About A Dash for the Timber
A Dash for the Timber (1889) by Frederic Remington depicts eight men on horseback pursued by a group of Native Americans. Having not yet reached the trees, with one man struck by a bullet, it is not clear who will emerge victorious. Remington executed this climatic scene after Harper's Weekly sent him to document army efforts to capture the Apache leader Geronimo. Following the trip, Remington devised this fictional scene to convey the bravery and camaraderie of the cowboys. The cinematic framing would influence many future representations of western life in film and television.
