Frederick Remington's 'Coming through the Rye"

Updated September 11, 2026

A substantial patinated bronze sculpture measuring 30" H x 30" W x 20" D, after Frederic Remington’s legendary 1902 masterpiece, “Coming Through the Rye” (alternatively known as “Off the Range”). Depicts a quartet of animated cowboys atop galloping horses, brandishing pistols in mid-celebration. The complex composition achieves Remington's signature engineering feat, balancing the immense weight of the horses with only a fraction of their hooves making contact with the ground. This premium-quality casting was executed using the traditional lost-wax process, ensuring exceptional crispness to the textured leather chaps, reins, dynamic facial expressions, and anatomical details. The bronze is mounted upon a contoured, multi-tiered green marble base featuring a polished brass title plaque inscribed: "Coming Thru the Rye by Frederic Remington" .INSCRIPTIONS & PROVENANCE: Accompanied by the original physical Certificate of Authenticity issued by Gala Publications, Los Angeles, CA.
