Frederic Remington

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Wicked Pony by Frederic Remington: A dark-colored sculpture of a rearing pony on its hind legs. The pony's body faces right. Its head and front legs are lowered towards a man lying on the ground. The pony has a bridle and saddle on. The pony's tail is raised. The man wears a cowboy hat and a collared shirt. He lies on his back with his arms at his sides; his right arm bent at the elbow. The sculpture sits on a marbled base.
