PDNB Gallery is celebrating the American Cowboy with this online exclusive exhibition. With the release of Western movies and many great television series, and the western clothing and boot craze in full swing, why not lasso some great photographs featuring real cowboys and cowboy themes?
This is a fun selection of work from the gallery’s holdings, from early, historic rodeo photographs by John Stryker, to a contemporary staged setting of a cowgirl having a shot of whiskey in her cowboy-themed office by Patty Carroll. Enjoy the ride!
