DALLAS, TX.- Heritage Auctions' November 12 American Art auction offers a diverse grouping of 150 paintings, works on paper, and sculpture sourced from private collections nationwide.

The auctions' diverse offerings feature some of the most recognizable names in American Art:

Hudson River School:
George Inness' breathtaking Evening Glow from 1883, depicting a man with a cane strolling across a wheat field illuminated by a fiery orange sunset, marks a turning point in the artist's career and stands as one of his first and finest "aesthetic" paintings ever accomplished (est. $120,000-$180,000).

Western Art:
One of the most sought-after lifetime castings of Frederic Remington's iconic Broncho Buster #17 (est. $200,000-$300,000), this fine example of a Roman Bronze Works castings was sourced from a private California collection.

Walter Ufer's harmonious A Ride in Autumn (est. $300,000-$500,000) exemplifies the vibrancy and poignant realism of the Taos School.

Illustration Art:
To the Vanquished, considered one of Joseph Christian Leyendecker's best Saturday Evening Post covers to ever come to the auction block (est. $100,000-150,000).

Modernism:
Green Meadow, 1957 (est. $80,000-$120,000), by Milton Avery was executed during a time of transition to simplified forms and blocks of color that we have come to associate with the artist's most notable works.
