About Charles Marion Russell: Russell's work serves as a visual chronicle of the indigenous culture, the Western American narrative, and the natural landscapes and wildlife he so admired. His legacy lives on at the C.M. Russell Museum in Great Falls, Montana, which houses a significant collection of his works and includes his preserved home and studio, a testament to his life and artistry.
