He died suddenly at the age of forty-eight following an unsuccessful appendectomy. In 1909 he completed construction of a large house in Ridgefield, Connecticut. After 1905 he frequently abandoned the highly realistic, action, filled painting style that had won him this renown, preferring a softer, more atmospheric rendering of more imaginative themes. During this period he enjoyed even greater success and recognition. After 1900 he did much of his painting during summers on Inglenuek, a small island in the Saint Lawrence River near Ogdensburg. Remington visited Cuba in 1897 and as an illustrator and correspondent during the Spanish-American War. In 1895, the same year that the first collection of his magazine articles was published, he began to work as a sculptor, attaining immediate acclaim. He generally summered in the Adirondacks. In 1892 he traveled to Europe and North Africa. Remington frequently returned to the West to sketch and report, sometimes traveling with cavalry troops as he sought the flavor of the lives of the soldiers and cowboys. Already an accomplished painter, the following year he had his first solo show of his paintings of life and adventure in the American West. In 1889 he was able to buy a large suburban house.

He achieved success and wide reputation as an illustrator in just a few years. In 1886 he studied for one term at the Art Students League. He traveled through New Mexico and Arizona Territories before moving in 1885 to New York, where he worked as an illustrator specializing in Western subjects. While in Kansas City in 1884 he began to support himself with the sale of paintings locally and of illustrations to publishers in New York City. Coming into an inheritance at the age of twenty-one, he went to Kansas, purchased a sheep ranch, which he sold in less than a year, and then invested in a hardware store and later a saloon, both of which failed. Deciding to become an artist, he enrolled in the Yale School of Fine Arts, where he studied drawing until the death of his father cut short his college career after a year and a half He worked at a number of jobs in Ogdensburg and Albany, made a brief trip to Montana Territory, and worked as a clerk in Albany. He was born in Canton, New York, but after the age of eleven was raised in nearby Ogdensburg.
