It's Signature Week at Leland Little. Join Claire Fraser, Vice President of Estates & Consignments and Fine Art Director, along with Brian Kuebler, Director of Decorative Arts, Sculpture, & Ceramics, as they discuss important works and collections from our Signature Week Auctions.

Spend a moment with Fine Art Director, Claire Fraser, as she sets out across the American landscape, opening in North Carolina with a breathtaking coastal scene by native artist Kyle Highsmith. From there, she travels north to New England, where Fraser presents a peaceful boathouse scene by Joseph McGurl, before continuing westward to Texas, with William Slaughter evoking a boundless horizon, seamlessly merging land and sky. Her journey then reaches the west coast with Robert Wood’s striking portrayal of Mt. Baldy, its snow-covered summit rising in quiet grandeur. Together, these great landscapes invite us to experience the beauty of America every day.

The tour continues with Decorative Arts Director, Brian Kuebler, who invites you to explore three works by Dave McGary, whose masterful bronzes reflect a deep and abiding respect for Native American culture. Each sculpture demonstrates a refined command of realism, expressed through nuanced detail and a strong sense of presence. These rare works offer a compelling balance of artistry and cultural reverence, standing as distinctive and highly collectible examples of the artist’s vision.
