Charlie Russell knew the west. His art depicts action as though he were able to clip a single frame out of a movie.

Other artists, Frederick Remington for example, did almost as well, but I think Russell is incomparable.

Some artists, like Karl Bodmer, painted Native Americans in their actual dress and habitat. His paintings are faithful to detail but lack the power of Russell's, in my opinion. However, we owe a lot to him for capturing an ephemeral moment in history with paintings such as this one.
