This cattle drive of longhorn cattle started in Fort Worth, Texas and ended in Miles City, Montana. The drive followed the historic Chisolm Trail and was similar to the Lonesome Dove story. All the longhorns were auctioned  when they reached Miles City. This dry, dusty scene was in southern Wyoming. The artist did not ride with them on the whole trip, but caught up with them at several places.

Giclee reproduction on canvas is as visually rewarding as it is technically amazing. These brilliant sharp giclee reproductions are simply the closest duplication of an original artwork that is possible. The word giclee is French and means "spray of ink." Once printed on canvas, the image is comprised of almost 20 billion droplets of richly saturated ink. The ink has a 75 year light fastness and does not need to be glassed.

These beautiful glicees of Ray Swanson paintings look very close to an original when hung on your wall. Each piece is mounted on canvas with 1" deep stretcher bars, gallery wrapped, stretched, wired, and ready to hang.

The artwork in the 1000 Series includes prints of original artwork that sold for $17,000 to $100,000. The original of this painting sold for $110,000 at auction in 2012!

This giclee is 22.5" high by 30" wide.
