This lot is the book, "The Masterworks Of Charles M. Russell, A Retrospective Of Paintings and Sculpture", edited by Joan Carpenter Troccoli 2009, University of Oklahoma Press, Norman; a handsome book which showcases many of his best known works and chronicles the sources and evolution of his style.

Russell: A Catalogue Raisonné", edited by B. Byron Price. In the decades bracketing the turn of the twentieth century, Charles M. Russell depicted the American West in a fresh, personal, and deeply moving way. To this day, Russell is celebrated for his paintings and sculptures of cowboys at work and play, his sensitive portrayals of American Indians, and his superlative representations of landscape and wildlife. Here are iconic images that have defined the West in the popular imagination for more than a century. The volume boasts reproductions, most in full color, of more than 150 of Russell's finest works in oil, bronze, and mixed media. Select examples of his drawings, watercolors, and illustrated letters as well as archival photographs place Russell's paintings and sculpture in historic and artistic context. This sumptuous volume is an essential addition to the library of every aficionado of American western art. In its pages readers will discover the work of a man whose ideal vision of the American experience continues to stir the spirit nearly a century after his death.
