專家說明

As a young boy born in Germany, Herman Wendelborg Hansen was inspired by James Fenimore Cooper's novel Leather Stocking Tales to paint scenes of the American West. His eventual career as a commercial illustrator sent him travelling across the United States, where the rugged terrain inspired action-packed paintings, such as the present work.
