    • "Born in St. Louis in 1884, Remington Schuyler was an artist most famous for his illustrations and portrayals of the American West, including Siouxan peoples and cowhands . . .

Schuyler's work was also featured in the Saturday Evening Post and in several books, including The Wagon Wheel by William Patterson White and Daniel Boone, Wilderness Scout by Stewart Edward White.
      Schuyler is most associated with the American West, specifically Rosebud Reservation, and with the New Rochelle Art Association, which included Schuyler and Norman Rockwell as founding members. An accomplished artist, Schuyler studied at the National Academy in Rome on a scholarship, as well as the Art School of Washington University.
