Painting Description
"Burgess Finding a Ford" is an illustration created by the renowned American artist Frederic Remington, featured in his 1895 book "Pony Tracks." Frederic Remington, celebrated for his depictions of the American West, was a prolific painter, illustrator, sculptor, and writer whose works have become iconic representations of the frontier era. His illustrations often captured the rugged life of cowboys, Native Americans, soldiers, and settlers, providing a vivid visual narrative of the late 19th-century American frontier.
"Pony Tracks" is a collection of Remington's writings and illustrations, offering a glimpse into his experiences and observations of the Western frontier. The book combines his keen eye for detail with his ability to convey the dynamic and often harsh realities of life in the West. "Burgess Finding a Ford" is one of the many illustrations in this collection that exemplifies Remington's skill in portraying action and movement, as well as his deep understanding of the landscapes and characters that populated the American West.
The illustration likely depicts a scene involving a character named Burgess, who is engaged in the challenging task of finding a ford—a shallow place in a river or stream where one can cross. This task would have been a common and crucial part of frontier life, as safe passage across water bodies was essential for travel and transportation. Remington's attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of such moments contribute to the historical and artistic value of his work.
Remington's illustrations, including "Burgess Finding a Ford," are not just artistic endeavors but also historical documents that provide insight into the daily lives, struggles, and adventures of those who lived during the expansion of the American frontier. His work continues to be celebrated for its contribution to American art and its role in shaping the popular image of the Old West.
