A well-known painter and illustrator of battle scenes of Army and Navy life, Rufus Zogbaum created depictions of military exercises that were widely published in magazines in the late 19th Century. His Civil War mural, the First Minnesota Regiment at the Battle of Gettysburg," was created for the state capitol building in St. Paul, Minnesota. He was the leading artist/ correspondent of the Spanish American War.
His reputation for depicting skirmishing cowboys preceded that of Frederic Re (showing 500 of 2618 characters). |
