Note du spécialiste

After switching from a career in illustration to become a Western artist, Tom Lovell focused his lifelong passion for Native American culture into depictions of Indian life and historical subjects of the Old West. The present example shows a group of men on a search for wild horses, hoping to catch and train them for working or trading purposes.
