Lost in a Snowstorm-We Are Friends, 1888, Charles M. Russell

In this Charles M. Russell painting, we see two cowboys and a group of Indians peacefully encounter each other in a field during a severe snowstorm.  This picture is an example from the Amon Carter Museum’s superb collection of works by Frederic Remington and Charles M. Russell, two of the greatest artists of the American West. This collection is unique, for nowhere else can a visitor see and compare so many masterpieces by these two artists. With their fascinating details and hypnotic aura of romance, these works provide an unparalleled journey into the Old West.
