The Outlaw

Frederic Remington

An item at Metropolitan Museum of Art

Here a cowboy breaks in a newly saddled horse that is bucking in resistance. The weight of the group is borne on the horse’s left front hoof, which is entangled with sagebrush. The Metropolitan’s bronze is almost certainly a posthumous, unauthorized cast done by Roman Bronze Works.

Ranging from the colonial to early-modern periods, the holdings include painting, sculpture, works on paper, and decorative arts—including furniture, textiles, ceramics, glass, silver, metalwork, jewelry, basketry, quill and bead embroidery—as well as historical interiors and architectural fragments.
