Charles Marion Russell: A collection of 293 works (HD)
Description: "Charles Marion Russell, one of the greatest artists of the American West, is born on this day in St. Louis, Missouri.
According to family lore, Charlie Russell displayed an aptitude for art from a young age, reportedly drawing pictures and modeling in wax when he was a small child. At 16 years old, Russell’s parents sent him to Montana under the care of a sheepherder. The independent young man struck out on his own soon after, finding work as a cowboy in the booming Montana ranching industry.
During long, often tedious days watching over cattle on the open range, Russell sketched the scenes around him. In the winter, when many cowboys were unemployed, Russell lived in various frontier towns and painted pictures to pay for his food and lodging. Friends said Russell also began carrying modeling clay with him during this time, making small sculptures during his spare moments.
Russell likely would have continued as an itinerant cowboy and amateur artist for the rest of his life had he not met a young woman named Mary Cooper. In 1896, the couple married, and Russell’s new wife began to guide him toward a serious career in art. Russell found there was a growing market, especially among wealthy East Coast residents, for images of the disappearing American frontier. By 1920, he was making frequent trips to New York to paint western pictures for an increasing number of supportive patrons.
Russell rarely painted or sculpted from models or from life, relying on memory to recreate scenes from the life he had experienced. He had no real art training and little interest in the formal aesthetics of art. Though critics often ignored or derided his work, the public loved it. Initially, Russell’s paintings and sculptures documented his early life as a cowboy, but later in his career, he also began to depict scenes from the lives of American Indians and historical figures. Many of his later paintings express Russell’s melancholy attachment to the unspoiled West and his dislike of the “progress” that had plowed under the Great Plains and fenced in the open range.
Russell spent his final years in Great Falls, Montana, where he continued to paint until his death in 1926."

I can think of few things more genuine and sincere as a Charlie Russell painting. More American than Norman Rockwell-Russell was without artifice in his depictions.
Thanks, Charlie, for getting it all down before it went.
The way Charles Russell captured the feeling and the moment of this period of American History is simply brilliant. I feel like I have been transported back in time by a painting...Amazing.
Thank you! Haven't seen a lot of these 😊
Very fine & beautiful art work sure enough! Just saw a story about Charles Russell.
The wild West must have been a fine time to be alive as long as a body had the intestinal fortitude.
Russell fan since I was a boy. Never seen the entire collection. Thanks for this!
Gorgeous paintings
I lived in an old Victorian style house half a block away from the CMR museum where his home still stands. It made me wonder if he had ever spent time in my house during his lifetime. Thanks to him I get to see what my home looked like 100 years before I was born.
This is the cowboy / artist we learned about on our Road Scholar trip.
Yes
I remember visiting the CMR Museum in the early 1960s. Memorable. Now I like to paint western scenes.
Thank you

I have a CW Russell painting. Not sure if it's authentic or not.
The painting at 19:00 absolutely calls to me. So beautiful and foreboding. I wish I knew the name of it.
Yeah, so sad.The name is "Mourning Her Warrior Dead ".

Does anyone know anything about prints? I have four prints from Dick Jones Picture Co "Jerkline" "Jerk Down" "Serious Predicament" and "A bronc to breakfast". They're pretty large and in frames
Does anyone know the name of the very first painting
The Medicine Man. 1908.
@@demej00 thank you !!!found a really nice framed print of it at a thrift store for 8 dollars !
@@blackcatlures Love CM Russell. Grew up in MT. Am painting Western scenes. We're connected.
Ganz hervorragende Bilder ...Bei seinen Rinderdarstellungen hat er immer die gleiche Farbe gewählt. Vordere Hälfte des Tieres braun ..hintere Hälfte weiss.......immer der gleiche Typ . Helmut Aufrecht
His work is great compared to stubbs in my opinion and stubbs was before Mr Russell however they both painted differently
NICE PRESENTATION, but I find the cjinese music not just odd, but totally mischosen and inoperative.
What would you like
@@user-vf7qk6jo2k TUMBLING TUMBLEWEEDS by The Sons Of The Pioneers. Or anything from Ernest Tubb, T.Ritter or Gene Autry ...
