Male elder’s long fingernails symbolize his wealthy status. While female’s hands are concealed, alluding to Confucian reservations at the time.

077 Playing with Baby Frame: 64 x 74 cm; 42 x 52 cm Generally stable. English oil painting on canvas depicting indoor scene with mother and daughter playing with baby, signed by John Locker and dated 1872.
Showing off his mastery as a colorist, Locker painted the scene ensuring the single light source from the window diffuses onto an ochre-tone feel across the small room, becoming warmer as light recedes to dimness toward the corners. Coloring such a necessitous scene brings melancholia before the spectator. But the subjects (mother, her daughter and baby) resist against the saddening milieu, and appreciate the simple joys of life instead.
Christie’s auctioned the same painting in 1995, titled “Playing with Baby” which was sold at EUR 1,343.00.

Untitled European 19th century painting depicting a royal court scene, beholden by an older man in scholar’s gown seemly pointing to a map before two monarchs wearing furry clothes. Possible subject could be King Charles I of Spain listening to Magellan’s proposal on Westward exploration toward the East. At that time, King Charles was the concurrent Holy Roman Emperor Charles V—signified here by furry clothings and the dominating red background. Red, with gold, also alludes to Castilla y Leon. The female monarch represents “La Corona” (i.e., Castillan metonymy for Spain), pointing to the left (representing West), as she counsels the perplexed King. Personifying of La Corona explains the absence of an actual crown on the king’s head. Magellan’s clothing matches his portrait in a 16th century colored engraving, now in The Granger Collection, in New York.

CDM shall not be liable for any misrepresentation or wrong information provided by the sellers with respect to the Lots. Prospective buyers acknowledge these facts and accept their responsibility to carry out such investigations and inspections as may be necessary to satisfy themselves with respect to the Lots in which they may be interested in prior to the sale. b.

CDM and the sellers do not provide any guarantee with respect to the Lots sold at auction. Said Lots are sold on an “as is” basis. All sales are final.
Article IV: Descriptions of Property a. Statements made by CDM in the catalogue or website, in condition reports, or made orally or in
page 2/7 2/7 page
writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion. Therefore, these statements cannot be construed or relied on as factual representations, implied or express warranties or assumptions of liability.

Buyers have the duty to satisfy themselves about the condition of the Lots sold at auction and the matters referred to in the catalogue entries. b. References in the catalogue entry or the condition report to damage or restoration are for guidance only. These references should be evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. c.

In making express statements in its catalogue descriptions or condition reports, CDM shall exercise such reasonable care as is consistent with: (1) its role as auctioneer; (2) the information provided by the sellers; (3) scholarship and technical knowledge; and (4) expert opinions as of the date these expert opinions are made.
Article V: Estimates a. Each Lot in the catalogue is given a low starting bid. This estimate represents the range which, in the opinion of CDM, represents a fair and probable auction value. This estimate does not include the Buyer’s Premium referred to in Section 10 hereunder. b. Pre-sale estimates are intended only as a guide for prospective buyers and are subject to revision. The actual prices realized for items can also fall below or above the range of these estimates. Thus, an estimate of
www.casadememoria.com www.casadememoria.com
auction 2017 auction .0009 .0013 2018
the selling price should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or its value for any other purpose.
Article VI: Admission to the Auction a. CDM has the right at their absolute discretion to refuse to allow prospective buyers admission to or participation in an auction. b. Prior to bidding, all bidders are required to complete and sign registration forms and provide a government issued identification card (e.g., a passport or driver’s license). c. Bidders present at the live auction shall express their interest to participate in the auction by providing CDM with their full credit card details and shall execute an undertaking allowing CDM to charge a ten percent (10%) penalty on the final bid on the aforementioned credit card in the event that the bidder is unable to pay the full purchase price in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 10. d. Upon completion of the above admission process, CDM shall issue bidding paddles to the bidders.
Article VII: Sale and Withdrawal from Sale a. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer, all bids are per Lot as numbered in the catalogue. b. CDM reserves the right to withdraw from any sale any of the Lots listed at any time prior to the commencement of bidding for such Lot and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal. c. Unless otherwise indicated, a Lot shall be offered subject to a minimum price (the “Reserve”). The Reserve shall not exceed the low pre-sale estimate at the time of the auction. As a general rule, the Reserve is agreed upon by CDM and the sellers. CDM has the right to set the Reserve in the absence of an agreement with the seller.
Article VIII: Bidding a. Bidders shall be personally liable for their bids unless they have secured CDM’s prior written consent to act as agents for identified third parties acceptable to CDM. Bidders who act as agents shall be jointly and severally liable with their principals. b. Absentee Bids - CDM shall use reasonable efforts to carry out written absentee bids delivered prior to the sale. If written bids for identical amounts are received for a particular Lot and these turn out to be the highest bids at the auction, the Lot will be sold to the person whose bid was received and accepted first. The execution of absentee bids is a free service that is undertaken subject to other commitments of CDM during the auction. CDM shall not be liable for failure to execute a written bid or for errors or omissions committed in connection with said bid. c. Live Online Bids- CDM shall use reasonable efforts to carry out live online bids that are placed or delivered in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the agreement between CDM and the third party provider of the online bidding platform. If live online bids for identical bids are received for a particular Lot and these turn out to be the highest bids at the auction, the Lot will be sold to the person whose bid was received and accepted first. The execution of online bids is a free service that is undertaken subject to other commitments of CDM during the auction. CDM shall not be liable for failure to execute an online bid or for errors or omissions committed in connection with said bid. d. Telephone Bids- CDM shall use reasonable efforts to contact prospective buyers who have made prior arrangements to place telephone bids in order for these buyers to participate in the auction. CDM shall not be liable for its failure to contact said bidders or for any errors or omissions made in connection with telephone bids since telephone bids are offered as a free service that is undertaken subject to the other commitments of CDM during the sale.
Article IX: Conduct of Auction a. The auctioneer has the discretion to commence and advance the bidding at the levels and increments which he considers appropriate. The auctioneer also has the right to divide or to combine any Lots. As
page 3/7 1/7 page
www.casadememoria.com www.casadememoria.com
auction 2017 auction .0009 .0013 2018
a general rule, CDM will follow ten percent (10%) increments, subject to the condition that said increment may change from time to time or at any time during the auction if the auctioneer sees the need. b. To implement the Reserve, the auctioneer may open bidding on any Lot by placing a bid on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the seller. The auctioneer may further bid on behalf of the seller, up to the amount of the Reserve, by placing successive or consecutive bids for a Lot or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Unless otherwise indicated in the catalogue or by an announcement at the auction, CDM acts as agent on behalf of the seller and does not permit the seller to bid on his or her own property. c. The auctioneer may refuse to acknowledge any bidder and to reject bids. If any dispute arises between two or more bidders or in case of error, the auctioneer may decide the same or may re-offer and resell a Lot. The auctioneer has the right to determine the successful bidder and take such other actions as he deems fit under the circumstances. If any dispute arises after the sale, CDM sales record shall be conclusive. d. The auctioneers bidding increments:

Article X: Purchase of Lots a. Subject to the auctioneer’s discretion, the highest bidder accepted by the auctioneer will be the buyer. The striking of the auctioneer’s hammer shall mark the acceptance of the highest bid (the “Hammer Price”) and the conclusion of a contract of sale between the seller and the buyer. b. Upon the striking of the auctioneer’s hammer, the buyer shall become liable for the payment of the Full Purchase Price (as such term is defined under Article 11 below). The buyer shall likewise assume full risk and responsibility for the purchased Lot (including, without limitation, liability for or damage to frames and glass covering prints, paintings or other works) upon the striking of the auctioneer’s hammer.
Article XI: Payment a. In addition to the hammer price of the Lot, CDM shall collect from the buyer a premium (the “Buyer’s Premium”).

A portion CDM’s buyer’s premium will be donated to CDM’s foundation of choice. b. The buyer shall pay the full amount due (i.e., hammer price, buyer’s premium and any applicable fees, taxes and charges) in cleared funds not later than five (5) business days after the date of the auction (the “Full Purchase Price”). Unless prior written arrangements have been made, the Full Purchase Price shall be paid in Philippine Pesos (or converted to Philippine Pesos based on the conversion rate at the time of payment). The buyer shall be solely responsible for any currency conversion charges and wire transfer fees. c. Unless prior written arrangements have been made, payment shall be made in Philippine Pesos.

Article XII: Transfer of Title and Release of Lots a. Title over a purchased Lot will not pass to the buyer until and unless CDM receives the Full Purchase Price in cleared funds.

Any other taxes or fees that may arise in relation to the purchase of a Lot shall be for the sole account of the buyer.
Article XIV: Remedies Incase of Buyer’s Default a. Non-Payment or Non-Withdrawal of the Purchased lots- If any lot has not been paid for in full and withdrawn under the deadlines and in accordance with the Terms and Conditions established in Article 11, Section b,CDM, in its capacity as the Seller’s representative, may, without prejudice to any other rights to which it is entitled, adopt one or more of the following courses of action:
Article XIII: Packing and Handling of Lots a. The packing and handling of the purchased Lots shall be at the buyer’s risk. CDM shall in no way be liable for any acts or omissions of third party packers or shippers, regardless of whether these third party packers or shippers were recommended by CDM upon the buyer’s request. b.
