His great uncles were bishops of the Episcopal Church. Robert Jenkins Onderdonk studied art at the National Academy of Design and the Art Students League of New York in the 1870s.[3] Among his teachers were William Merritt Chase[3] and James Carroll Beckwith. R. J. Onderdonk went to Texas in 1878[3] William Robert Negley, a friend from Maryland, had already moved to Texas to begin ranching. Robert married Emily Gould in 1881 and they had three children.[2] He hoped to execute portraits for rich Texas citizens and make enough money to travel to Europe.[3] He eventually stayed in Texas for thirty-eight years, where he painted and taught. In San Antonio, he founded an art association for women painters, the Van Dyck club, which later became the San Antonio Arts League; his daughter Eleanor was an important member and organizer.[6] In 1893 in Dallas, he co-founded the Art Students League of Dallas,[4] pupils of which displayed their paintings each year at the State Fair of Texas, in Dallas. Onderdonk's masterpiece, the 1903 painting Fall of the Alamo, was displayed at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis, and is now held in the Texas State Archives. Occupying central position in the painting is Davy Crockett, a depiction reproduced countless times in print; Crockett is portrayed in iconic style, "swinging his flintlock over his head to club the Mexicans advancing through a hanging cloud of gun smoke."[7] According to Fisk's A History of Texas Artists, he would have been ranked one of America's finest artists if he had spent more time painting rather than teaching.[3] Two of R. J. Onderdonk's three children[1] also made their mark in Texas art: Eleanor (1884–1964)[8] was a respected miniaturist,[6] and Julian Onderdonk (1882–1922) became known as the "Bluebonnet painter."[6] Julian attended the West Texas Military Academy founded in 1893 (now the Episcopal School of Texas) and, like his father Robert, studied painting in New York with William Merritt Chase before returning to Texas in 1909.[9] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/fon07|title=Onderdonk, Robert Jenkins|last=Church|first=Diana|work=Handbook of Texas Online|accessdate=20 September 2010}} 2. ^1 {{cite book|last=Onderdonk|first=Elmer|title=Genealogy of the Onderdonk family in America|year=1910|pages=216|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5TpBAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA216}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite book|last=Reily|first=Nancy Hopkins|title=Georgia O'keeffe, a Private Friendship: Walking the Sun Prairie land|year=2007|publisher=Sunstone Press|isbn=978-0-86534-451-8|pages=141–43|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=o2xJ0ZZWmyEC&pg=PA142}} 4. ^1 {{cite book|last=Reitzes|first=Lisa B.|title=A national image: the American painting and sculpture collection in the San Antonio Museum of Art|year=2003|publisher=U of Texas P|isbn=978-1-883502-11-9|pages=112|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ipJj-4-xLu4C&pg=PA112|author2=Stephanie Street |author3=Gerry D.
