Description
This is an original Scribner’s For July magazine cover from the 1890s-1910s, attributed to Frederic Remington—one of America’s most celebrated illustrators of outdoor adventure and Western subjects. The dynamic composition captures two men navigating whitewater rapids in a canoe, with forested hills rising in the distance and additional vessels visible downstream—a signature theme in Remington’s depictions of “stiff currents” and wilderness exploration.
The illustration style is consistent with Remington’s distinctive approach to early 20th-century American magazine illustration, emphasizing dramatic action and naturalistic detail. Created as a promotional cover for Scribner’s magazine, this print was likely displayed at newspaper stands during its era.
This is an authentic original lithograph, not a reproduction. Professionally acid-free conservation mounted and linen-backed, ready to frame. Excellent condition with only very minor handling wear at edges.
We have been unable to locate any other documented copy of this Scribner’s cover in the market, making it a rare addition to Remington enthusiasts’ collections.
