The eye is certainly led to the cowboy.
From what is it sculpted?

Powerful.
It looks like Gary Cooper.

You caught that well against the overcast sky. It has a real sense of urgency to it. Just lovely.

It's a bronze, I suppose. I converted it to a line drawing, and then blended it with a B&W image.

That's quite a bronze. I have always though that sculptors of such wonderful works never really get the praise they should.
In the second photo it almost looks as though the horse has horns.

Who is responsible for such a magnificent sculpture?

Very nice! A real tribute to the cattle drives we've all heard about. Wayne's new avatar makes me think of Will Rogers for some reason.
