Out West on the Wagon Train

 


Saturday was my museum day.  I stopped at The Shemer Art Museum first and then went to the Scottsdale Museum of the West.  I hadn't been to the Museum of the West since long before the pandemic.  

Inside the museum, I found this western scene painted on a wall and continuing out over the floor.  It's quite an impressive painting.  That horse's body is on the wall but his neck and head are painted on the floor.  The 3-D illusion is perfect.  


I'm not sure if this qualifies as a mural but I think it's pretty special so I'm going to use it for Monday Murals.

  1. Wow, that IS impressive. Seems to give it quite a sense of depth. I suppose the proportions on the floor had to be scaled to make them match the wall, given the angle?
