Western Crossing – Horses

This painting shows a small herd of horses wading through a calm river, moving in a loose line as water ripples around their legs. Beyond the riverbank, golden grasses lead to a dense stand of evergreens, backed by towering, snow-dusted mountains under a clear sky. The horses’ reflections shimmer on the water’s surface, emphasizing their steady movement and shared direction. The scene captures a sense of freedom and quiet purpose within a wide, open western landscape.
