The Frontiersman Bronze Relief - 1916

The Frontiersman Bronze Relief - 1916

$5,000.00Price
Frontiersman by Avard T. Fairbanks

The Indian and the Frontiersmen are two high-relief rectangular plaques which are paired, and the figures are standing opposite one another so as to be facing each other.  

 At an early age Avard Fairbanks showed an interest in history.  He created an accurate portrayal of the frontiersman which typifies those who proceeded the Mormon pioneers to the Great Salt Lake Valley, such as Jim Bridger who described it in detail years before. The frontiersmen  holds the barrel of a single shot muzzle loading rifle in his left hand and a powder horn over his left hip. 

They were created by Avard T. Fairbanks in his youthful years, 1916 and were provided in colored plaster to many of the Utah public schools.  Castings in bronze are available for purchase.
