The life-size plaster of Young Indians Hunting earned an honourable mention at the Salon des Artistes Français in 1905. A bronze reduction exhibited at the same Salon in 1907 was purchased by the Canadian government. It is very likely this work that promoted the artist’s reputation when he returned from Paris.
