About Frederic Remington Museum

The Frederic Remington Art Museum is home to a comprehensive collection of original Remington paintings, sketches and sculptures, as well as a treasure trove of personal effects and correspondence that serve to bring the artist and his vision to life.

 
Remington created more than 3000 signed paintings and drawings, 22 subjects in bronze, and wrote 8 books. In his later years, he moved away from illustration work and developed an impressionistic style and created an amazing body of night paintings, called nocturnes.

 
The main building of the Frederic Remington Art Museum was built in 1810 and after Frederic Remington’s death in 1909, this home became the residence of his wife, Eva. Eva lived here with her sister, Emma, from 1915 to 1918. The museum was originally founded in 1923 as the Remington Art Memorial in 1923. The original collection, derived from the estates of Eva and Emma, included Frederic’s sculptures, oil paintings, family possessions, personal art collection and studio contents.

 
The museum also hosts a myriad of events throughout the year.
