FRONTIERSMAN, c1850. Long Jakes, The Rocky Mountain Man - A Glimpse into the Wild West
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This steel engraving, based on a painting by Charles Deas in 1844, transports us back to the untamed era of the American frontier. In this artwork titled "Long Jakes" we witness an equestrian figure embodying the spirit of adventure and resilience that defined those who ventured westward. The central focus is on a rugged frontiersman astride his trusty horse, exuding confidence and determination. With his rifle at hand and wearing a wide-brimmed hat adorned with fur, he epitomizes the quintessential cowboy or mountain man of that time. His long beard adds to his weathered appearance as evidence of countless days spent traversing treacherous landscapes. Surrounded by vast open plains and distant mountains shrouded in mystery, this image captures both the beauty and challenges faced by settlers during westward expansion. The presence of spurs on his boots suggests a life lived in harmony with horses while also hinting at potential encounters with danger. As we gaze upon this print from Granger Art on Demand's collection, it serves as a reminder of America's rich history and its pioneers who braved unknown territories for new opportunities. It invites us to reflect upon their courage and perseverance while igniting our imagination about what life must have been like during this transformative period in Middle America – an era forever etched
