Rounding Up a Stray (1922)

Borein authority John Galvin wrote, “Now I have come to consider Ed Borein as the perfect artist of the American West. This is not his praise, but a recognition of the fact that he lived in a time that made him unique. Borein lived his artistic life, working first as a cowboy on cattle ranches, doing a true day’s work as a cattle puncher. The people he drew, though they existed in his imagination, were well founded in reality, particularly the Indians who once rode freely over the West and across America’s desert lands, and cowboys who mustered cattle of a long-horned breed that no longer roam the range lands of the United States. All types of riders were shown using the animals that Borein drew with skill unmatched by any other artist anywhere, at any time – cattle and ‘Western’ horses.”
