About the Artist:
Frederic Remington (October 4, 1861 – December 26, 1909) was an American painter, illustrator, and sculptor renowned for his realistic portrayals of life in the American West. He studied art at Yale University and the Art Students League of New York, then dedicated himself primarily to illustrative work. Traveling extensively west of the Mississippi River, he specialized in depicting Native Americans, cowboys, soldiers, and the plains' vibrant life. His sketches and photographs from these trips provided rich material for his New York City studio work.
During the 1880s and 1890s, Remington’s illustrations appeared in popular magazines like Harper’s Weekly and Scribner’s Magazine. He also published books and articles to showcase his illustrations. As a war correspondent and artist during the Spanish-American War, Remington's work stood out for its dynamic action and detailed accuracy. In 1895, he created "The Broncho Buster," his first famous bronze sculpture. The Remington Art Museum in Ogdensburg, New York, houses an important collection of his paintings, illustrations, and bronze statuettes.
