Bull Moose Canvas Wall Art Print

In 1912, as Theodore Roosevelt campaigned for president under the Progressive Party — nicknamed the "Bull Moose Party" — philanthropist August Heckscher gifted him this striking oil painting by Carl Rungius in celebration of his 54th birthday.

The work depicts a moose charging toward the viewer, its head lowered in a powerful display of strength and determination. The impressionistic style, with soft, blurred strokes, highlights a stark, barren landscape of dead trees and yellowed grass — reflecting both the rugged wilderness Roosevelt loved so dearly and his relentless spirit during this pivotal time in American politics.

This painting now hangs in the Library at the Theodore Roosevelt Home, proudly displayed above a bookcase. A symbol of Roosevelt’s indomitable will, it connects the strength of the moose to the larger-than-life character of the man who led the Progressive movement.

Lovingly restored and enhanced for modern canvas, this classic brings American heritage to your walls. Perfect for an office, hunting cabin, library, or den.
