The auction mainly featured nineteenth- and early twentieth-century paintings. In the end, all of the top lots were contained to the first ten pieces sold. <em>The <\/em><\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"><em>W<\/em>hite-Headed Eagle<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0by John James Audubon hit its high estimate on the nose and took the top spot at $600K (or $756K w\/p). The work is interesting because of Audubon\u2019s role as both an artist and an ornithologist. Appropriately, the painting shows a bald eagle in the midst of enjoying its catch of the day. The work is the same image featured in Audubon\u2019s magnum opus,\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Birds of America<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, a massive book of ornithological illustrations considered one of the greatest works on natural history ever created.

The rather large canvas, measuring 40 x 60 inches, shows an outdoor scene of a lakeside in a wooded, mountainous area. Given the size of the painting, it\u2019s surprisingly easy to spot a small town across the water, marked by the white pinnacle of what is most likely a church. The area depicted is likely somewhere in New Hampshire since Durand spent his summers there in 1855 and 1856, around when he created this painting. Unfortunately,\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Lake Hamlet<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> fell slightly short of its $400K low estimate, with the hammer falling at $390K (or $491.4K w\/p).<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_46860\" style=\"width: 276px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Screenshot-2023-01-18-at-11.28.24-PM.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-46860\" class=\"wp-image-46860 \" src=\"https:\/\/rehs.com\/eng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Screenshot-2023-01-18-at-11.28.24-PM-300x201.png\" alt=\"A landscape painting likely in New Hampshire of a lake in the mountains.

First,\u00a0<\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Mountain Out of Mist<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> by Albert Bierstadt is an oil painting executed in 1889 showing a rather calm, cloudy day in the Rocky Mountains. Bierstadt is considered one of the finest American painters of the nineteenth century, particularly one specializing in western landscapes. Therefore, it\u2019s not terribly surprising that Sotheby\u2019s specialists assigned a $300K to $500K estimate range. Sharing the third place spot with Bierstadt is Frederic Remington\u2019s <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bronco Buster<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, one of the most famous sculptures in American history. The sculpture shows a cowboy breaking in a wild horse, with Remington conveying an incredible sense of movement. The horse is rearing up on its hind legs while a stirrup flaps freely, unanchored by the man\u2019s boot, and a short whip in his right hand flutters in the air while the bronco tries to throw him off. Several castings of the sculpture are now housed in prominent collections, including the Denver Art Museum, Theodore Roosevelt\u2019s house at Sagamore Hill out on Long Island, and the White House Collection (with its version of the <\/span><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bronco Buster<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0on display <a href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/2\/20\/United_States_President_Barack_Obama_bends_down_to_allow_the_son_of_a_White_House_staff_member_to_touch_his_head.jpg\/1200px-United_States_President_Barack_Obama_bends_down_to_allow_the_son_of_a_White_House_staff_member_to_touch_his_head.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in the Oval Office<\/a> during the Obama administration). The version offered at Sotheby\u2019s on Wednesday is number 49, cast in 1899. Unfortunately, the Remington fell just short of its $400K low estimate.
