and westward expansion. Came at a cost for the natives sadly.

A speaker in the UK says all Americans know this painting. I had never seen it before. Anyone else?
This painting shows Manifest Destiny, the belief in westward expansion of the United States from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean. It was widely distributed as an engraving called "Spirit of the Frontier". Settlers are moving west, guided and protected by Columbia, aided by modern technology like railroads, and driving Native Americans and bison into obscurity. Columbia represents America, dressed in a Roman toga to represent classical republicanism, and brings the enlightened east to the darkened west.
