After jack and marilyn fritz moved from New Canaan, Conn. to a log house in Jackson Hole, Wyo. in 1990, they fell in love with wildlife art. So in 1996 they bought three paintings by Carl Rungius, the early-20th-century German who hunted and painted big game in the American West. The paintings, of an elk, a bear and goats, cost $150,000 each. Shortly thereafter, the Fritzes signed a deal with Jackson Hole's National Museum of Wildlife Art to donate the paintings to the museum in installments of 10% a year.
