Carl Ludwig Boeckmann was a Norwegian-American artist born on January 29, 1867 in Oslo, Norway. He was the youngest of five children that included a brother Adolph, and three older sistors, Hanna, Thora, and Bridget. Nothing is known about the rest of the family except that it sprang from town dwelling people. In 1883 at 16 years old he began to study at Knut Bergslien's school of painting. In 1886 he emigrated to America and started to wander around and visited the larger cities in central and northwestern part of America. In 1905 at 38 he permanently settled in Minneapolis, MN.

The picture shows the troops of General Alfred Sully's expedition against the Sioux. The nine by twelve painting hangs today in the senate conference room of the state capitol, St. Paul.
