Framed Hand Colorized Signed Print of L.A. Huffman’s “Trailing Sheep” - L.A. Huffman (1835-1931), an immensely influential and historically important frontier photographer of the American West, documented Montana’s cowboys, ranchers, landscapes and native populations in their natural states. “Trailing Sheep,” depicts a flock of sheep grazing on the slim pickings of sage brush and other desert shrubs. This massive herd extends down into the valley below which looks to be nearly picked clean. This remarkable hand- colored print resides in a frame measuring 17 inches by 14 inches with beige
and olive matting, it is hand marked at the bottom “#300 Trailing Sheep, Powder
River Badlands, neg print and copyright by Huffman/ Milestone Mount 1884.” CONDITION: Excellent with some light storage and handling marks on the frame with a distinct image and bright coloration. This would make an amazing addition to any western gun room or office.
Provenance: The John Fox Collection.
Estimate: 2,500 - 4,000
