On June 21, the world’s finest Western painters and sculptors gathered in Oklahoma City to celebrate the best of Western art at the “Prix de West Invitational Art Exhibition & Sale” awards presentation and dinner. The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum has organized the event since 1973.
Painter James Morgan won the prestigious Prix de West Purchase Award—and a place in the museum’s permanent collection—for his oil painting “White on White.” He rendered on the snow-covered marshlands two swans, taking a well-earned break on their long migratory path.
