For your consideration is this Vintage Frederic Remington (1861-1909) "The Smoke Signal", Lithograph. Frederic Sackrider Remington was an American painter, illustrator, sculptor, and writer who specialized in the genre of Western American Art. His works are known for depicting the Western United States in the last quarter of the 19th century and featuring such images as cowboys, Native American Indians, and the US Cavalry. The artwork depicts a scene of Native American life, possibly a moment of communication using a smoke signal. In the foreground, two figures are tending to a fire from which a plume of smoke is rising into the sky. One man is positioned close to the fire, signaling, while another stands beside him watching intently. Behind them, a third figure is mounted on a horse, also focused on the ascending smoke. The landscape suggests an open plain under a wide sky, a mountain range in the far background, which enhances the feeling of a vast, uninterrupted space where such signals could travel far and be seen from great distances. The representation of the characters and their horses is detailed and naturalistic, which is characteristic of Remington’s style, contrasting with the looser, more expressive brushstrokes that define the Impressionist movement. The lithograph is mounted in a rustic style wood frame, slight scuffing on frame edges noted. Visible art measures 11.5"W x 23.5"L, frame is 15.5"W x 27.5"L x 1"D, weight is 5lb, 8oz.
