After a bitter divorce, Maynard Dixon was turned down by the New York woman with whom he'd fallen in love. Seeking solace, the American painter and his 7-year-old daughter Constance left San Francisco for Glacier National Park in August 1917, staying for several weeks at a Blackfoot camp there.

Maynard Dixon's painting "Lone Bull" depicts a young Blackfoot man watching over a herd of grazing horses in Montana. This piece is one of several Dixon works up for auction in Reno on Saturday.
