Featured in this lot is this commissioned original painting of John Wayne as Rooster Cogburn and cast circa 2015 by South Korean artist Dae H. Cho. Provenance: From The Gary Jacobson Estate. Gary Jacobson: Dae H. Cho was born in South Korea in the late 40's His father was a well known artist in South Korea.

He has operated Cho's Fine Art Studio ever since, has been in a few galleries and done work with the colleges. He is married and has 2 sons. Dae Cho would do a few shows a year, some in large malls and one year went to Great Falls for C M Russell Week. I met Dae Cho about 2003 and we became food friends. Dae Cho had a special talent to paint seascapes but could paint anything you asked him to do. I had him do some Western Paintings and John Wayne Paintings, and every year we would meet and I would add a few more to my collection. He painted a lot of excellent Religious Paintings and would donate them to his Church for fund raising. Over the years I tried to support his art and he will always be a friend and special person to me. I think hi is one of the better artists on John Wayne Paintings.
