Gary Huigsbregste (American, v. 1953). "Englewood, Colorado #4 (gas truck)" color print, 1985. Hand-signed and inscribed with title and date on the verso. A large-scale color photograph by Gary Huigsbregste - his veristic, regionalist vision of a scene in Englewood, Colorado featuring railroad tracks in the foreground and middle ground, and a gasoline truck driving through the town beyond. Huigsbregste's images of the American West have been exhibited in Robischon Gallery and collected by the Denver Art Museum. He is also a professor at Colorado State University. A mesmerizing photograph that demonstrates the power and elegance of realism. Size of image: 12.5" L x 16" W (31.8 cm x 40.6 cm) Size of sheet: 15.875" L x 19.875" W (40.3 cm x 50.5 cm)

This photograph was in the collection of pioneering patron of the arts, Ginny Williams. Sotheby's hosted a series of auctions featuring art and photography in the Ginny Williams Collection in June and July of 2020. Their press release began as follows, "Born in rural Virginia in 1927, Ginny moved to Denver, Colorado in the late 1950s with her husband, Carl Williams. An avid photographer herself, who studied with Austrian-American photojournalist and photographer Ernst Haas, her collecting journey began with classical figurative photography. Her passion and keen eye eventually prompted her to open her namesake gallery in Denver in the 1980s. While her passion for photography never waned, remaining a primary focus of both her gallery and private collection, her voracious curiosity quickly widened her curatorial focus. Over time, Ginny became increasingly courageous and experimental in her selections, venturing into Abstract Expressionism and Contemporary Art and following her artists themselves through gallery shows and museum exhibitions. As the years passed, Ginny became as much of a trailblazer as the artists she collected."

Provenance: private Idledale, Colorado, USA collection; ex-Ginny Williams collection of Denver, Colorado
