Remington Original Photograph

The albumen print shows Remington holding a painter's palette and brushes on the landing of an unfinished building. The photograph is docketed on verso, "Fred Remington on stage at Leary's Studio." Under this, the former owner of this photograph, photography collector and dealer Howard Daitz, wrote Remington's birth and death dates and basic biographical information. In a third hand, the artist's name is written in pencil in the upper right corner. The photograph measures 8 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches attached to 7 x 9 inch board and both show some overall sunning, fading and aging. The two lower corners are bent at their tips. There is a crack in the albumen print at midpoint of left margin of about two inches appears to have been secured by affixing the print to the hard board. Our research suggests this is a unique image of Remington. Autograph
