By the Committee Boat: “Are you Ready?”
Signed and dated W H BARTLETT 1890 (lower right)
Oil on canvas
75.1 x 117.2cm
Exhibited:
London, Royal Academy, 1890, no.294
Literature: Henry Blackburn (ed), Academy Notes 1890 (London, Chatto and Windus, 1890), pp.11, 61 (illustrated); Philip Payton (ed), Cornish Studies, vol.18 (illustrated on cover); David Tovey, Pioneers of St. Ives Art at Home and Abroad (1889-1914) (Wilson Books, 2008), p.53-53, fig.2.8
The present work shows the start of a swimming race in St Ives. William Henry Bartlett exhibited the painting at the Royal Academy in 1890, but close comparison of contemporary illustrations with the present work shows that he subsequently made various compositional changes. These include painting out the racers’ swimming caps, removing a rowing boat, and adding in Smeaton’s Pier, before re-signing the painting.

Moonrise
Signed CRW Nevinson (to reverse of frame, CRW in ligature) Oil on canvas, c.1916
22.2 x 31.9cm
Provenance:
Given by the artist to the present owner’s grandmother, Miss Marjorie Puttick; And by descent
Exhibited:
Possibly London, The Alpine Club Gallery, The Friday Club, March-April 1916 (as Night: Light: Cloud: An Interpretation)
The present work was probably executed c.1916, demonstrating elements of the Post-Impressionist style that Nevinson was employing around 1912, and anticipating the more traditional landscapes he exhibited in 1919. Marjorie Puttick was a friend of Nevinson’s, and they probably met when they were both studying at the Slade School of Art.
We are grateful to Christopher Martin for his assistance cataloguing the present work.

“Among wild growth on the Estate this baby fawn has been found – a newly born little creature deserted. One of my friends fed it from a bottle and kept it happy. Eventually it went back to the wild. I do not know what type of deer it was, but was entranced with the lovely little creature, so timid, but trusting”.
- Dame Laura Knight in a letter regarding the present work
Laura Knight painted this work in the 1930s, whilst she and her husband Harold were staying with their close friend George Cross at Compton Hall, Compton Chamberlayne near Salisbury. The Knights first met Cross in 1928, when he commissioned Laura to painting a portrait of Rosemary Ealand. They became close friends, and the Knights spent several Christmases at Compton Hall in the early 1930s. Both artists painted several works there, and on occasion Harold was joined by Lamorna Birch to take advantage of the trout fishing available on the estate.
We are grateful to John Crofts for his assistance cataloguing the present work. The painting is no.339, in his forthcoming catalogue raisonné of Laura Knight’s work.

Provenance:
Ian MacNicol, Glasgow, where purchased by the present private collectors, April 1977; Private Collection, Yorkshire
George Leslie Hunter’s first visit to Venice came in 1922, the same year he also painted in Paris and Florence. It was during his visit to Paris that he encountered the latest work of Henri Matisse, which had a profound effect on the development of Hunter’s style. The present work is one of only twenty-three Venetian oils to survive, and is typical of the period, with its short sharp brushstrokes of vivid colour, and areas of exposed board.

“Everyone must choose his own way, and mine will be the way of colour”
- George Leslie Hunter
George Leslie Hunter began working in Fifeshire in 1919 and returned there frequently during the early 1920s. Fishing villages such as Largo and Ceres were recurring subjects, through which he demonstrated the influence of French art, including Matisse and above all Cézanne. The present work shows how Hunter would use rapid brushstrokes of strong colour from across the spectrum to build up form.

Exhibited: Leicester Galleries, Exhibition of Pastels by Simon Bussy and Contemporary Paintings, February-March 1931, no.5
Simon Busy travelled to Egypt and the Middle-East between November 1928 and April 1929. Philippe Loisel believes the present work was probably executed in November 1928, although Busy also revisited Cairo in late February and early March the following year.
The present work later served as the basis for Bussy’s Les grandes pyramides de Gisèh en saison de crue (see Gabriel Hanotaux, Histoire de la Nation Egyptienne (Paris, 1931-1940), vol. II, p. 80).

Signed and dated michael ayrton 47 (lower left)
Oil on board

Provenance:
The Hanover Gallery, London, where purchased by Dr T. C. N. Gibbens; And by descent
This painting is one of a series of works inspired by the fishermen and their families on Ischia, and represents an important link between Michael Ayrton’s Neo-Romantic works of the early 1940s and the more sculptural style he developed after the War, when he travelled extensively in Italy and came under the influence of Masaccio and Piero della Francesca. The muted palette, texture and handling of the paint have a deliberately fresco-like quality, and the enigmatic situation is typical of Ayrton’s desire to emulate, in his own words ‘the monumental images, timeless, impersonal and yet human … filled with secret communication and unspecified drama’ of the early Renaissance masters.
We are grateful to Dr Justine Hopkins for her assistance cataloguing the present work.

This drawing is a study for Michael Ayrton’s first novel, Tittivulus (Max Reinhardt, 1953; first conceived for BBC Radio and broadcast 22 December 1952). In the published version the nuns weren’t included, and mentioned only as a passing reference, making this work a unique insight into Ayrton’s early thoughts.

THE COLLECTION OF MICHAEL AND HENRIETTA GOUGH
Michael and Henrietta Gough were avid collectors, who filled their Dorset home with paintings and ceramics. The collection’s focus was Modern British Art, and many of the artists they collected were great friends with the couple, most notably Elisabeth Frink and Mary Fedden. Frink’s home and studio at Woolland was nearby, and Fedden was a frequent visitor to Dorset. Indeed several of the works offered here have personalised dedications from Fedden to Michael and Henrietta. The couple’s taste was wide-ranging, and the collection includes examples by Winifred Nicholson, John Craxton, Maggi Hambling and Euan Uglow. They also collected late 19th and early 20th century continental drawings, by artists such as Pierre Bonnard, Théophile Steinlen and Jean-Louis Forain.
Michael and Henrietta married in 1981 and prior to this Henrietta had worked at Sotheby’s. Michael was an actor, of both theatre and film, who acted in the Hammer horror films and Doctor Who, playing the titular villain in The Celestial Toymaker. His most famous role was probably as Batman’s butler Alfred in four films, opposite variously George Clooney, Michael Keaton and Val Kilmer.
As well as fine art, the Goughs collected studio pottery, from Richard Batterham and Phil Rogers, to Prue Piper, Chris Keenan and Emmanuel Cooper, bought from galleries and the potters directly, which complemented the paintings and sculpture. These will be offered in our British Art Pottery auction on Tuesday 3rd December (lots 206-225).

One of Elizabeth Frink’s recurring subjects was the wild boar. She first encountered them whilst living in the south of France, where she moved to in 1967. As she explained 'One of the reasons I started sculpting boars was that when I lived in France, in the Cevennes, we were surrounded by woods and we could actually see wild boars, especially at night. On moonlit nights they'd be making their passages down to the Camargue. They're very fascinating, shy creatures.' By slightly raising the foreleg, Frink has brilliantly imbued her subject with a sense of movement and animation.

Provenance:
Commissioned by the Morris Singer Foundry; From whom purchased by the present owner c.1973; Private Collection, London
Exhibited:

Bryan Robertson (intro.), Elisabeth Frink Sculpture: Catalogue Raisonné, Salisbury,1984, p.181, no.207 (another cast illustrated);

In 1971 the Morris Singer Foundry commissioned a series of works from some of the leading British sculptors of the time, including Barbara Hepworth, Lynn Chadwick, and Elisabeth Frink. They were asked to create small-scale works, each cast in 18 carat gold. Unsurprisingly, for such a prestigious commission, Frink turned to one of her favourite subjects, and created Rolling Over Horse. A contemporary review of an exhibition of these sculptures at Goldsmith’s Hall argued that the commission stands testament to the identities of each artist: ‘Together they are miniature examples of the spirit of contemporary sculpture in free-standing form… all of them establishing iconic identities within their own intrinsic scales’ (G. Whittet, Art and Artists, London, March 1975, p. 41).
Horses are one of the defining subjects in Frink's work. Throughout her career she 'was fascinated by how they moved and looked'. Her affinity with the animal stemmed from her rural childhood, when she learned to ride from a young age. However, she was less interested in sculpting a physically accurate rendering of the horse, than capturing ‘the spirit of the animal’. This interest in the horse’s character is reflected in the alert way it raises its head, imbuing the sculpture with a sense of potential energy.

LOT SYMBOLS
VAT
Lots marked with a dagger (†) are subject to VAT on the hammer price. Lots marked with an omega (Ω) have been temporarily imported from outside the EU and are subject to VAT at 5% on the hammer price and the buyer’s premium. In online catalogues, the Sales Tax % column indicates the rate of VAT on hammer price.
CITES REGULATIONS
Please note that lots marked λ may be subject to CITES Regulations when exported.
The CITES Regulations may be found at www.defra.gov.uk/ahvla-en/imports-exports/cites/
ARTIST’S
RESALE RIGHT / DROIT DE SUITE
Lots marked with a Φ symbol are potentially subject to a levy.
Droit de Suite is a royalty payable to a qualifying artist or the artist’s heirs each time a work is resold during the artist’s lifetime and up to a period of 70 years after the artist’s death.
Royalties are calculated on a sliding percentage scale based on the hammer price excluding the buyer’s premium. The royalty does not apply to lots selling below £1,000 and the maximum royalty payable on any single lot is £12,500.
Droit de Suite, which is not subject to VAT, will be added to the buyer’s purchase price and then passed on to the relevant collecting agency.
Royalties for Droit de Suite are as follows:
4% Up to £50,000
3%
1%
0.5%
£50,000.01 - 200,000
£200,000.01 - 350,000
£350,000.01 - 500,000
0.25% In excess of £500,000
Up to a maximum levy of £12,500
FIREARMS
Lots marked Ƒ in the catalogue, or by any other means identified as controlled firearms, are subject to the UK firearms/shotgun licencing regime, and should only be viewed/ purchased by individuals with appropriate licences. It is the responsibility of the bidders to ensure that they are legally authorised to acquire the lot that they are bidding for. In the event that such a lot is successfully bid for by an individual who is not authorised to possess it, that individual will be required to pay for it, but are not allowed to take physical possession of it. The auctioneers will reoffer the lot on behalf of the buyer in a future auction; or may accept instructions to dispose of it by some other legal means, at their discretion.
ROYAL INSTITUTION OF CHARTERED SUREYORS CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS
INFORMATION FOR BUYERS
1. Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.
2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.
3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.
4. The purchase price. The Buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 26% plus VAT @20% (totalling 31.2% inclusive) on the first £500,000 and 20% plus VAT @20% (24%) inclusive thereafter.
5. VAT. (†) indicates that VAT at the current standard rate is payable by the purchaser on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The symbol (Ω) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium). Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax.
6. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).
7. Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.
8. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required for the goods to leave the U.K. and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing the goods in question into the destination country because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Charges may be applicable for export licences. Ask us if you need help. The denial of any permit or licence shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale contract or any delay in payment.
9. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification will be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.
10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone.
11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will need to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discuss with client services in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are envisaged (except cash).
12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage charges.
TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS
1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.
2. Commission is charged to sellers at the following rates: 15% + VAT on each lot sold for up to £999, 10% + VAT on each lot realising £1,000 and above.
3. Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the sale room by any stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility.
4. Loss and damage waiver. We are not regulated by the FSA for the provision of insurance to clients. However, we for our own protection assume liability for property consigned to us at lower pre-sale estimate. To justify accepting liability, we make a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT or, if unsold, our mid estimate of the hammer price. If the owner of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, they then remain at owner’s risk unless and until the property in them passes to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 4 is inapplicable.
5. Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the lot should be illustrated your permission will usually be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue.
6. Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods may be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7.
7. We may sell lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us ‘discretion’ we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve.
Reserves.
(a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve (in which case goods carry the storage and insurance charges stipulated in these Terms of Consignment).
(b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent.
(c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally.
8. Electrical items. These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls. Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.
9. Soft furnishings. The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. The rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 and 9 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request.
10. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary. Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds. The liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery but we are or ought to have been aware of it.
11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is unsold it may with your consent be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred. We reserve the right to charge for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.
12. Withdrawn and bought in items. These are liable to incur a charge of up to 10% plus VAT of the reserve or low estimate on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued.
13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold on our Conditions of Sale. In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods either as owner or agent for the owner. You undertake to compensate us and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking.
14. Authority to deduct commission and expenses and retain premium and interest.
(a) You authorise us to deduct commission at the stated rate and all expenses incurred for your account from the hammer price and consent to our right to retain beneficially the premium paid by the buyer in accordance with our Conditions of Sale and any interest earned on the sale proceeds until the date of settlement.
(b) You authorise us in our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business on the day of the sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these terms apply.
15. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make minimum warehousing charge of £2 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If not removed within three weeks we reserve the right to sell them and defray charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to the local authority for disposal.
16. Settlement. Subject to our normal trading conditions, payment will be made by BACS or cheque six weeks after the sale unless the buyer has not paid for the goods. In this case no settlement will then be made but we will take your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above. You should therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale until the expiry of 28 days from the date of sale.

(b) the maker of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer conducting the sale shall be the buyer at the hammer price and any dispute about a bid shall be settled at the auctioneer’s absolute discretion by reoffering the Lot during the course of the auction or otherwise. The auctioneer shall act reasonably in exercising this discretion.
(c) Bidders shall be deemed to act as principals.

5. VALUE ADDED TAX
Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed with a † or Ω.

(c) In line with new legislation we reserve the right to investigate and identify the source of any funds received by us. The completion of the sale of a Lot will be postponed or cancelled at our discretion if further time is needed for investigation, or if you are in breach of your warranties as a buyer, or if we consider the sale to be unlawful or in any way cause liabilities or be detrimental to either Woolley and Wallis or the Seller.
7. TITLE AND COLLECTION OF PURCHASES
(a) The ownership of any Lots purchased shall not pass to you until you have made payment in full to us of the total amount due.
(b) You shall at your own risk and expense collect any lots that you have purchased and paid for from our premises not later than 3 working days following the day of the auction or upon the clearance of any cheque used for payment (if later) after which you shall be responsible for any collection, storage and insurance charges.
(c) No purchase may be collected and we shall not release any lot to you or your agent until it has been paid for.
8. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES
(a) If any Lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these Conditions or if there is any other breach of these Conditions, we, as agent for the seller and on our own behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights and remedies:
(i) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract;
(ii) to rescind the sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by us to you;
(iii) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after crediting any part payment and adding any resale costs). Any surplus so arising shall belong to the seller;
(iv) to remove, store and insure the lot at your expense and, in the case of storage, either at our premises or elsewhere;

(b) We shall, as agent for the seller and on our own behalf pursue these rights and remedies only so far as is reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect of breach of these conditions
9. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY
All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements. Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur
liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior to or at a sale.
10. COMMISSION BIDS
Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition, we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so save where such failure is unreasonable. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.
11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY
The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.
12. AGENCY
The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers.
13. TERMS OF SALE
The seller acknowledges that lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the lot.
14. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION
(a) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, 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 shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 ‘information to buyers’.
(b) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation.
15. FORGERIES
Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.
GENERAL
16. We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises or attendance at our auctions by any person.
17. (a) Any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as appropriate.
(b) Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them.
18. Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail or Swiftmail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting.
19. Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing in the catalogue.
20. Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular
concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect.
21. English law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions.
22. Prior written consent must be sought by the buyer or any other party for the use of any images, illustrations and written materials produced by or for Woolley & Wallis relating to a lot or sale, including the contents of a catalogue. Copyright for any of the aforementioned will remain the property of Woolley & Wallis, subject to the provisions of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Woolley & Wallis and the seller make no representations or warranties that the buyer of a lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights to it.

VALUATIONS
Valuations are a core part of our business and are usually carried out by a senior specialist or director. Accuracy, speed and above all confidentiality are paramount.
INSURANCE VALUATIONS
Written valuations for insurance can vary from a single item to a large estate. Before starting we discuss the various options available so that the valuation is specifically tailored to individual clients’ needs.
For valuations of an entire house contents an itemised bound valuation is produced and can be accompanied by photographs when required. In addition to providing an inventory, written valuations can prevent painful arguments with a loss adjuster in the event of a claim.
Woolley and Wallis valuations are accepted by all leading insurance companies.
PROBATE VALUATIONS
We offer a speedy and professional service for executors and trustees and provide bound valuations for probate and duplicate copies when required. Since security is often a consideration, we can usually arrange for a house to be cleared and sent for auction, our Valuations Department ensures that executors are informed of which sales are involved and the results thereof.
