Heading for a Wreck by Bob Scriver

Heading for a Wreck bronze by Bob Scriver. Inscibed "Heading for a Wreck- Copyright Bob Scriver-1968-3-Bighorn Foundry." 17" x 36" x 27" This very large and impressive work by Bob Scriver is considered by most Western art collector as one of the top three bronzes from his Rodeo Series. In describing this piece, Scriver said "Scupting this action, I decied to picture the hazer as well as the dogger because the hazer is most certainly an essential part of the bulldogging sequence. Getting the story told wa of prime importance here. However, there were many opportunites for a good sculptural design. Proper arrangement of the elements was of great importance to the authenticity of the piece. It was not my purpose in these sculptures about rodeo to depict the cowboy as a an who always makes the perfect ride or the perfect catch, but rather as a man who, although he knows his business, can and does make errors. This is so evident here where the dogger's timing is just a little off and the steer and he are going to go head over heels."
