Minerva Teichert Art “Fall Roundup”
Many Minerva Teichert paintings depict common Western tasks like this one titled: Fall Roundup. This enchanting rhythm of the changing seasons for cowboys and pioneers alike is captured in symbolic colors and movement. Minerva was hired by a family from Texas to create several pieces of art. “Minerva Teichert art seemed to always carry a significant moral to the story; symbolism with meaning” said Michael Kimball, art curator and director for the Houston Southwest Art Gallery in Houston, Texas “The cattle herd seems unending, as if reminding the viewer that life’s tasks are never truly finished, but rather managed in their season.” - Minerva Teichert Art Gallery Fall Roundup, 1956, oil on canvas, 49 x 57 inches is held by the Brigham Young University Museum of Art
