EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating bronze sculpture that captures the essence of American history and military prowess. Created by Frederic Remington in 1905, this stunning piece showcases the bravery and skill of the dragoons who served during that era. Standing at an impressive 73x119.3x43.8 cm, the sculpture depicts a group of riders on horseback, armed with swords and sabres. The attention to detail is remarkable, as each figure exudes strength and determination through their posture and facial expressions. The inclusion of Native American figures adds another layer of complexity to this artwork. It serves as a reminder of the diverse cultures that played significant roles in shaping America's past. Remington's mastery shines through in his ability to capture movement and energy within static bronze forms. The black patina further enhances the depth and texture, giving it an aged yet timeless quality. Displayed at The Art Institute of Chicago as part of the George F. Harding Collection, "The Old Dragoons" invites viewers to reflect upon America's rich heritage while honoring those who fought for its ideals. This iconic sculpture serves as a testament to Remington's artistic genius and his dedication to preserving historical narratives through art. Its presence evokes admiration for both soldiers' courage and horses' loyalty – reminding us all about our shared connection with these noble creatures throughout history.
