Wind of Wyoming 1936

Maynard Dixon’s 1936 painting “Wind of Wyoming” is a striking example of the artist’s signature style and subject matter: the vast landscapes of the American West. This landscape painting depicts a wide-open expanse of grasslands under a bright blue sky, punctuated by billowing white clouds. In the distance, a mountain range stretches across the horizon. The painting captures the feeling of spaciousness and isolation that is characteristic of the Wyoming landscape. Dixon was known for his powerful and evocative representations of the West, and “Wind of Wyoming” is a testament to his enduring legacy as an artist.
