Private Collection, Florida (acquired from the above in 1989). literature: Luisa Mortari, Bernardo Strozzi, De Luca: Rome, 1966, p. 131, fig. 9. $25,000-35,000
note: Also known as ‘Il Prete Genovese’ and ‘Il Cappuccino,’ Bernardo Strozzi was one of the leading Genoese painters of the early 17th century. Strozzi also worked in Venice, where he gained recognition as one of the leading artists of the age, with the Doge of Venice Francesco Erizzo
becoming one of his patrons, along with the Catholic Cardinal, members of the Grimani family, and the Patriarch of Venice Federico Baldissera Bartolomeo Cornaro. Strozzi’s paintings are characterized by their boldness, energetic brushwork and rich, glowing colors, though his style continued to
develop throughout his career. Beginning with a late Mannerist style and gradually maturing toward a greater sense of naturalism, Strozzi ultimately synthesizes elements of Northern painterly influences with a realistic, monumental starkness. His later works are characterized as being
30
sketchier and more luminous, often with robust forms. His subject matter included paintings of history, allegories, genre, still lifes and portraiture. The authenticity of this painting has been confirmed by Professor Craig Felton.

Dietrich II Foundation. literature: Galerie Jean Charpentier, In the Collection of Leon M. Lowenstein, exhibition catalogue, December 17, 1935, p. 32, no. 76.
note: Earning the nickname ‘Robert des Ruines’ (“Robert of Ruins”), Hubert Robert is considered amongst the most important painters of architectural ruins and capriccios (imaginary landscapes) in 18th century France. His paintings were particularly popular with French aristocracy, undoubtedly helped by his father Nicolas Robert being an upper-servant to the Marquis of ChoiseulStainville. By the 1770s, Robert had received the appointment of Draftsman and Designer of the King’s Gardens. He also designed gardens for the Marquis de Laborde and the Marquis de Girardin, and the philosopher Voltaire commissioned him to paint decorations for his theater at Ferney. Robert received a classical education at the Collège de Navarre in Paris, and later with the entourage of the Count of Stainville in Rome in 1754. Spending the next eleven years in Italy, he developed a fascination with ruins, as well as close ties with Italian artists Giovanni Battista Piranesi, Giovanni Paolo Panini, and Jean-Honoré Fragonard - each of whom would serve as a strong influence. Robert’s keen interest in ruins paintings coincided with concurrent excavations at Herculaneum and Pompeii, and the subsequent strong European fascination with antiquity. Highly prolific and much beloved as a draftsman, printmaker, and designer of gardens and furnishings for the wealthy and for royalty, Robert was even awarded prestigious lodgings in the Louvre from 1778 until 1802. With his blending of factual accuracy with fantasy, Robert maintains his standing as one of the premier painters of his day. $50,000-70,000

(127.6 x 101.9cm) provenance: The Sitter. Collection of Mrs. Edward Wise of Ryde, daughter of the Sitter. By descent in the family (until 1929). Leger Sale, sold by order of the Westhome Security Corporation, n.d. American Art Association, New York, sale of March 2, 1933, lot 82. Private Collection, Pennsylvania. $10,000-15,000
note: The presumed sitter is Henry Wilson - second son of John Wilson, a merchant in the city of London and himself a merchant with interests in Jamaica. He married Amelia, daughter of Brackley Kennett in 1786, and became Lord Mayor of London.
John Hoppner was one of the leading portrait painters of late 18th century Britain, along with Sir Joshua Reynolds - to whom his early portraits reveal an indebtedness and Thomas Gainsborough. He was also a contemporary of the young Sir Thomas Lawrence, with whom he came to develop a strong rivalry.
Hoppner entered the Royal Academy in 1775, winning a silver medal in 1778 for drawing from life, and then a gold medal - the Academy’s highest award, for historical painting in 1782. Hoppner first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1780 with a preference for landscapes, but ultimately became a
37
portraitist because it was more financially lucrative. Amongst Hoppner’s illustrious sitters were the Prince of Wales, Sir George Beaumont, the Duke of Wellington, and Sir Walter Scott.
75 GEORGE ROMNEY (british 1734-1802) “LADY MARGERY MACLEOD” Painted in 1788, oil on canvas 49 x 40 1/4 in. (124.5 x 102.2cm) provenance: Sir Hugh Lane, first husband of the Sitter. By descent in the family. Agnews Gallery, London, United Kingdom (acquired from the above in 1913). M. Knoedler & Co., New York, New York (acquired from the above in 1921). Sotheby’s, London, sale of July 13, 1966, lot 156. Private Collection, Ohio. Donated by the above in the 1990s, to benefit the not-for-profit organization Eliza Jennings. exhibited: “An Exhibition on Behalf of the Artist’s General Benevolent Institution,” Agnews Gallery, London, United Kingdom, 1913, no. 5. literature: William Fraser, The Earls of Cromartie: Their Kindred, Country, and Correspondence, Volume I, Edinburgh: 1976 (Burlington: 2004), p. cclviii. Alex Kidson, George Romney: A Complete Catalogue of His Paintings, Volume II, New Haven: 2015, no. 833, p. 379 (as untraced, illustrated). $15,000-25,000
note: The sitter (1761-1842) was the daughter of James, seventeenth Lord Forbes, married in June 1786 to John MacKenzie, Lord Macleod. The pendant portrait of John Macleod was sold at auction in 2014 (Christie’s, New York, sale of January 30, 2014, lot 282). Arguably the most fashionable portrait painter of his day, George Romney’s popularity as a painter of leading society figures was rivaled
only by Thomas Gainsborough and Sir Joshua Reynolds. His prodigious output - said to be about 1,500 portrait sittings dating from the third quarter of the 18th century - is perhaps all the more remarkable given that he had, unlike many of his contemporaries, no formal relationship with the wellestablished Royal Academy despite being invited to exhibit there. While this decision cost him important court and royal patronage, his
reputation as one of Britain’s most important 18th century painters and specifically one of the best portraitists of young women in his day - remains intact. Romney’s brushwork is characterized by its flowing rhythms and broad strokes, resulting in a fluidity of lines where the sensibilities or personality of the sitter is overshadowed by the artist’s interest in beautifying and flattering them. This is the case of the subject of the present work of Lady Margery
38
Macleod, and is also seen in the allure of Lady Sarah Young, the following lot. Romney was born in Dalton-in-Furness, Lancashire, the third of eleven children, and worked for eight years in his father’s cabinet making workshop before serving as an apprentice to the painter Christopher Steele. He began his painting career in Kendal, in North England, before settling in London in 1762 to seek his fortune.

Greig, Henry Woods, Royal Academician, London: 1915, p. 30, illustrated facing p. 22. note: Born into a middle-class English family in Warrington, Henry Woods is best known for his paintings documenting everyday people and their lives in Venice, having first visited the city of canals in 1876. He also painted in nearby Serra Valle and Cenada. Prior to establishing his permanent residency in Venice, Woods began to establish his career as a full-time painter with studies at the South Kensington Art School in London, where he went on to befriend fellow artist Luke Fildes. After a stint as an illustrator at The Graphic in London, Woods began exhibiting paintings at the Royal Academy. Once established in Venice, Woods turned away from the subject matter of canals, palaces, and gondoliers, and instead focused on genre scenes. The present work, like other paintings completed during and after this period, was exhibited at the Royal Academy as Woods maintained contacts in England and exhibited at the R.A. nearly every year between 1873 and 1915. By 1893, he was elected a full member of the Royal Academy. The present work depicts a group of women enjoying themselves whilst gambling in a tiny passageway beside the Giudecca canal. In providing some background on the painting, Woods biographer James Greig writes: “A bevy of girls mildly excited in a gambling game played mainly on fête days in the littlefrequented paths along the Guidecca canal. Each Signorina has a card plotted and numbered, and from a bag which is passed round each player takes a tiny block of wood. The winner is she who first fills up the numbered spaces of her card” (Greig, ibid, p. 26). $30,000-50,000

90 ELISABETH FRINK (british 1930-1993) “BIRD MAN IV” 1959. Edition of 6. Signed ‘Frink’ on base, bronze with brown patina Height: 28 1/4 in.

Private Collection, California. exhibited: Baltimore Museum of Art, n.d. literature: Annette Ratuszniak Elisabeth Frink: Catalogue Raisonné of Sculpture 1947-93, London: Beaux Arts, 2013, p. 68, no. FCR70 (another cast illustrated). note: Elisabeth Frink is widely considered one of Britain’s most significant post-war sculptors. She is the recipient of numerous awards including a CBE, multiple honorary doctorates, the election as a member of the Royal Academy, and being named a Dame of the British Empire. Her bronzes are characterized by a rough treatment of the surface which projects the vitality of her subject, and those subjects include men, religious motifs, dogs, horses, and other animals - in particular birds, along with a series of ‘birdmen,’ like the present bronze. Frink’s bronzes convey a certain tension and aggression, said to stem in part from her experiences as an adolescent growing up in Suffolk amidst the backdrop of World War II. Her enviable skill as a sculptor aside, part of the appeal of Frink’s bronzes lies in her working method: she modeled wet plaster onto an armature of metal rods and chicken wire, which, unassisted, she would shape, chisel, and often add more plaster and further distress in an effort to create a pitted surface to be cast in bronze. This manner of creating sculpture gives Frink’s work an immediacy and spontaneity that are hallmarks of her sculpture. As a testament to her legacy, a school bearing her name was created after her death: The Frink School of Figurative Sculpture in 1996. $40,000-60,000

Eugène Boudin: 18241898, Paris: Galerie Schmit, 1973, #3323 (illustrated). $30,000-50,000
note: Born in Honfleur on the estuary of the Seine, Eugène Boudin’s oils have traditionally been associated with water and sea, and his landscapes are characterized by a fine, delicate touch coupled with a fluid, spontaneous application of paint. Trouville, along with Toques, Caudebec-en-Caux, Dunkirk, Anvers and Deauville, were locations that Boudin visited and painted throughout his lengthy and successful tenure as one of France’s most important 19th century painters of sea, shore, harbors, ports, and skies. Nearly his complete oeuvre is comprised of scenes painted along the Normandy coast, between Honfleur and Deauville. The French 19th century painter Camille Corot is said to have lauded Boudin as the “king of the skies.” Throughout his life, Boudin
remained fascinated and in awe of nature, describing his feelings as “tortured by her splendor” and “struggling to reproduce [Nature] within the narrow limits of painting.” The son of a sailor, Boudin dedicated himself to painting at the age of 22, at which time he was already familiar with fellow French artists Constant Tryon, Thomas Couture, and Jean-François Millet. Under the tutelage of Dutch painter Johan Jongkind, Boudin learned to paint en plein air. By 1859 he was exhibiting at the Paris Salon, becoming a regular exhibitor there, and later to be bestowed with the honor of Knight of the Legion of Honor. Selftaught, Boudin would become Claude Monet’s mentor and teacher, the latter crediting the former with his becoming a painter. Boudin’s manner of painting and his depictions of sea and sky, however,
47
were never as detached and broken as typified by the style of the Impressionists. Still, Boudin exhibited his work alongside the canvases of Monet, Berthe Morisot, Camille Pissarro, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Edgar Degas in the first exhibition of Impressionist painting in 1874. We would like to thank Mr. Manuel Schmit who has confirmed the authenticity of the present lot. This painting will be included in the forthcoming new edition of the Catalogue Raisonné of the artist’s work, and will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.

The Horst Rechelbacher Collection of Orientalist Art lots 114-140
H
ORST RECHELBACHER (1914-2014) was, in addition to being an avid collector of fine art, a true pioneer in the field of natural cosmetics in the U.S. Born to an herbalist and shoemaker, his family apartment was nearby a salon in his hometown of Klagenfurt, Austria. Rechelbacher was drawn to the salon industry, and developed a keen interest in plant-based personal care and aromatherapy. He was also an organic farmer, author, speaker, artist, and a great collector, including collecting paintings, including the Orientalist-themed works in the present auction.
on creating skin, hair, body, aroma and lifestyle products using only 100% food based, safe, non-toxic and certified organically grown ingredients. Throughout his career, Horst remained true to his vision of bringing truth and transparency to the beauty and cosmetics industry, even in the face of increasing environmental degradation and a changing cosmetic industry that relies on false 'green' marketing claims. Freeman's is very pleased to offer a selection of artworks from the Horst Rechelbacher Collection in this auction. The same passion that fueled Horst's interest in personal care is evident in the fine, eclectic group of artworks he carefully collected over a decade and a half. The following lots 114 through 140 are oils, watercolors and pastels associated with ‘Orientalism’ – a genre of painting affiliated with scenes, styles, motifs and culture drawn from the Middle East and North Africa, and frequently included odalisques, merchants and harems.
As a young man, Horst won numerous European Junior Hairdressing Championships and international hairdressing awards, ultimately creating his own apprentice program, which became the Horst Education Center, later known as the Aveda Institute. Aveda was founded in 1978 and the company expanded to create various product lines for hair, body care, makeup, aromatherapy and lifestyle products, all created with his commitment to maintaining a sustainable, natural approach. Almost two decades after Rechelbacher incorporated, he sold Aveda to Estée Lauder. Not long thereafter, he went on to create Intelligent Nutrients - a health and beauty company that is centered

note: Alberto Pasini was an important 19th century Italian painter whose depictions of bazaars, market places, mosques, caravans, cavaliers, merchants, horsemen, carpet sellers, gateways and courtyards in Persia, Cairo, Alhambra, Armenia, Arabia, the Red Sea, Istanbul, Constantinople,
Damascus, and Giza, firmly place him in the tradition of Orientalist painters who documented and romanticized the peoples and lands associated with the Middle East in the 19th century. Early on, Pasini studied under the artists Paolo Toschi, Antonio Pasini, Charles and Eugène Cicéri, and Théodore Chassériau. Following his admission
to the Paris Salon, he received commissions from the Sultan Abdul Aziz. The art critic Virgilio Colombo said of Pasini: “[He] faithfully reproduces the architectural accessories, which sparkle in the sun and bathe in the blue shadows: in this, he is unrivaled and shows extraordinary ingenuity to create huge painting in small canvases.

Private Collection, Maryland. exhibited: “Friends Collect,” Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 1966. note: Born Emil Hansen in the village of Nolde - an area in Northern Germany by the Southern Danish border, in the Prussian Duchy of Schleswig - Emil Nolde was one of the most important German Expressionist painters and printmakers of the 20th century. In 1906, he became a member of the Expressionist group ‘Die Brucke,’ a bohemian collective of artists opposed to the established bourgeois social order in Germany and who sought to express authentic emotion by practicing an expressive, avant-garde style of art characterized by a direct approach to form and heightened color. Twelve years later, Nolde exhibited with the Munich based group ‘Der Blaue Reiter,’ a stylistically abstract counterpart to Die Brucke’s figurative style. Der Blaue Reiter artists, of which Nolde was not formally a member but rather a kindred spirit, sought to convey spirituality in their art.
74
Nolde was also a member of the ‘Berlin Secession,’ a group of over sixty artists who rejected the then prevalent view of academic art in Berlin in the 1890s, and who thus seceded from the very well-established Association of Berlin Artists. It should be noted, however, that Nolde’s association with these art movements was short-lived; throughout his career he remained a very solitary artist, who very much refrained from committing himself to any one organization or movement. In addition to his powerful and primitive woodcuts, Nolde is arguably best known for his watercolors which, like the present work, are rendered in a loose, spontaneous and expressive style. These are often executed without contours and on either non-absorbent or even wet paper, and in rich, vivid colors. Nolde is known to have assigned a symbolic quality to the colors he chose. He said: “Every color holds within it a soul, which makes me happy or repels me, and which acts as a stimulus. To a person who has no art in him, colors are colors, tones tones... and that is all.” While Nolde was awarded the prestigious Order of Merit following World War II, during the war he was declared by the Nazis to be a “degenerate” modern artist, and over one thousand of his works were removed from museums at that time. In 1941, the Nazi party banned him from painting. Nonetheless, during this period Nolde executed more than one thousand small watercolors, known as his ‘ungemalte bilder‘ or “unfinished paintings,” small works done in watercolor applied directly on wet paper. $50,000-80,000

painting. Painters Kossak and Henryk Rodakowski were Brandt's first art teachers in Paris, along with Léon Coignet. Josef von Brandt moved to Munich in 1862, opening his own studio and practicing under the tutelage of artists Karl Piloty and Franz Adam. During this period,
Munich became somewhat of a mecca for Polish artists, and von Brandt began to gain notoriety and financial success, establishing a school for young, mostly Polish, painters. In his lifetime he was elected to the Berlin Academy, Munich Academy, and Prague
85
Academy. While known for his depictions of Cossak wars and battle scenes, von Brandt was also highly skilled at depicting Polish peasant life, with horses being central to most of his compositions, as in the present work.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR BUYERS Registration All potential buyers must register for the sale prior to placing a bid. Registration information may be submitted in person at our reception desk, by fax or through our website at www.freemansauction.com. We will require proof of identification and residence and may require a credit card and/or a bank reference. By registering for the sale, the buyer acknowledges that he or she has read, understood and accepted Freeman’s Terms and Conditions of Sale. Buyer’s Premium A Buyer’s Premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price. The Buyer’s Premium shall be: 25% on the first $200,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion from $200,001 through $3,000,000, and 12% thereafter. Sales Tax All items in the catalogue are subject to the 8% Pennsylvania and Philadelphia sales tax. Dealers purchasing for resale must register their tax numbers on current PA forms. Forms should be submitted to our Client Services office on the second floor. Catalogue Descriptions All item descriptions, dimensions and estimates are provided for guidance only. It is the buyer’s responsibility to inspect all lots prior to bidding to ensure that the condition is to their satisfaction. If potential buyers are unable to inspect lots in person, our specialists will be happy to prepare detailed Condition Reports on individual lots as quickly as possible. These are for guidance only, and all lots will be sold “as is” as per our Terms and Conditions of Sale. Bidding At the sale Registered bidders will be assigned a bidder number and given a paddle for use at the sale. 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. The auctioneer will not mistake a random gesture for a bid. By phone A limited number of telephone lines are available for bidding by phone through a Freeman’s representative. Phone lines must be reserved in advance. Requests must be submitted no later than 24 hours prior to the scheduled start of the sale. In writing Bid forms are available in the sale room and at the back of the catalogue. These should be submitted in person, by mail or by fax no later than one hour prior to the scheduled start of the sale. The auctioneer will bid on your behalf up to the limit. On the internet A fully-illustrated catalogue is available on-line at www.freemansauction.com. Registered bidders may leave absentee bids through the website and will receive email confirmation of their bid. Freeman’s is not responsible for errors or failure to execute bids. Payment Payment is due within ten (10) working days of the sale. Lots purchased will not be released until we have received full payment. Payment may be made in cash, by check, money order, or debit card. Payments by check must clear the bank before goods will be released. Removal of Purchases Deliveries will not be made during the time of the sale unless otherwise indicated by the auctioneer. All items must be paid for and removed within ten (10) working days of the sale. Purchases not so removed may be turned over to a licensed warehouse at the expense and risk of the purchaser. Shipping and Packing Responsibility for packing, shipping and insurance shall be exclusively that of the purchaser. Upon request, Freeman’s will provide the purchaser with names of professional packers and shippers known to us. Endangered Species Lots marked * are manufactured in whole or in part of restricted materials that may include tortoiseshell, ivory, mother-of-pearl, coral, rhinoceros horn, whalebone or marine ivory. Such materials may require specific licenses, certificates, or CITES documentation for import, export, moving between states in the U.S., or resale. Obtaining these documents may require scientific, laboratory or other expert analysis, in order to establish which species or genus the material came from. Freeman’s is unable to provide this information, and the obligation is on the purchaser of a lot containing any of these materials to ensure that they are able to obtain all the necessary or required documents should they need to, prior to bidding on the lot. If proper documentation or licenses etc. cannot be obtained for a purchased lot, the purchaser will still be required to make an on time payment for the lot as per our standard terms and conditions. Freeman’s cataloguing of the lots marked with this symbol * represents the best of our opinion, and the absence of this symbol from any lot description does not form a warranty that the lot will be free from any licensing or certification restrictions.

TERMS & CONDITIONS All property offered and sold (“property”) through Samuel T. Freeman & Co, (“Freeman’s”) shall be offered and sold on the terms and conditions set forth below which constitutes the complete statement of the terms and conditions on which all property is offered for sale. By bidding at the auction, whether present in person or by agent, by written bid, telephone, internet or other means, the buyer agrees to be bound by these terms and conditions.
1 Unless otherwise indicated, all Property will be offered by Freeman’s as agent for the Consignor. 2 Freeman’s reserves the right to vary the terms of sale and any such variance shall become part of these Conditions of Sale. 3 Buyer acknowledges that it had the right to make a full inspection of all Property prior to sale to determine the condition, size, repair or restoration of any Property. Therefore, all property is sold “ASIS”. Freeman’s is acting solely as an auction broker, and unless otherwise stated, does not own the Property offered for sale and has made no independent investigation of the Property. Freeman’s makes no warranty of title, merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, or any other warranty or representation regarding the description, genuineness, attribution, provenance or condition to the Property of any kind or nature with respect to the Property. 4 Freeman’s in its sole and exclusive discretion, reserves the right to withdraw any property, at any time, before the fall of the hammer. 5 Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the printed catalogue. Freeman’s reserves the right to determine any and all matters regarding the order, precedence or appropriate increment of bids or the constitution of lots. 6 The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer has the right to reject any bid, to advance the bidding at his absolute discretion and in the event of any dispute between bidders, the auctioneer shall have the sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re- offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after sale, the Freeman’s sale record shall be conclusive in all respects. 7 If the auctioneer determines that any opening or later bid or any advance bid is not commensurate with the value of the Property offered, he may reject the same and withdraw the Property from sale.
8 Upon the fall of the hammer, title to any offered lot or article will immediately pass to the highest bidder as determined in the exclusive discretion of the auctioneer, subject to compliance by the buyer with these Conditions of Sale. Buyer thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility of the property sold, agrees to sign any requested confirmation of purchase, and agrees to pay the full price, plus Buyer’s Premium, therefore or such part, upon such terms as Freeman’s may require. 9 No lot may be removed from Freeman’s premises until the buyer has paid in full the purchase price therefor including Buyer’s Premium or has satisfied such terms that Freeman’s, in its sole discretion, shall require. Subject to the foregoing, all Property shall be paid for and removed by the buyer at his/her expense within ten (10) days of sale and, if not so removed, may be sold by Freeman’s, or sent by Freeman’s to a public warehouse, at the sole risk and charge of the buyer(s), and Freeman’s may prohibit the buyer from participating, directly or indirectly, as a bidder or buyer in any future sale or sales. In addition to other remedies available to Freeman’s by law, Freeman’s reserves the right to impose a late charge of 1.5% per month of the total purchase price on any balance remaining ten (10) days after the day of sale. If Property is not removed by the buyer within ten (10) days, a handling charge of 1% of the total purchase price per month from the tenth day after the sale until removal by the buyer shall be payable to Freeman’s by the buyer; Freeman’s shall charge 1.5% of the total purchase price per month for any property not so removed within 60 days after the sale. Freeman’s will not be responsible for any loss, damage, theft, or otherwise responsible for any goods left in Freeman’s possession after ten (10) days. If the foregoing conditions or any applicable provisions of law are not complied with, in addition to other remedies available to Freeman’s and the Consignor (including without limitation the right to hold the buyer(s) liable for the bid price) Freeman’s, at its option, may either cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages all payments made by the buyer(s), or resell the property. In such event, the buyer(s) shall remain liable for any deficiency
in the original purchase price and will also be responsible for all costs, including warehousing, the expense of the ultimate sale, and Freeman’s commission at its regular rates together with all related and incidental charges, including legal fees. Payment is a precondition to removal. Payment shall be by cash, certified check or similar bank draft, or any other method approved by Freeman’s. Checks will not be deemed to constitute payment until cleared. Any exceptions must be made upon Freeman’s written approval of credit prior to sale. In addition, a defaulting buyer will be deemed to have granted and assigned to Freeman’s, a continuing security interest of first priority in any property or money of, or owing to such buyer in Freeman’s possession, and Freeman’s may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due to Freeman’s. Freeman’s shall have all of the rights accorded a secured party under the Pennsylvania Uniform Commercial Code. 10 Unless the sale is advertised and announced as “without reserve”, each lot is offered subject to a reserve and Freeman’s may implement such reserves by bidding through its representatives on behalf of the Consignors. In certain instances, the Consignor may pay less than the standard commission rate where Freeman’s or its representative is a successful bidder on behalf of the Consignor. Where the Consignor is indebted to Freeman’s, Freeman’s may have an interest in the offered lots and the proceeds therefrom, other than the broker’s Commissions, and all sales are subject to any such interest. 11 No “buy” bids shall be accepted at any time for any purpose. 12 Any pre-sale bids must be submitted in writing to Freeman’s prior to commencement of the offer of the first lot of any sale. Freeman’s copy of any such bid shall conclusively be deemed to be the sole evidence of same, and while Freeman’s accepts these bids for the convenience of bidders not present at the auction, Freeman’s shall not be responsible for the failure to execute, or, to execute properly, any pre-sale bid.
13 A Buyer’s Premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price. The Buyer’s Premium shall be: 25% on the first $200,000 of the hammer price of each lot, 20% on the portion from $200,001 through $3,000,000, and 12% thereafter. 14 Unless exempted by law from the payment thereof, the buyer will be required to pay any and all federal excise tax and any state and/or local sales taxes, including where deliveries are to be made outside the state where a sale is conducted, which may be subject to a corresponding or compensating tax in another state. 15 Freeman’s may, as a service to buyer, arrange to have purchased property posted and shipped at the buyer’s expense. Freeman’s is not responsible for any acts or omissions in packing or shipping of purchased lots whether or not such carrier is recommended by Freeman’s. Packing and handling of purchased lots is at the responsibility of the buyer and is at the entire risk of the buyer. 16 In no event shall any liability of Freeman’s to the buyer exceed the purchase price actually paid. 17 No claimed modification or amendment of this Agreement on the part of any party shall be deemed extant, enforceable or provable unless it is in writing that has been signed by the parties to this Agreement. No course of dealing and no delay or omission on the part of Freeman’s in exercising any right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right and waiver on any one or more occasions shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy of Freeman’s on any future occasion. 18 These Conditions of Sale and the buyer’s, the Consignor’s and Freeman’s rights under these Conditions of Sale shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and Consignor and Buyer agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Court of Common Pleas and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
