Robert Ottokar Lindneux was an extraordinary artist with an ardent passion for the American West. His long life spanned almost a century of American history from 1871 to 1970. Trained in art by European masters in Germany and France Robert was inspired by Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show to capture the American Western frontier on canvas. He worked as an outdoorsman, cowboy, and horse wrangler and also spent time with various Native American tribes learning about their way of life. He captured on canvas historical events, people, animals, and landscapes all so that it can be shared with you today.

 

This web site has been created by the family of Robert Lindneux for all those who enjoy history, fine art, Native American culture, Western Americana, and American Culture. Our goal is for you to know of the incredible contributions Robert Lindneux made to Western American Art and to provide you with accurate information about Lindneux and his life.

If you are in the area of one of the museums that have one or more of Lindneux’s paintings we strongly encourage you to go visit them in person. Pixilated images on a computer screen don’t do justice to seeing in person a piece of fine art by Lindneux or any of the other extraordinary artists you will find there. Witness for yourself a piece of history frozen in time for you to ponder, think about and enjoy.
