Crossing the River, c. 1895
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Charles Marion Russell that beautifully captures the essence of life in late 19th century America. In this artwork, Russell skillfully portrays a group of Native American men on horseback as they navigate their way across a river at twilight. The setting sun casts a warm glow over the scene, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and serenity. The horses' hooves splash through the water as they bravely carry their riders to the other side. With their arms raised high in determination and unity, these men exemplify strength and resilience in the face of nature's challenges. Russell's attention to detail is evident in his depiction of both human figures and animals alike. A large herd of animals can be seen following closely behind, adding movement and energy to the composition. The artist's mastery lies not only in capturing physical likeness but also in conveying emotion and storytelling through his brushstrokes. This artwork serves as a testament to Russell's deep appreciation for Native American culture and his ability to depict it with authenticity and respect. "Crossing the River" invites viewers into a moment frozen in time - an active journey filled with anticipation, courage, and camaraderie. As we gaze upon this timeless masterpiece from our private collection, we are reminded of the rich history that shaped our nation while marveling at Russell's artistic prowess. This print allows us to bring home a piece of art that celebrates both natural beauty and cultural heritage for generations to come.
