Charles M. Russell
In 1880, at the age of sixteen, Charles M. Russell left his middle-class home in Saint Louis and headed west. He arrived in Montana not to seek his fortune but to share the lives of the mountain men, cowboys, and wranglers whose exploits had filled his imagination as a boy. In the years that followed he found his niche in the cattle kingdom, working as a wrangler, joining his fellow cowboys on the roundup and for his own pleasure and that of his friends--chronicling in paint, ink, and watercolor the West and its people.
Charles M. Russell
Charles M. Russell cowboy, painter, sculptor, writer was an advocate of the people, animals, landscapes, and ideals of the West. Perhaps most importantly, he was an archivist. Through his detailed and honest paintings, sculptures, line drawings, and prose, he memorialized the Western way of life as it was at the turn of the twentieth century. Far from romanticizing the West, Russell's art captured the harsh and beautiful reality of the everyday world he lived in. Russell was one of those rare artists who was famous during his lifetime. Most books about Russell focus on his masterpieces, but Charles M. Russell: Printed Rarities from Private Collections examines the lesser-known but ubiquitous commercial works that made him a household name. These magazine covers, postcards, calendars, cigar boxes, ink blotters, letterheads, and artifacts are today some of the most highly sought after Russell memorabilia.

C.M.R.: Charles M. Russell
A biography by the subject's nephew.
Charles M. Russell
Charles M. Russell has long been recognized for his action-packed paintings, drawings, and sculpture of cowboys, fur trappers, Native American buffalo hunters and warriors, and other heroes of the Old West. Russell's best-known works capture the excitement and deadly risk of men battling nature and one another in a majestic landscape of mountains and plains. Less well known are Russell's hundreds of depictions of western women. As renowned author and art historian Ginger K. Renner observed thirty-five years ago, no other artist of the West devoted more of his time and talent to the portrayal of women. But few have followed Renner's lead--until now. Lavishly illustrated with full-color illust...
