Post War & Contemporary Art  24 May 2022

I favor a picture which arrives at its destination without the evidence of a trying journey rather than one which shows the marks of battle.

Charles Sheeler

This present lot is one of several that come from an important private collection in Texas. The collectors, generous patrons of the arts, amassed an exceptional selection of works bridging the modern and post war period in America.
