LOT NOTES
Ken Carlson is one of America's most revered and celebrated wildlife painters. Painting from first-hand observation, his artworks are imbued with a sense of natural grandeur but also emotional reverberance. The current lot perfectly captures this powerful emotive quality, which is a hallmark of Carlson's work. Carlson has been the recipient over many years of a myriad of awards for wildlife art, including being the 1999 Winner of the Frederic Remington Award, and recipient of the National Museum of Wildlife Art's Major General and Mrs. Don Pittman Wildlife Award in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, in 2001 and 2004. An avowed conservationist, it is perhaps fitting that in 1998 he was named a "Living Legend for Wildlife Art" by the Foundation for North American Wild Sheep. In addition to many other museums and important private collections, Carlson's works are in the permanent collections of the Leigh Yawkey Woodson Museum in Wausau, Wisconsin, and the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson, Wyoming.
