Frederic Remington was born on October 4, 1861, in Canton, New York. Frederic attended the art scholl at Yale University, but dropped out when his father died, and soon went west to Kansas City. He married Eva Caten in 1884 and after trying the frontier life, moved back to Brooklyn. He began to submit illustrations, sketches, and other works with western themes for publication. Much of his early work appeared in Collier's and Harpeer's. A prolific artist, his technical ability meant he could reproduce the physical beauty of the west, and his insight into the heroic nature of American settlers made him possibly America's greatest western artist.
