This is a very impressive bronze that captures the intense action of the man and the horse. The accuracy of anatomy and scale that Remington achieved is remarkable. This sculpture exhibits the midair movement that Remington was so well known for. It has been said of him that he tried to sculpt horses with all four hooves off the ground, and this bronze displays his incredible ability to achieve that effect. This statue measures 9.5? x 10? x 3?, is a great example of artistic mastery, and is set at a great price.
Frederick Remington was born in Canton, New York, in 1861. His formal art instruction was brief. He had one year of study at Yale?s school of art, and brief study with American
Impressionist J. Alden Weir at the Art Student League in New York. Most of Remington?s time was spent out west, painting for exhibitions, and submitting illustrations for easterners hungry for a
glimpse of the American West. Because Remington lived the life he painted, he was an especially interesting figure to the editors who purchased his works. Once he had achieved a comfortable
level of financial success, Remington focused his energies on lost-wax sculptures, further exploring the western theme that brought him fame. He died suddenly of appendicitis at his home in
Connecticut at the age of 48.
