Frank Tenney Johnson (1874-1939) was a distinguished American artist acclaimed for his masterful portrayals of the American West, particularly its iconic cowboys, Native Americans, and landscapes. Born in Big Grove, Iowa, Johnson's love for art was evident from a young age, and he pursued formal art education at the Art Institute of Chicago.

Inspired by the allure of the Western frontier, Johnson ventured out to experience life as a cowboy in Wyoming. These firsthand experiences provided him with an intimate understanding of cowboy culture and allowed him to imbue his paintings with authenticity and depth.

Johnson's artistic style was characterized by his exceptional use of light and shadow, especially in nocturnal scenes. He became renowned for his captivating paintings of cowboys and horses silhouetted against moonlit skies, which contributed to his nickname "The Cowboy Artist."

His remarkable talent earned him widespread acclaim, and he exhibited extensively, gaining recognition both nationally and internationally. His works were collected by notable figures, including President Theodore Roosevelt.

Today, Frank Tenney Johnson's art continues to captivate art enthusiasts, preserving the spirit and romance of the American West for generations to come. He remains an enduring figure in Western art, celebrated for his skill in capturing the rugged beauty and timeless allure of the frontier.
