This print features a moose hunter in a canoe eyeing his prey, wielding the new Winchester Model 54 bolt action rifle. The artist was R. Farrington Elwell (1874-1962). In addition to painter and illustrator, Elwell managed Buffalo Bill's Wyoming ranch from 1896 to 1921. The image is bright with no fading and only a couple minor horizontal creases near the top left. No staining. Robert Farrington Elwell became well known as a western illustrator, painter and sculptor although he was professionally trained as an engineer. Elwell met William F. Cody in the late 1880's after a Wild West performance. Cody invited Elwell to visit his ranches near Cody, Wyoming, to rest, relax, and work on his art. This print is in good condition with the only damage including the wire attached to the back of the print. The measurements of this print are 27" x 17 1/8".
