Five idealized European men are depicted at the center, struggling with serpents, echoing the classical sculpture "Laocoön and His Sons". The artist, Kent Monkman's, gender-fluid alter ego, Miss Chief Eagle Testickle, often appears in his works, including this one, to subvert colonial narratives. The scene takes place within a setting that blends elements of an Indigenous lodge with a classical academy, addressing themes of colonization, sexuality, and the complexities of historical and contemporary Indigenous experiences. The painting draws on and subverts conventions of history painting, a genre traditionally used for large-scale works with historical, mythological, or biblical subjects.

Inspired by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo's ceiling cycle The Four Continents, specifically the fresco titled Apollo and the Four Continents, painted in the mid-18th century. Monkman reimagined Tiepolo's work to critique Euro-Western history and colonialism by recasting the allegorical figures into a Canadian Indigenous context.

While in Denver, be sure to check out the exhibit, Kent Monkman: History is Painted by the Victors. It is amazing work on such a grand scale that it is well worth seeing it in person. #KentMonkman #ChiefEagleTestickle
Check out the Denver Art Museum exhibit by Kent Monkman
"History is Painted by the Victors" through August 17, 2025.
We are in a time of great change and art informs & inspires! Don't miss it! #DenveArtMuseum #KentMonkman #RadicalArt
A scene of children being abducted by nuns & Canadian Mounties. A girl in a blue dress is screaming.
"The Scream" by Cree artist Kent Monkman, is one of the very moving pieces in his exhibit, "History is Painted by the Victors," at the Denver Art Museum. The exhibit is thought-provoking & very timely as we see lives being destroyed by this administration. #KentMonkman #DenverArtMuseum
Kent Monkman's painting The Scream shows RCMP and Catholic priests and nuns violently kidnapping First Nations children while parents desperately try to prevent this.
It's Canada Day, and this painting shows what Canada is built upon. www.aci-iac.ca/art-books/ke... #KentMonkman #CanadaDay #genocide #ResidentialSchools #RCMP #CatholicChurch
