This piece is not just a visual treat but a tribute to the rugged beauty of the state’s natural landscapes and its beloved bovine residents. *** About Texas Longhorns: The Texas Longhorn is a breed of cattle known for its characteristic long, pointed horns, which can extend to over 7 feet from tip to tip. These cattle are not only a symbol of Texan culture but also represent a key part of the state’s agricultural history. Known for their diverse color patterns, hardiness, and docile temperament, Longhorns are often celebrated in Texan lore and art. Originating from feral Mexican cattle, they were the cornerstone of the Texas cattle industry during the 19th century, driving the era of the famous cattle drives. Today, they are raised both for their beef and their historical value, frequently featured in parades and cultural celebrations.
