| Carl Rungius was born in near Berlin, Germany, in 1869, where he studied at the Berlin School of Fine Arts, Academy of Fine Art, and the School of Applied Arts. He immigrated to New York in 1894, and spent 10 years contributing commercial work to magazines, before devoting himself to fine art. Like his grandfather, Rungius was an avid hunter, and spent prolonged periods in the Pacific Northwest, eventually building a studio in Alberta, Canada. His paintings of big game, painted en plein air, were prized for their accuracy and highly collected. Among his many collectors was Theodore Roosevelt.
