PROPERTY FROM THE DESCENDANTS OF GRAND DUKE GEORGE MIKHAILOVICH Lots 103 – 134

Grand Duke George Mikhailovich (1863-1919) was the third son of Grand Duke Michael Nikolaevich (1832-1909) and the grandson of Emperor Nicholas I of Russia (1796-1855). He was married to Princess Marie Georgievna (1876-1940), née Princess Maria of Greece and Denmark, daughter of King George I (1845-1913), and Queen Olga (1851-1926), née Grand Duchess Olga Konstantinovna of Russia. The couple wed in 1900 and had two daughters, Princess Nina Georgievna (1901-1974) and Princess Xenia Georgievna (1903-1965).

As with so many members of the Russian Imperial Family and the aristocracy, the lives of Grand Duke George Mikhailovich and his family were torn apart by the Russian Revolution. In the summer of 1914, Grand Duchess Marie and the two princesses left Russia for England. The outbreak of World War I prevented them from returning home safely, and they were forced to settle in Harrogate and London. Grand Duchess Marie established hospitals in Harrogate which cared for wounded soldiers over the course of the next five years. Neither she nor the princesses would ever return to Russia.

The grand duke and his family initially lived in St. Petersburg before settling in 1907 at Kharaks, their newly built estate in the Crimea. Located close to the palace of Emperor Nicholas II at Livadia and to Ai Todor, the palace of Grand Duke Alexander Mikhailovich and Grand Duchess Xenia Alexandrovna, Kharaks played host to numerous members of the imperial family and St. Petersburg society. Grand Duchess Marie recalled in her memoirs that Nicholas II “came two or three times a week, when living at Livadia, to dine with us. The Empress sometimes came too…” (Grand Duchess George, A Romanov Diary: The Autobiography of H.I. & R.H. Grand Duchess George, G.N. Tantzos and M.A. Eilers, ed., New York, 1988, p. 133). Photographs of Kharaks depict a comfortable family home where numerous objects, such as pieces by Fabergé and icons, are displayed in many of the rooms.

In June of 1917, as the Revolution intensified, Grand Duke George was granted permission to travel to Finland. He remained there until April of 1918, when he was arrested and sent to Petrograd, then exiled to Vologda. In July, he was returned to Petrograd and imprisoned, along with his brother Grand Duke Nicholas Mikhailovich and their cousin Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich. In January 1919, the three grand dukes were executed by a Bolshevik firing squad.

Many of the family’s belongings were left behind at Kharaks. From 1918 to 1919, the Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna, who had fled south for her safety, lived at Kharaks. In April 1919, the HMS Marlborough, under orders of the British Royal Navy, arrived in the Crimea to evacuate the Dowager Empress and other members of the Russian Imperial Family who were staying in the area. Some of the family’s treasured belongings were removed, brought on board the ship, and subsequently delivered to Grand Duchess Marie in England.

121 Grand Duke George Mikhailovich (1863-1919): Important Group of Four World War I Photograph Albums Early 20th Century Enclosing approximately 1,000 photographs in four albums, depicting Grand Duke George Mikhailovich with family and in various locations during World War I, including throughout the Russian Empire, at the Stavka in Mogilev, the Far East (China, Korea), and on a diplomatic mission to Japan in 1915-1916; included in the photographs are Emperor Nicholas II, Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich, Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich, Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolaevich, General Brusilov, General Tatishchev, and various Japanese dignitaries. Provenance: Grand Duke George Mikhailovich (1863-1919) and Grand Duchess Marie Georgievna (1876-1940) Princess Nina Georgievna Chavchavadze (1901-1974) Prince David Pavlovich Chavchavadze (1924-2014) By descent to the present owner Grand Duke George Mikhailovich, who had a limited military career due to injury, entered the army in World War I as a lieutenant general. By 1915, he was appointed aide-de-camp to the commander in chief, and Emperor Nicholas II appointed him supervisor of operations, in which capacity he reported to the emperor on the situation at the front. In December 1915, Nicholas II sent Grand Duke George on an important diplomatic mission to Japan. From the beginning of the year, the Japanese had openly expressed a desire for an alliance with Russia, as both nations were fighting against Germany and the Central Powers. Japanese Field Marshal and former prime minister, Yamagata Aritomo, was a major advocate of the alliance. After his proposal was rebuffed by Prime Minister Okuma Shigenobu’s cabinet, Yamagata enlisted the support of Emperor Taisho to encourage a visit to Tokyo by a member of the Russian Imperial Family. Major General Nakajima Masatake, an observer to the general headquarters of the Russian army, was tasked with approaching the emperor’s surgeon, Sergei Fedorov. Masatake remarked to Fedorov that should the emperor send the grand duke to Japan, the Japanese would be duly impressed and would intensify their efforts to help Russia in the battle with Germany. Nicholas II immediately dispatched Grand Duke George to Japan ostensibly to congratulate Emperor Taisho on his formal enthronement ceremonies in November 1915. Prior to arriving in Japan, Grand Duke George visited Korea and returned to Russia at the beginning of 1916 by way of Vladivostok, inspecting the situation in the Far East on the way. In July 1916, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Sazonov and Japanese Ambassador Motono Ichiro signed a treaty in Petrograd which created a military and political alliance. The five-year alliance was to remain secret until the Bolsheviks seized power one year later and declared an end to secret treaties. The present lot, part of the personal collection of Grand Duke George Mikhailovich and never before seen in public, includes an extensive group of photographs which document the Grand Duke’s 1915 diplomatic visit to Japan.

135 Fabergé Gold-Mounted Aventurine Quartz Model of a Duckling Workmaster Henrik Wigström, St. Petersburg, 1899-1907 Realistically carved, with a white quartz beak, olivine eyes and rose gold feet. Height 2 3/4 inches (6.9 cm). Provenance: Christie’s, Geneva, May 11, 1982, lot 256 (part) Christie’s, New York, April 20, 2001, lot 63 Acquired at the above sale by the present owner Exhibited: Munich, Kunsthalle der Hypo-Kulturstiftung, Fabergé Hofjuwelier der Zaren, December 5, 1986 - February 22, 1987, No. 296. Literature: Géza von Habsburg, Fabergé Hofjuwelier der Zaren, Munich, 1986, p. 193. The present lot is nearly identical to a Fabergé model of a duckling in the Royal Collection (RCIN 40397; C. de Guitaut, Fabergé in the Royal Collection, London, 2003, p. 67). In 1907, King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra famously commissioned Fabergé to create carvings of the animals on their country estate at Sandringham in Norfolk, resulting in the most important and comprehensive collection of Fabergé hardstone animals which remains in The Royal Collection to this day. Carved from aventurine quartz with gold legs, the duckling from the Sandringham Commission was made in the workshop of Henrik Wigström in the same period as the present lot. The Royal Collection has a total of four models of ducks in aventurine quartz made in Wigström’s workshop (RCIN 40326, RCIN 40397, RCIN 40419, RCIN 40468). For another comparable model of a duckling held in the Woolf Family Collection, see Wartski, Carl Fabergé, A Private Collection (London 2012), No. 72, p. 88, and G. Habsburg, Fabergé: Imperial Craftsman and His World (London, 2000), No. 857, p. 312. Members of the Russian Imperial family purchased several hardstone models of ducks from Fabergé. In March 1899, Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna purchased a duck carved from rose chalcedony (R.R. Gafifullin, Works of the Fabergé Firm, Late XIX — Early XX Century in the Collection of the State Pavlovsk Museum, St. Petersburg, 2013, No. 2788, p. 167). In July 1906, Empress Alexandra Feodorovna purchased a hardstone duck of unidentified material (R.R. Gafifullin, op cit, No. 5091, p. 275).

136 Fabergé Agate Model of a Goose St. Petersburg, circa 1900 Realistically carved, with rose-cut diamond eyes. Height 3 1/8 inches (8 cm). Provenance: Christie’s Geneva, 11 May 1982, lot 256 (part) Christie’s, New York, April 20, 2001, lot 64 Acquired at the above sale by the present owner Exhibited: Munich, Kunsthalle der Hypo-Kulturstiftung, Fabergé Hofjuwelier der Zaren, December 5, 1986 - February 22, 1987, No. 293. Literature: Géza von Habsburg, Fabergé Hofjuwelier der Zaren, Munich, 1986, p. 193. The prototypes of Fabergé’s hardstone miniature sculptures of animals were, according to Franz Birbaum, senior master craftsman for Fabergé, Chinese and Japanese gemstone carvings (F. Birbaum, The History of the House of Fabergé, St. Petersburg, 1992, p. 42). In fact, a strong Asian current can be felt throughout Fabergé’s production, from hardstone animals and flower studies to silver. Carl Fabergé himself was an admirer and avid collector of Japanese netsuke, and the precision of detail and similarities in modeling between netsuke and Fabergé’s animals is immediately apparent. The Asian influence on Fabergé’s production of hardstone animals can be seen in the present lot. Two animals held in the Kremlin Armoury in Moscow show a similar influence: a carnelian model of a fish and a carnelian fly-shaped toilet case (T. Muntian, The World of Fabergé, Moscow, 2000, Nos. 33-34, p. 69). Further examples include a bowenite model of a sparrow (From the Collection of King George I of the Hellenes, Christie’s, London, January 24, 2007, lot 370) and a nephrite model of a dragonfly from The Woolf Family Collection (The Walters Art Museum, The Fabergé Menagerie, Baltimore, 2003, No. 116). The Russian Imperial Family were avid collectors of Fabergé’s hardstone animals, including those with Asian influences. In February 1904, Dowager Empress Maria Feodorovna purchased four models of geese from Fabergé, two carved from carnelian and two from Japanese agate (R.R. Gafifullin, Works of the Fabergé Firm, Late XIX — Early XX Century in the Collection of the State Pavlovsk Museum, St. Petersburg, 2013, Nos. 1328-1329, 1331, p. 121). In December 1902, Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna jointly purchased a Japanese goose carved from agate (R.R. Gafifullin, op cit, No. 4657, p. 255).

210 Russian Bronze Bust of Emperor Alexander I Cast by Chopin, St. Petersburg, 1868 From the Chopin foundry’s series depicting Russia’s Grand Princes, Tsars and Emperors, dedicated to the Millennium of Russia, struck with foundry mark and dated under foot. Height 10 1/4 inches (26 cm). On September 8, 1862, an official celebration was held in Novgorod to commemorate the millennium of the Russian state. In 862, the Varangians (or Rus’) established a trade settlement near Novgorod under the leadership of Rurik, a Viking chieftain, and thus became the founding dynasty of Russia. They would go on to establish Tsardom in Russia and rule until the turn of seventeenth century, eventually to be succeeded by the Romanov Dynasty. The present lot is from a series of bronze busts, formally known as “A Gallery of Bronze Busts of All the Russian Grand Princes, Tsars and Emperors,” which was sold by subscription. The first subscriber was Emperor Alexander II, and the series subsequently proved so popular that approximately two hundred copies of the original series were produced.

Literature: C. Brinton, Catalogue of Sculpture by Prince Paul Troubetzkoy, 1911. O. Wootton, Prince Paul Troubetzkoy, The Belle Epoque Captured in Bronze, London, 2008, pp. 76, 78. In 1891, Troubetzkoy, in collaboration with the painter Luigi Conconi, entered a competition for a monument to Dante Alighieri (1265-1321) in Trent. The competition was one of many for monuments to national figures to be erected in Italian cities which the artist entered. In that same year, Troubetzkoy exhibited maquettes for the monument in Trent, and a model for the monument was later exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago in February 1912 (C. Brinton, op cit, p. 7; O. Wootton op cit, p. 78). The present work appears to be related to the artist’s monument to Dante with a later date of 1896. C $8,000-12,000 See Illustration

228 Prince Paul Troubetzkoy Russian, 1866-1938 The Younger Daughter of Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, 1910 Signed Paul Troubetzkoy on the base, with Valsuani foundry mark Bronze, dark brown patina Height 20 3/4 inches (52.7 cm). Provenance: Acquired by the mother of the present owner in the 1960s. William Kissam Vanderbilt II (1878-1944), a member of the prominent American Vanderbilt family, commissioned several bronze portraits from Troubetzkoy around 1910. These included standing portraits of William and his wife Virginia (née Fair), their two daughters, and their thoroughbred horse. The works likely were executed during one of the family’s many trips to Paris, prior to Troubetzkoy’s exhibitions throughout the United States in 1911 and later and his eventual relocation to the country at the outbreak of World War I. In addition to the present standing portrait, a cast of which was exhibited in New York in 1911, Troubetzkoy also executed a portrait bust of the sitter. The plaster is preserved in the Museo del Paesaggio, Verbania, Italy. Another bronze cast of the present portrait was sold Sotheby’s, London, June 4, 2013, lot 404.

Mentmore Towers, Buckinghamshire, was built in 1852-54 for Baron Meyer de Rothschild and designed by Sir Joseph Paxton. Paxton was the head gardener to the Duke of Devonshire and designed the Great Conservatory at Chatsworth, the forerunner of Paxton’s design for the pavilion at the Great Exhibition of 1851 in London. The humor magazine Punch called Paxton’s building in Hyde Park ‘The Crystal Palace’, a name that endured. Upon Baron Meyer de Rothschild’s death in 1874, Mentmore and its art collection passed to his daughter Hannah, who in 1878 married the 5th Earl of Rosebery, British Prime Minister from 1894-96. The 6th Earl died in 1974 and the house and its contents were offered for £2 million to the nation in lieu of inheritance taxes. Unfortunately, the government refused to use money from the National Land Fund to purchase Mentmore and its contents, a decision still debated in the UK. Sotheby’s held a three-day sale at Mentmore, May 18-20, 1977, resulting in a total sale price of over £6 million. The present pair of canapés was originally part of a larger suite in the Green Drawing Room at Mentmore, comprising three fauteuils à la Reine, a large canapé, a set of four fauteuils en cabriolet and a set of six chaises en cabriolet, said to be signed Delaisement. A set by Delaisement of four virtually identical fauteuils à la reine to the suite at Mentmore was sold, Christie’s, London, Le Grand Goût - A European Private Collection, June 17, 2009, lot 44.

475 George II Irish Needlework Upholstered Walnut Wing Chair Circa 1740 The arched padded backrest, sides and seat covered in multicolored floral gros point on a red ground, raised on cabriole legs joined by a shaped flat stretcher and ending in faceted feet. Provenance: Alistair Sampson Antiques Ltd., London Irish wing armchairs are fairly rare but the present chair, with its flat stretcher and faceted feet are characteristic features of chairs from Ireland. An interesting parallel can be drawn between furniture made in Ireland and furniture made in Philadelphia, a distinction made by David Stockwell of Wilmington, Delaware, in an article in The Magazine Antiques, March 1961, p. 269, upon which Desmond FitzGerald, The Knight of Glin, elaborated in another article, ‘Irish mahogany furniture: a source for American design?’, The Magazine Antiques, April 1971, pp. 568-573. The reason for this parallel is that many Irish Quakers moved to Philadelphia in the late 17th to the mid-18th centuries and influenced furniture design in the American Colonies’ largest city. An Irish wing chair with a similar flat stretcher, originally thought to be American, is in the collection of the Henry Francis du Pont Winterthur Museum, illustrated, The Knight of Glin and James Peill, Irish Furniture, 2007, pp. 110-111, fig. 145 C Property from the Collection of Bennett and Judie Weinstock $3,000-5,000 See Illustration

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 $300,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion of the hammer price from $300,001 through $3,000,000, and 12.5% on that portion of the hammer price exceeding $3,000,000. Payment of each lot shall be made as follows: 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.

V #I

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. These bids are executed at the auction in the same fashion as an Absentee Bid. LIVE ONLINE BIDDING BidLive! with a click of your mouse. Bidders from around the world now can experience the excitement of bidding live at Doyle on their computers. MAC USERS: Please use Firefox browser (download). BidLive!, powered by Invaluable, does not support iPhone or iPad at this time. Doyle New York does not guarantee that live Internet bidding will be uninterrupted or without error, or that Internet bids will be received.


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 $300,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion of the hammer price from $300,001 through $3,000,000, and 12.5% on that portion of the hammer price exceeding $3,000,000. 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, a representative 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.

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.”
