Golden Eagle Art Gallery is pleased to offer an extensive collection of world-renowned artworks by Canadian wildlife artist, Robert Bateman. World-travelled and well versed, Bateman always tells a great story about each of his creations. Here is what he has to say about this piece:
"The barn with its cattle symbolizes for me a wonderful era in the relationship of man to man and man to animal. This time began thousands of years ago but was refined a few years ago in the temperate zone of Europe and then North America. Soils and climate were good for producing crops, but the catch was winter. If people could produce a surplus, the problem was storage...thus the invention of the barn."
