What it is
Women and children ride horses pulling travois across the plain, a dog trotting alongside, in Charles Marion Russell’s oil on canvas of 1898.
Why it matters
Russell painted the life of the Plains peoples of Montana as often as the cowboy’s.
What to notice
The travois poles trail behind the horses, and the land falls away to blue hills on the left.
Home, carried on horseback.
