The Gund Collection August 6, 2008

This gallery showcases the collection of historic western art assembled by Cleveland businessman George Gund (1888-1966) and his family. The West that George Gund loved best was the 'West of the Horse,' and the artists that he most admired were those devoted to portraying western horses. This collection features works by artists who not only knew horses, but successfully portrayed them - whether wild bucking broncos and Indian ponies or cowboys' and troopers' trusty mounts - with flair and finesse.
