Death Whoop[1] is an oil on canvas painting by Seth Eastman that depicts a Native American warrior holding up the scalp of a white person. Though it was part of a collection of Eastman paintings commissioned by the United States Congress, because people found it disturbing, it was removed twice from public view.
