Patrick Noon, Senior Curator of Paintings and Elizabeth MacMillan Chair of the Department of Paintings at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, has observed that the present work, “... is an allegory honoring some naval hero. With West, Nelson comes first to mind since he painted the subject of Nelson’s death as well as several apotheosis compositions. However, the bust of the figure being honored does not resemble Nelson and seems to represent an older man, perhaps Alexander Hood?” We extend our gratitude to Mr. Noon for his very kind assistance in cataloguing this lot.

Payne, authors of the article, “To Please the Eye: Justus Da Lee and His Family,” [Folk Art, vol. 29, no 4, Winter 2004/5, pp. 46-57] write that Justus Da Lee was a small watercolor portrait artist from Cambridge, NY. “While Justus was the major artist of the family, starting in the 1830s, several of his family members also painted in an extremely similar style. This artist career for the family group continued until 1848, after which Justus was described as a grocer in Buffalo, NY.” We thank the Paynes for their kind assistance in cataloguing this work.

19 19 Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait American, 1819-1905 Solitude, Eagle Bay, Adirondacks, NY, 1883 Signed A. F. Tait. NA. and dated N.Y. 83 (lr); inscribed as titled on the backing Oil on canvas 20 x 30 inches Provenance: Kennedy Galleries, New York; inv. A12862 Herbert Shuttleworth, Amsterdam, NY Thence by descent to the present owner Considered one of America’s finest animal painters, Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait made his first trip to the Adirondacks in 1852. An enthusiastic sportsman, outdoorsman and amateur naturalist, he was inspired by the rustic terrain of the Adirondacks well into the later years of his life, spending many summers painting and sketching there. He built a summer camp on South Pond near Long Lake, eventually establishing a year-round home there named Woodside. While Tait lived much of the time in the Adirondacks, he also maintained a studio in New York City and spent his last years in Yonkers, NY. He painted in and around Upper and Lower Chateaugay Lakes in the northern Adirondacks by 1852 and around Raquette Lake in Hamilton County by the early 1870s. Just north of Old Forge in Herkimer County, NY, Eagle Bay is roughly thirty-five miles from South Pond. The panoramic view in the present work captures the majesty of the Adirondack region that so appealed to the artist. Perhaps pausing to drink in the pristine water, the three deer are rendered with the sensitivity characteristic of Tait’s paintings of wildlife. “America owes a heavy debt of gratitude to A. F. Tait,” wrote the editor of Antiques in 1933, “Though born an Englishman, he had lived in this country long enough, and loved it deeply enough, to record pictorially distinctive aspects of its life with penetrating sympathy and undeviating accuracy of detail.” C $15,000-25,000 See Illustration

Despite strict laws banning the art of tattoo, the practice flourished in Japan during the Edo period. People at the lower end of the social spectrum, including fire fighters, dock workers and palanquin bearers, ignored the ban and bore elaborate tattoos inspired by Japanese woodblock prints, as seen in this exquisite painting by Harry Humphrey Moore. Palanquin bearers transported litters held aloft by poles resting on their shoulders. In the present work, a palanquin bearer is shown at rest, leaning upon a pole while he awaits a passenger, his vehicle quickly sketched in at left. C $2,000-3,000 See Illustration

Harry Humphrey Moore traveled extensively throughout his career. While still a student in Paris, he journeyed to Spain and also traveled to North Africa. This view may depict an encampment in one of these countries. From one of his extant works, Gypsy Encampment, Granada, it is clear that themes of this type interested Moore. The horse is beautifully realized, testimony to Moore’s great skills as a draftsman. C $1,200-1,800 See Illustration

76 Daniel Chester French American, 1850-1931 Standing Figure of Daniel Webster, 1931 Signed D C French, dated 1931 and copyrighted on base at rear Bronze with brown patina Height 11 1/4 inches In 1931, Daniel Chester French was commissioned to sculpt a bronze portrait bust of Daniel Webster. Incomplete at the time of his death in October 1931, the final bronze was finished by French’s daughter, Margaret French Cresson. It stands by the Congregational Church in Franklin, New Hampshire, where Webster was born. French was convinced that the monument should include a full-length standing figure of the orator, rather than the proposed portrait bust. By June 1931 he had already made some preliminary sketches or maquettes, which may possibly include the present work. In a letter from July 11, 1931 to Senator George H. Moses, the sculptor wrote, “I am particularly interested in this monument to Webster, so much so that I have been led to make some sketch models, and the more I have considered the subject, the more I am convinced that if it is possible to afford it, there should be a statue rather than a bust or a relief. I feel so strongly about this, and I have developed so keen a desire to deal with the problem, that I feel disposed to make almost any concessions in my price to meet the appropriation available for the monument.” We extend our gratitude to Chesterwood, the country home and studio of Daniel Chester French.

Doyle is honored to auction the collection of award-winning costume designer WILLA KIM and her husband, writer and illustrator WILLIAM PÈNE DU BOIS, son of the prominent American artist Guy Pène du Bois. Willa Kim (1917-2016) The daughter of Korean immigrants, Wullah Mei Ok Kim (she later changed the spelling to Willa) grew up in Los Angeles and dreamed of becoming a fashion illustrator and painter. After graduating from Belmont High School, where she was an art editor of the yearbook, she studied art at Los Angeles City College and received a scholarship to the Chouinard Art Institute (now the California Institute of the Arts, CalArts). She worked briefly as a fashion illustrator at the May Company department store in 1942 before joining Paramount Studios. There she worked with the famed costume designers Barbara Karinska and Raoul Pène du Bois on such films as Lady in the Dark (1944) starring Ginger Rogers. In 1945, Broadway beckoned and Willa worked with Raoul on her first stage musical, Are you with It? She returned to Los Angeles to study art with Rico LeBrun, a leading modernist, at the Jepson Art Institute, but in 1950 came back to New York to work with Raoul on a number of successful Broadway productions, including Gypsy, The Music Man and Bells Are Ringing.

On a visit to France, Willa and her friend, artist Margaret Stark, were invited to spend Thanksgiving with Raoul and the Pène du Bois family. It was during this visit that Willa met Raoul’s cousin, William Pène du Bois, a writer and illustrator of children’s books. Willa and William were married in New York in 1955.

In the 1960s, Willa began her solo career designing for a series of Broadway productions, and by the 1970s her work began to be recognized by the Tony Awards. She received her first Tony Award for Best Costume Design in 1981 for Sophisticated Ladies, a glamorous musical revue based on the music of Duke Ellington. A decade later, she received her second Tony Award for her work on Tommy Tune’s The Will Rogers Follies, an ode to the famous humorist and the dazzling Ziegfeld extravaganzas. She was honored with nominations an additional four times for her work on Goodtime Charlie starring Joel Grey, Bob Fosse’s Dancin’, Andrew Lloyd Webber's Song and Dance, and Peter Allen’s Legs Diamond. She also received three Drama Desk Awards for Outstanding Costume Design. Willa designed costumes for over twenty Broadway shows, her final being the 1995 production of Victor, Victoria starring Julie Andrews.

Her designs for Sleeping Beauty for American Ballet Theatre premiered in 2007, when Willa was 90 years old. She won an Emmy Award for Costume Design in 1981 for the televised production of the San Francisco Ballet’s The Tempest. Willa received wide acclaim for the landmark 2005 production of Puccini’s opera Turandot that she designed for the Santa Fe Opera, in which she indulged her imagination and created a fantastical vision of the Chinese Imperial court. Toward the end of her remarkable six-decade long career designing for film, stage, ballet and opera, she was honored with numerous awards.

William Pène du Bois (1916-1993) William Sherman Pène du Bois was born in Nutley, New Jersey in 1916 into a family of artists. His father was the famed landscape and portrait painter Guy Pène du Bois, his mother was a designer of children’s clothing, and his older sister Yvonne was also a painter. The family moved to France when William was eight, and he attended the Lycée Hoche in Versailles and the Lycée de Nice in Nice, after which the family returned to Nutley. He was awarded a scholarship to the Carnegie Technical School of Architecture, but upon the sale of a book that he had written and illustrated while on vacation, he decided to forego college in pursuit of a career in books. In 1936, his first book, Elisabeth, the Ghost Cow, was published. William entered the United States Army in 1941 and worked during the War as an artist and correspondent for Yank magazine, as well as editing the camp newspaper and illustrating strategic maps. Having written and illustrated five books prior to the War, William published his sixth book, The Twenty-One Balloons, in 1947. It was a fantastic tale of a retired Willia Kim and William Pène du Bois, circa 1968, ad for Ballantyne sweaters.

mathematics teacher’s hot-air balloon journey to Krakatoa and the airborne escape when the volcano explodes. The book was honored with the 1948 Newbury Award for best children’s book by the American Library Association. His prolific output includes a series inspired by the seven deadly sins, as well as tales of adventure and mystery with anthropomorphic animals cast as the heroes. He was twice a runner-up for the Caldecott Medal, which recognizes picture books for children: Bear Party (1952) and Lion (1957). The New York Times Book Review named his 1971 Bear Circus one of the ten best children’s books of the year. In addition to his own works, William also illustrated books written by other authors, including works by Jules Verne, John Steinbeck, Issac Bashevis Singer, Rumer Godden and Claire Hutchet Bishop. In 1953, William was one of the founding editors, and the first art director, of influential literary magazine, The Paris Review, along with Thomas Guinzberg, Harold L. Humes, Peter Matthiessen, John P.C. Train and George Plimpton, whose 1955 book, The Rabbit’s Umbrella, featured illustrations by William. Following William’s marriage to Willa in 1955, the couple lived in New York until 1973, when William moved to France, where he lived for the rest of his life.
Guy Pène du Bois (1884-1958) Born into a cultured, sophisticated family of French origin but with roots in America dating back to 1748, Guy Pène du Bois developed an early interest in art. At the age of 14 he enrolled in William Merritt Chase’s New York School of Art. While Guy developed a painterly technique and an appreciation for realism under Chase, the arrival at the School in 1903 of a new instructor, Robert Henri, and his advice to venture out of the studio and into the city to better understand the subjects had an immediate impact on the young artist – as well as his fellow students Edward Hopper, Gifford Beal, George Bellows and Rockwell Kent. An early trip to Paris in 1905 in the company of his father, Henri Pène du Bois, a journalist and an avowed Francophile, earned him an invitation to exhibit at the Paris Salon in 1905. The tragic death of his father in 1906 on board ship for their return home to America forced Guy to turn to art criticism to help support his family. He began writing for the New York American, his father’s former employer, and continued to write as well as paint for the rest of his life, eventually publishing monographs on the work of John Sloan, William Glackens, Edward Hopper and Ernest Lawson. He was considered an astute critic. In 1911, Guy married Florence “Floy” Sherman Duncan; the couple welcomed a daughter, Yvonne, in 1913 and their son, William, three years later. Guy’s dual career, with his success as a painter enhancing his insight as a critic, led not only to his inclusion in the 1913 Armory show, but also to his publicizing the landmark exhibition in a special issue of Arts and Decoration magazine, which he edited. The same year, Kraushaar Galleries began to represent his work, and continued to do so until the death of John Kraushaar, his longtime friend and dealer, in 1946. Guy took to heart Henri’s advice, however the subjects he favored were not generally those of the Ash Can School. As a rule, they were generally urban, but ran the gamut from city toughs to politicos, young flappers to the affluent at play. The artist himself called them “symbols of sophistication.” They are studies of manners, as keen and acute as those of William Hogarth, at times caustic and revealing the pomposity and foibles of modern society. By 1920, Guy had achieved the style for which he is best known: flattened and abstracted forms with smooth, volumetric contours rendered with imperceptible brushstrokes, and scenes informed by a satirical sensibility. Duncan Phillips praised him as "an irrepressible mocker of human absurdity and a clever satirist of types familiar to our modern world." He also praised his “flair for good painting.” Guy became known as a colorist; his use of rose madder was unusual. In his honor students created The Rose Madder Club, which may have inspired the title of one of Guy’s lighthearted compositions

generosity of John Kraushaar), the period was a productive one, and for the first time landscape began to play a part in his compositions. Subjects were shown at the race track and in the countryside. When Kraushaar could no longer continue to subsidize his stay, the artist returned to America with his family. Paintings of Yvonne and William, the artist’s children, constitute an important part of his oeuvre through these years. For the rest of his life, Guy continued to teach, write and paint, even participating in WPA projects during the Depression years. But it is his early pictures, those of the 1920s and early 1930s, for which he is best remembered. Edward Alden Jewell, art critic for The New York Times eloquently summarized his work: “It is pretty safe to call him a master and to add that there isn’t a better artist working hereabout today. His draughtsmanship, to put it coldly, commands instant and unlimited respect. His line is pure and vigorous. Color can and not infrequently does attain truly remarkable intensity of tone and subtlety of harmonious relationship. Add to these qualifications an almost unerring sense of composition and one has perhaps sufficiently justified the word master as applied to Guy Pène du Bois.”
from 1934 [Collection Westmoreland Museum of American Art]. In 1924, in order to devote himself to painting, Guy brought his young family to France.

344 Rare Classical Mahogany Upholstered Armchair From the United States House of Representatives, Washington DC By Thomas Constantine & Company circa 1819 and bearing the firm’s paper label With rectangular back and seat and shaped arms, raised on turned front legs and square back legs with box stretchers and brass casters, bears museum accession no. 48.364. This humble-appearing armchair is from an important set of approximately one hundred ninety chairs commissioned for the United States House of Representatives 1818-1819. The capital building had been burned by the British in the war of 1812, with British troops using the furniture as firewood. According to Thurlow, “When the senators and representatives returned to Washington for the sixteenth Congress, the replacements (armchairs and desks) that awaited them representated two of the most extensive furniture commissions in early 19th century America. The Houses commission specificially stated that the chairs were to be “made out of the best St. Domingo mahogany, well seasoned, strong neat and plain, without any superfluous ornament”. The commission was looking for top quality and workmanship, with simplicity of design. In the 1820’s and 30’s, local cabinetmakers in Washington added the stretchers as supports for woven webbing to form a hat rack. The chair offered here retains this feature. In 1837, after many years of debate and discussion, the House adopted a rule which stated “Every member shall remain uncovered during the sessions of the House”. Constantine was subsequently awarded the contract for the Senate furnishings, which were much more expensive and based on a design from Thomas Hope’s Household Furniture and Interior Decoration (London, 1807). Today only five other House chairs are known and listed by Thurlow. Literature: Elizabeth Feld, Stuart P.

CONDITIONS OF SALE 1. BINDING TERMS The lots listed in this catalogue will be offered by Doyle New York as owner or as agent for consignor subject to the following terms and conditions. Where Doyle is agent, the contract is between seller and buyer. The following Conditions of Sale and Terms of Guarantee constitute the entire agreement with the purchaser relative to the property listed in this catalogue. By bidding at auction you agree to be bound by these terms:
2. AS IS All lots are sold “AS IS” and without recourse and neither Doyle New York nor its consignor makes any warranties or representations, express or implied, with respect to such lots, except for the limited warranties expressly stated in the Terms of Guarantee section of this catalogue. Prospective buyers are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the auction takes place, to determine its condition, size, and whether or not it has been repaired or restored. Except as otherwise expressly and specifically provided in the Terms of Guarantee, neither Doyle New York nor its consignor makes any express or implied warranty or representation of any kind or nature with respect to merchantability, fitness for purpose, correctness of the catalogue or other description of the physical condition, size, quality, rarity, importance, medium, material, genuineness, attribution, provenance, period, culture, source, origin, exhibitions, literature or historical significance of any lot sold. The absence of any reference to the condition of a lot does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of aging; nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. References in the catalogue entry or the condition report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The Terms of Guarantee are controlling, and no statement, whether written or oral, and whether made in this catalogue, an advertisement, a bill of sale, a salesroom posting or announcement, the remarks of an auctioneer, or otherwise, shall be deemed to create any warranty, representation or assumption of liability. All statements by Doyle New York in the catalogue entry for the property or in the condition report, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, are statements of opinion and are not to be relied on as statements of fact. Except as stated in the Terms of Guarantee, neither Doyle New York nor the seller is responsible in any way for errors or omissions in the catalogue or any supplemental material. Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the property and the matters referred to in the catalogue entry. Doyle New York and its consignor make no warranty or representation, express or implied, that the purchaser will acquire any copyright or reproduction rights to any lot sold. Doyle New York expressly reserves the right to reproduce any image of the lots sold in this catalogue.
The copyright in all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for Doyle New York relating to a lot, including the contents of this catalogue, is, and shall remain at all times, the property of Doyle New York and shall not be used by the buyer, nor by anyone else, without our prior written consent.
3. WITHDRAWAL Doyle New York reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time prior to the commencement of bidding for such lot and shall have no liability whatsoever for such withdrawal.
4. RESERVES If the auctioneer decides that any opening bid is below the value of the lot offered, the auctioneer may reject that bid and withdraw the lot from sale; and if, having acknowledged an opening bid, he decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he may reject that advance. Unless otherwise indicated, all lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which such lot will not be sold. No reserve will exceed the low estimate of the lot. Reserves are agreed upon with the consignor or, in the absence thereof, in the absolute discretion of Doyle New York. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalogue. Lots marked C preceding the estimate are consigned and reserved. Those marked • are reserved property in which Doyle New York has an interest. Doyle New York on occasion makes loans or advances funds to consignors. The auctioneer may implement the reserve by opening 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 noted in the catalogue or by an announcement at the auction, Doyle New York acts as agent on behalf of the seller and does not permit the seller to bid on his or her own property.
5. ESTIMATES Each lot in the catalogue is given a low and high estimate representing that range which, in the opinion of Doyle New York, represents a fair and probable auction value. When possible, the estimate is based on previous auction records of comparable property, condition, rarity, quality and provenances. The estimates are often determined several months before a sale and are therefore subject to change upon further research of the property, or to reflect market conditions or currency fluctuations. Estimates are subject to revision. Actual prices realized for items can fall below or above this range. An estimate of 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. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium. Where “Estimate on Request” appears, please contact the Specialist Department for further information.
6. BIDDING Doyle New York reserves the right, at our complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any auction and to reject any bid, as well as the right to refuse to acknowledge any bidder. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. The auctioneer has the right at his absolute and sole discretion to advance the bidding in such a manner as he may decide, to withdraw or divide any lot, and to combine any two or more lots. In the event of error or dispute between bidders, or in the event of doubt on our part as to the validity of any bid, whether during or after the sale, the auctioneer has final discretion to determine the successful bidder, to continue the bidding, to cancel the sale, or to reoffer and resell the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Doyle New York sale record shall be conclusive.
7. PURCHASER’S RESPONSIBILITY Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer to the highest acknowledged bidder, subject to the conditions of sale set forth herein. Such bidder there upon assumes full risk and responsibility there for (including, without limitation, liability for or damage to frames and glass covering prints, paintings or other works). Although in our discretion we will execute orders or absentee bids or accept telephone bids as a convenience to clients who are not present at auctions, we are not responsible for any errors or omissions in connection therewith. When making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price as follows, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with Doyle New York before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Doyle New York, and that Doyle New York will look only to the principal for payment: The total purchase price to be paid by purchaser is the amount of the successful bid price plus a premium of 25% on the first $250,000 of the hammer price, 20% on the portion of the hammer price from $250,001 through $3,000,000, and 12% on that portion of the hammer price exceeding $3,000,000. Payment of each lot shall be made as follows: An additional fee will be charged on any purchase made through live online bidding. The provider of our live online bidding service (Invaluable) charges a fee of five percent (5%) on the final hammer price of successful bids placed on their web site (Invaluable.com) and four percent (4%) of the final hammer price of successful bids using BidLive! on our web site (Doyle.com). The purchaser is responsible for paying 100% of this fee, the amount of which is determined by which site is used for their purchases. A cash deposit of not less than 25% of the purchase price (unless the whole purchase price is required at the sole discretion of Doyle New York) will be paid on the day of the auction. Deposits shall apply to all purchases made at this sale and not to any one particular lot.

TERMS OF GUARANTEE Doyle New York warrants the authenticity of authorship of each lot contained in this catalogue solely and expressly subject to the terms and conditions set forth below.
1. DEFINITION OF AUTHORSHIP “Authorship” is defined as the artist, artisan, workshop, designer, school, period, culture, or source of origin, as applicable and indicated in the description of the lot. The warranted information appears in bold print immediately following the individual lot number; no other language in the catalogue is warranted, including any supplemental material which appears below the bold print headings. Doyle New York is not responsible for any errors or omissions in any material, which appears below the bold print headings. The description of authorship in this catalogue may be amended by a supplement to the catalogue, or by notices or announcements at the time and place of the auction sale. This catalogue may contain one or more glossaries explaining the terminology used in the catalogue. All terminology used in this catalogue, including the contents of the glossaries, are merely qualified statements or opinions and are not intended or made as warranted statements or representations under these Terms of Guarantee. Doyle New York makes no warranties whatsoever, express or implied, with respect to any material in the catalogue, except as set forth in bold print headings following individual lot numbers in this catalogue and subject to the exclusions set forth below.
2. COVERAGE UNDER THE GUARANTEE Subject to the exclusions set forth below in paragraphs 5 and 6, Doyle New York warrants the authorship (as that term is defined above) of each lot in this catalogue for a period of five years from the date of the sale of the lot. The guarantee is made only to the original purchaser of record at the auction, and only the registered bidder for the lot at the auction will be considered as the original purchaser. The buyer must give written notice of claim within five years from the date of the auction. Doyle New York may require, at its option, to have the purchaser obtain at the purchaser’s expense the opinion of two recognized experts (approved by Doyle New York) in the field relating to the item in question, before Doyle New York determines whether to rescind a sale under the above warranty. Upon request, Doyle New York will provide the purchaser with the names of acceptable experts.
3. NON-ASSIGNABILITY The benefits of this warranty are not assignable and shall be applicable only to the original purchaser of record (i.e., the registered bidder) and not to any subsequent owners (including, without limitation, donees, heirs, successors, beneficiaries or assigns) who have, or may acquire, an interest in any purchased property. The original buyer must have remained the owner of the lot without disposing of any interest in it to any third party.
4. SOLE REMEDY The purchaser agrees that in the case of a breach of warranty under these Terms of Guarantee, he shall have no remedy other than rescission of the sale and the refund of the original purchase price paid. The original purchase price paid is defined as the amount of the successful bid price, plus the buyer’s premium. No rescission and refund will be made unless the item is returned to Doyle New York at 175 East 87th Street, New York, NY 10128, in the same condition as at the time of sale. The remedy of rescission and refund is exclusive and the purchaser waives any other remedy which may be otherwise available in law or equity. Doyle New York shall not be liable for any special, consequential or incidental damages incurred or claimed including, without limitation, loss of profits or for interest.
5. EXCLUSIONS This warranty does not apply to: i. authorship of any paintings, drawings or sculpture created prior to 1870, unless the lot is determined to be a counterfeit which has a value at the date of the claim for rescission which is materially less than the purchase price paid for the lot; or ii. any catalogue description where it was specifically mentioned that there is a conflict of specialist opinion on the authorship of a lot; or iii. authorship which on the date of sale was in accordance with the then generally accepted opinion of scholars and specialists, despite the subsequent discovery of new information, whether historical or physical, concerning the artist or craftsman, his students, school, workshop or followers; or iv. the identification of periods or dates of execution which may be proven inaccurate by means of scientific processes not generally accepted for use until after publication of the catalogue, or which were unreasonably expensive or impractical to use at the time of publication of the catalogue. The term counterfeit is defined as a modern fake or forgery, made less than fifty years ago, and made with the intent to deceive. The authenticity of signatures, monograms, initials or other similar indications of authorship is expressly excluded as a controlling factor in determining whether a work is a counterfeit under the meaning of this Terms of Warranty.
6. LIMITED WARRANTY As stated in paragraph 2 of the Conditions of Sale, neither Doyle New York nor its consignor makes any express or implied representations or warranties whatsoever concerning any property in the catalogue, including without limitation, any warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, except as specifically and expressly provided in these Terms of Guarantee.

INFORMATION ON SALES AND USE TAX RELATED TO PURCHASES AT AUCTION To better assist our clients, we have prepared the following information on Sales and Use Tax related to property purchased at auction.
WHY DOYLE NEW YORK COLLECTS SALES TAX Virtually all State Sales Tax Laws require a corporation to register with the State’s Tax Authorities and collect and remit sales tax if the corporation maintains a presence within the state, such as offices. In the states that impose sales tax, Tax Laws require an auction house, with a presence in the state, to register as a sales tax collector, and remit sales taxcollected to the state. New York sales tax is charged on the hammer price, buyer’s premium and any other applicable charges on any property picked up or delivered in New York, regardless of the state or country in which the purchaser resides or does business.
WHERE DOYLE NEW YORK COLLECTS SALES TAX Doyle New York is currently registered to collect sales tax in the following states: New York and the District of Columbia. For any property collected or received by the purchaser in New York City, such property is subject to sales tax at the existing New York State and City rate of 8.875%.
WHERE DOYLE NEW YORK IS NOT REQUIRED TO COLLECT SALES TAX Doyle New York is not required to collect sales tax on property delivered to states other than those listed above. If the property is delivered to a state where Doyle New York is not required to collect sales tax, it is the responsibility of the purchaser to self-assess any sales or use tax and remit it to taxing authorities in that state. Doyle New York is not required to collect sales tax for property delivered to the purchaser outside of the United States.
RESTORATION AND OTHER SERVICES Regardless of where the property is subsequently transported, if any framing or restoration services are performed in New York, it is considered to be a delivery of the property to the purchaser in New York, and Doyle New York will be required to collect the 8.875% New York sales tax.
CERTAIN EXEMPTIONS Most states that impose sales taxes allow for specified exemptions to the tax. For example, a registered re-seller such as a registered art dealer may purchase without incurring a tax liability, and Doyle New York is not required to collect sales tax from such re-seller. The art dealer, when re-selling the property, may be required to charge sales tax to its client, or the client may be required to self-assess sales or use tax upon acquiring the property. If a not-for-profit or charitable organization is selling property through Doyle New York, it may be sold as a tax exempted purchase. The not-for-profit seller must be registered with the New York Department of Taxation and Finance as an exempt organization and the property must be picked up or delivered in New York. However, a compensating use tax is due from the buyer if any such lot is shipped to any of the states where Doyle New York maintains offices. It is the buyer’s responsibility to ascertain and pay all taxes due. Buyers claiming exemption from sales tax must have the appropriate documentation on file with Doyle New York prior to the release of the property.
LOCAL TAX ADVISORS As sales tax laws vary from state to state, Doyle New York recommends that clients with questions regarding the application of sales or use taxes to property purchased at auction seek tax advice form their local tax advisors.
If the property is delivered into any of the states in which Doyle New York is registered, Doyle New York is required by law to collect and remit the appropriate sales tax in effect in the state where the property is delivered. Property collected from Doyle New York premises by common carriers on behalf of the purchaser for delivery to the purchaser at his address outside of New York is not subject to New York Sales Tax. If it is delivered by the common carrier to any of the states where Doyle New York is required to collect sales tax, applicable tax will be added to the purchase price.

BUYING AT DOYLE Since 1963, Doyle New York has built a worldwide reputation for expertise, integrity and service. In our New York salesrooms, we hold approximately forty auctions annually featuring fine art, jewelry, furniture, decorative arts, books, prints, couture and a variety of other categories. Our global audience of buyers and sellers know the quality of our sales and appreciate our standard of service. If you are new to the auction process, please take a moment to review the following information. The following will help in understanding the auction buying process. All bidders should read the Conditions of Sale and Terms of Guarantee in this catalogue, as well as the Glossary or any other notices. By bidding at auction, bidders are bound by the Conditions of Sale and Terms of Guarantee, as amended by oral announcements or posted notices, which together form the sale contract between the successful bidder (purchaser), Doyle New York and the seller (consignor) of the lot.
BEFORE YOU BID Doyle New York produces both printed and Internet auction catalogues that contain descriptions of the property being offered and the presale estimates and are available prior to the sale date. Our free Internet catalogues, available at Doyle.com, also provide illustrations, direct communication with our specialists, and the ability to leave online absentee bids and track lots. The catalogues will help familiarize you with property being offered at the designated auction. In addition, Doyle.com offers a free Internet Personal Shopper that allows collectors to enter keywords of objects they are seeking. As each Internet auction catalogue is posted online, the collector is notified by email of any matches. A prospective buyer must complete and sign a registration form and provide identification before bidding. We may require the production of bank or other financial references. PROVENANCE In certain circumstances, Doyle New York may print in the catalogue the history of ownership of a work of art if such information contributes to scholarship or is otherwise well known and assists in distinguishing the work of art. However, the identity of the seller or previous owners may not be disclosed for a variety of reasons. For example, such information may be excluded to accommodate a seller’s request for confidentiality or because the identity of prior owners is unknown given the age of the work of art. SPECIALIST’S ADVICE Prospective bidders may be interested in specific information not included in the catalogue description of a lot. For additional information please contact either a Doyle New York specialist or Doyle New York’s Client Services Department. You may also request a condition report from the specialist in charge.
VI
BIDDING AT AUCTION Auctions are open to the public without any admission fee or obligation to bid. Pre-auction viewings are open to the public free of charge. Doyle New York’s specialists are available to give advice and condition reports at viewings or by appointment. The auctioneer introduces the objects for sale - known as “lots” in numerical order as listed in the catalogue. The auctioneer accepts bids from those present in the salesroom, from telephone bidders, from Internet bidders or by absentee written bids left with Doyle New York in advance of the auction. LIVE BIDDING The most exciting way to participate at auction is the traditional method of bidding live in the salesroom with an auction paddle. Buyers who would like to bid may register for a paddle on the day of the sale upon entering the salesroom at least 30 minutes before the sale. The paddle is numbered so as to identify you to the auctioneer. To register, you will need a form of identification such as a driver’s license or credit card. If you are a first-time bidder, you will also be asked for your address, phone number and signature and a bank reference in order to create your account. To avoid any delay in the release of purchases, please pre-arrange check or credit approval through Doyle New York’s Credit Department at 212-427-4141 ext. 205. If you are bidding for someone else, you will need to provide a letter from that person authorizing you to bid on that person’s behalf. Issuance of a bid paddle is in Doyle New York’s sole discretion. Once the first bid has been placed, the auctioneer asks for higher bids, in increments determined by the auctioneer. To place your bid, simply raise your paddle until the auctioneer acknowledges you. As a courtesy to bidders, a currency board may be operated. It displays the lot number and current bid in both U.S. dollars and foreign currency. Exchange rates are approximations based on recent exchange rate information and should not be relied upon as a precise invoice amount. Doyle New York assumes no responsibility for any error or omission in foreign or United States currency amounts shown. TELEPHONE BIDDING Clients unable to attend the sale may still participate live by bidding on the telephone with a trained staff member on the auction floor. The Telephone Bid Forms are available on our Web site, in our printed catalogue, and through our Client Services Department. Please contact the Bid Department prior to the sale to make arrangements or to answer any questions you may have. Telephone bids are accepted only at Doyle New York’s discretion and at the caller’s risk. Calls may also be recorded at Doyle New York’s discretion. By bidding on the telephone, prospective buyers consent thereto. Telephone bids cannot be accepted for lot estimated below $1,000. Arrangements must be confirmed with the Bid Department at least 24 hours prior to the auction at 212-427-4141 ext. 242. Arrangements to bid in languages other than English must be made well in advance of the sale date. Doyle New York offers all absentee and telephone bidding services as a convenience to our clients but will not be responsible for errors or failures to execute bids.
ABSENTEE BIDDING For buyers unable to participate live in the salesroom or on the telephone, Doyle offers the option of Absentee Bids. Absentee Bids work exactly as if the bidder were in the salesroom bidding up to a predetermined price limit, except that the price limit is given confidentially to Doyle ahead of time. Absentee Bid Forms are available on our Web site, in our printed catalogues, and through our Client Services Department. Return the completed Absentee Bid Form to Doyle New York either by mail or by fax. When the lot that you are interested in comes up for sale, a Doyle New York representative will execute the bid on your behalf, making every effort to purchase the item for as little as possible and never exceeding your limit. The auctioneer may execute absentee bids directly from the rostrum, identifying these as “absentee bids,” “book bids,” or “order bids.” This service is free and confidential. For detailed instructions and information, please see the Doyle New York Absentee Bid Form at the back of this catalogue or on our Web site. In the event that identical bids are submitted, the earliest will take precedence. INTERNET ABSENTEE BIDS Buyers may also conveniently leave bids on our Web site through our Internet catalogues.

BUYING AT DOYLE CONTINUED SUCCESSFUL BIDS Successful absentee bidders will be notified after the sale. Absentee bidders will receive a list of sale results if they enclose a stamped self-addressed envelope with their Absentee Bid Form. Printed lists of auction prices are available immediately after the sale on our Web site and at our galleries. While invoices are sent out by mail after the auction, we do not accept responsibility for notifying you of the result of your bids. Buyers are requested to contact us by telephone or in person as soon as possible after the sale to obtain details of the outcome of their bids to avoid incurring unnecessary storage charges.
AFTER THE AUCTION If your bid is successful, you can go directly to Purchaser Accounting to make payment arrangements. Otherwise, your invoice will be mailed to you. The final price is determined by adding the buyer’s premium to the hammer price on a per-lot basis. Sales tax, where applicable, will be charged on the entire amount. Payment is due in full immediately after the sale. However, under certain circumstances, and generally with the seller’s agreement, Doyle New York may offer buyers it deems creditworthy the option of an extended payment plan. Credit terms should be arranged prior to the sale. Please contact the Credit Department for information on credit arrangements for a particular lot. METHODS OF PAYMENT Accepted forms of payment include bank wire transfers, cash (in US currency up to $5,000), traveler’s check (in US currency up to $5,000), money orders (in US currency up to $5,000), or personal check made payable in US dollars drawn on a US bank, unless other arrangements are made with Purchaser Accounts. It is Doyle New York’s policy to request any new clients or purchasers preferring to make a cash payment to provide: verification of identity (by providing some form of government issued identification containing a photograph, such as a passport, identity card, or driver’s license), confirmation of permanent address and identification of the source of the funds. Invoices greater than $5,000 require payment by certified check, bank check or wire transfer. Credit cards are not accepted for payment of auction purchases.
To pay for a purchase by check, please see our cashier and fill out a Check Acceptance Account form. Until approved, you will not be permitted to remove purchases before the check has cleared. To avoid delivery delays, prospective buyers are encouraged to supply bank or other suitable references before the auction. Check acceptance privileges are reviewed from time to time by Doyle New York and may be granted or withdrawn at our sole discretion. Checks should be made payable to Doyle New York. Note that checks drawn on foreign banks may be accepted with the approval of the Credit Department, may not be accepted for values under $500, and that there is a $100 minimum collection charge on checks drawn on foreign banks located outside the U.S. Certified checks, banker’s drafts and cashier’s checks are accepted at Doyle New York’s discretion provided they are issued by a reputable financial institution governed by anti-money laundering laws. Instruments not meeting these requirements will be treatedas “cash equivalents” and subject to theconstraints noted above. Please direct inquiries regarding wire transfer or ACH credit to Steven L. Kuzio, 212.427.4141 ext. 202, steven.kuzio@doyle.com BUYER’S PREMIUM The invoice will include the successful hammer price of the item and the buyer’s premium. Doyle New York charges a premium to the buyer on the final bid price of each lot sold at the following rates: 25% on the first $250,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion of the hammer price from $250,001 through $3,000,000, and 12% thereafter. Applicable sales tax will also be added to the final total. New York Sales tax is charged on the hammer price, buyer’s premium and any other applicable charges on any property picked up or delivered in New York State, regardless of the state or country in which the purchaser resides or does business. Please refer to “Information on Sales and Use Tax Related to Purchases at Auction” in the back of the catalogue. All sales are final and subject to the Conditions of Sale. PICK-UPS Once your payment has been cleared, property may be released. Unless otherwise agreed by Doyle New York, auction purchases should be paid for and picked up at Doyle New York within 48 hours of the auction. Items left beyond the 48 hours may be subject to a storage fee (see below). Please note that the hours for removal of property are Monday through Friday from 8:15am until 4:45pm, except on auction days during which only purchases made that day may be picked up. As a courtesy to purchasers who come to Doyle New York to pick up property, Doyle New York will assist in the packing of lots, although Doyle New York may, in the case of fragile articles, choose not to pack or otherwise handle a purchase. Doyle New York will not be responsible or liable for damage to glass covering paintings, drawings or other works, or damage to frames, regardless of cause.
STORAGE FEES Pursuant to section 8 of our Conditions of Sale, we request that successful buyers collect their property within two business days following the sale. Should the property (except jewelry, coins, stamps or as announced by the auctioneer) remain on our premises for more than 31 days following a sale it will be transferred to an independent warehouse on the buyer’s behalf at the purchaser’s risk and subject to storage charges at the purchaser’s expense. As transferred property will no longer be in Doyle New York’s custody or care, Doyle New York will not be able to assist you with pick-up or shipping arrangements. To avoid storage charges, please arrange for the removal of your purchases as soon as possible. Please Note: Transfer to a Storage facility of uncollected purchases past the 31-day grace period will constitute delivery of the property to the buyer in New York State. As a result, buyer will be liable to pay New York State Sales Tax if not tax-exempt. The charges are payable to an outside Storage Company and therefore cannot be waived by Doyle New York. We encourage all buyers to collect purchased property within two business days following the sale. In order to collect property from Yorkville Van and Storage, buyers must present a copy of a paid invoice bearing a Yorkville warehouse release stamp. This warehouse release stamp can only be obtained from the cashier at Doyle New York’s main reception desk located at 175 East 87th St in Manhattan. SHIPPING Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. Upon request, our Client Services Department will provide a list of shippers who deliver to destinations within the United States and overseas. Kindly disregard the sales tax if an I.C.C. licensed shipper will ship your purchases anywhere outside the state of New York or the District of Columbia. ENDANGERED SPECIES Certain property sold at auction, for example, items made of or incorporating plant or animal materials such as coral, crocodile, ivory, whalebone, tortoise shell, mother-of-pearl, etc., irrespective of age or value, may require a license or certificate prior to exportation and additional licenses or certificates upon importation to another country. Doyle New York suggests that buyers check on their government wildlife import requirements prior to placing a bid. Although licenses can be obtained to export some types of endangered species, other types may not be exported at all, and other types may not be resold in the United States.

SELLING AT DOYLE At Doyle New York, we commit our expertise, experience, market knowledge and global outreach to every sale. The numerous auction records set in our salesrooms are testimony to the advantages of selling property at Doyle. To make the auction process as easy and convenient as possible, our team of dedicated professionals will guide you through the entire appraisal and auction procedure. As part of our commitment to providing comprehensive auction services to collectors, institutions and estates, Doyle New York offers several options to those seeking to sell their property: consignment of the objects to auction at Doyle, outright sale of the objects to Doyle, a combination of both, or referrals to other organizations.
OBTAINING AN APPRAISAL The first step in selling property at auction is to obtain a free informal appraisal of the item. The appraisal includes an estimated value, which is the specialist’s best judgement as to what the object will sell for at auction. The figure is based upon the specialist’s expertise and knowledge of what similar items are fetching in the current auction market. There are various ways to obtain appraisals. Information and appointments to view property in your home or in the gallery can be arranged through our Scheduling Department, an appropriate Specialist Department, or a Doyle New York Regional Representative. Once your property has been evaluated, Doyle New York representatives can then help you determine how to proceed with the auction process. They will provide information regarding sellers’ commission rates and other charges, auction timetable, shipping and any other further services you may require. SUBMITTING PHOTOGRAPHS We welcome photographs of property to evaluate for possible auction if the property is not portable, or if you are not able to visit our galleries. If you have a large collection, are presentative selection of photographs is acceptable. Please bring in the photographs or email photos of your objects to the Scheduling Department. You may also mail photographs to the Scheduling Department, or call them at 212-427-4141, ext. 260, to discuss your property and perhaps arrange an appointment with a specialist. Please be sure to include the dimensions, artist’s signature or maker’s mark, medium, physical condition, and any other relevant information. Our specialists will provide a free preliminary auction estimate subject to a final estimate upon first hand inspection.
VIII
REGIONAL APPRAISAL DAYS Doyle New York’s Regional Representatives host free appraisal days on a regular basis throughout Connecticut, the metropolitan Washington, DC area, as well as in other areas throughout the United States. These popular events provide ease and convenience for collectors outside of New York who wish to sell their property at Doyle. At these events, we accept property for upcoming auctions in our New York salesrooms through both consignment and outright purchase.
SELLING YOUR PROPERTY CONSIGNING TO AUCTION In consigning property to auction, the seller retains ownership until the successful sale of the item at auction. When property is consigned to Doyle for auction, we devote the expertise of our specialists and professional staff to achieving outstanding prices at auction. THE CONSIGNMENT CONTRACT When you consign property to Doyle New York you will receive two copies of our Consignment Agreement, the legal document delineating the terms of sale. One copy should be initialed, signed and returned; the other kept for your records. Once the property is received in our gallery, you will be sent a Contract Schedule listing the property, the planned sale dates, the estimated price ranges, and the reserves will be listed, along with the agreed upon seller’s commission and other related fees. RESERVE PRICE Before an item is offered at auction, the consignor and Doyle New York may agree on a reserve price, a confidential minimum selling price. Unless a specific reserve is arranged, a discretionary reserve is fixed at fifty percent of the low estimate. If the consignor designates a reserve on a lot, and it remains unsold, there will be a buy-in fee charged on the reserve price. OUTRIGHT SALE TO DOYLE Outright purchase of property by Doyle allows the seller the advantage and convenience of immediate payment. Many sellers prefer this method of sale rather than consigning their property to auction and awaiting payment after the successful sale of the items. For further information please contact our Scheduling Department.
AFTER THE AUCTION RESULTS OF SALE You may track realized prices of your consigned property in real time and view all sales results online at Doyle.com. A preliminary settlement statement itemizing the hammer prices, commissions and fees is mailed to the consignor after the auction. You may also call us at 212-427-2730 for prices realized.
PAYMENT TO CONSIGNORS Payment to consignors is mailed five weeks after the date of the sale, together with a final settlement statement. The amount of payment is the hammer price of each lot successfully sold, less the commission and any other fees.
ESTATE AND APPRAISAL SERVICES For forty years, Doyle New York’s Appraisal and Auction Services Department has worked with museums, corporate collections, banks and law firms, trust and estate professionals, heirs, and private clients across the nation providing our comprehensive appraisal and auction services. Our thorough, well-researched fair market appraisals have earned Doyle a solid reputation for professionalism, integrity and service throughout the United States. Doyle New York offers a full range of expert appraisal services, specializing in providing timely formal appraisals for estate tax and probate purposes. Our expert team of specialists and our professional staff bring years of experience to each appraisal. Full color digital photographs may be included in the appraisal in order to make each object easily identifiable. Depending on the location, we are happy to provide, at no charge, a preliminary walk-through examination to determine approximate costs and special needs. Appraisal fees are based on the scope of the property with travel expenses additional. Doyle New York will prepare a customized proposal tailored to the specific property under consideration for auction, including a commission and fee structure developed to maximize returns to consignors. We may also make an outright purchase offer on individual items or entire estates. As part of our focus on comprehensive estate liquidation, we offer our unique “Broomclean Service” – our own trucks and crew will transport the fine property to Doyle, remove remaining items, and leave the premises “broomclean.”
