- Lot Description
Frederic Remington (American, 1861-1909), "The Pioneer" - Collier's Weekly, copyright 1904, this image reproduced later. Frederic Remington was quite famous by the time he signed a contract with Collier's Magazine in 1902. Remington agreed to provide Collier's with a painting per month for the whopping price of $1,000.00 each. Collier's would print his painting as a color halftone in the magazine, usually a two-page centerfold. Unlike the earlier work he did for Harper's Weekly, Harper's Monthly, The Century, Scribner's, etc., Remington was given free reign to paint whatever subject he wished, and his compositions did not have to illustrate a text. Size: sheet measures 20.5" W x 14.25" H (52.1 cm x 36.2 cm)
According to the Frederic Remington Museum, "Instead of a single, black ink printing, the color half tones were made with a multiple screen process, and each image was created with four sets of halftone dot patterns: black, red, blue, and yellow. These were more crude in their effect than four-color halftone prints today, but they represented a great leap forward in reproduction at the turn of the last century.
These Remington images for Collier's not only set Remington's artistic choices free of reference to text, the magazine's production of prints to compliment the in-magazine images brought Remington's published art from the bookshelf to the wall in a big way."
