A 24"x 17" original oil painting by Toronto native Robert Atkinson Fox (1860-1935). Fox was known for his western and farm animal scenes as well as a few exotic works. He worked in both Canada and the United States and in the course of his life created thousands of paintings that still exist in the print and lithography market. His art has appeared on calendars, advertising pieces, ink blotters, candy, handkerchief and jewelry boxes, magazine covers, children's books and more.
This painting shows horses being herded across a river by Indian riders. I've been unable to find the title of the work, but a study of several other paintings by Fox, show simple titles like "Cows Feeding," or Horses in Field and in several cases, they were untitled.
This particular work really capture the pastel hues of the western sky reflecting on the surrounding mountains. A beautiful piece of art. Please see photos for more details.
