Ouray is the fourth Chief Crowfoot of the Siksika Nation, following in the footsteps of his great great grandfather, and was joined at the unveiling by the third Chief Crowfoot, Srater Crowfoot.
Keating described the work as one of the most important of his entire career. It portrays the chief in traditional dress, overlooking his ancestral land.
