Tah-Ro-Hon, An Ioway Warrior is a 1838 ink by Alfred Hoffy, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a man with a serious expression, wearing a pink shirt with black dots and a red sash. He has a feathered headdress and large earrings. In his right hand, he holds a long, striped staff with a red cloth wrapped around it. The man's attire and accessories suggest that he is a warrior from the Ioway tribe. The level of detail in the painting, particularly in the headdress and staff, indicates a high level of craftsmanship. The artist's attention to detail and use of color create a vivid portrait of this Ioway warrior.
