Description

Framed picture of a herd of cattle being gathered into a tight cluster by a group of 4 cowboys on horseback, at least one of the cowboys is African-American. They are in a prarie of short grass, it appears to be near midday in winter. In the background from left to right is a cluster of white frame buildings and what might be a tin barn, a windmill on a steel tower, a post and barbed wire fence, and a chuckwagon. At the horizon is a stand of trees. The "O" brand of A.P. George is visible on some of the cows. The pasture is probably located on the east side of FM 762 on the George Ranch.Paper, wood, glass; Length/Circumference: 22, Width/Diameter: 27, Height: 1.5
