Frederic Remington

About the exhibition

The Amon Carter Museum in Fort Worth presented a Frederic Remington retrospective in 1973, accompanying Peter Hassrick’s study of the artist. On the Bridle Path, Central Park, New York, an 1889 pen, ink, wash and gouache drawing, is documented as catalogue number 13 and reproduced on page 19. The lender’s history uses the title Frederic Remington in the Southwest. A contemporary newspaper announcement conflicts with the specialist catalogue’s day dates, which remain withheld. The full original checklist has not yet been examined. A second documented drawing, “Bill and Phip,” Kansas (1883), combines studies of a seated man smoking a pipe and a standing cook beside a stove.
