Hi everyone--I am sure hoping you can help. My dad is trying to find out the name and artist of a cowboy print or painting so he can get it for his friend. The friend described it to him and my dad knew right away what picture he was talking about but neither of them know the artist or the name of the painting. He said it shows a tired cowboy with his head kind of down, kind of a scrawny cowboy i think, sitting on a tired looking horse and they are near a gate and it says below them "the last roundup". Well i have googled that title alot and can't find it and can't seem to get any info on it. If i can find out who the artist is or what the artwork is called I can tell my dad and he can surprise his friend with it as a gift. Does anyone recognize the description at all? Thanks for your help!

I believe it is by an artist named Dan Muller who died in 1977. His creative use of western themes incorporated cowboys, I believe he is the artist of the painting you are describing.

Hmm, Wikipedia's entry for the artist states "Muller reportedly had his painting 'The Last Roundup' purchased by Nevada Senator George Malone; ("Trailings of Yesteryear" & Nevada State Journal, March 25, 1951)." I can't find an image of it online, though.
