# 'The Rattlesnake' Bronze After Frederic Remington, 20th Century, U.S.A.

A **20th century bronze sculpture after Frederic Remington’s celebrated _The Rattlesnake_**, capturing the energy and danger of the American West through a cowboy struggling to control his startled, rearing horse.

The composition depicts the horse recoiling violently in response to a rattlesnake, its body twisting upward as the rider pulls tightly on the reins while securing his broad-brimmed hat. The spiraling arrangement of horse and rider creates a remarkable sense of movement, tension, and suspended action.

Richly modeled throughout, the sculpture displays detailed treatment of the horse’s musculature, saddle and tack, the cowboy’s clothing, and the rugged terrain beneath. A warm **dark brown patina** accentuates the deeply textured surfaces and sculptural details.

The work bears a **cast signature reading “Frederic Remington” and a copyright inscription** on the bronze. A brass plaque mounted to the base identifies the composition as _Rattlesnake by Frederic Remington_.

The bronze is presented on a substantial **oval green variegated marble base**, providing an elegant contrast to the dark patinated surface and adding considerable presence to the sculpture.
