SANTA FE, N.M. — Fans of contemporary Western art packed Altermann’s Camino Del Monte Sol galleries on Saturday, August 13, eager for a crack at the collection of the late Robert M. Eagle. A determined phone bidder won “Old Town,” a view of the sleepy New Mexican town of Cerrillos in winter, for $96,000, including premium. The oil by Western hall of fame artist Clark Hulings (1922–-2011) was a favorite of Eagle’s.
