Masks at the Gilcrease Museum

During a recent Oklahoma visit, one of our stops was at Tulsa’s Thomas Gilcrease Museum.  Gilcrease (that’s him in the photo above) was an Oklahoma Native American who discovered oil on his property (Come and listen to my story about a man named Gil, sung to the tune of the Beverly Hillbillies theme song).   Mr. Gilcrease collected artifacts of the Americas, western art, and more (cue in the Indiana Jones music), and he built the museum bearing his name.   The Gilcrease Museum is an impressive place, and the collection of Native American masks is particularly impressive.   Here are just a few, all shot at ISO 3200 on my Nikon.  Enjoy, my friends.
