Frederic Remington (1861–1909) has long been celebrated as one of the most gifted interpreters of the American West. Initially, his western images appeared as illustrations in popular journals. He started producing works for Harper’s at age 25 and this is just in his second year and one of his first magazine cover’s at age 26!  As Remington matured, he focused his art on painting and sculpture which can go for the millions of dollars.  This is an affordable way to get an original Remington cover that is 133 years old.
I am listing a number of Native American images from this era.  It was a terrible and bloody era when a high percentage of the Native American population was wiped out in North America.  I weep for what happened then, and in no way to I condone the actions that occured.  My hope by selling these images is that they will tell a story that will live on.  Some of the stories show the struggles and others push a sterotype.  I hope their story and the education they can tell lives on in you as you purchase these.
