Original Description
Missing by Frederic Remington (1900) captures the stark solitude of the American frontier with striking emotional intensity. A lone cowboy, hunched over his horse in a vast, snow-covered landscape, gazes down at a fallen companion—likely a fellow rider or a fallen Native American warrior—under a brooding twilight sky. Remington’s signature loose, energetic brushstrokes and subdued palette heighten the scene’s realism and melancholy, embodying his deep fascination with the vanishing Old West. As a key figure in American Impressionism and Western art, Remington romanticized frontier life while subtly critiquing its brutality. Missing, part of his later, moodier works, reflects his shift from action-packed narratives to psychological depth—cementing his legacy as a chronicler of westward expansion’s human cost. Today, it’s celebrated for its narrative ambiguity and technical mastery, often displayed alongside works by Charles Russell as quintessential artifacts of 19th-century frontier mythology.
For a contemporary space, Missing would anchor a rustic-modern office or study, its somber tones pairing well with leather furniture, reclaimed wood shelves, and wrought-iron accents. Opt for a medium to large frame (24"x36" or similar) in a distressed bronze or walnut finish to complement Remington’s earthy palette. Hang it against a deep navy or charcoal wall to intensify the painting’s drama, or soften its gravity in a sunlit room with neutral linen textiles and matte black decor. In a corporate setting, it could inspire reflection in a boardroom alongside minimalist steel furniture—the contrast between raw frontier emotion and sleek modernity creating compelling tension. Avoid overcrowding the wall; this piece demands solitude, much like its subject.
