Sheridan's Campaign, Custer's Demand by Charles Schreyvogel

Charles Schreyvogel (January 4, 1861 – January 27, 1912) was an American painter of Western subject matter in the days of the disappearing frontier. Schreyvogel was especially interested in military life.

He was born in New York City and grew up in a poor family of German immigrant shopkeepers on the Lower East Side of New York. He also spent part of his childhood in Hoboken, New Jersey. Schreyvogel was unable to afford art classes and he taught himself to draw. In 1901, his painting My Bunkie was awarded the Thomas Clarke Prize at the annual exhibition of the National Academy of Design.
