| Dean Cornwell (1892-1960) A Hasty Exit, 1942 oil on canvas 41 ½ X 49 ½ in. |
Heritage Auctions' upcoming sale of American Art Including Western, California, & Golden Age Illustration should rightfully be called the Heritage Hodgepodge. As the auction title suggests, it features Western and Californian art, and Golden Age illustration, but it also has much more: Abstract Art, art by 19th century Academically-trained artists, Boston School artists, Regionalist Art, Expressionism, naïve art – and the list goes on. But despite its lack of focus, this is by no means an auction of leftovers; all of the different categories boast great examples of art. Of course, since this is Heritage, the strongest offerings are in the illustration field with works by such greats as Cornwell, Dunn, Lovell, Leyendecker, and Rockwell. There is something here for nearly everyone.
Select highlights from the auction will be on view from April 11th through the 16th in New York City; April 21st through April 24th in Beverly Hills; and April 21st through the 26th in San Francisco. All of the lots will later be on view at Heritage Auctions' Dallas facility from May 8th through May 10th. The auction itself will take place at 10:00 AM CT on the 26th.
