I spent two full days in the first row front and center at an estate auction for the contents of a farm retreat of the Academy Award winning actor Jack Palance. This painting is one of two sold during the auction. It sold for an amazing $22,000. I took a lot of photos from my perch in the front row. More coming later.
BTW: Palance currently resides in retirement on his 1,000 acre cattle ranch in Tehachapi, California)
