Change of Ownership 1903

Frederic Remington's *Change of Ownership* (1903) depicts a Native American riding away on horseback, his blanket whipping behind him as he gallops across the plains. The scene is reminiscent of the American West's transformation in the late 19th century, as Native Americans were displaced from their lands. The painting's dynamic composition and use of light and shadow create a sense of motion and drama, further emphasizing the powerful sense of loss and change that permeates the piece. Remington's signature style of depicting the American West is evident in the painting, contributing to its popularity and iconic status.
