Frank Tenney Johnson comenzó su carrera como ilustrador para Field and Stream Magazine en 1904. Johnson vivió en Nueva York desde 1904 hasta 1920; sin embargo, viajó al gran Oeste americano para reunir material de partida para su trabajo de estudio.





El viaje que Johnson realizó en 1912 a la Reserva Blackfoot de Montana con Charles Russell fue un momento crucial para el artista; tras este viaje, se estableció en Colorado durante muchos años. Tras un breve regreso a California, el artista pasó muchos años en su nuevo estudio de Cody, Wyoming.





Las obras de este periodo le valieron a Johnson los títulos de "Maestro de la pintura americana a la luz de la luna" y "Maestro pintor del Viejo Oeste". El cuadro "Scouting" muestra una idílica escena nativa; los estudios y experiencias de primera mano de Johnson con los nativos fueron un tema recurrente en su obra.
