This is a statue in Joseph Oregon in north eastern part of the state. One of many spread around this quaint mountain town. There is a foundry there that just does brass figures like this one.

It is actually full size. There was nothing interesting to put in the background as a reference other than buildings and that would have ruined it

I like it, realistic statues are one of my favorite types of art.

You photographed it very well, and I really like the sky and mountains backdrop.

Is the bronze a replica or copy of a Frederick Remington work? Some of these foundries specialize in reproducing bronzes of works by Remington, Russell and others. They usually have some kind of information on the artist when they erect the statues. I have several Remington replicas and one by J.E. Russel in my collection. Wish I could afford the originals. :-D I really liked your photo.

As near as I could determine it is the work of an artist named Austin Barton who was a local to the area.
