"The Opening of the Fight at Wounded Knee" is a notable work by Frederic Remington, an American painter, illustrator, sculptor, and writer who specialized in depictions of the American Old West. This particular piece is a representation of the Wounded Knee Massacre, which occurred on December 29, 1890, when the U.S. 7th Cavalry Regiment opened fire on a band of Lakota Sioux at Wounded Knee Creek in South Dakota, resulting in the deaths of numerous Native Americans, including women and children.

Remington's work, created in the aftermath of the event, captures the chaotic and violent nature of the confrontation. The painting is significant for its historical context and is often examined for its portrayal of the tension and tragedy of the American frontier, especially in the interactions between the U.S. military and Native American tribes. Remington's style, characterized by dynamic compositions and a focus on the gritty realism of frontier life, is evident in this artwork.

The painting serves as a visual historical record and has been the subject of analysis and critique regarding its accuracy and the perspective it presents. As with many of Remington's works, "The Opening of the Fight at Wounded Knee" reflects the artist's interest in the themes of conflict and survival in the American West, while also contributing to the broader cultural narrative about the period.

Frederic Remington's legacy as an influential figure in American art is underscored by his works such as "The Opening of the Fight at Wounded Knee," which continue to be studied and displayed in art institutions, offering insight into the complex and often contentious history of the United States during the closing years of the frontier era.
