Frederic Remington Bronze Sculpture – “The Mountain Man”, 20th Century

Frederic Remington Bronze Sculpture – “The Mountain Man”, 20th Century

This striking bronze sculpture, attributed to the legendary American artist Frederic Remington, captures the essence of the rugged frontier spirit with breathtaking motion and anatomical precision. Titled “The Mountain Man,” the piece depicts a daring horseman and his mount descending a treacherous slope, the reins taut and tension palpable. This dramatic composition — one of Remington’s most iconic subjects — epitomizes the peril and tenacity of life in the American West.Remingtons mastery in rendering movement, detail, and raw emotion is on full display, from the horse’s poised limbs to the rider’s focused intensity. The sculpture is mounted on a beautifully striated red-and-white marble pedestal, set atop a darker marble plinth that provides striking visual contrast and stability.A collector’s piece of historical and artistic importance, this work is a tribute to the frontier mythos Remington helped define and immortalize. Ideal for connoisseurs of Western Americana, fine bronze sculpture, or late 19th to early 20th century American art.
