Russell, the great Western painter and sculptor, set out from Missouri for the Montana Territory in 1879, when he was 15. The free-spirited teen, given to skipping school, grew into an adventurous young man who rode and worked with horses daily and was eager to capture in his art what he saw and experienced, the rare spirit of the region. Also a good storyteller, he eventually published his tales in magazines.
