SynopsisIn the pages of Montana's Charlie Russell, the Montana Historical Society offers you its collection of Russell art. Each of the 230 artworks has been painstakingly photographed using state-of-the-art equipment to show off the masterful details of Russell's brushwork. The colors have been carefully proofed against the originals for a perfect match. The result is a catalog of Russell's art as you've never seen it before. Stare down the herd bull as a hundred buffalo surge out of the Missouri River bottom. Jump clear of a cowboy on a twisting bronc that scatters the morning coffee and biscuits. Feel the spine-tingling drama as Indians pause behind a rocky outcropping, setting an ambush for white travelers in the valley below. Through Charlie's art and through text written by Russell experts Jennifer Bottomly-O'looney and Kirby Lambert, you will experience Montana as Charlie knew it. From Montana he learned how to shift for himself in rough country. And wherever Charlie went, his hands were busy-sketching or painting on any scrap he could find, or modeling bits of wax into tiny figurines. His experience as a cowboy gave these artworks an authenticity not found in the work of any other western artist. Even as the Montana frontier transformed itself into a modern state, Charlie lived for the past, capturing in his artwork "trailsthat had been plowed under." The buffalo days and the free range have long since ended, but Charlie's art endures. Through his work, you can experience the Montana that was-and the best collection of that work is found in the galleries of the Montana Historical Society and in Montana 's Charlie Russell., Immerse yourself in Montana's Charlie Russell. In this comprehensive catalog, the Montana Historical Society shares the talent, the mastery, the technique, and the stories behind Charlie's artworks in its world-class collection., In the pages of Montana's Charlie Russell, the Montana Historical Society offers you its collection of Russell art.
