Treasured Landscapes

Arthur Burdett Frost
ca. 1885

Frost was best known for his illustrations of sporting life in the late 19th century. Theodore Roosevelt used several of his artworks to illustrate his book, Hunting Trips of a Ranchman: Sketches of Sport on the Northern Cattle Plains. Frost later experimented with chromolithography and the concept of sequential drawings, a method that later evolved into the comic strip.
