LARGE! EDWARD JAMES FRAUGHTON "SPIRIT OF WYOMING" LIMITED EDITION BRONZE
Est: -
Edward James Fraughton (Born 1939) "Spirit of Wyoming" Bronze Sculpture. The Spirit of Wyoming model was selected in a 1978 competition against 23 works, and the finished monument was placed at the Wyoming State Capitol grounds in 1986. In 1990, a special Centennial Edition was created to celebrate the Wyoming State Centennial in a slightly smaller scale to the original working model from 1978. Some of his other major works include the Mormon Battalion Monument, Sons of Utah Pioneers at the Presidio Park in Old Town San Diego; the All is Well Family Monument in the Brigham Young Cemetery in Salt Lake City. This particular bronze was acquired from Meyer Gallery in Park City, Utah in 1984 with a purchase price of $32,500.00. From Utah, Edward Fraughton is a sculptor in stone and bronze of western and history subjects. A major interest is cowboys and horses, especially cowboys on running horses. Fraughton once said: "The cowboy comes closest to being a Greek centaur, man and horse working together almost as one body." (Hagerty 112) Fraughton is a member of the National Sculpture Society, a founding member of the National Academy of Western Art, and a 1973 and 1975 gold medal winner at the National Cowboy Hall of Fame. He has exhibited his sculpture at the Gilcrease Museum and the Northwest Rendezvous Group. The sculpture itself measures 43H x 34W x 25D in. It comes with a custom crafted wood base made from the artist himself which measures approx. 21H x 31W x 32D in.
