Description

Enjoy this gallery wrapped canvas print reproduction with hanging hardward of an image from Kona Historical Society's collections.


The image is of cowboys from McCandless Ranch working with wild cattle in Kona. Kona paniolo continued to work "wild" cattle well after large ranch homestead and domestication of cattle in Hawaii predominated. After the end of the period of "open range" and subsequent gencing (dry stack walling) in the 19th centure ensued, there continued (and continues to this day) to be wild cattle in mauka forest and in difficult terrain to round up.


This canvas measures 11" by 16" by 1.5."
