There has never been a better time to purchase a Morgan Weistling Fine Art Limited Edition. As we write this, five of Weistling's limited editions have sold out and several more are in Low Inventory, and the market for his originals is just as hot. For the second year in a row, Weistling took both the Artists' and Patrons' Choice Awards at the 2008 Masters of the American West Exhibition and Sale, and his original painting sold for $286,100—nearly three times the reserve price. The painting? The First Dance, 1884 Americana.
The idea for the painting, begun as a sketchbook drawing years ago, had taken years to come to fruition. In addition to finding the perfect models, costumes and composition, Morgan did not want to begin on the painting until he could give it his full concentration. Finally, one day last year, he began to create what John Geraghty described in Western Art Collector as "his signature work, an absolute master work." | |
