Illustration Art Collection of Carl Pugliese
Bruneau & Co. Auctioneers is proud to present the illustration art collection of Carl J. Pugliese (May 25, 1916 ? October 3, 1982). Carl was an American painter, illustrator, sculptor, and historian, who from an early age had a passion for the American west as well as United States military history which was cemented during his four years of service in World War II. Following his honorable discharge from the Army, he enrolled in the School of Visual Arts in New York City where he studied under Harry Fisk, Ben Dale, and Burne Hogarth, honing his own skills as an artist. Carl also had a passion for great illustration art and collected works by Howard Pyle, Tom Lovell, J.C. Leyendecker, Norman Price, Dean Cornwell, Herbert Morton Stoops, amongst many others. He was friends with many of the artists and in the collection are a number of drawings and paintings signed to him. He had a keen eye and collected a large number of wonderful pieces which will be coming to the market for the first time in this auction.
