- Lot Description
Gherman Alexeyvich Komlev (Russian, 1933 - 2000) "Western Cattle in Snow Storm" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Canvas laid on Board.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
This painting was originally published on the Fleetwood First Day Cover for the U.S. $1 Cattle in a Storm stamp issued June 18, 1998.
In 1883, the Denver Republican defined a word that would epitomize the West. "If a man works on salary and rides after the herd he is called a 'cowboy'." An observer in the late 19th century elaborated, "(the cowboy) ... is a loyal, long-enduring, hard-working fellow, grit to the backbone, and tough as whipcord; performing his arduous and often dangerous duties, and living his comfortless life, without a word of complaint about the many privations he has to undergo." Driving thousands of cattle hundreds of miles to market, the cowboy faced innumerable hardships, including sickness, drought, prairie fires, stampedes, raging wind, blinding hail, torrents of rain, thunder and lightning, blistering heat, freezing cold, outlaws and Indians. A cowboy's diary provides an intimate look at some of the trail's miseries; "was on my Horse the whole night & it raining hard ... There was one of our party Drowned to day ... Many Men in trouble. Horses all give out & Men refused to do anything ... Awful night ... not having had a bite to eat for 60 hours ... Oh! what a night -- Thunder Lightning & rain -- we followed our Beeves all night as they wandered about ... We Hauled cattle out of the Mud with oxen half the day ... Dark days are these to me ... Sick & discouraged. Have not got the Blues but am in Hel of a fix ... Flies was worse than I ever saw them ... weather very Hot ... one man down with Boils & one with Ague ... Found a Human skeleton on the Prairie to day."
