Coming through the Rye (Off the Range) / Frederic Remington

Curatorial Remarks

This bronze has no cast number inscribed on it. Gilcrease records identify it as cast number 1. However, Greenbaum believes it is cast number 4 and Alice Duncan from Gerald Peters Gallery does not believe this a lifetime cast at all.

Note:

Remington is known as one of the premier artist of the American West. During the 1880s, he traveled through the Dakotas, Montana, the Arizona Territory, and Texas, returning to New York in 1885, with the desire to record the vanishing wilderness. In 1895, he began to exhibit his bronzes of cowboys and horses in motion. After 1900, his illustrative style shifted to one of Impressionism, as he became influenced by the work of Monet, Childe Hassam, and John H. Twatchman. In addition to his paintings and sculpture, he wrote eight books and numerous short stories on the Wild West. Comment on works: western
