ARTIST WORLD RECORD

Rungius, Carl

Born near Berlin, Germany, Carl Rungius became one of America's most noted wildlife artists, usually working in plein air or directly from nature. His grandfather was a taxidermist and animal hunter, which gave him early exposure to this subject matter. He was also a hunter of big game from childhood, and eventually his lifestyle merged with his art.

Russell, Charles Marion

Born in St. Louis, Charles Russell became a legendary painter and sculptor of frontier activities of the American West. Unlike his well-known counterpart, Frederic Remington, he preferred to paint the Indian and the Cowboys rather than the cavalry men.
