The Cheyenne is Remington's most popular Indian bronze sculpture. This piece has great movement and detail and terrific patina. Frederic Remington (1861-1909) cast 22 different subjects. The first foundry with which he worked was the Henry-Bonnard Bronze Company in New York. Four different sculptures were cast in bronze, starting in 1895, using the sand-casting method. They were The Broncho Buster, The Wounded Bunkie, The Wicked Pony, and The Scalp. In 1900 Remington began working exclusively with the Roman Bronze Works, New York. They produced his bronzes using the lost-wax bronze casting process until his death in 1909. Remington's widow, Eva, authorized the foundry to continue casting Remington's bronzes, until her death in 1918. By direction of Eva Remington's will, the foundry destroyed the molds shortly after her death. "Remington was one of the first artists to depict a galloping horse with all of its legs folded underneath as he showed with the Cheyenne using the buffalo cape to hold the horse up. He was influenced by a series of photographs by Edward Muybridge in "Animals In Motion" published in 1881. These photographs were the first to capture the galloping horse in mid-stride." The Cheyenne portrays a warrior galloping into battle on a horse in natural flight in mid-stride. This was a great accomplishment for Remington in grace and fluidity, he had made many prior attempts to portray a horse in natural flight. (Source: F&R Bronze).
