The Cowboy ☷ Remington ☳ Canvas Add a Float Frame:Black Nocturne: Blue and SilverThe Cowboy (1902) by Frederic Remington depicts cowboy riding a horse down a steep, rocky incline. A solitary, heroic figure, symbol of the American West, the cowboy is attired in a wide brimmed hat, chaps, and boots. Remington's fluid brushwork and focus on action and movement makes this representation one of the definitive images of cowboy culture in early 20th century American art.
