About The Advance

The artwork titled “The Advance,” created by Frederic Remington in 1898, belongs to the Impressionism art movement and is classified as a genre painting.

In “The Advance,” Remington captures a dynamic scene featuring four mounted soldiers, each astride powerful horses in a dusty, yellow-hued landscape. The soldiers, garbed in military attire, exude a sense of action and readiness. Their horses appear vigorous and animated, with their manes and tails flowing and their hooves kicking up dust as they move across what seems to be an arid terrain. The background showcases a vast, open space under a bright blue sky with distant geological formations suggesting a rugged, frontier setting. The bright, sunlit colors and bold brushstrokes characteristic of Impressionism are evident, contributing to the vitality and immediacy of the scene.
