William “Bill” Gollings, born in Pierce City, Idaho, immersed himself in art from a young age, inspired by Frederic Remington’s illustrations. Moving to Chicago at the age of twelve, he absorbed ranch life while working various jobs, including on railroad engines and with cattle outfits. Self-taught initially, he earned a scholarship to the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts, mastering oil, watercolor, and etching techniques learned from Hans Kleiber. Gollings gained acclaim for his faithful depictions of Western scenes, later establishing a studio in Sheridan, Wyoming.
The painting appears to be in good condition. Under UV examination, there is no evidence of restoration or inpainting.
