THE VIEW

Welcome to the third edition of The View The third Welsh Sale catalogue and the third Selections catalogue of 2023 Every Welsh Sale has a dominant flavour and this November is no exception, as we bring you another fine art smorgasbord, this time with an overriding taste of Welsh paintings to whet your appetite. There are outstanding ‘exhibition quality’ examples from many of The Welsh Sale stalwarts; a special Claudia Williams for instance, which surely rivals the quality of the record breaking ‘Le Vent’ sold in the summer sale. There is also a superb example from Claudia’s late husband Gwilym Prichard too, which shows Tenby in glorious vivid technicolour . There is a supreme example from David Woodford - an artist who, after so many years of patiently capturing the dramatic light of Nant Ffrancon, is finally beginning to receive the wider recognition that he deserves. And there is, in my opinion, the best Ray Howard Jones oil that we have offered in any Welsh Sale previously. We will also be serving a monumental Keith Bowen portrait of a farmer in which you can almost smell his musty tweeds. And to finish, a group of fine exhibition quality works by Donald McIntyre, with no less than seven of his electric acrylics, a few of which are quite substantial in size. Then of course, there are works by Kyffin - a total of nine oil paintings this time, biographical in nature, with three views of London where he spent so much of his life, an early view of Ireland and two stunning later canvases - the first a large canvas with many Kyffin trademarks – the farm, the upland landscape, dry-stone walls, cattle and not one but two patrolling sheep dogs. All these trademarks in one painting - a signature dish indeed! The other is one of Kyffin’s dramatic mountain scenes with a delicious hazy sunset, exhibited at the Royal Academy.

KEVIN SINNOTT

Ben Rogers Jones

And lastly but by no means least, there is the catalogue cover-shot oil painting by Kevin Sinnott. ‘Running Away with the Hairdresser’, an image of two figures sprinting away from South Wales terraces is likely the most famous of Welsh art images from the last thirty years. The partner of this painting is permanently exhibited at the National Museum of Wales, and it has over the years proved to be one of the museum’s favourite acquisitions. In interviews, Kevin Sinnott said that he could not pinpoint the inspiration for the image, or provide a solid narrative behind the scene. But he has related the two figures to an age of aspiration when many young Welsh people endeavour to escape from their birthplaces. The artist himself left for London for the Royal College of Art and thence became hugely successful in the 1970s and 1980s with sell-out exhibitions at leading London galleries such as Anne Berthoud and Bernard Jacobson, as well as internationally at Jan Turner Gallery, Los Angeles, Roger Ramsey Gallery, Chicago and Bernard Jacobson in New York. Along the way, Sinnott’s paintings were acquired by major collections including Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, the British Council, the Royal College of Art London, the British Museum and of course the National Museum of Wales. But like many of us, Kevin Sinnott returned to Wales where he is now held as the preeminent Welsh male artist still working today.


Rogers Jones & Co • The View / Bwrw Golwg For starters in November’s Welsh Sale is a section of Welsh antiques, ceramics, and books including an extensive sub-section of Dylan Thomas books and ephemera. I am proud that over the years so many clients have brought their Dylan Thomas items to us at Rogers Jones & Co, it is no secret that he is my favourite writer. The bulk of the Dylan lots this time are from the library of the late actor David Ponting (1936-2018). The collection represents the culmination of Ponting’s lifelong passionate interest in Dylan Thomas. Ponting was first introduced to the writing of Dylan Thomas by an inspirational English teacher in the Sixth Form of his Wiltshire grammar school. Whilst teaching in Uganda, he took the lead in a semi-professional production of Sidney Michael’s play, ‘Dylan’. Later, with the support and encouragement of Dylan’s daughter, Aeronwy Thomas-Ellis, the actor developed a travelling multi-media one-man show, ‘Dylan Thomas: The Man and The Myth’, which he performed hundreds of times in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, on both sides of the Atlantic, often supported by the Welsh Tourist Board. In retirement he produced a CD-ROM based on a previously unknown recording of Dylan Thomas’s 1950 performance at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, and gathered this collection of publications by and about Thomas. The David Ponting library includes rare 1st editions, early published writings by Thomas and hosts of other material relating to the poet. It offers a wonderful opportunity to acquire a very focussed library, carefully assembled over many years, which was brought about by sheer passion and enthusiasm for Wales’ greatest 20th Century writer. Our Selections auction acts as the sophisticated digestif - short, neat, and strong with an international flavour that delivers a punch. As with The Welsh Sale the flavours of each Selection auction changes from sale to sale, but it so happens that the overriding taste in this November sale is also 20th Century art from major names. Representing England – Banksy, Patrick Heron, Sir Peter Blake, Peter Lanyon, Keith Vaughan, Fred Yates, Stephen Wiltshire MBE and Harold Riley. Representing Scotland, we have Doris Zinkeisen and we aptly have Dylan Thomas’ namesake, Bob Dylan to bookend this catalogue.

DAVID PONTING AS DYLAN THOMAS

Finally, there are global names in decorative arts too; from France there is Rene Lalique, from Austria, Franz Bergmann, and of course from Switzerland the ubiquitous Rolex. Whatever your taste might be, the Selections auction always guarantees a global cuisine. I sincerely hope you have a healthy appetite for quality this autumn! Happy bidding. Ben Rogers Jones

‘RUNNING AWAY WITH THE HAIRDRESSER’

Mae yna ryw flas penodol yn amlygu’i hun ym mhob Arwerthiant Cymreig ac mae hynny’n sicr yn wir fis Tachwedd yma wrth i ni ddod â smorgasbord arall o gelf gain i chi, gyda blas amlwg paentiadau Cymreig i dynnu dŵr i’ch dannedd y tro hwn. Mae yna enghreifftiau rhagorol o ‘safon arddangosfa’ gan nifer o hoelion wyth Yr Arwerthiant Cymreig; un arbennig gan Claudia Williams er enghraifft, sy’n sicr lawn cystal o ran ansawdd â ‘Le Vent’ a dorrodd record pan gafodd ei werthu yn arwerthiant yr haf. Mae yna enghraifft wych hefyd gan ddiweddar ŵr Claudia, Gwilym Pritchard, sy’n dangos Dinbych-y-pysgod mewn lliwiau bywiog gogoneddus. Mae yna enghraifft ardderchog gan David Woodford - arlunydd sydd wedi treulio blynyddoedd amyneddgar yn darlunio golau dramatig Nant Ffrancon, ac sydd o’r diwedd yn derbyn y gydnabyddiaeth ehangach y mae’n ei haeddu. Ac, yn fy marn i, y darlun olew gan Ray Howard ydy’r gorau rydyn ni wedi’i gynnig mewn unrhyw Arwerthiant Cymreig hyd yma. Byddwn ni hefyd yn cynnig portread gogoneddus gan Keith Bowen o ffermwr y gallwch chi arogli ei hen ddillad brethyn, bron. Ac i orffen, grŵp o weithiau campus o safon arddangosfa gan Donald McIntyre, yn cynnwys cymaint â saith o’i baentiadau acrylic trydanol, gydag ambell un o faint sylweddol iawn. Yna wrth gwrs, mae yna weithiau gan Kyffin - cyfanswm o naw paentiad olew y tro hwn, yn fywgraffiadol eu naws, gyda thri golygfa o Lundain lle treuliodd cymaint o’i oes, golygfa gynnar o Iwerddon a dau gynfas diweddarach syfrdanol - y cyntaf cynfas mawr gyda llawer o nodau masnach Kyffin – y fferm, tirwedd yr ucheldir, waliau sychion, gwartheg ac nid un ond dau gi defaid yn patrolio. Yr holl nodau masnach hyn mewn un paentiad - pryd llofnod yn wir! Mae’r llall yn un o olygfeydd mynyddig dramatig Kyffin gyda machlud haul niwlog blasus, wedi’i arddangos yn yr Academi Frenhinol. Ac yn olaf, i goroni’r cyfan, mae’r paentiad olew gan Kevin Sinnott sydd i’w weld ar flaen y catalog. Mae’n debyg mai ‘Running Away

with the Hairdresser’, llun o ddau ffigwr yn rhedeg ar ras o derasau yn Ne Cymru, ydy’r ddelwedd enwocaf o’r byd celf Cymreig yn y deng mlynedd ar hugain diwethaf. Mae partner y paentiad hwn yn rhan o arddangosfa barhaol Amgueddfa Cymru, a thros y blynyddoedd, gwelwyd mai dyma ydy un o’r hoff weithiau sydd wedi dod i feddiant yr amgueddfa. Mewn cyfweliadau, dywedodd Kevin Sinnott nad oedd yn gallu rhoi ei fys ar yr hyn a ysbrydolodd y llun, nac adrodd stori bendant sy’n sail i’r olygfa. Ond mae wedi uniaethu’r ddau ffigwr ag oes o uchelgais pan roedd llawer o bobl ifanc Cymru yn dyheu am ddianc o’u cynefin. Gadawodd yr artist yntau am Lundain i fynd i’r Coleg Celf Brenhinol ac wedyn cafodd lwyddiant aruthrol yn y 1970au a’r 1980au gydag arddangosfeydd yn gwerthu allan yn rhai o brif orielau Llundain megis Anne Berthoud a Bernard Jacobson, yn ogystal ag yn rhyngwladol yn Oriel Jan Turner, Los Angeles, Oriel Roger Ramsey, Chicago a Bernard Jacobson yn Efrog Newydd. Ar hyd y daith, daeth paentiadau Sinnott i berchenogaeth casgliadau mawr, gan gynnwys y Metropolitan Museum of Art, Efrog Newydd, y Cyngor Prydeinig, y Coleg Celf Brenhinol yn Llundain, yr Amgueddfa Brydeinig ac wrth gwrs, Amgueddfa Cymru. Ond fel sawl un ohonom, dychwelyd i Gymru fu hanes Kevin Sinnott a’r farn yma bellach ydy mai dyma’r arlunydd gwrywaidd disgleiriaf sy’n dal i weithio heddiw. Y cwrs cyntaf yn Arwerthiant Cymreig mis Tachwedd, ydy adran o hen bethau, serameg a llyfrau Cymreig, gan gynnwys is-adran helaeth o lyfrau ac effemera Dylan Thomas. Mae’n destun balchder i mi bod cymaint o gleientiaid wedi dod â’u heitemau Dylan Thomas i ni yn Rogers Jones & Co dros y blynyddoedd, a bydd llawer ohonoch yn gwybod mai dyma fy hoff lenor. Daw’r rhan fwyaf o eitemau Dylan y tro hwn o lyfrgell y diweddar actor David Ponting (1936-2018). Mae’r casgliad yn benllanw ar y diddordeb ysol yn Dylan Thomas fu gan Ponting drwy gydol ei oes.


Rogers Jones & Co • The View / Bwrw Golwg Cafodd Ponting ei gyflwyno gyntaf i waith Dylan Thomas gan athro Saesneg ysbrydoledig yn y Chweched Dosbarth yn ei ysgol ramadeg yn Wiltshire. Tra roedd yn gweithio fel athro yn Uganda, chwaraeodd y brif ran mewn cynhyrchiad lled-broffesiynol o ddrama Sidney Michael, ‘Dylan’. Yn ddiweddarach, gyda chefnogaeth ac anogaeth gan ferch Dylan, Aeronwy Thomas-Ellis, datblygodd yr actor sioe un-dyn amlgyfrwng deithiol o’r enw ‘Dylan Thomas: The Man and The Myth’, ac fe lwyfanodd y sioe gannoedd o weithiau yn y 1970au, y 1980au a’r 1990au, ar y naill ochr a’r llall i’r Iwerydd, yn aml gyda chefnogaeth Bwrdd Croeso Cymru. Wedi iddo ymddeol, mi gynhyrchodd CD-ROM yn seiliedig ar recordiad na wyddai neb amdano hyd hynny o berfformiad Dylan Thomas yn 1950 ym Mhrifysgol Cornell, Ithaca, Efrog Newydd, a bu’n crynhoi’r casgliad hwn o gyhoeddiadau gan ac am Dylan Thomas. Mae llyfrgell David Ponting yn cynnwys argraffiadau cyntaf prin, gweithiau cynnar a gyhoeddwyd gan Thomas a llu o ddeunyddiau eraill yn ymwneud â’r bardd. Mae’n cynnig cyfle bendigedig i gael gafael ar lyfrgell â ffocws pendant a gasglwyd yn ofalus dros nifer o flynyddoedd, a hynny oherwydd angerdd a brwdfrydedd a daniwyd gan lenor mwyaf Cymru o’r 20fed Ganrif. Ein harwerthiant Dewisiadau ydy’r digestif soffistigedig - mae’n gryno, yn gryf ac yn cynnwys blas rhyngwladol a fydd yn rhoi ysgytwad. Yn yr un modd â’r Arwerthiant Cymreig, mae blas pob arwerthiant Dewisiadau yn newid o un arwerthiant i’r nesaf, ond fel mae’n digwydd bod, y blas amlycaf yn yr arwerthiant hwn fis Tachwedd yma hefyd ydy celf o’r 20fed Ganrif gan enwau mawr. Yn cynrychioli Lloegr – Banksy, Patrick Heron, Syr Peter Blake, Peter Lanyon, Keith Vaughan, Fred Yates, Stephen Wiltshire MBE a Harold Riley. Yn cynrychioli’r Alban, mae Doris Zinkeisen ac yn briodol iawn, mae’r gŵr sy’n rhannu’r un enw â Dylan Thomas, Bob Dylan yma i gau pen y mwdwl ar y catalog hwn. Yn olaf, mae yna enwau byd-enwog yn y celfyddydau addurniadol hefyd; o Ffrainc, mae Rene Lalique, o Awstria mae Franz Bergman, ac o’r Swistir wrth gwrs, mae’r cyson-bresennol Rolex. Beth bynnag sydd at eich dant, gallwch fod yn sicr y bydd bwydlen ryngwladol yn yr arwerthiant Dewisiadau bob tro. Gobeithio’n wir fod y safon yn codi blys arnoch yr hydref hwn!

2023 JOURNAL Despite not kicking-off the auction calendar until January 10th, we managed to squeeze in five auctions including a specialist auction of Asian Art. Most memorably for me was a highly unusual cast-metal sign of a suspended jacob-lamb which marked the coming of spring with a healthy £2100 hammer price in our January 13th sale.

JAN

FEB

APR

We held six auctions in a record-breaking February, which culminated in The Greatest: The Rugby Jersey Collection of Sir Gareth Edwards MBE. It was an auction that will go down as a career highlight and one that I will never forget. It proved to be a ‘white glove’ sale in which all thirty-nine lots sold for a total of £351,500. Sir Gareth’s 1973 Barbarian’s jersey made history as it was knocked down to a private collector for £240,000. It was a privilege and honour to act on behalf of the Edwards family and to conduct this auction. Aside from Sir Gareth’s jerseys, February proved to be a sensational month for auction prices. A wonderful 19th Century Italian Cassone (marriage chest), realized £12,500 at the Colwyn Bay Saleroom and then realizing £3400, a King James Bible, dated 1617. But items do not have to be old to sell well - a set of Hans Wegner (Danish. 1914-2007) designed ‘heart chairs’ made £2200 demonstrating the continuing strength of the mid-Century furniture market. Whilst a modern abstract oil by Walter Whall Battiss (South African. 1906-1982) was hammered down at £3300. We held four auctions in March which again saw rare curiosities raise a few eyebrows. A Japanese cloisonne tray served up £4000, a violin hit a high note at £5400, a pub-sign called last orders at £3300 and a forgotten about, genuine barn-find, 1954 MG convertible revved up to £8,600, despite there being no sign of the key anywhere at the property! 8

From January 1st up until October’s Club House auction on October 13th we will have had held 53 auctions. In this time, we have knocked the hammer down on over 11,000 lots to a total value of over £2.8m. With nine auctions to go, we are heading towards another record year of auction sales for the fourth year in succession. Our growth has been down to a collective effort of course, and we are very fortunate to have a fabulous auction-team supported by an excellent admin team. A big thank you to them and a huge thank you to all the vendors and bidders who continue to support us and leave us such positive reviews.

MAR

April was a month of six auctions including our first Welsh Sale and first Selections auction of the year. The Welsh Sale might have landed on April 1st but there was no fooling around with the bidding. 85% of lots found new homes to the total hammer price of £349,810. There were new records set for a Kyffin print at £3000 and an Ewenny cat at £2800 and fabulous prices for Welsh paintings, a good sign that strong market was set to continue in 2023. As usual, following The Welsh Sale was the Selections auction in which there was a pleasant surprise for the vendor of a mourning ring which sold for £4200, and a group of prints by David Hockney which collectively made over £12000.

MAY

May was also a month of six auctions including our inaugural The Club House auction. Highlights at The Club House included an amazing collection of Groggs and prestigious match-worn jerseys. Rather bizarrely, we also had the dubious honour of selling various elements of Royal underwear and other princely garments which drew international interest. Results in May were bolstered by excellent consignments of gold and other jewellery, together with gold coins. The market is exceptionally buoyant in these sectors, as gold sovereigns have been selling for £320 to £350 recently. If you have invested in gold sovereigns over the years, then now might be a good time to bring them to the market.


Rogers Jones & Co • The View / Bwrw Golwg There were five auctions in June this year. Highlights included a collection of Welsh gold nuggets sourced from the St David’s mine in Bontddu, near Dolgellau. The rare gold selling for an accumulative £8,100. Pokemon I must admit, is something that I knew very little about, but fortunately, we have an enthusiastic former collector in our auction team and so we were able to catalogue a collection with a reasonable amount of authority. The collection of trading-cards from the 1990s made £3410 at our Collectables auction in June. Again, it shows that not everything needs to be old to sell well, sometimes items do not even have to be mid-Century, there is a new wave of collectables coming in from the 1990s. I am now personally caught up in Pokemania, twenty-five years too late! My favourite lot in June was the very large Canadian moose-head which made me smile as I wondered whether it speaks English having ‘’learnt it from a book’’. The moose sold for a major £1000.

JUN

There were six auctions in September including a very visually interesting auction in Cardiff of Fine Books, Fine Art & Furniture. Modern art sculptures, mid-Century designer furniture and rare books were the catch of the day, with the highest price realized for a manuscript journal titled Sketches of the County of Devon and dated 1793. The volume was by John Swete and formed an itinerary of the county of Devon during travels made by the author from 1792-1802 all of which were illustrated with sketches made on the spot.

SEP

JUL

Another six auctions took place across the company in July including our second Welsh Sale and second Selections auction of 2023. The Welsh Sale was graced with some fabulous examples of Welsh art, with Sir Kyffin having an excellent day with each of his six oils finding new buyers. However, the contest of the day was for Claudia Williams ‘Le Vent’, which shattered the artist’s previous auction record by taking an unprecedented £18,000 hammer price. The Welsh Sale totalled £340,910 with 86% of lots finding new homes.

OCT

The Selections auction was also packed with quality and rarities too. Most rare of all was a collection of various sets of municipal brass measures and weights which tipped the balance at £8900. There was also a fine Italian micro-mosaic panel which caught the eye of several bidders and realized £7000. Five auctions took place in the month of August. The month saw some beautiful jewellery and objets d’art go under the hammer and the top selling lot from this sector was a luscious enamel and portrait snuff box, which despite some damage, made £3100. We also began offering a single-owner collection of paintings and prints by the Manchester artist, Harold Riley which thus far have realised over £20,000. The examples which we consider to be the best from this collection we have saved for this November’s Selections Sale. Another highlight or should I say high light in September was the Arts & Crafts ceiling light fitting by W A S Benson which illuminated the Colwyn Bay’s furniture auction at £6600.

AUG

Another six auctions took place in October, or at least there will have been by the time you receive this catalogue! We held our second auction called The Club House which brings together the collecting fields of sports, military, natural history, wine and whisky, motoring and so forth. Putting the objects from all these collecting fields together works exceptionally well and visually they seem to belong to each other when they are ready for view at the auction rooms. The highest prices in the auction were for three match-worn rugby jerseys at £3000, £2500 and £2200. Following hot on the heels of sporting clothing, there was a collection of World War II period uniforms and accessories which sold for £1800, a juke-box proved a hit at £1600 and then there were hotly contested Grogg figures, military medals and collections of taxidermy with an albatross flying highest at £950. 9

2023 DYDDIADUR 01

IONAWR: Er na roesom gychwyn ar y calendr arwerthu tan Ionawr 10fed, llwyddon ni i wasgu pum arwerthiant i mewn, gan gynnwys arwerthiant arbenigol o Gelf Asiaidd. Roedd yn fis o safonau uchel a oedd yn cynnwys ein harwerthiant mwyaf llwyddiannus o Addurniadau Mewnol hyd yn hyn eleni. Yr hyn sy’n sefyll orau yn y cof i mi ydy’r arwydd haearn bwrw hynod anarferol o oen Jacob ynghrog a nododd ddyfodiad y gwanwyn gyda phris iach ar y morthwyl o £2100.

CHWEFROR: Mi gynhalion ni chwech arwerthiant mewn mis Chwefror o dorri recordiau, a ddaeth i benllanw gyda The Greatest: The Rugby Jersey Collection of Sir Gareth Edwards MBE. Roedd yr arwerthiant bythgofiadwy hwn yn un y byddaf yn ei gofio fel un o uchafbwyntiau fy ngyrfa. Roedd yn arwerthiant ‘menyg gwynion’ ble cafodd pob un o’r 39 o eitemau eu gwerthu am gyfanswm o £351,500. Cafodd hanes ei greu gan grys Barbariaid 1973 Syr Gareth wrth i’r morthwyl ddod i lawr arno i gasglwr preifat am £240,000. Roedd yn fraint ac yn anrhydedd cael gweithredu ar ran teulu Edwards a chynnal yr arwerthiant hwn.

02

Yn ogystal â chrysau rygbi Syr Gareth, bu Chwefror yn fis syfrdanol o ran prisiau mewn arwerthiannau. Gwerthodd Cassone (cist briodas) Eidalaidd hyfryd o’r 19eg Ganrif am £12,500 yn Ystafell Arwerthu Bae Colwyn, ac yna cafwyd £3400 am Feibl y Brenin Iago yn dyddio o 1617. Ond does dim rhaid i eitemau fod yn hen iddynt werthu’n dda - cododd set o ‘gadeiriau calonnau’ a gynlluniwyd gan Hans Wegner (Denmarc. 1914-2007) £2200 gan ddangos bod marchnad dodrefn canol y Ganrif yn parhau’n gryf. A daeth y morthwyl i lawr ar baentiad olew haniaethol gan Walter Whall Batiss (De Affrica. 1906-1982) ar bris o £3300. MAWRTH: Cynhalion ni bedwar arwerthiant ym mis Mawrth ac unwaith eto, roedd yna drugareddau prin a achosodd i aeliau godi. Daeth hambwrdd cloisonne Japaneaidd â £4000, tarodd ffidil nodyn uchel ar £5400, canodd y gloch ar arwydd tafarn am £3300 a sgrialodd MG anghofiedig o 1954 a ganfuwyd mewn sgubor hyd at £8600, er nad oedd unrhyw sôn am yr allwedd unrhyw le yn yr eiddo. 10

03

O Ionawr 1af hyd at yr arwerthiant Clwb Chwaraeon ar Hydref 13eg, byddwn ni wedi cynnal 53 arwerthiant. Dros y cyfnod hwn, rydyn ni wedi dod â’r morthwyl i lawr ar dros 11,000 o eitemau a chyfanswm eu gwerth dros £2.8m. Gyda naw arwerthiant i fynd, rydyn ni ar ein ffordd tuag at dorri’r record o ran gwerthu mewn arwerthiannau eto eleni am y bedwaredd flwyddyn yn olynol. Mae ein twf wedi bod yn ffrwyth ymdrech ar y cyd, wrth gwrs, ac rydyn ni’n ffodus iawn bod gennym ni dîm arwerthu gwych sy’n cael cefnogaeth tîm gweinyddol rhagorol. Diolch yn fawr iawn iddyn nhw a diolch enfawr i’r holl werthwyr a chynigwyr sy’n parhau i’n cefnogi ni ac yn gadael adolygiadau mor gadarnhaol.

EBRILL: Roedd chwech arwerthiant ym mis Ebrill, gan gynnwys Arwerthiant Cymreig ac arwerthiant Dewisiadau cyntaf y flwyddyn. Er mai ar Ebrill 1af roedd yr Arwerthiant Cymreig, yn sicr nid dyma oedd y lle i ffyliaid. Cafodd 85% o’r eitemau gartref newydd am £349,810. Torrwyd recordiau ar gyfer print Kyffin am £3000 a chath Ewenni am £2800 a chafwyd prisiau ardderchog am baentiadau Cymreig, sy’n arwydd da bod marchnad gref yn debygol o barhau yn 2023. Fel arfer, dilynwyd Yr Arwerthiant Cymreig gan yr arwerthiant Dewisiadau ac roedd newyddion da annisgwyl i werthwr modrwy alar a werthodd am £4200, a grŵp o brintiau gan David Hockney a wnaeth gyfanswm o dros £12000.

05

MAI: Roedd chwech arwerthiant ym mis Mai gan gynnwys ein harwerthiant Clwb Chwaraeon cyntaf erioed. Ymhlith yr uchafbwyntiau yn y Clwb Chwaraeon, roedd casgliad anhygoel o Groggs a chrysau a oedd wedi’u gwisgo mewn gemau mawr eu bri. Yn rhyfedd ddigon, cawson ni’r anrhydedd hefyd, os hynny, o werthu amrywiol eitemau o ddillad isaf Brenhinol a dillad tywysogaidd eraill a ddenodd ddiddordeb rhyngwladol. Cafodd canlyniadau mis Mai eu cryfhau gan gyflenwad rhagorol o emwaith aur ac amrywiol, ynghyd â darnau aur. Mae’r farchnad yn eithriadol o lewyrchus yn y sectorau hyn, gan fod sofrenni aur wedi bod yn gwerthu am £320 i £350 yn ddiweddar. Os ydych chi wedi buddsoddi mewn sofrenni aur dros y blynyddoedd, gallai fod yn adeg dda i chi ddod â nhw i’r farchnad.

04


Rogers Jones & Co • The View / Bwrw Golwg MEHEFIN: Cynhaliwyd pum arwerthiant ym mis Mehefin eleni. Ymhlith yr uchafbwyntiau, roedd casgliad o dalpiau aur o fwynglawdd Dewi Sant yn y Bontddu ger Dolgellau. Gwerthodd yr aur prin am gyfanswm o £8,100. Rhaid i mi gyfaddef mai ychydig iawn a wyddwn i am Pokemon, ond wrth lwc, mae gennym gyn-gasglwr brwd yn aelod o’n tîm arwerthu, felly roedd modd i ni fod yn eithaf agos ati wrth gatalogio casgliad. Gwnaeth y casgliad o gardiau cyfnewid o’r 1990au £3410 yn ein harwerthiant Casgliadau ym mis Mehefin. Unwaith eto, mae’n dangos nad oes rhaid i bopeth fod yn hen er mwyn gwerthu’n dda, weithiau does dim rhaid i eitemau fod o ganol y Ganrif hyd yn oed, mae ton newydd o eitemau a gesglir yn dod i mewn o’r 1990au. Rwyf innau bellach wedi cael fy ysgubo ymaith gan Pokemania, bum mlynedd ar hugain yn rhy hwyr! Fy hoff eitem ym mis Mehefin oedd pen elc Canadaidd mawr iawn oedd yn dod â gwên i fy wyneb wrth i mi feddwl tybed a oedd yn siarad Saesneg wedi iddo “ei dysgu o lyfr”. Gwerthodd yr elc am swm anrhydeddus o £1000.

MEDI: Roedd chwech arwerthiant ym mis Medi, gan gynnwys arwerthiant oedd yn hynod ddiddorol yn weledol yng Nghaerdydd ar gyfer Llyfrau Cain, Celf a Dodrefn Cain. Cerfluniau celfyddyd gyfoes, dodrefn gan gynllunwyr o ganol y Ganrif a llyfrau prin oedd arlwy’r dydd, a chafwyd y pris uchaf am lawysgrif dyddiadur o’r enw Sketches of the County of Devon oedd wedi’i ddyddio i 1793. Cyfrol gan John Swete oedd hon ac roedd yn cofnodi hynt yr awdur ar ei deithiau yn swydd Dyfnaint rhwng 1792-1802 gyda sgetsys a wnaed yn y fan a’r lle i gydfynd â’r cyfan.

GORFFENNAF: Cynhaliwyd chwech arwerthiant arall ar draws y cwmni ym mis Gorffennaf, gan gynnwys yr ail Arwerthiant Cymreig ac ail arwerthiant Dewisiadau 2023. Cafodd Yr Arwerthiant Cymreig ei gyfoethogi gan enghreifftiau godidog o gelf Gymreig, gyda Syr Kyffin yn cael diwrnod rhagorol a phob un o’i chwe darlun olew yn denu prynwr newydd. Fodd bynnag, cystadleuaeth y dydd oedd honno dros ‘Le Vent’ Claudia Williams, a chwalodd record arwerthiant blaenorol yr arlunydd drwy ddenu pris morthwyl digyffelyb o £18,000. Cyfanswm Yr Arwerthiant Cymreig oedd £340,910 gydag 86% o’r eitemau yn cael cartrefi newydd. Roedd yr arwerthiant Dewisiadau yn gyforiog o ansawdd a phethau prin hefyd. Y peth prinnaf oll oedd casgliad o setiau amrywiol o fesuriadau a phwysau pres bwrdeistrefol a drodd y fantol ar £8900. Roedd yno banel o ficro-fosaic Eidalaidd cain hefyd a ddaliodd lygad nifer o gynigwyr ac a werthodd am £7000.

AWST: Bu pum arwerthiant ym mis Awst. Aeth nifer o eitemau gemwaith ac objets d’art prydferth dan y morthwyl yn ystod y mis a’r eitem a werthodd orau o’r sector hwn oedd blwch snisin hyfryd o enamel â phortread, ac er bod rhywfaint o ddifrod arno, cododd £3100. Dechreuon ni gynnig casgliad unperchennog o baentiadau a phrintiau gan yr arlunydd o Fanceinion, Harold Riley hefyd, a hyd yn hyn, maent wedi codi dros £20,000. Rydyn ni wedi cadw’r enghreifftiau gorau o’r casgliad hwn yn ein tyb ni ar gyfer Arwerthiant Cymreig mis Tachwedd yma. Uchafbwynt arall, neu gallwn i ddweud ‘uwch olau’ ym mis Medi oedd golau nenfwd addurniadol Celf a Chrefft gan W A S Benson a ddaeth â goleuni i arwerthiant dodrefn Bae Colwyn ar £6600.

HYDREF: Cynhaliwyd chwech arwerthiant arall ym mis Hydref, neu o leiaf bydd chwech wedi bod erbyn i chi dderbyn y catalog hwn! Cynhalion ni ein hail arwerthiant o’r enw Y Clwb Chwaraeon sy’n dwyn ynghyd feysydd casglu chwaraeon, milwrol, hanes byd natur, gwin a chwisgi, moduro ac yn y blaen. Mae rhoi eitemau o’r holl feysydd casglu hyn gyda’i gilydd yn gweithio’n arbennig o dda, ac yn weledol, mae fel petaen nhw’n perthyn i’w gilydd pan maen nhw’n barod i gael eu gweld yn yr ystafelloedd arwerthu. Cafwyd y prisiau uchaf yn yr arwerthiant am dri chrys rygbi oedd wedi’u gwisgo mewn gemau, sef £3000, £2500 a £2200. Yn dynn wrth sodlau’r dillad chwaraeon, roedd casgliad o wisgoedd ac ategolion milwrol o’r Ail Ryfel Byd a werthodd am £1800, juke-box a aeth i frig y siartiau am £1600 ac wedyn roedd cystadleuaeth frwd am ffigyrau Grogg, medalau milwrol a chasgliadau o anifeiliaid tacsidermi, gydag albatros yn hedfan uchaf i ddenu £950. 11

A–Z OF WELSH ART / GWYDDOR CELF GYMREIG

is for Aneurin Jones (1930-2017) If Sir Kyffin Williams was the foremost landscape painter for the rugged mountains and farmers of north Wales, then Aneurin was the equivalent for mid-Wales. Aneurin painted the farms and farmers of Powys and their labour endeavours, their outbuildings, and their livestock - especially horses. In doing so he chronicled the rural communities, the men and women, and their traditions in a hilly, remote, and quieter middle section of Wales. For hundreds of years, the public through railway advertising, postcards and art have been fed the images of the rugged peaks of Eryri. But Aneurin unveiled another part of Wales, which to many is the Nation’s beating heart and soul. Historically, in mid-Wales changes happen slowly and Aneurin through his visions of harvests, horse-fairs, sheep-dog trials, and coracle-men are a testament to this slower-pace of life. The artist spoke deeply and affectionately of his farming roots and the land to which he was so well connected,

‘’I was born into the upland farming community of Cwmwysg, on the borders of Breconshire and Carmarthenshire. It was still the age of the working horse, and the place was peopled with colourful and eccentric characters with vivid imaginations. The boundary between this world and the world of mythology was ambiguous. At horse fairs, being a farmer’s son, I can mingle with the people gathered, talk about the lineage of a cob, the confirmation, and the stance, and then, almost without thinking, take a few steps back to observe these people as a group, as a series of physical shapes, and hold them in memory until I reach the studio. The colours on the palette are siennas, ochres and umbers – earth colours, melancholic, Welsh. I instinctively reach for these because they convey the deep feeling I have for the subject matter. They have a hiraeth and a longing quality which is hard to convey in words’’. The timelessness of Aneurin’s work is enhanced by his methods. Farmers appear hazily in misty landscapes, they are like ghosts, they are our late fathers, grandfathers, and great grandfathers. Often these figures are how we remember them personally - performing simple tasks such as chatting with their peers or lighting a cigarette. Often, they are simply staring out, perhaps from wherever they exist now, back into the mists of time. Aneurin’s paintings have a spiritual quality, they are memories of simpler lives and memories of ones that we loved and miss so dearly.

Rogers Jones & Co • The View / Bwrw Golwg

am Aneurin Jones (1930-2017)

Os mai Syr Kyffin Williams oedd yr arlunydd blaenllaw ar gyfer mynyddoedd a ffermwyr geirwon gogledd Cymru, Aneurin oedd yr arlunydd cyfatebol ar gyfer y Canolbarth. Bu Aneurin yn peintio ffermydd a ffermwyr Powys ac ymdrechion eu llafur, eu beudai, eu stablau a’u hanifeiliaid - yn enwedig eu ceffylau. Wrth wneud hynny, bu’n croniclo’r cymunedau gwledig, y dynion a’r menywod, a’u traddodiadau mewn rhan fryniog, anghysbell a thawel o berfeddwlad Cymru. Ers cannoedd o flynyddoedd, mae’r cyhoedd wedi cael eu porthi â delweddau o gopaon garw Eryri drwy hysbysebion rheilffordd, cardiau post a chelf. Ond datgelodd Aneurin ran arall o Gymru, rhan sy’n cynrychioli calon ac enaid y Genedl i nifer o bobl. Yn hanesyddol, araf yw’r newid yn y Canolbarth ac mae Aneurin, drwy ei olwg ar y cynhaeaf, ffeiriau ceffylau, treialon cŵn defaid, a chwryglwyr yn dyst i’r bywyd arafach hwn.

Wrth siarad am ei wreiddiau amaethyddol a’r tir yr oedd ganddo gysylltiad mor gryf ag ef, roedd dwyster a chariad yng ngeiriau’r arlunydd, “Cefais fy ngeni i gymuned amaethyddol yr ucheldir yng Nghwmwysg, ar y ffin rhwng Sir Frycheiniog a Sir Gaerfyrddin. Oes y ceffyl gwaith oedd hi o hyd, ac roedd y lle wedi’i boblogi gan gymeriadau lliwgar ac ecsentrig â’u dychymyg yn fyw. Roedd y ffin rhwng y byd hwn a byd mytholeg yn annelwig. Mewn ffeiriau ceffylau, gan fy mod yn fab i ffermwr, rwy’n gallu cymysgu â’r bobl sydd wedi ymgasglu, trafod llinach cob, ei ffurf, ei osgo, ac yna, heb feddwl bron, cymryd cam neu ddau yn ôl i sylwi ar y bobl yma fel grŵp, fel cyfres o siapiau ffisegol, a’u cadw yn y cof nes byddaf yn cyrraedd y stiwdio. Y lliwiau ar y palet ydy lliwiau sienna, ocrau ac wmberau – lliwiau’r tir, lliwiau melancolaidd, Cymreig. Rwy’n estyn yn reddfol am y rhain gan eu bod yn cyfleu’r ymdeimlad dwfn sydd gen i dros y testun. Mae yna hiraeth yn perthyn iddyn nhw sy’n anodd ei gyfleu mewn geiriau”. Mae natur ddigyfnewid gwaith Aneurin yn cael ei ategu gan ei ddulliau. Mae ffermwyr i’w gweld yn anelwig mewn tirluniau niwlog, maen nhw fel ysbrydion, maen nhw fel ein diweddar dadau, ein teidiau, ein hen deidiau. Yn aml, mae’r ffigyrau hyn i’w gweld fel rydyn ni’n eu cofio - yn cyflawni tasgau syml fel sgwrsio â’u cyfoedion neu gynnau sigarét. Yn aml, dydyn nhw’n gwneud dim ond syllu, o bosib o’r man ble maen nhw nawr yn ôl i niwloedd amser. Mae yna ansawdd ysbrydol i baentiadau Aneurin, maen nhw’n atgofion o fywydau symlach ac yn atgofion o’r rhai fu mor annwyl i ni ac y gwelwn eu heisiau.

Auctioneer’s Note: there are very few images of the early buildings at the summit of Yr Wyddfa, these buildings predate the railway, and were erected at the Snowdon summit in 1838 to sell refreshments, and a licence to sell intoxicating liquor was granted in 1845. Very basic accommodation was also provided for visitors. The station opened with the railway on 6 April 1896, but both closed the same day following an accident. They reopened a year later, on 9 April 1897. After the station opened, the company unsuccessfully strove to get an alcohol licence for its own proposed new hotel. During the 1930s, many complaints were received about the state of the facilities at the summit and in 1934/5 a new station building was erected in two phases; the upstairs accommodation was completed in 1937. They were designed by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis Comments: framed, ready to hang £300-400

This version was painted in early 1994 after the artist returned to Wales from London (in August 1993) and shortly before the larger version was painted and then acquired by the National Museum of Wales. The Station Hotel in the background is Caerau, near Maesteg. ‘Running Away with the Hairdresser’ is one of the most famous and best loved modern-Welsh art images. The artist said that the painting evolved from an earlier work called ‘Running Away’ showing a single man running from a smoke-filled sky and terraced houses and while painting ‘Running Away’ Sinnott recalled that his ‘..body tingled with the kind of excitement that comes when you sense a good idea is around the corner’. ‘Running Away with the Hairdresser was the outcome of this excitement. It has been said that the version at the National Museum of Wales is the most visited painting in the Museum’s impressive art collection which boasts works by Renoir, Monet and Pissarro. ‘Running Away with the Hairdresser’ is concerned with an age of aspiration where many young Welsh people have fled their roots, in this case the terraces of the South Wales valleys. It is simply a Welsh painting for the ages Comments: framed, immaculate condition and ready to hang £30,000-40,000

Provenance: private collection Pembrokeshire Auctioneer’s Note: Born in Kenya in 1940, Robert Glen’s interest in art and natural history began at an early age. At sixteen years old, he was accepted to serve an apprenticeship in taxidermy at the renowned studio of Coloman Jonas in Denver, Colorado. It was then that his interest in sculpture was born. Returning home after three years of training, he began a transition from taxidermy to sculpting animals in the European tradition of animaliers, working in various media before casting his first bronze in 1970. Since then, Robert Glen’s work has met with great success. His sculptures reside in many private collections including those of the late Queen, the Aga Khan, and the late Kenyan President Jomo Kenyatta. He has also held many one man shows in the USA, Canada, UK, Monte Carlo, Spain and South Africa. Robert Glen’s public commissions include one of the largest equestrian sculptures in history, ‘Mustangs of Las Colinas’, in Texas Comments: natural verdigris patina, very good overall £1,000-1,500

Provenance: private collection North Wales, consigned via our Colwyn Bay saleroom Auctioneer’s Note: Thomas James Atherton was born on 19 August 1856, and educated at Charterhouse. He entered the 12th Lancers in 1880, and succeeded to the command of the regiment in South Africa, during the Boer War, after the death in action of Lieutenant-Colonel The Earl of Airlie. The 12th Lancers were heavily engaged at Magersfontein where, with the 9th Lancers, they fought dismounted on the right flank. After taking part in the Relief of Kimberley they fought conspicuously at Diamond Hill, where they charged to save the guns of “Q” Battery, Royal Horse Artillery. It was during this charge that the Earl of Airlie was killed and Atherton was promoted Lieutenant-Colonel and assumed command. Atherton led the regiment in the sweeps around Rustenburg and Magliesberg that took place at the end of 1900, including the actions at Eland’s River and Wittebergen At the end of November 1900, Atherton handed over command of the regiment and, in July 1901, was given command of a cavalry column, comprising 480 12th Lancers and two guns of “Q” Battery R.H.A., newly formed by General French to combat the menace of Kritzinger who had re-invaded Cape Colony in May 1901. The sweep by the eleven columns along a line of 150 miles was reasonably successful and, once they had turned round and gone back on themselves, even more so. By the end of August 80 Boers had been killed, and on 12 August Kritzinger was driven out of Cape Colony. Over the following three months Atherton’s column was one of five that ceaselessly chased and harried Gideon Scheepers over Cape Colony. Scheepers was eventually captured, condemned and executed as a rebel. The remnants of Scheepers’ men headed west to join up with Smuts, and Atherton’s column was broken up in November 1901. Atherton was created a Companion of the Bath on 27 September 1901, and mentioned in Lord Roberts’ despatch of 29 November 1900, London Gazette 10 September 1901. During the Great War he served in the rank of Colonel with the Reserve Regiment of Cavalry and with the Labour Corps in France. He was twice mentioned in despatches, London Gazette 4 January and 11 December 1917, and created a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George, London Gazette 1 January 1918 Comments: mounts all foxed, and warped £700-1,000

He died in London on January 26, 1908. The second son of James Mann, merchant and collector, he took drawing lessons from the age of ten with Robert Greenlees (1820-94) and then attended evening classes at the Glasgow School of Art, where Greenlees was headmaster. In 1877 he went to Paris and enrolled at the Académie Julian, and then studied under Mihály Munkácsy and from 1881 to 1885 under Carolus-Duran. From 1883-93 Mann exhibited in London at the Royal Academy, Royal Institute of Oil Painters, Fine Art Society, New Gallery, Ridley Art Club, New English Art Club and Society of British Artists, a society that appointed James McNeill Whistler its President in 1886. At the same year he was invited to become the first Scottish member of the New English Art Club and was joined by several of his friends, notably John Lavery, Thomas Millie Dow of the Glasgow Boys and Norman Garstin. Influenced by the Hague school and by Jules Bastien-Lepage, his picture A Bead Stringer, Venice gained an honourable mention at the Salon in 1885. After a public controversy over this painting when it was exhibited at the Royal Glasgow Institute, Mann settled in England, at West Hagbourne, Berkshire, and later in the neighbouring village of Blewbury, where he painted a series of views of the Downs and portraits of country people. Mann travelled extensively in Britain, Europe and the Americas. A visit to Venice in 1884 was Alexander’s first artistic venture beyond Britain and the immediate environs of Paris; this was followed by a voyage to the Caribbean and the Southern American States, perhaps inspired by American artist friends in Paris. From 1890 to 1892 he lived with his family in Tangiers. Later he travelled to Madrid through Southern Spain in 1892 accompanied by John Lavery, another alumnus of the Académie Julian. Considered by many to be one of ‘’The Glasgow Boys.’’ Comments: good overall condition £1,000-1,500

Zinkeisen created portraits of several actors, and she designed the scenery and costumes for Noel Coward’s musical, On with the Dance. Her artwork often depicts horses and carriages in the famous parks of London and Paris, however the inclusion of a velocipede, as in our lot is most unusual.

TELEPHONE BIDDING

COMMISSION BIDDING

About: we phone you a few minutes prior to the lot you have booked a phone line on. Our operator will communicate the price and ask whether you want to bid.

About: commission bids are when you leave us your highest price to bid on your behalf. We will bid up to your price(s) and you will win items if another bidder drops out before your maximum price. If there is no other bidder then you may win the item at the bottom estimate / reserve. Commission bids must be received by 4pm the day before the auction. We are not answering the phones on auction day! How: this can be done on our website by clicking on the lot(s) you are interested in and then clicking ‘REGISTER / LOG IN TO BID’. Or you can complete a copy of the bidding form at the back of this catalogue and send a clear image of the form to us by email. Tips: there is little point in bidding below the bottom of the auction estimate and enter as high as you can so as not to regret missing out. It is always a good chance you may win the item at a smaller price.

152

How: as with ‘Commission Bids’ a form be completed and returned to us BUT by 1pm the day before the auction. Forms can be emailed, posted or are at the back of this publication. Telephone lines are limited so are on a first come first served basis. Tips: calculate or ask us at approximately what time you are likely to receive a call from us and ensure you are available on the line with a good signal, you can leave a back-up line on the form in case of any problems. It is better to have a good sense of what prices you are likely to go up to before-hand as there may be no time for indecisions!

ROGERS JONES LIVE INTERNET BIDDING About: the auction is broadcast live on our website www.rogersjones.co.uk where you will see a video and hear the sale. You will also see the bidding numerically. You can bid with your keyboard providing you have registered. There is a surcharge on each lot for using the-saleroom.com platform to bid. How: Very simply ‘click bid’ but remember that your bid is binding when successful! Tips: ensure that you your device’s speaker is switched to ‘on’, bid quickly as there may be a slight delay and remember the auctioneer cannot see you!

Rogers Jones & Co

COMPANY TERMS & CONDITIONS These conditions of business for auctions held at our premises consist of: (1)

Information for Buyers;

(2)

Terms of Sale (for bidders and buyers).

(1) INFORMATION FOR BUYERS AT AUCTIONS 1. Introduction. The following notes are intended to assist bidders and buyers, particularly those that are inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All of our auctions are governed by our Conditions of Business incorporating the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers), the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices that are displayed in our salerooms or announced by the auctioneer at the auction. Our Conditions of Business are available for inspection at our salerooms and the Terms of Sale are printed in the back of our auction catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything in our Conditions of Business that you do not fully understand. Please make sure that you read our Terms of Sale set out in this catalogue or on our website carefully before bidding in the auction. If your bid is successful, you will be obliged to comply with our Terms of Sale. 2. Methods of Payment. Lots must be paid for before they are collected. For those attending the auction we ask that lots are paid for on the day of the sale. Methods by which we accept payment are detailed on our web site, including online payment upon receipt of your invoice, and these should be paid by 5pm within five working days following the sale. We accept cash to an upper limit of 1,000 euros equivalent. We do not accept credit card payments. We are unable to accept debit-card payments when the card holder is not present. Cheques will need to be cleared before you can take the goods away. 3. Collection and storage. All lots should be paid for and collected by 5pm within five working days following the auctions in this catalogue. Absentee bidders should check the success of their bids and arrange payment and collection within this time. Please note the Terms of Sale concerning collection and storage. Items not removed in the timescale stated will be removed at the purchaser’s expense and storage charges of £10 as an administration fee and £5 per lot per day may be charged (plus VAT). 4. Dispatch. We do not offer postage for lots sold at auction in this catalogue unless they can be packed within a Jiffy-bag. We can recommend agents who can undertake packing and postage. 5. Agency. As auctioneers we usually act on behalf of the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. If you buy at auction your contract for the goods is with the seller, not with us as auctioneer. 6. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help you gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. Estimates may change and should not be thought of as the sale price. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price (the minimum price for which a lot may be sold) and will not be below the reserve price. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the auction and may be altered by a saleroom notice or announcement by the auctioneer before the auction of the lot. They are not definitive. 7. Buyer’s Premium for both The Welsh Sale and Selections: The Terms of Sale oblige you to pay 24.5% + VAT (29.4%) on all lots up to a hammer price of £24,999, 20% + VAT (24%) on all lots of a hammer price of £25,000 and over, 15% + VAT (18%) on all lots of a hammer price of £30,000 and

158

over, 10% + VAT (12%) on all lots of a hammer price of £35,000 and over on each purchased lot in the auctions contained within this catalogue. In addition, VAT is charged on the premium (see below). 8. VAT. VAT is payable by the buyer on the buyer’s premium at either the standard rate depending upon the legal requirements relating to that lot. 9. Artist’s Resale Right/Droit De Suite. EU & UK law states that the artist or artist’s estate are entitled to a royalty known as ‘artist’s resale right’ when any lot created by the artist is sold. We identify these lots with a ‡ symbol. If these laws apply to a lot, you must pay us an extra amount equal to the royalty. We will then pay the royalty to the appropriate authority on the seller’s behalf. The royalty applies if the hammer price of the lot is 1,000 euros (British Sterling equivalent) or more. The total royalty for any lot can not be more than 12,500 euros. The percentages are as follows: 4% up to 50,000 / 3% between 50,001 and 20,000. Please enquire for the accepted exchange rate on the day of the sale. Royalties for Droit de Suite are as follows: 4% Up to €50,000 3% €50,000.01 - 200,000 1% €200,000.01 - 350,000 0.5% €350,000.01 - 500,000 0.25% In excess of €500,000 Up to a maximum levy of €10,000 10. Inspection of goods by the buyer. As we act on behalf of the seller, we are dependent on information provided by the seller about their goods. We may inspect lots and will act reasonably in taking a general view about them. However, we are normally unable to carry out detailed examinations of lots to check their condition in the way a buyer would do. You will have ample opportunity to inspect the goods. You must inspect and investigate lots that you might wish to bid for. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots set out in the Terms of Sale on our website and www.the-saleroom.com

a form acceptable to us and such other information as we may require. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone or online bidding. Please note that we may refuse to register you if you do not provide us with all the information and documentation that we ask for or at our discretion. 15. Absentee bidding. You may leave absentee bids with us indicating the maximum amount to be bid against a lot (excluding the buyers’ premium and/or any applicable VAT). We will execute absentee bids as economically as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical absentee bids we may prefer the first bid received (where this can be reasonably ascertained). We recommend leaving absentee bids online via our website. All absentee bids should be received at least 30 minutes before the auction commences; we cannot guarantee to execute absentee bids received after this time. 16. Telephone Bidding. If you are unable to come to the auction it may be possible to bid on the telephone for some lots at our discretion. The number of lines is limited so we would urge serious telephone bidding only and ask that you be prepared to bid over estimate. It is advisable to leave a maximum covering bid in case we are not able to contact you by telephone. All lines must be booked and confirmed in writing before the day of the auction and preferably some time in advance. Telephone bidding involves many variables and whilst we take every care to ensure the smooth operation of this service, we cannot be held liable if your bids are missed for any reason. 17. Online Bidding. Any lots purchased via a live online bidding service will be subject to an additional commission charge on the hammer price payable by the bidder, in accordance with rates specified by the online service. If bidding through the-saleroom.com this will be charged at 5% plus VAT. The charges will be payable to us on top of the hammer price and the buyer’s premium.

11. Condition Reports. We may be able to assist buyers unable to view by emailing a condition report, but these are based solely on our own opinion and are for guidance only and no responsibility is accepted for their accuracy. Intending buyers are strongly encouraged to view. Condition reports cannot be prepared on the day of the sale. In many cases condition reports are stated in the catalogue description but this does not act as a guarantee that the report is factually correct and it must not be taken as guaranteed that items without condition reports stated in the description are free from issues, such as damage, restoration or other problems.

(2) TERMS OF SALE

12. Electrical goods. These are sold as “objects” only. If you buy electrical goods for use you must ask a qualified electrician to check them for compliance with safety regulations before you use them.

Please note that these Terms of Sale relate to auctions held at our premises only. We have separate terms for online only auctions.

13. Export of goods. If you intend to export goods you must find out: 1. whether an export licence is needed; and 2. if there is a prohibition on importing goods of that character e.g. because the goods contain prohibited materials such as ivory. 14. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register with us before the auction starts. We reserve the right to impose a deadline prior to the auction by which you must register or by which we must receive a commission bid. If you wish to bid on high value lots this deadline may be several days before the auction in order to allow us sufficient time to carry out the necessary checks. Lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. You will need to provide us with proof of your identity in

Both the sale of goods at our auctions and your relationship with us are governed by the Terms of Consignment (primarily applicable to sellers) the Terms of Sale (primarily applicable to bidders and buyers) and any notices displayed in the saleroom or announced by us at the auction (collectively, the “Conditions of Business”). The Terms of Consignment and Terms of Sale are available at our saleroom on request. Please read these Terms of Sale carefully. Please note that if you register to bid and/or bid at auction this signifies that you agree to and will comply with these Terms of Sale.

The contract between you and the Seller 6.1 The contract for the purchase of the Lot between you and the Seller will be formed when the hammer falls accepting the highest bid for the Lot at the auction. 6.2 You may directly enforce any terms in the Terms of Consignment against a Seller to the extent that you suffer damages and/or loss as a result of the Seller’s breach of the Terms of Consignment. 6.3 If you breach these Terms of Sale, you may be responsible for damages and/or losses suffered by a Seller or us.

We will pay the proceeds of any such sale to you, but will deduct any storage charges or other sums that we have incurred in the storage and sale of the Lot. We reserve the right to charge you a selling commission at our standard rates on any such resale of the Lot. 9. Remedies for non-payment or failure to collect purchases 9.1 Please do not bid on a Lot if you do not intend to buy it. If your bid is successful, these Terms of Sale will apply to you.

We will contact you before exercising these rights and try to work with you to correct any non-compliance by you with these Terms of Sale.

Loss or damage is foreseeable if it is obvious that it will happen or if at the time of the sale of the Lot, we, you and the Seller knew it might happen.

17.2 We act as an agent for our Sellers. The rights we have to claim against you for breach of these Terms of Sale may be used by either us, our employees or agents, or the Seller, its employees or agents, as appropriate. Other than as set out in this Clause, these Terms of Sale are between you and us and no other person will have any rights to enforce any of these Terms of Sale.

11.4 If a Lot is not second-hand and you purchase the Lot as a Consumer from a Seller that is a Trader, a number of additional terms may be implied by law in addition to the Seller’s warranties set out at Clause 11.1 (in particular under the Consumer Rights Act 2015). These Terms of Sale do not seek to exclude your rights under law as they relate to the sale of these Lots. 11.5 Save as expressly set out above, all other warranties, conditions or other terms which might have effect between the Seller and you, or us and you, or be implied or incorporated by statue, common law or otherwise are excluded. 12. Descriptions and condition 12.1 Our descriptions of the Lot will be based on: (a) information provided to us by the Seller of the Lot (for which we are not liable); and (ii) our opinion (although it is likely that we will not be able to carry out a detailed inspection of each Lot). 12.2 We will give you a number of opportunities to view and inspect the Lots before the auction. You (and any independent consultants acting on your behalf) must satisfy yourself about the accuracy of any description of a Lot. We shall not be responsible for any failure by you or your consultants to properly inspect a Lot. 12.3 Representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion will be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. 12.4 Please note that Lots (in particular second-hand Lots) are unlikely to be in perfect condition. Lots are sold “as is” (i.e. as you see them at the time of the auction). Neither we nor the Seller accept any liability for the condition of second-hand Lots or for any condition issues affecting a Lot if such issues are included in the description of a Lot in the auction catalogue (or in any saleroom notice) and/ or which the inspection of a Lot by the Buyer ought to have revealed.

14.3 Subject to Clause 14.4, if we are found to be liable to you for any reason (including, amongst others, if we are found to be negligent, in breach of contract or to have made a misrepresentation), our liability will be limited to the total purchase price paid by you to us for any Lot. 14.4 Notwithstanding the above, nothing in these Terms of Sale shall limit our liability (or that of our employees or agents) for: 14.4.1 death or personal injury resulting from negligence (as defined in the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977); 14.4.2 fraudulent misrepresentation; or 14.4.3 any liability which cannot be excluded by law. 15. Notices 15.1 All notices between you and us regarding these Terms of Sale must be in writing and signed by or on behalf of the party giving it. 15.2 Any notice referred in Clause 15.1 may be given: 15.2.1 by delivering it by hand; 15.2.2 by first class pre-paid post or Recorded Delivery; or 15.2.3 by email, provided that receipt of the email is acknowledged by the recipient. 15.3 Notices must be sent: 15.3.1 by hand or registered post: 1. to us, at our address set out in these Terms of Sale or at our registered office address appearing on our Website; and 2. to you, at the last postal address that you have given to us as your contact address in writing; or

We will hold and process any personal data in relation to you in accordance with our current privacy policy, a copy of which is available on our website.

17.3 We may use special terms in the catalogue descriptions of particular Lots. You must read these terms carefully along with any glossary provided in our auction catalogues. 17.4 Each of the clauses of these Terms of Sale operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining clauses will remain in full force and effect. 17.5 We may change these Terms of Sale from time to time, without notice to you. Please read these Terms of Sale carefully, as they may be different from the last time you read them. 17.6 Except as otherwise stated in these Terms of Sale, each of our rights and remedies are: (a) are in addition to and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies under these Terms of Sale or general law; and (b) may be waived only in writing and specifically. Delay in exercising or non-exercise of any right under these Terms of Sale is not a waiver of that or any other right. Partial exercise of any right under these Terms of Sale will not preclude any further or other exercise of that right or any other right under these Terms of Sale. Waiver of a breach of any term of these Terms of Sale will not operate as a waiver of breach of any other term or any subsequent breach of that term. 17.7 These Terms of Sale and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them (including any non-contractual claims or disputes) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the British law and British courts. These terms are based upon the recommended terms of sale by the Society of Fine Art Auctioneers and Valuers.
