Open edition "The Smoke of a .45" print by Charles Russell.

This "The Smoke of a .45" print is a true work of art and a fine collectors item. Just like at the fine detail put into this piece. This is true craftsmanship! The image was created by world famous master painter Charles Russell. It depicts western shootout between cowboys. It measures 30" by 20". This print is a high quality canvas transfer in which a thick copy is taken from the original and transfered to another canvas for an amazing print that looks just like an original painting.

Known as the "cowboy artist," Charles Russell's success story exemplifies the American dream. Uncouth and unschooled, Russell had a passion for the untamed frontier that led him to roam the West; he hunted and trapped, and herded cattle on the open range -- all the while sketching and sculpting for pleasure the frontier life that he loved and which was fast disappearing in his lifetime. Having endured many a lean season, by the turn of the century Russell received remarkably high prices for his artwork and unequivocal praise from cowboys, Indians, critics, and artists.
