Frederick Remington is one of the most famous practitioners of western art of the past century and a half. Before motion pictures began to color our perceptions of the American West, his paintings, illustrations, and sculptures captured images of the western frontier, of cowboys, Indians, and cavalry troopers who populated the era he was born into and worked as an illustrator for Harper’s Weekly.

His focus was on people and animals, especially horses, of the American west, with the landscapes of secondary importance. Many of his oil pieces depict men on horseback moving at various speeds across the canvass, creating a sense of motion and energy that catches the eye and holds the attention.

Remington was just as adroit in executing bronze sculptures, the most famous of which was “The Bronco Buster,” which depicts a cowboy breaking a horse that is busily trying to unseat him.

Remington was born in 1861 in New York where he spent most of his childhood. After some failures at business and a rocky marriage he found his true calling working for Harper’s Weekly, a job that frequently took him to the American west in the 1880's and 1890's, executing some of his subjects from life. Unlike many artists, he was a shrewd businessman and a self promoter, something that redounded greatly to his success. He was an early champion of photoengraving process over wood engraving to reproduce visual art into magazine illustrations. He had an informal agreement with Harper’s Weekly for a first look at his art, but was free to sell it elsewhere.

Unfortunately Remington struggled with obesity all of his life. It eventually killed him in 1909 when he underwent an emergency appendectomy during which his girth complicated the procedure, resulting in peritonitis.

Over a century after his death, Remington remains an iconic artist/chronicler of the American west, capturing in his paintings and sculptures an era and a way of life, perhaps in some ways idealized, that is now long past.

From Asian and Indian to Native American culture, the tiger is a symbol for power, independence, vitality, unpredictability, healing, sensuality, aggression, and raw emotion. Tigers are solitary, stealthy, night hunters with extremely keen senses and patience who often wield the element of surprise on their prey.

If the symbolism of tigers speaks to you, it denotes that you are capable of incredible passion, courage, and willpower in the face of the most difficult circumstances. Those with natural tiger energy are said to be skilled as sensitive body workers who can easily move vital energy in themselves and others. Tiger people are also noted both for their adventurous spirits and for creating sacred spaces to enjoy their precious alone time.Tiger cubs are born blind and stay that way for two years. In mythology, it is said that this blindness produces remarkable inner sight, which later enables them to tap into all of their abilities, including psychic and physical. Tiger eyes also have extraordinary sight in the dark.

In animal art, the tiger has been revered in prehistoric images all over the world. The tiger is one of the twelve signs in Chinese Astrology, where it is associated with feminine energies and the element of water, all of which are often depicted in fine art. In India, Shiva is one of the three most important deities in Hinduism. Shiva is associated with destruction, transformation, and transcendence, and he is often shown in the company of a tiger in Indian fine art.

While connecting with tiger energy directly in the modern world is not likely, it is easy to do through art. For tiger art that focuses on sight, Eye of the Tiger by Lucie Bilodeau is an excellent choice. For a more traditional take on the entire form and beauty of the amazing tiger, consider the Tigre Royal fine art print by Paul Jouve. And last but not least, if you prefer a contemporary, realistic style of art that depicts the three elements of aggression, inner power, and healing symbolism of the tiger, Nature's Kingdom – Tigers is an ideal choice. Fulcrum Art Gallery also offers many other art images for the tiger energy in you!
