Description
"The Bronco Buster" by Frederic Remington Bronze Sculpture Reproduction portraying a rugged cowboy character fighting to stay aboard a rearing, plunging bronco, with a stirrup swinging free, a quirt in one hand and a fistful of mane and reins in the other. The sculpture is fixed to a slab of green rock with felt on the bottom and a metal plaque on one side which reads "Bronco Buster by F. Remington". Remingon became well known for his ability to capture the frontier spirit of Americans settling in the west. "The Bronco Buster" was his first sculpture, modeled and copyrighted in 1895. It became the most popular small American bronze sculpture of the 19th century. This sculpture measures approximately 13"x 9"x 4". Heavy piece. Good condition.
