About The Broncho Buster

“The Broncho Buster,” created by Frederic Remington in 1909, is a sculpture representing the Impressionism art movement. This bronze artwork captures the essence of a powerful moment between a rider and a bucking horse.

The artwork depicts a cowboy mid-motion as he attempts to tame a wild horse. The dynamic positioning of both the rider and the horse showcases a significant level of skill in conveying movement and tension. The cowboy, with one arm outstretched and the other gripping the reins, exemplifies the struggle and resilience of taming a bronco. The horse, with its arched back and raised legs, further enhances the sense of motion and energy inherent in the sculpture. The intricate detailing on both figures highlights Remington’s mastery of form and his ability to portray action within a static medium.
