NANCY POWELL MCLAUGLIN, MONTANA (1932-1985), UNTITLED NATIVE AMERICAN IN HEADDRESS ON HORSE, OIL ON CANVAS, 15 3/4"H X 19 3/4"W (SIGHT), 21 1/2"H X 25 1/2"W (FRAME)Nancy Powell McLauglin, Montana, (1932-1985) untitled Native American in headdress on horse, oil on canvas Signed lower right The following information was submitted by Allison Gunderson, daughter of the artist. Born in Kalispell, Montana, Nancy McLaughlin became noted for her depictions of Indian faces from babies to men and in her later years, the portrayal of Indian legends. Her passion in her later years was portraying Indian legends. She worked mostly with pencil and pastels in the early days but moved on to watercolor, oil, and sculpture. During her career, McLaughlin lived in Washington, Arizona, and Texas. She drew mostly horses and animals during her early age. She graduated from Flathead High School, which has several works by her in their library. She attended the University of Montana to get a teaching degree and study art. There she met Ace Powell, twenty years older than she. They married and started a family in Hungry Horse, Montana. In 1964, the house and studio and art gallery in Hungry Horse burned to the ground. The cause was never determined for sure, but their personal and private art collection and Indian artifacts were all destroyed. The pressure of this calamity was too much and the couple divorced, leaving four children, David, Christa, Allison, and Ann, all who have remained in the northwest. McLaughlin had had a life-long struggle with asthma and respiratory illnesses, and this was the cause of her death, which occurred in Newport, Washington. oil on canvas Dimensions: 15 3/4"H x 19 3/4"W (sight), 21 1/2"H x 25 1/2"W (frame)

Attributed to Theodore Sydney Moïse (Charleston/ Natchitoches 1806-1883), "Lieutenant-Colonel William Miller Owen, C. S. A. (1834-1893)", c. 1865/67, oil on canvas, unsigned, 30 in. x 24 in., in original oval giltwood frame. $25000/35000 Provenance: By descent to the present owners. Note: This striking portrait of a returning war hero must have been painted within a year or two after Miller Owen's return to New Orleans in June 1865. His Petersburg wound of the preceding August is prominently included, so the portrait cannot date before its healing; but that city was already being evacuated, as he hourly defended its trenches after returning from his three weeks' recuperation, through April 1865; and he made only a short stopover in a damaged Richmond, as well as a flying visit of a few days to New York, before returning South. During those intervening months he was (as he put it) "emphatically and completely 'busted'," and certainly could not have afforded a fine portrait from an artist of this eminence; indeed, he was obliged to devote his first few months back in New Orleans to re-establishing himself on a sound financial footing, before he and his brother opened the partnership they formed with General Longstreet in the last weeks of 1865. Miller Owen's success in that endeavor, however, was painfully short-lived: within two years Longstreet had resigned from their firm, and in fact was obliged shortly afterward to bail out his friend by purchasing Owen's entire houseful of furnishings. It is therefore clear for financial reasons, as well as from the sitter's conspicuous youthfulness in this portrait, that he must have commissioned it as soon as he could after his return to New Orleans. He was aged 31 1/2 on his return to Louisiana, and cannot be much older than 33 in this image. During those years the most prominent artist painting in Louisiana in this style was T. S. Moïse, who had been (and was still loosely) associated with Trevor Thomas Fowler (1800-1868); this painting is characteristic of both their styles, but especially of Moïse's. Moreover, two of Moïse's best portraits of this period are ovals of exactly this same size, representing the sister of Owen's wife, Harriet Sophia Zacharie, and her husband, Major Thomas Sydenham Hardee—with whose uncle, Gen. W. J. Hardee, Miller Owen had served on Lee's staff. Through both family as well as professional connections he was therefore in a familiar relationship with Moïse, and we may thus confidently conclude that this painting is a work by that artist of 1865/1867. General William Miller Owen (having held that rank in the Louisiana National Guard, 1880-1888) died in New Orleans of tuberculosis on his 59th birthday, 10 January 1893. He had been married in 1867 to his second cousin, Caroline Amanda Zacharie; he was survived by her, as well as by their two sons, Allison Owen II, Commander of the Washington Artillery, and Edmund Pendleton Owen (a bachelor), as well as by his brother Ned in New York, and one of their sisters in Ohio. His important personal archive of Civil War papers and books, and Louisiana documents (dating back to 1818, when members of his family first acquired property in Iberville Parish) are also offered in this sale.

Kentucky Rifle. Description Circa 1830 to 1840. OL: 58". BL: 43 - 1/2". TB: Octagonal. LM: Percussion. PB: 4-piece. S: Plain maple. Unsigned but attributed to T. Allison. School: Western Pennsylvania. 3 brass inlays and 1 silver. This Kentucky rifle resembles “T. Allison’s“ work, especially the elaborately pierced and engraved patchbox which fills the entire right-hand side of the stock. Of special note, there is a silver inlay of crossed cavalry sabers between the upper end of the finial and the lock panel itself. A large “half-moon” brass inlay fills the cheekpiece and there is a scalloped and engraved sideplate. There is a wood repair (1/2” W x 14” L) which is on the left-hand side of the stock. It meets the new replaced forestock at the junction of the rear ramrod ferrule; the upper ferrules as well as the rear ferrule are replacements, as is the nose-cap. Overall, this rifle with its elaborate workmanship in metal is worthy of a better finish and repair.Condition (Fair).
