Catching Wild Horses with the Lasso - Frontier Adventures in the Argentine Republic,
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative and captivating photograph from the 1870s, taken from H.W. Bates' "Illustrated Travels" published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London. The image transports us back in time to the wild and untamed grasslands of Argentina during the 19th century. A group of men, dressed in the traditional attire of the Argentine frontier, are seen in the foreground, intently focused on the task at hand. One man skillfully swings a lasso over his head, ready to ensnare a wild horse galloping across the vast pampa. His companions, all mounted on horseback, are in hot pursuit, their faces etched with determination and excitement. The landscape in the background is a breathtaking expanse of grasslands, dotted with the occasional tree and stretching to the horizon. The sky above is a brilliant blue, with a few fluffy clouds adding a sense of tranquility to the scene. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the gauchos, the Argentine cowboys, and their adventures in the wild. It is a testament to their skill and bravery in taming the untamed horses of the Argentine pampas. The image is a timeless reminder of the rich history and culture of Argentina during the 19th century. The photograph is a print, adding to its antiquated charm and authenticity. The print, from the collection of W.S. Parfitt, is an invaluable addition to any collection of historical photographs or images of the American West. The creator of the photograph remains unknown, but the image is a powerful reminder of the spirit of adventure and the untamed wilderness that once defined the frontier of the Argentine Republic.
