Edward Borein: Etched by the West
The life and art of famed Western artist Edward Borein (1872-1945) is the subject of a new book published by the Museum. The author, B. Byron Price, is one of the foremost scholars of the art of the American West. Price recently retired as Director of the University of Oklahoma’s Charles M. Russell Center for the Study of Art of the American West.
The 336-page work, the first scholarly treatment of the artist, includes more than 400 images, many never published. The book describes Borein’s path from itinerant vaquero to successful illustrator to revered recorder and interpreter of the vanishing West.
The hardback book is $65 and available for sale now HERE.
A special edition limited to 100 copies is also available for $300.00.
