We’ve got another Peter Hurd print today. I found this little gem in my favorite antique shop in Downtown Kalispell. Hurd painted this, one of this more well-known works, in 1954. Every time I see it, I am struck by how much my home state of Montana still looks exactly like this scene today. From the eternal sky to the cowboy boots, the fence building in this picture could have happened yesterday…down the road from my house. I’m sure all of the beautiful emptiness that currently surrounds me will not last forever, and I’m ok with that. I just try to remind myself to appreciate it while it lasts.
Print is available at Curated by Meleah.
