About the Item
Nison Tregor
Born in Lithuania of Polish parents, Nison Tregor studied sculpture at the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts. After immigrating to the United States he worked in the New York studio of Malvina Hoffman, who had studied with Auguste Rodin. He created busts of several eminent Americans including Presidents Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower, as well as several foreign heads of state and other celebrities. He spent the final years of his life working in Europe. This bronze likeness of Ignacy Jan Paderewski is the last portrait posed for by the renowned Polish pianist, composer and statesman. The artist completed the work using the clay bust he had been working on at the time of Paderewski’s final illness and subsequent death.
This particular bronze sculpture has a beautiful patina and the sitter has a refined and elegant posture that is beautifully captured in bronze.

Native American Girl with Doll
By Dave Powell (American, b. 1954)
Signed on Back
17.5" x 8"
Dave Powell is a native son of Montana, in a world of change and transition; few can say they have roots in a single geography that go back four generations. Dave's pedigree in art is just about as deep. He is the son of artists Ace Powell and Nancy McLaughlin Powell. That heritage leads back to the likes of Charlie Russell and Joe De Young, both famous for their abilities to "tell the story" through their art. His father, Ace Powell, was a prolific Western artist whose first childhood paint-box set was a gift from Charlie and Nancy Russell.
Dave became a serious student of art in his mid-teens, and has been a professional artist most of his adult life. Over the years he has worked with Bob Scriver, Ned Jacob and Robert Lougheed. Dave will be the first to give thanks...
