Albert Bierstadt - The Rocky Mountains, Lander's Peak - Hand-colored steel engraving - 16 3/4 x 28 1/4 inches - Signed in plate lower right Bierstadt 1868 <br>Titled lower right <br>Painted by A. Bierstadt lower left <br>Engraved by J. Smillie lower right <br>Entered According to Act of Congress in the Year 1866 by Edward Bierstadt in the Clerk's Office of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York lower center <br>16 3/4" x 28 1/4" <br> <br>This is an original done by Albert Bierstadt a few years after the original painting that was done in oil on canvas in 1863. <br> <br>The original painting is oil on canvas; 73 1/2 x 120 3/4 in. (186.7 x 306.7 cm) <br> <br>This painting is the major work that resulted from the artist's first trip to the West. His intention to create panoramic views of the American frontier was apparent by December 1858, just before he embarked on the trip. In early 1859 he accompanied a government survey expedition, headed by Frederick W. Lander, to the Nebraska Territory. By summer, the party had reached the Wind River Range of the Rocky Mountains in what is now Wyoming. Bierstadt dubbed the central mountain in the picture Lander's Peak following the colonel's death in the Civil War. This was one of a number of large works painted after Bierstadt's return from these travels. It was completed in 1863, exhibited to great acclaim, and purchased in 1865 for the then-astounding sum of $25,000 by James McHenry, an American living in London. Bierstadt later bought it back and gave or sold it to his brother Edward. <br> <br>Albert Bierstadt (BEER stat) was born in Prussia, which was a large German state. (This land today is in Germany, Poland, and Russia.) He came to America with his parents when he was two years old. <br> <br>As he grew up, he taught himself to paint. Then he decided to go to Dusseldorf, Germany to study with a group of artists, which today is referred to as the “Düsseldorf style”. They toured Europe. Bierstadt first started painting landscapes in Europe, then he came to America. <br> <br>He painted the magnificent scenes in Yosemite. When people saw the paintings, they wanted to go there and see it for themselves. As a result, many people went to Yosemite, and the land was no longer unspoiled, Bierstadt went elsewhere to paint. <br> <br>In 1859 the artist made a trip to the Colorado and Wyoming territories with Frederick Lander, who was in charge of a government survey expedition. He was inspired to paint this beautiful scene of the Rocky Mountains. Indians are encamped in the valley. This is a large painting; six feet high and ten feet long.

Juan Carlos Collada - Honey Pot - Hand Dyed & Painted Feather Butterflies - 48 x 48 inches - WHAT INSPIRES YOU? <br> <br>"I think the beauty of being an artist is that you have the capacity to find inspiration in many, many places. I find beauty and inspiration in nature, in people’s minds, books… it’s kind of endless. You could put me in an empty room with three inanimate objects and I can pretty much guarantee you I’m going to try to make something that pleases my eye or makes that room a feel a little better for me. When I was a child, I often ignored my toys to build or make something out of found objects around my house or yard. In a way, I wish I still lived in a place where there were fewer choice. These days if you want some inspiration, you need only to turn on your iPad and google something. I have so many ideas at once that I sometimes don’t know where to start." -Juan Carlos Collada

Charles F. Lummis - A Cowboy and His Cattle - Vintage Silver Gelatin Photograph - 2 ¼ x 3 ¼ inches - In 1884, Charles Fletcher Lummis, a 25-year-old Harvard dropout, set out on a trek from Cincinnati to Los Angeles in a pair of knickerbockers and street shoes to take a job as a reporter for the Los Angeles Times. He began to shed the prejudices born of his upbringing as a New England Yankee along the way, and developed a deep and abiding affection for the natural beauty and cultural diversity of the Southwest, where he remained until his death in 1928. <br> <br>Lummis first gained a national following with widely reprinted, weekly letters that he wrote on his “tramp across the continent.” He went on to become one of the most flamboyant and influential personalities of his day as a book author, magazine editor, preserver of Spanish missions, advisor to President Theodore Roosevelt and a crusader for civil rights for minority groups. Lummis was especially passionate about the mistreatment of American Indians, with whom he lived for several years. He was one of the first white Americans to assail unjust policies towards the original settlers of the region he loved, and his decades of relentless advocacy on that issue ultimately turned the tide. <br> <br>Provenance: From the private collection of well-known artist Mr. Edward Borein, Santa Barbara

Vintage Posters - 101 Ranch Real Wild West - Vintage Stone Lithograph - Full sheet: 43 3/4 x 30 1/2 inches - The 101 Ranch, founded in 1892 by George W. Miller’s three sons, Joe C., Zack T., and George L., were well-known for the elaborate roundups they stages there. After sporadic shows at expositions, they finally made it a permanent organization and, with the help of Edward Arlington, The Miller Bros. 101 Ranch Wild West opened in 1908. They had a good deal of success and, as the posters here indicate, their show was quite lavish and borrowed heavily on the themes, and eventually on the personnel, of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West. They were one of the buyers in the auction of animals and materials of the Buffalo Bill-Pawnee Bill organization held in Denver in September 1913 to satisfy the claims of the U.S Printing and Lithographing Company. In 1914, the Miller Wild West went to England, only to have their horses and vehicles impressed by the government there as the war broke out. For the 1915 season, their big star was Jess Willard, Kansas cowboy who became world heavyweight champion by knocking out Jack Johnson. Enter Bill Cody: He struck a deal in which he received a daily retainer and part of the profits for his appearance that year with them. It was to be his last year as showman. After the season closed on November 4, 1916, he was exhausted and two months later, on January 10, 1917, he died in his sister’s house in Denver, at the age of 71. <br> <br>This poster is composed of two vertical half-sheets – are in the Strobridge tradition of fine circus posters for which his firm was so well-known. There are hundreds of interesting details in such posters. If these emphasize one point it is the elaborate and expensive publicity practice of holding a parade of the entire cast of a circus or wild west show, with parade wagons, band, and all animals and personnel, down the main street of each city prior to show time. Both “101” and Buffalo Bill engaged in these lavish parades. In the poster to the left we see one of the many features of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West borrowed by the Miller 101 Ranch troupe: the “Equestrian Foot-Ball” scene which, we are told, “makes college foot-ball tame in comparison.” And at the bottom we see President Theodore Roosevelt waving from his stand, above the sign, “That’s Fine! That’s Bully!” and at right shaking hands with a cowgirl he calls “The Bravest Girl in All the West.” She is Lucille Mulhull, whom Will Rogers called “the first Cowgirl” and who was a champion at roping and tying wild steers. In 1900, when she was not yet 15, Roosevelt saw her perform at a Cowboy Tournament staged at the Rough Riders reunion in Oklahoma City and was in fact quite impressed by her daring feats. The poster to the right gives the full sweep of the Street Parade – so vast that it is split in two sections and its winding pattern as it comes from top to bottom adds to the enormity of it all. Note the parade wagon with the “Historic and Instructive” tableau of Pocahontas and Captain John Smith. This was a street parade not to be missed and having witnessed it, the public would be sure to follow this enormous pied-piper into the arena.
