Charles Marion Russell (1864–1926) masterfully captured the art and soul of the American West as it was transforming before his eyes.
While he fulfilled his dream of an authentic cowboy life in Montana, he was also gifting the world with an inspired visual record celebrating Indigenous culture, Western narratives, grand landscapes, and majestic wildlife scenes. While his art is considered historic, his spirit is timeless.
