This image came from the Frederic Sackrider Remington (1861-1909) family estate. This is not the firearms Remmingtin, alhough they were related. This Remington was the painter famous for his genre paintings of the Anmerican West. While still studying, he traveled widely inckuding areas west of the Mississippi River. He did many sketches and took photographs, some of which would become the basis for future paintings. He made a specialty of depicting Native Americans, cowboys, calvalry, horses, and other aspects of life on the plains. His despiction of horses were especially admired. He also did some now famous sculptures. His work was some of the best-loved images of the Ameruican Old West. here were also some works of Mexicans. Remmington married Eva Caten (1884). The family had two children, a boy and girl. We have a snapshot that we believe to be the two children which seems reasonable given the date of the marrage. They look to be about 6-16 years old. The boy has Dutch boy bangs. They are done up in fine summer clothes for an outing, presumanly on the family estate. Remington estate 'Endion' was in New Rochelle, New York. The boys wears a classic tunic suit, a style popular in the 1900s and 10s. His older sister wears a long dress and highly decorated hat. The long hen reflects that of ab older teen. Both wear black long stockings.
