This larger size statue is known as the most accurate version of the original bronze by Frederic Remington. Originally rendered in 1895, “The Bronco Buster” was Frederic Remington's first bronze sculpture. It has since come to symbolize all that is triumphant and heroic of the American West. The Bronco Buster reflects Remington's attention to detail, along with his ingenious rendering of intense movement combined with a delicate sense of balance. A casting of Remington's The Bronco Buster sculpture has resided in The White House since Theodore Roosevelt's presidency. This statue is reproduced in the original size and solid bronze. It is cast with patina and then hand-rubbed to bring out detail and highlights. The statue is then mounted on a marble base with an etched brass plate. The incredible detail of this sculpture is a Remington hallmark. CONDITION: Very good.
