Book Description
"As I embarked on this novel journey exploring how each of these works figured into the history of art, I never dreamed how much I would learn about both my grandfather and his collection after a decade of close observation." In After the Hunt, Adrienne Ruger Conzelman catalogs the art collection of her grandfather, arms maker William B. Ruger. The American West and sporting art are most prominent in his collection. Seth Eastman's "Winnebago Encampment," Alexander Phimister Proctor's "The Indian Warrior," and Frank Tenney Johnson's "Cowboy on Horseback" are examples. Features 83 photos of William B. Ruger's private collection including such artists as Frederic Sackrider Remington, Maxfield Parrish, Albert Bierstadt, Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait and others.
