Nothing softens an entryway like a painted surface. The Buffalo Runners by Charles Marion Russell arrives as a hand painted oil painting on canvas, offering the fine art detail, soft gradients, and tactile finish that fine art oil painting shoppers look for.
c. 1892
Oil on canvas
27 5/8 inches x 39 3/8 inches
Sid Richardson Museum, Fort Worth, Texas, United States.
Although he never claims to have seen one, few painted the buffalo hunt more successfully than Russell, whose love of the old West found expression in dozens of paintings on this single theme. At first he tended to isolate one mounted hunter and one buffalo, usually shown broadside to minimize perspective difficulties and keep the subject simple. The Buffalo Runners is unusually ambitious. It exhibits a fine feel for the terrain, especially the steep drop to the river where the herd is crossing in the distance. However, the central action is less effective. Since the average Blackfoot required at least three arrows to down a buffalo, he would hardly have been able to wound three animals, even in a prolonged chase, unless he was a phenomenal hunter.
As entryway wall decor, the piece pairs naturally with other heritage wall art and with warm neutrals, timber, and soft natural light.
We use a 100% hand-painted process: stretched artist-grade canvas, layered oil pigment, and a final protective varnish. There are no inkjet prints or mechanical reproductions in this collection — just a painted fine art artwork made to order.
Build an entryway gallery wall around this fine art oil painting, or let it stand alone as a single statement. The hand painted canvas finish keeps the fine art composition looking intentional in both classic and contemporary rooms.
