A carga

1906

Frederic Remington essencialmente inventou a linguagem visual do Oeste americano, e esta cena é pura adrenalina. Uma tropa de cavaleiros atravessa os arbustos de sálvia com estrondo, com as armas disparando e os chapéus voando em uma carga caótica e empoeirada que parece uma cena de filme. Quase se pode ouvir os cascos batendo na terra enquanto os soldados avançam. Curiosamente, a letra pequena na parte inferior revela que esta imagem é uma reprodução de uma pintura que originalmente estava pendurada na «Griff Room» do Hotel Knickerbocker em Nova York, trazendo a ação selvagem da fronteira diretamente para a porta das elites da Era Dourada em 1906.
