BIERSTADT, Albert: Study for The Last of the Buffalo

🖼 Study for The Last of the Buffalo, 1888
San Francisco, United States

Golden light bathes a dramatic landscape where a solitary buffalo charges across vast plains, rendered with Bierstadt's signature luminous brushwork and grand scale. This preparatory study captures the artist's elegiac vision of vanishing American wilderness and the extinction of the iconic species.
