About this Artwork

This original oil on canvas work is a strong investment for any serious collector of western art. Depicting a Native American war party fording a river, their spears and lances at the ready, this work is a masterpiece of detailed study of anatomy while creating a distinct mood.

Giclée + Other Art Terms

Giclée: From the French verb gicler, meaning, “to spray.” It is pronounced “zhee-clay”. The giclée process uses an incredibly accurate computer-controlled jet to apply ink to watercolor paper, canvas or etching paper. These unique jets are able to vary the width of the ink stream to as small as 1/100th the width of human hair. Giclées have a higher resolution than offset lithographs and the dynamic color range is greater than serigraph. Giclée reproductions are used to produce museum quality, fine art reproductions. In the art world it is generally regarded as the highest quality reproduction available.

About

Robert Magee

Bio

Canada’s premier horse painter, Magee was born and raised in Toronto but over the years he found himself being drawn westward where he could focus on reminding us just how deeply we are connected with the history of the horse.

Over the years Magee’s talent and contribution have been recognized time again, with major exhibitions, including a one man show of his work at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington in 1990 and 1999.

Magee has uncovered another thread in the history of the horse that is taking him back to a hitherto unexplored Canadian history: his own. His latest works comprise a very personal group of studies with inspiration drawn from around the farm owned by the Magee family from 1828 until the second world war.

Now Magee embarks on the next phase of his journey in the village of Schomberg, just north of Toronto, with its magnificent horse farms and the rolling hills of King and Caledon.
