EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a cowboy breaking in a horse, showcasing the raw power and determination required for this challenging task. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, it offers a glimpse into a time when horsemanship was essential to life on the frontier. The image is part of a private collection and was later used as an illustration for The Clever Animals Picture Book published around 1945. It beautifully portrays the bond between man and animal, highlighting their mutual trust and cooperation. Set against the backdrop of the 1940s, this photograph transports us back to an era when horses played a vital role in transportation, agriculture, and even racing. From majestic racehorses to sturdy shire horses, these magnificent creatures were not only farm animals but also beloved companions. With its rich history rooted in America's past, this image reminds us of our connection to nature and our reliance on animals for survival. It symbolizes both the untamed spirit of wild horses and humanity's ability to tame them through patience and skill. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported to another time – one where cowboys roamed free across vast landscapes with their trusted steeds by their side.
