George Boutwell’s

SILENT THUNDER


Painting completed in: 1987

Buffalo Gap is near Abilene and was the gateway through which the great Buffalo herds migrated to the grasslands of South Texas. So numerous were the Buffalo that the herds stretched as far as the eye could see and took several days to pass by. On a quiet day, if you listen carefully, you might still hear the echo of their thundering hooves.
