28 GUSTAVE BAUMANN (1881–1971) Ranchos de Taos, 1930 woodblock print, 38/125 9 ¼ x 11 in (23.5 x 27.9 cm) signed and editioned lower right: Gustave Baumann / # 38 - 125 titled lower left: RANCHOS DE TAOS Feeling constrained by city life, Gustave Baumann headed west from Chicago in 1918 and never looked back. After spending his initial summer in Taos, with the vibrant art colony there, Baumann traveled to Santa Fe where he found the home he had been seeking. Baumann’s time in New Mexico and the surrounding region proved revolutionary for his style. Abandoning the muted tones and rigid lines of his earlier prints, a brighter and bolder style burst forth as he found inspiration in his immediate surroundings, as seen here in Ranchos de Taos, and Rio Tesuque. His fascination with the distinct culture and ceremonies of the Southwest, such as Eagle Dance Ceremony – Tesuque Pueblo and El Velorio also endured throughout his career. A 648 page catalogue raisonné of Baumann's color woodcuts, authored by Gala Chamberlain after 35 years of research has just been published by Rizzoli/Electra, and states: "Endowed with a deft hand and an eye for luminous color, Baumann (1881-1971) transformed American woodblock printing over his seventy-year career. An expressive carver, Baumann handled the entire printing process himself, making him a key figure in the American Arts and Crafts movement. German-born, Baumann settled in Santa Fe and became a central figure in the artistic community. His brilliantly colored landscapes of the Southwest and California coastline, celebrated in his day, are highly sought after by collectors today."

74 FREMONT ELLIS (1897–1985) El Quique Church, ca. 1940 oil on board 10 x 8 in (25.4 x 20.3 cm) signed lower left: FREMONT F. ELLiS dedication inscription on verso The youngest member of Santa Fe’s modernist group, “Los Cinco Pintores,” Freemont Ellis was born in Virginia City, Montana in 1897. The son of a dentist and itinerant carnival performer, Ellis spent his childhood traveling from one mining town to the next, receiving little formal education. It was during a brief visit to New York City where he first encountered the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and particularly the work of the Impressionists, an event that would change the course of his life. Ellis studied for three months at the famed Art Students League, and the training he received inspired him to move westward in 1919 and join the growing artistic community of Santa Fe. A series of financial hardships first led him to leave New Mexico, where he had married and attempted to settle, for California. There he worked as a photographer, a skill that led him back to Santa Fe where his knowledge and techniques lent themselves easily to painting and stylistic development. In 1921, he joined four young painters – Josef Bakos, Walter Mruk, Will Shuster, and William Nash – to form “Los Cinco Pintores.” The short-lived group – “Los Cinco Pintores” disbanded in 1926 – was no less influential, bringing about a radical awareness of modern art which contributed to the success and foundation of the Santa Fe artist colony, though Ellis himself was never considered a truly ‘modern’ painter. His tackling of color and shape, as demonstrated in the small jewel that is El Quique Church, evoke his own photographic sensibilities and love for the New Mexican landscape through impressionistic strokes and a sensitivity towards light. Ellis actively painted and exhibited in both Santa Fe and Los Angeles California until his death in 1985, his romantic and arresting southwestern landscapes enduring against the tide of modernism. His work is part of the permanent collections of the Museum of New Mexico, University of California, Los Angeles, the Thomas Gilcrease Institute of American History, and the El Paso Museum and the Art Institute.

77 JOSEPH FLECK (1892–1977) View from Fleck’s Talpa Residence, 1950 oil on board 20 x 24 in (50.8 x 61.0 cm) signed lower left: Joseph Fleck Born in Austria in 1892, Joseph Fleck studied at the Vienna Royal Academy of Fine Arts and served briefly in the Hungarian army during World War I, after which he established himself as a portrait painter. Immigrating to Kansas City, Missouri in 1932 where he worked as chief designer in a Tiffany stained-glass window workshop, Fleck first encountered the works of the Taos Society of Artists in a local gallery. So inspired was Fleck by the sun-drenched landscape and picturesque view of Indian culture, he moved to Taos permanently within a year. Here in Taos, where he would spend the majority of his life, Fleck’s work evolved into two distinct eras, the first from 1924 to 1942, and the second dating from post-World War II when evocative, incandescent landscapes dominated his oeuvre, such as the three present works on offer. Combined with his academic training in Austria, Fleck would adapt his palette to the brightness of the Taos Society, emulating the expansive valleys and endless skies. His landscapes often verged on a spiritual expressionism; some show quiet regional structuralism derived from local mountain forms of adobe building shapes. The Indian people and the Taos landscape, like the one viewed from his residence on the Talpa Ridge, fascinated Fleck. From here “he surveyed the panorama of valley at his feet and Picuris Mountains in the distance. This was a place where he could create." (Joseph A. Fleck, Jr., A Fine Sense of Poetry: The Life & Art of Joseph Amadeus Fleck, p.151). During his lifetime, Fleck became a respected member of the Taos colony and was widely exhibited outside the region, winning numerous awards. More than any other artist in the Taos group, Fleck lived to see the profound changes in that unique place of constant artistic interchange and intense accomplishment. Fleck died in California in 1977. Provenance: The Artist, by descent in the family to the Collection of Joseph Fleck, III Literature: Joseph A.

From his birthplace in Alton, New York, his family moved frequently, yet Baldridge received art training from age ten, first studying with the famous newspaper illustrator Frank Holme. He graduated from the University of Chicago with a degree in English Literature, took a job in commercial art, then worked as a field artist during World War I. After the war, he sketched in China, contributing drawings and articles to Scribner's Magazine. Baldridge and his wife traveled widely in the 1920s -- to the Far East, Afghanistan, Persia, Africa -- and the diverse and colorful cultures they encountered became inspiration for Baldridge's book illustrations. After 1932, Baldridge returned to the United States, where he continued to illustrate books and worked in film, designed stage sets, and wrote his autobiography. Frequent visits to the West in the 1920s, 30s, and 40s introduced southwestern themes to his art. In 1952, the Baldridges settled permanently in Santa Fe, where he worked two more decades, painting the desert and mountain country of New Mexico in watercolor and oil.

Albert Krehbiel was a well‑known and highly regarded artist in Santa Fe during the years surrounding 1920; so much so that the Museum of New Mexico provided him with a studio in the historic Palace of the Governors. His art works created during this time show the profound effect Santa Fe had upon his painting style. These works are fresh, joyous and spontaneous experiments in local sun‑drenched color and loose forms. It is not specific geographical details of Santa Fe that Krehbiel was interested in representing, but its dramatic atmospheric effects and its environmental moods. Color, more than any other pictorial element, was the key factor in Krehbiel's new‑found visual vocabulary and it formed the basis of every line, every passage, every moment he expressed in his Santa Fe scenes. 87 ALBERT KREHBIEL (1873–1945) Purple Mountain Majesty, 1920-1924 oil on canvas 18 1/5 x 21 1/8 in (46.2 x 53.7 cm) inscribed verso: PURPLE MOUNTAIN MAJESTY c.1920 - 1924 / OIL ON CANVAS / 18 X 21" / SFO182162 Provenance: The Estate of Albert Krehbiel $5,000 – $7,000

Some credit his deep understanding of the West. But maybe more than anything else, it is his uniquely modern style, one that gave the West a new language of expression that makes Maynard Dixon's work so exciting.”–– Paul Bingham, Chairman, Thunderbird Foundation for the Arts, Mt. Carmel, Utah Maynard Dixon began sketching at the age of ten and at eighteen, encouraged by his hero Frederic Remington, he enrolled in the San Francisco School of Design. Charles Lummis became a mentor and advised him early in his career to leave California, and "travel East to see the real West". Dixon did just that, traveling the many roads that crisscrossed the West: Montana, Utah, Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico. Lasting weeks, even months, these trips provided Dixon with the inspiration to create. He was forever drawn to the vistas and peoples inhabiting these remote western lands. In 1919, Dixon met the photographer, Dorothea Lange, who had a new vision, and the simple compositions she made in black-and-white melded with Dixon’s increasingly modernist response to the power of low horizons and the lines of the landscape. The two married in 1920, and it was from this time forward that Dixon’s work became reductive, relying less on paint and more on powerful and simple compositions to deliver the strong messages he intuited from the land and people around him. The marriage to Lange ended in 1935, but in 1937 he married the artist Edith Hamlin and settled in Utah, re-connecting with the earth after the Great Depression years in San Francisco. Dixon spent the final years of his life in Southern Arizona, creating works with an increasingly spare use of paint, the land flattening and almost abstracted under the soaring western skies. He often used the human form to allude to more ethereal subjects, as evidenced in this image of a cowboy on horseback, painted the year before the artist died. Dixon suffered from emphysema and so it was with a full sense of his own mortality that he created this striking image. The horse poised above a sun-drenched valley with a homestead and his beloved mesas brushed in the distance, the cowboy turned back in his saddle, his hand beckoning or waving to that which is behind him, exudes a powerful, elegiac sense of poignancy.

Jackson / Cheyenne / 24 inscribed verso: Blackfoot Indian at Grand / Teton Wyoming Best known as a pioneering photographer of the American West, William Henry Jackson’s paintings evoke the virtues of an early America. Born in Keesville, New York in 1843, Jackson began working as a photographer in the years prior to the Civil War. After serving as a soldier in the Union’s Army of the Potomac, Jackson traveled west to California, sketching and shooting images along his way. His distinctive photographs reveal an affection for the land and a respect for the technological progress of man. After settling a photography studio in Omaha, Nebraska in the late 1860s, Jackson became the official photographer for the Hayden Survey of Territories from 1870 to 1878, and traveled extensively throughout the West. His images of Yellowstone from 1871 were instrumental in the federal government’s allocation of the region as a national park. While working as a photographer in Colorado in the later part of the 19th century, Jackson often reproduced his photographs in watercolor and oil, carefully preserving the beauty and detail he captured in his photographs. Having received no formal training, W. H. Jackson’s works are remarkable examples of a discerning artist’s eye. Jackson first explored the Grand Tetons of upper Wyoming during the Hayden Survey of 1872, finding the region rich with subject matter for his lens and his mind’s eye. Blackfoot Indian at Grand Teton, WY from 1924 is an exceptionally rare painting, capturing a solitary, vigilant hunter abroad in the silent dawn.

PATRICIA JANIS BRODER COLLECTION
Pat Broder (1935-2002) was an avid horsewoman who stabled her horses in the hills of New Jersey, but became a passionate aficionado of the west, and most particularly the art and culture of the indigenous people of the region. Her first book was the groundbreaking classic, Bronzes of the American West (Harry N. Abrams, Inc., NY, 1974), which won the prestigious Herbert Adams Memorial Medal for “Service to American Sculpture” and Best Art Book by the National Academy of Western Art. Over the next 25 years she constantly toured and revisited the west, writing eight more art books. As she traveled and explored, she became familiar with local artists, their histories, beliefs and ceremonies, as well as museums, gallery professionals, and collectors. She also accumulated and collected the artworks that held her under their spell. Some Western ‘moderns’ – Doel Reed, John Sloan, Kenneth Adams among them - found their way into her home, but the great preponderance of her collection is in the work of the multitude of pueblo and indigenous artists she learned about, sought out, befriended and championed in her writings. Her last book, Earth Songs, Moon Dreams: Paintings by American Indian Women (St. Martin’s Press, NY, 1999) was a radical early focus on the contributions of Native American women from tribes across the United States, Alaska, and Canada. In 1984 Broder was awarded the National Academy of Western Art Trustees Gold Medal for Outstanding Contribution to the West through her books and lectures. Pat’s sons, Cliff and Peter have been the custodians of The Broder Collection for nearly 20 years; here and throughout the 2019 auction it is our honor to offer for the first time some of the highlights of this remarkable Collection.

casein on paper 15 ¾ x 11 ¾ in (40 x 29.8 cm) signed lower right: Oscar Howe Born in South Dakota in 1915 on the Crow Creek Sioux Reservation, Oscar Howe studied at the Studio of the Santa Fe Indian School from 1933-1938. After serving in World War II, Howe went to college on the G.I Bill and received his M.F.A at the University of Oklahoma. Developing a unique style which took inspiration from traditional ‘straight line’ and Tohokmu (spiderweb) painting, Howe’s later works, such as the current lot, Medicine Man, would be compared to Cubism, a genre he rejected over his desire to illustrate the lives of his American Indian community and his refusal to accept that art of the American Indians could not evolve stylistically over time. Howe is credited with blazing a trail for contemporary Native American artists, and has been exhibited both stateside and internationally in over fifty solo exhibitions.

The basic objectives of the group were to educate the public to the aesthetic and cultural values of the Hopi, to experiment with new ideas and techniques using traditional Hopi designs, to control their own market, and to research and document Hopi history through visual art. All members of The Artist Hopid lived on the mesas and the first annual exhibition took place in 1974 in conjunction with the Hopi Arts & Crafts Cooperative Guild on Second Mesa. The Artist Hopid received a grant in 1976 provided by both The National Endowment for the Arts and the Arizona Commission of the Arts & Humanities to send thirty-one paintings on a national tour. The exhibitions included traditional Hopi craft arts and petroglyphs alongside the contemporary works in order to give the viewers greater context and understanding. Members of The Artist Hopid also gave demonstrations and participated in readings to audiences across the country. The artists of this group are best known however for paintings using vibrant colors inspired by murals from Hopi prehistoric sites. The following lots from Broder’s very personal collection and unique access to the Hopi exemplify the continuous visual vocabulary of Hopi art and traditional culture, blended with distinct contemporary techniques that underscored this remarkable artistic movement in the latter part of the 20th century.

He became best known for his collaborations with his wife, the potter Maria Martinez, first discovering in 1918 the techniques to create the matte and glossy finishes of the black-on-black ware which would make them famous. The national appeal of these pottery works was in part thanks to the art deco stylings of the 1930s and 1940s and the thoroughly fresh look of decorative art on a black ground. Julian Martinez also received several commissions for murals, which are exhibited at the Santa Fe Indian School, the School of American Research in Santa Fe, and in Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado. The current lot, Two Snake Dancers, is an exceptional and rare example of the artist’s modernist compositions and skills as a draughtsman.

WOMEN IN THE WEST
There are no records of who the artists of the prehistoric eras were, but studies of many early ethnographers and cultural anthropologists indicate that women often were the principal artisans in Neolithic cultures, in which they created pottery, textiles, baskets, painted surfaces and jewelry. Extrapolation to the artwork and skills of the Paleolithic era suggests that these cultures followed similar patterns. Cave paintings of this era often have human hand prints, 75% of which are identifiable as women's. 1 Virginia Scharff, in her introduction to Independent Spirits: Women Painters of the American West, 1890-1945 pointed out that, “Women artists have worked in what would come to be called the American West as long as humans have inhabited the terrain between the ninety-eighth meridian and the Pacific Ocean. Navajo women wove. Pueblo women made pottery. Pomo women shaped baskets. Between 1890 and 1945 women artists of all kinds worked in the West in great numbers, creating objects so abundant and diverse as to defy facile generalization.” 2 The West's dynamic growth certainly altered the role of women, often allowing new avenues of opportunity within the prevailing Anglo culture. At the same time, boundaries of femininity were pushed earlier and further than in other parts of the country. While American women as a whole did not win the right to vote until 1920, women in most westerns states had the vote before 1915, Montana had sent the first woman to the U.S. Congress, and Wyoming and Texas had each elected the first women governors! Sometimes women artists have struggled with the claims of marriage, family, motherhood – Georgia O’Keeffe famously left Stieglitz to seek solitude in New Mexico, as did Janet Lippincott (see Lots 269-272) – but for others painting was a family tradition: pueblo artist Tonita Pena taught her son, Joe Herrera (see Lot 197) the fundamentals of painting, and influenced Santa Clara painter Pablita Velarde (see Lot 248), who in turn was the mother of Helen Hardin (see Lot 249). Despite the cultural revolution that arose from the Depression and World War Two, these obstacles endured into the social and political turbulence of modern times. Nevertheless, Mary Gabriel, in her groundbreaking book, Ninth Street Women writes, “It’s instructive as well as comforting to know how other women have managed and what other women have dared.” 3 The 2019 Santa Fe Art Auction has an exemplary selection of those who have dared and managed on offer this year, paying tribute not only to artists, but also to those women who have championed art as gallery owners, collectors, critics, educators and curators.

In an article published in the November, 1997 edition of Southwest Art magazine, Sally Euclaire describes Chalee, “Standing tall at well under 5 feet, she sported full bangs and a waist-length braid, body-hugging Capri pants, high-tech sneakers, and New Age crystal jewelry. She was clearly a woman with an image." Chalee's forest compositions often featured frolicking deer as can be seen here in Pat Broder’s classic The Forest, painted in 1936. It has been proposed that Pop Chalee's work might well have served as inspiration for the 1942 American animated drama film by Walt Disney, Bambi. Her magical forest fantasies were in fact exhibited at Stanford University in 1936 before the sketches for Bambi commenced in 1937!

WOMEN IN THE WEST JANET LIPPINCOTT
Janet Lippincott was born in New York City into a life of privilege and was exposed to the cultural life of the city at young age. She lived in Paris for a while when she was young and there she saw her first artwork by European modern artists. Back in New York at age fifteen she took a life drawing class at the Art Students League and later enrolled there full time to continue her art education. She was a member of the Women’s Army Corp during World War II where she served on General Eisenhower's administrative staff. Lippincott had a strong personality, as evidenced by a story she liked to tell of the day General George Patton came into the office demanding to see Eisenhower right away. Lippincott told him to sit down and be quiet until it was his turn. A loner, she was married once for ten days, “That was 10 days too long,” she is reported to have remarked. In 1949, after the war, she enrolled in Emil Bisttram's School of Art located in Taos on the G.I. Bill, and moved to Santa Fe in 1957 where she built an adobe home and studio on Canyon Road. She was one of the few Southwestern artists at that time who was working exclusively in the modern tradition. "After the war, I came out here, and no one was doing any modern painting. Here I came with my screwball ideas and shook everybody up.” In a Southwest Art article in 1980 she stated, “Abstract painting is an intellectual process. To be a modern painter and to make a truthful statement is the sum total of all I am and what I am continually striving to create. I am a painter and my feelings are all I can contribute to this world.” Throughout her career Lippincott explored multiple media. She continued for most of her life to maintain the discipline of drawing through figure classes in Santa Fe, was one of the first artists to create lithographs at the Tamarind Institute, and in the 1970s embarked on sculpture, when the Shidoni Foundry opened in Tesuque. The Santa Fean Magazine wrote upon her death in 2007, “Compositionally akin to Matisse and Picasso… Lippincott ended up an artist’s artist, and created lasting images of the female form and abstract arrangements of emotionally rich and inviting shapes. She, like Georgia O'Keeffe and other women working in the modernist vein had to often fight for the opportunities afforded male artists of the period. But whatever obstacles she faced she never wavered from her strong and committed artistic vision. The best of her work stands equally alongside noted artists of the period.” Her work is held in distinguished public and private collections throughout the United States. There are currently both a biography being written about the artist and a documentary film project.

MRS. HAROLD C. PRICE JR. COLLECTION
Mrs. Harold C. Price, Jr. (1927-2018) was a member of the visionary Price family of Bartlesville, Oklahoma. H.C. Price famously commissioned Frank Lloyd Wright to build the Price Tower in Bartlesville as a modern corporate headquarters for the H.C. Price Pipeline Company. Completed in 1956, the 19-story building was based on a design originally conceived for St. Mark's-in-the-Bouwerie in New York City, but once built on the prairie, Wright called this skyscraper “the tree that escaped the crowded forest.” Lavish in its materials and detailing, the Price Tower is Wright’s tallest built project. The 221-foot-tall Price Tower is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is one of the American Institute of Architects’ seventeen most significant examples of Frank Lloyd Wright’s architecture. Wright became a close friend of the Price family and in 1954 was commissioned to design the Price family’s landmark residence, “Hillside”, also in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. Carolyn had a deep affinity for the Southwest and spent a great deal of time in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She enjoyed close friendships with many of the artists represented in her collection, including longtime friends Laura Gilpin and Richard Schmid. We are privileged to offer an intimate selection of treasured artworks from Mrs. Price’s collection including paintings by Susan Hertel, Richard Schmid and Nancy Guzik as well as early Navajo photographs by Laura Gilpin.

oil on canvas 48 x 59 ½ in (121.9 x 151.1 cm) Susan Bright Lautmann Hertel was born in Evanston, Illinois in 1930 and grew up in Highland Park outside of Chicago. Childhood summers in Wisconsin and Arizona led Hertel to become fascinated by the natural world, particularly animals, and Native American culture. She studied drawing, design, sculpture, and painting at Scripps College in California and also spent time at the Kann Institute in Los Angeles. She assisted and collaborated with Millard Sheets on a number of projects in various media, but painting came to dominate Hertel’s own oeuvre. Establishing Barking Dogs Ranch with her then-husband, Carl, in 1958, her work was influenced by the company she kept during that period: horses, goats, cats, chickens, and dogs. The couple relocated to New Mexico in 1980 and, after surviving breast cancer and divorcing her husband, Hertel struck out on her own in 1987, and began to write poetry and produce work inspired by the culture and landscape that surrounded her. The paintings offered here from Carolyn Price’s collection demonstrate Hertel’s deep commitment to and celebration of the joy of quotidian routines, and her unique capacity to reveal beauty in the most unexpected corners of domesticity. She died near Cerrillos, New Mexico, in 1993
“These days as I move from room to room Go outside here and there The dogs all move with me. It is almost as if we have no hides Or boundaries And move together like a cloud of life Liking itself. If you said, what do you raise up there I’d have to say – horses and dust. The early sun haloes the horses And shines like alabaster Through their streaming tails There are rainbows in the air When I spray down the dust
Provenance: Elaine Horwitch Galleries The Collection of Mrs. Harold Charles Price, Jr., Bartlesville, Oklahoma
Lately, friends have moved , an old horse dead, Bull dozers in the hills, All this change and losing… Emptiness is just a space for light To rush in to, Incandescent. Let me be Shined through Like a mare’s tail in the morning.”

TERMS & CONDITIONS OF SALE The following Terms and Conditions of Sale are the Santa Fe Art Auction Limited Co.’s (“Santa Fe Art Auction”) and its agents’ and consignors’ entire agreement with the prospective bidders, bidders and buyers relative to the lots listed in this catalogue. The lots will be offered by the Santa Fe Art Auction as agent for the consignors, unless the catalogue indicates otherwise. 1. The Santa Fe Art Auction operates as an agent of the seller only. It is not responsible in the event any buyer or seller at the auction fails to live up to their respective agreements, including failure of the seller to deliver any property to buyers. The Santa Fe Art Auction assumes no risk, liability, or responsibility beyond the limited warranty contained herein. (a) All property is sold “AS IS.” There are no representations or warranties that extend beyond these Terms and Conditions of Sale. All works shall be available for examination prior to the sale. The Santa Fe Art Auction, and its agents and consignors, make no representations or warranties as to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, correctness of the catalogue or description, including, but not limited to, the authenticity, the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, dates, exhibitions, literary or historical relevance of any property, and, no statement anywhere, whether oral or written, whether made in the catalogue, an advertisement, a bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, or elsewhere shall be deemed such a warranty, representation or assumption of liability. Nor are there any representations and warranties, express or implied, as to whether the purchaser acquires any copyrights, including, but not limited to, any reproduction rights in any property. Contents of this catalogue are subject to change or supplementation before or during the sale, including the sale of any lot. 2. Prospective bidders should inspect the lots before bidding to determine condition, size and whether or not the lot has been repaired or restored and to investigate all other matters relating to the lot that is of material importance to the prospective bidder. 3. A buyer’s premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the purchaser as part of the total purchase price. If paying by cash or check, the purchase price will be the sum of the final bid price plus a buyer’s premium of 17% of the final bid price of each lot up to and including $500,000, 15% of the excess of the final bid price above $500,000, and 12% of the excess of the final bid price above $1,000,000, plus any applicable sales tax, shipping and handling charges. The buyer’s premium is calculated separately for each lot. If paying by credit card, the purchase price will be the sum of the final bid price plus a buyer’s premium of 20% of the final bid price for each lot up to and including $500,000, 18% of the excess of the final bid price above $500,000, and 15% of the excess of the final bid price above $1,000,000, plus any applicable sales tax, shipping and handling charges. 4. Unless exempted by law, the Buyer will be required to pay all applicable state and local sales, gross receipts, and compensation tax. Proof of exemption in the form of a current Non-Taxable Transaction Certificate must be provided at registration. In the event of deliveries outside the state, it is the Purchaser’s responsibility to pay any applicable compensating use tax of another state on the total purchase price. If a buyer requests that artwork be shipped to an address in New York State, we must collect New York sales tax due to an affiliated business located in New York City under recent legislation (Part P-1 of Chapter 57 of the Laws of 2009). • Why Santa Fe Art Auction Collects Sales Tax: New Mexico requires a seller of goods to register with the New Mexico Department of Taxation and Revenue and collect and remit sales tax if the seller maintains a presence within the state. More specifically, tax laws require an auction house, like Santa Fe Art Auction, with a presence in New Mexico, to register as a sales tax collector, and remit sales tax collected to the state. Unless exempted, New Mexico sales tax is charged on the hammer price, buyer’s premium and any other applicable charges on any property picked up or delivered in New Mexico, regardless of the state or country in which the purchaser resides or does business. • Certain Exemptions: New Mexico allows for specified exemptions to its sales tax. For example, a registered re-seller such as a registered art dealer may purchase without incurring a tax liability, and Santa Fe Art Auction is not required to collect sales tax from such re-seller. As sales tax laws vary from state to state, Santa Fe Art Auction recommends that clients with questions regarding the application of sales or use taxes to property purchased at auction seek tax advice from their local tax advisors. 5. The Santa Fe Art Auction reserves the right to withdraw any lot before or during the sale and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. 6. Except as may be announced by the auctioneer, all bids are per lot, as numbered in the catalogue. 7. The Santa Fe Art Auction reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the Buyer, subject to reserves. In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event of doubt as to the validity of any bid, the auctioneer will have the final discretion to determine the successful bidder, cancel the sale, or reoffer and resell the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Santa Fe Art Auction’s sale record shall be final and conclusive. The Santa Fe Art Auction, in its discretion, may execute orders or absentee bids as a convenience to clients who are not present at the auction; however, the Santa Fe Art Auction is not responsible for any errors or omissions in connection therewith. 8. If the auctioneer, in his or her discretion, determines that any bid is below the reserve of the lot, he or she may reject the same and withdraw the lot from sale, and, if having acknowledged an opening or other bid, the auctioneer decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he or she may reject the advance. 9. On the fall of the auctioneer’s gavel, the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer assumes full risk and responsibility for the offered lot, subject to all of the Terms and Conditions of Sale set forth herein, and is immediately obligated to pay the full purchase price.

In addition to other remedies available to Santa Fe Art Auction by law, we reserve the right to impose, from the date of sale, a late charge of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) of the total purchase price, if payment is not made in accordance with the conditions set forth herein. (a) All lots must be removed by the Buyer at his or her expense not later than ten (10) business days following the sale, and, if it is not so removed, (i) a handling charge of 1% of the total purchase price per month, or a portion thereof from the tenth day after the sale (until its removal) will be payable to us by the Buyer, with a minimum of 5% of the total purchase price due for any lot not so removed within 60 days after the sale, and (ii) Santa Fe Art Auction may send the purchased lot to a public warehouse for the account of and at the risk and expense of the Buyer. (b) If any applicable conditions herein are not complied with by the Buyer, the Buyer will be in default, and in addition to any and all other remedies available to the Santa Fe Art Auction and its agents and consignors by law, including, without limitation, the right to hold the Buyer liable for the total purchase price, together with all fees, charges and expenses set forth in these Terms and Conditions of Sale, the Santa Fe Art Auction, at its sole option, may (i) cancel the sale of that, or any other lot or lots sold to the defaulting Buyer, or (ii) resell the purchased lot or lots, whether at auction or by private sale, or (iii) effect any combination thereof. The Buyer will be liable for any deficiency, any and all costs, handling charges, late charges, expenses and commissions of both sales, legal fees and expenses, collection fees and incidental damages. The Santa Fe Art Auction and its agents and consignors shall have all of the rights accorded to a secured party under the New Mexico Uniform Commercial Code. The Buyer of each lot agrees that each lot is unique and that Santa Fe Art Auction, in its sole discretion, shall not be required to sell or otherwise seek to mitigate damages should such Buyer fail to pay the total purchase price. Payment will not be deemed to have been made in full until the Santa Fe Art Auction shall have collected good funds. The Santa Fe Art Auction reserves the right to hold all purchases pending collection of the total purchase price, together with all additional fees, charges and expenses incurred pursuant to these Terms and Conditions of Sale. 10. All lots (unless otherwise indicated by the letters “nr”) are subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price acceptable to the consignor. The Santa Fe Art Auction, or its agents or consignors, may implement such reserve by opening the bidding or they or either of them may bid up to the amount of the reserve by placing successive or consecutive bids for a lot or may bid in response to other bidders. In instances where the Santa Fe Art Auction has an interest in the lot, it may bid up to the reserve to protect such interest. 11. Santa Fe Art Auction is the owner of images of each lot offered for sale and may use such images for its own archival purposes, as well as for advertising and publicity in connection with this or future sales by the Santa Fe Art Auction. 12. These Terms and Conditions of Sale, together with the parties’ respective rights and obligations hereunder, shall be governed and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New Mexico, without regard to New Mexico’s rules concerning conflicts of laws. 13. Prospective bidders, bidders and Buyers agree that, in the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to a sale of any lot, the party asserting such controversy or claim shall provide written notice thereof to the other party; that any such controversy or claim not settled within fourteen (14) days of delivery of notice by the other party, including, without limitation, any controversy or claim arising from, or relating to, the sale of any lot or any of these Terms and Conditions of Sale, including the terms of this paragraph, the sole and exclusive means for resolving the dispute shall be by binding arbitration in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Said arbitration shall be confidential and shall be pursuant to the New Mexico Uniform Arbitration Act, shall be conducted before a single arbitrator, and shall otherwise be guided by the then extant New Mexico Rules of Arbitration. This Agreement is deemed made in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and is subject to the internal substantive law of the State of New Mexico without regard to conflicts of laws. The award of the arbitrator shall be final, and may be entered into any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each party shall bear that party’s own costs of arbitration and attorney’s fees. 14.

These Terms and Conditions are not assignable by any buyer without the prior written consent of the Santa Fe Art Auction.

for any errors or omissions made in connection with online bids or the online bidding process. Although Santa Fe Art Auction will do everything in its power to assure all online bids are recognized, Santa Fe Art Auction has no way of guaranteeing that the internet and the online bidding process will be free from technical malfunctions. In the event of a tie between an online bid and a “room” bid, the “room” bid generally will take precedence. “Room” bids include those bids taken from the live auction room(s), telephones, absentee bidders, or bids made by the auctioneer to protect the reserve. Santa Fe Art Auction will not be responsible for errors or failures to execute bids placed on the internet, including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by (i) a loss of connection on Santa Fe Art Auction’s or on the Buyer’s end, (ii) a breakdown or problems with the online bidding software, and/or (iii) a breakdown or problems with a Buyer’s internet connection, computer or system. Santa Fe Art Auction does not accept liability for failing to execute an online internet bid or for errors or omissions in connection with this activity.

Our representatives will then try to purchase the lot or lots of your choice for the lowest price possible, and never for more than the top amount you indicate. The Santa Fe Art Auction offers this service as a convenience to clients who are unable to attend the auction.
