Bronco Buster Bronze Statue By Frederic Remington
Featured in this lot we have a casting of "Bronco Buster" by American artist Frederic Remington. The Bronco Buster, originally created in 1895, was Frederic Remington's first bronze sculpture and has become a symbol of the heroic ideal of the American west. There has been a bronze cast of 'The Bronco Buster' in the White House since the days of Theodore Roosevelt. The statue depicts a cowboy in the middle of wrangling a bucking bronco which is in mid leap. The sculpture shows a hand carved engraving at the base reading "Frederic Remington". The statue is set onto a black and white marble base. The piece shows good condition overall with the riding crop being removable. The statue measures 20 1/2" long by 14" wide and 24" at the tallest.
