An 18ct gold and malachite David di Donatello trophy, Bulgari, 1957, the David statuette in the form of Donatello’s 15th-century sculpture, upon a carved malachite block with an 18 ct gold plaque inscribed for Ingrid Bergman (1915-1982), giving her this award for Best Foreign Actress in the film Anastasia, 1957, ‘Bulgari’ and ‘750’ [18 ct gold] engraved on the plaque lower left and right, the statuette also signed ‘Bulgari’, the statuette approx. 22cm, the base measuring 75mm (height) x 75mm (width) x 80mm (depth) The David di Donatello Awards were established in Italy in 1955 and followed the same criteria as the Oscars. In 1956 Bulgari officially linked its name to the Italian film industry, creating the statuettes and plaques for these awards in 18-carat yellow gold. Bulgari only made these trophy awards for the years 1956 to 1960. 1957 was the first year for these awards in the category of Best Foreign Actress, with Marilyn Monroe, Deborah Kerr, Audrey Hepburn and Brigitte Bardot following on from Ingrid Bergman’s win. Provenance: Laurence ‘Lol’ Anstell Evans (1912-2002), noted theatrical agent and friend of Ingrid Bergman. For further information see Amanda Triossi, ‘Bulgari: 125 Years of Italian Magnificence. Grand Palais’ (2010), pages 284-291 & 379-380. Featured in the exhibition were three David di Donatello trophies in gold with malachite, won by Gina Lollobrigida (1956), Anna Magnani (1958) and Elizabeth Taylor (1959). Somewhat confusingly, Ingrid Bergman is shown (p. 291) holding the award in profile with the malachite pattern on the left-most face not matching that of the statuette offered here. Nonetheless, in view of the good provenance and lasertesting of both the statuette and plaque as 18 carat gold, this is offered as an original trophy. (1) £4000-6000

Provenance: Cumhur Odabasioglu, immortalized by Rose Macaulay in The Towers of Trebizond (1956) as ‘my Turkish friend…called Odobasiogli’, was a real citizen of Trabzon and the blood brother of the Byzantinist Anthony Bryer (1937-2016). In 1959, the young Bryer, already enthralled by the lost empire of Trebizond and all that appertained to it, met Cumhur in the main square where, as a successful travel agent, he was organising one of the departures of a hajj party to Mecca. He and Bryer became fast friends and in due course, on one of their expeditions, a minor injury led to the mingling of their blood and Cumhur declared them to be blood brothers. This link was maintained until his death in 1992 when, as well as leaving the welfare of his wife and daughter to Bryer baba, he bequeathed his silver hammam accoutrements, here present.

Quilts were often given as wedding gifts, or made by a betrothed young woman to take with her to her future husband’s house. Such a bedcover was both a practical household item as well as an important keepsake of the girl’s old life, particularly if her new home was distant from friends and family. Quilts were also made to celebrate other key life events, such as the birth of a child, as well as sometimes to remember the dead. This marriage quilt is a particularly attractive one, and it survives in very good condition. It includes the Lord’s Prayer, Biblical quotations, and part of the refrain from Philip P. Bliss’s 1870 hymn ‘Hold the Fort’: “Hold the fort for I am coming, Jesus signals still”. Bliss’s hymn was inspired by an incident in the American Civil War in which a message was relayed by flag semaphore to ‘hold the fort’ resulting in the ultimate retreat of the French. (1) £800-1200

EVELYN DE MORGAN (1855-1919) Drawings, Preparatory Studies & Related Works from a Private Collection

328* Burne-Jones (Edward Coley, 1833-1898). Sketches drawn in Roddam Spencer Stanhope’s studio, a collection of small pencil sketches on a single sheet of paper, mostly figure and head studies, including several self-portraits, one of the artist with his palette, one annotation in the artist’s hand ‘Borgia’, lightly toned and spotted, 35.5 x 25cm (14 x 10ins), mounted, framed and glazed Provenance: The collection of Mrs. Roddam Spencer Stanhope; by descent to her niece Mrs. A.M.W. Stirling. Bibliography: ‘A Painter of Dreams’, by A.M.W. Stirling, pp.332-333. Edward Burne-Jones produced a number of sketched self-portraits and caricatures of himself, often embellishing his correspondence with such drawings. Some show him in comic despair, and it has been suggested that he used this medium of artistic expression to raise himself out of the melancholy which often overtook him. English artist John Roddam Spencer Stanhope (1829-1908) was a close associate of Edward Burne-Jone, and one of his most important followers. The artists were frequent visitors to each other’s houses, and although slightly the elder, Stanhope was strongly influenced by his friend. Stanhope’s niece was Evelyn De Morgan, who often travelled to stay with him in Florence where he set up home in 1880. Evelyn’s sister, Anna Stirling (née Pickering), wrote the collection of essays ‘A Painter of Dreams’ which included reminiscences of her uncle, and in which this work is illustrated. (1) £700-1000

329* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Study of female arms and hands, coloured chalks on brown paper, showing a pair of outstretched arms, the hands with fingers poised, some pin holes to upper edge and lower corners, sheet size 26 x 48cm (10.25 x 19ins) (1)

£300-500

331* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Study for Deianira, pencil on thick paper, laid down on card, showing the full-length profile figure of Deianira in a wind-swept landscape, clutching her head in her hands in despair, dusty, some small marks, mostly marginal, but one stain to upper portion touching drapery and hair, marginal pin holes, sheet size (not including mount) 45 x 30cm (17.75 x 11.75ins)

330* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Compositional study for By the Waters of Babylon, black & white chalks on blue-grey paper, showing a frieze of seven figures, one with a harp, in a landscape with trees, image size 21.5 x 40cm (8.5 x 15.75ins), sheet size 28 x 42cm (11 x 16.5ins)

A preparatory study for ‘Deianira’, of which Evelyn De Morgan painted two versions, one in watercolour and the other in oil. The monogrammed watercolour is a similar size to the drawing offered here, and was sold in the 1980s by Peter Nahum at The Leicester Galleries, London. The oil was larger, and was signed and dated 1878. It was sold at Sotheby’s on 17th March 1971 (lot 137), and was acquired then or later by the De Morgan Foundation (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, 1996, plate 72). However, it was subsequently lost in October 1991 when a fire raged through Bourlet’s art storage unit in south-west London where some of the De Morgan Foundation’s art collection was being held. In Greek mythology Deianira was the wife of Heracles, who had won her hand by defeating the river god Achelous in a wrestling match. After their marriage Heracles shot the centaur Nessus with a poisoned arrow, after he tried to run off with Deianira. The dying centaur gave some of his blood to Deianira, saying that if Heracles was ever unfaithful the blood would revive his feelings for her. When later Deianira had occasion to follow the centaur’s advice, sending Heracles a blood-smeared tunic, the garment burned him to death. On hearing that she had unwittingly killed her husband Deianira took her own life. De Morgan chooses to depict Deianira at the moment of despair, just before her suicide. Her face is curiously calm, but she is a large solitary figure in a bare landscape, which reinforces her attitude of grief. In the oil painting there is more detail in both landscape and figure, but in all three versions she is clearly bereft. In both the pencil drawing and the watercolour the trees move with the wind, but in the oil they are resolutely still. The face of Deiarina in each version is subtley different, the drawing showing her at her most inward-looking, oblivious to the elements which cause her cloak to billow over her head. (1) £700-1000

A preliminary sketch for ‘By the Waters of Babylon’, Evelyn de Morgan’s large scale oil painting, illustrating the Biblical story of the exile of the Jews in Psalm 137. She finished the work in 1882, and it is now held by the De Morgan Foundation (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, 1996, plate 11). This early study is typical of the artist’s first loose compositional sketches for a work. It is interesting to see that, although two of the main figures present in the oil painting do not yet take their place, the final composition in outline deviates little from her initial concept. (1) £200-300

Lot 332

Lot 333 332* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Study of a head and hands, 1877, pencil on thick paper, profile head and shoulders portrait of a curly-haired boy turned to the left, above a study of two hands, initialled and dated in pencil to right-hand margin, a little dusty (mainly to margins), sheet size 35 x 25cm (14 x 10ins) (1)

£300-500

333* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Study of a female nude for Port after Stormy Seas, coloured chalks on green paper, depicting a reclining female nude with left arm slightly raised and supported, soiled and frayed with slight loss to right-hand margin, not affecting image, sheet size 38 x 54.5cm (15 x 21.5ins) Evelyn De Morgan’s allegorical oil painting ‘Port After Stormy Seas’ (1905) is based directly on Spenser’s Faerie Queen, Canto IX, 40-41: ‘Sleep after toyle, port after stormie seas/Ease after warre, death after life doe greatly please’. It is housed in the De Morgan Foundation (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, 1996, plate 46), and depicts a weary but peaceful woman, draped on some rocks, with the Angel of Death as her helper in the transition from the difficulties of life to the light of the peaceful land in the distance. Our preparatory study shows De Morgan exploring the placement and attitude of the main protagonist. The drawing of such preliminary studies formed an important stage in the artist’s process of creating paintings throughout her career. She typically drew a figure unclothed before drawing it clothed, to ensure anatomical accuracy and enable her to convey realistically the effect of drapery around the body. (1) £800-1200

334* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Study of a female nude for The Kingdom of Heaven Suffereth Violence and the Violent Take It By Force, black & white chalks on brown paper, depicting a standing female nude with torso bent forward and head in hands, sheet size 52 x 27.5cm (20.5 x 10.75ins)

Lot 334

The oil painting for which this study was executed was completed in 1878, and is now held by the De Morgan Foundation. There has been much debate over the meaning of the Biblical passage from which De Morgan’s allegorial painting takes its title: “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force” (Matthew 11:12). Judy Oberhausen states that “of all De Morgan’s paintings this may be considered her masterpiece because it utilizes the artist’s considerable technical skill to convey a personal vision of the spiritualist notion of spiritual evolution” (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, 1996, p.43, plate 53). Through composition and palette changes the artist works out the idea of the spiritual progress of the soul from the stagnation of sin in the lower portion of the picture, through various stages of struggle, to ultimate enlightenment and celestial light. Our preparatory study shows De Morgan exploring the stance of the lower left figure, one of the undeveloped souls, whose body is bowed over in anguish with her head clasped in her hands in despair, conveying a weight of sin and darkness.

335* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Double nude study for The Kingdom of Heaven Suffereth Violence and the Violent Take It By Force, black & white chalks on brown paper, depicting two standing female nudes, one with arms outstretched to either side, the other in a stooping posture, sheet size 35.5 x 54.5cm (14 x 21.5ins)

336* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Study of a female nude for Cadmus and Harmonia, black chalk highlighted with white chalk on brown paper, depicting a standing female nude entwined by a snake, loss and minor fraying to upper margin, one short tear slightly encroaching on the figure’s hair, reverse with a drawing of a Michelagelesque female saint reading, black chalk highlighted with white chalk, sheet size 51 x 30.5cm (20 x 12ins), together with another study for Harmonia and the snake, pencil on card, dusty, a few marks to right-hand blank margin, trimmed to upper edge, with loss of single line pencil border, sheet size 28.5 x 6.75cm (11.25 x 17ins)

The oil painting for which this study was executed was completed in 1878, and is now held by the De Morgan Foundation. There has been much debate over the meaning of the Biblical passage from which De Morgan’s allegorial painting takes its title: “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force” (Matthew 11:12). Judy Oberhausen states that “of all De Morgan’s paintings this may be considered her masterpiece because it utilizes the artist’s considerable technical skill to convey a personal vision of the spiritualist notion of spiritual evolution” (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, 1996, p.43, plate 53). Through composition and palette changes the artist works out the idea of the spiritual progress of the soul from the stagnation of sin in the lower portion of the picture, through various stages of struggle, to ultimate enlightenment and celestial light. Our preparatory study shows De Morgan exploring, on the left-hand side of the sheet, the posture of one of the figures on the right who is breaking free from her fetters and moving towards the celestial light, and on the right-hand side of the sheet, one of the souls as yet in the mire of despondency, bowed over and clutching one hand to her breast. The De Morgan Foundation holds five similar studies of female nudes for the painting, as well as several associated drapery studies. (1 ) £300-500

‘Cadmus and Harmonia’ is housed in the De Morgan Foundation (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, 1996, plate 3). The subject of the painting is taken from Ovid’s Metamorphoses (Book IV, 563-603). It depicts Cadmus after his transformation into a serpent, entwining himself around his wife. The following lines from Ovid accompanied the work when it was exhibited: “With lambent tongue he kissed her patient face,/Crept in her bosom as his dwelling place/Entwined her neck, and shared the loved embrace.” The work was painted in 1877, shortly after De Morgan had returned from a trip to Italy. The figure of Harmonia is reminiscent of the central figure in Botticelli’s ‘The Birth of Venus’, which Evelyn had copied as a student (the De Morgan Foundation houses a watercolour she made after Botticelli’s famous work).

339* De Morgan (William, 1839-1917). Study of a dragon, pencil highlighted with bodycolour on grey paper, showing a tethered dragon, pencil grid to aid enlargement, signed in ink lower right, lightly damp-stained to lower right (touching image), biro annotations on verso, sheet size 15 x 31cm (6 x 12ins) Drawing made for the front panel in a Morris & Co. ebonised oak cabinet which belonged to Mrs. Stirling, and is now in the collection of the De Morgan Foundation. Although the oil painting on the cabinet is attributed to William De Morgan, there is a design for the panel in the hand of his wife, Evelyn. The presence of this dragon drawing suggests that there are certainly grounds for the attribution, and probably the design was the result of a collaboration by the two artists. The hand-written note on the verso of this drawing states: “Sketch made by William De Morgan for panel in the Morris & Co built china cabinet at Old Battersea House showing the Dragon in the painting done by De Morgan. This drawing (and painting) must NOT be confused with St. George and the Dragon. It is of course St. Martha’s Dragon. In this picture St. Martha has tethered the Dragon with a silken rope and is taking it back to TARRASCON in Provence, France to show the townspeople who were terrorized by it.” However, the De Morgan Foundation states that the image is indeed of St. George’s dragon, a theory which seems to be borne out by the knight that kneels in front of the people (in this tale the citizens of Silene) and the sword lodged in the side of the beast (St. Martha tamed her dragon, without recourse to violence and injury). Known first and foremost as the principal potter of the Arts & Crafts Movement, William De Morgan’s imagery has a number of recurring themes, and one which he returned to again and again was the dragon, depicting this and other fantastical beasts in tiles, vases, chargers and dishes.

337* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Double study of male figures for Aurora Triumphans, black & white chalks on brown paper, showing two male figures, each blowing a trumpet, some marginal pin holes, sheet size 31.5 x 48cm (12.5 x 19ins), together with a pencil study on card for the same work, depicting a male head, half profile turned to the left, blowing a trumpet, a trifle dusty, image size approximately 12.5 x 15cm (5 x 6ins), sheet size 25.5 x 35.5cm (10 x 14ins) ‘Aurora Triumphans’ was exhibited in 1886 at the Grosvenor Gallery, London, and it is now in the Russell-Cotes Art Gallery & Museum, Bournemouth (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, plate 23). Merton Russell-Cotes’s son, Herbert, bought it for the museum around 1922 believing it to be by Edward Burne-Jones after an unscrupulous art dealer had painted over the signature with Burne-Jones’s initials. The oil shows the Roman goddess of the dawn, Aurora, breaking the shackles of night. Dominating the picture are three red-winged angelic trumpeters in gold tunics, for which these preparatory studies were executed. The De Morgan Foundation has a similar pencil drawing of a male head in profile blowing a trumpet. (2) £400-600

338* De Morgan (Evelyn, 1855-1919). Sketchbook of anatomical studies, twenty-two pastel drawings on rectos of sixteen tan card leaves (and five blank leaves at rear), of hands, arms, feet, torsos, and necks, leaf size 37 x 24cm (14.5 x 9.5ins), edges rough-trimmed, original green cloth with pencil holder and elastic closure (stretched), some soiling to upper cover, folio Evelyn De Morgan’s preparatory studies are both beautiful in their own right and enlightening for what they tell us about her working process. Her drawings for each work are extensive, and include both loose and more finished compositional sketches, detailed life studies of nude and clothed figures, drawings of drapery and details of faces and anatomy. Expressive hand gestures are a frequent characteristic of De Morgan’s oil paintings, and she particularly studied hands and feet in exquisite detail in her pursuit of realism. Because she rarely deviated from her initial conception we can say with certainty that several of the sketches contained in this album were produced for ‘Pro Patria Mori’, one of De Morgan’s works destroyed by fire in October 1991 (‘Evelyn De Morgan, oil paintings’, DMF, plate 96).

Henry Rheam studied art in Germany, at Heatherly’s in London, and at Julian’s Atelier in Paris. He worked mainly in watercolour, and for a brief period he contributed greatly to the output of the Newlyn School of artists (having also benefited the town with his prowess on the cricket field). However, the majority of Rheam’s paintings are in a romantic, late PreRaphaelite style; by the mid 1890s, he had turned exclusively to such illustrative subjects. (1) £500-800

345* After Charles Heaphy (1820-1881). Thorndon Flat and Part of the City of Wellington, New Zealand, circa 1840s, oil on canvas, unsigned, 62 x 74cm (24 x 29ins), contemporary burr walnut frame Provenance: Acquired by Dr Charles Arundel Overbury Fox (1886-1971) from Francis Edwards, London, circa 1935. Fox was an English collector of early New Zealand and Pacific works of art; acquired by the current owner's family from the estate of Dr Fox following his death in Birmingham, England, in 1971. Some brief manuscript notes of provenance in Dr Fox's hand and a letter from Rex Nan Kivell of the Redfern Gallery, London, dated 20 May 1959, are offered with the lot. The letter from Rex Nan Kivell suggests a connection with a lithograph Charles Heaphy and says that he has a painting of the same size that is obviously a copy from the lithograph. An early large-scale painting of the harbour and settlement of Wellington in New Zealand. As a composition, this painting is most similar to that engraved by Thomas Allom after the drawing by Charles Heaphy entitled 'Part of Lambton Harbour, Port Nicholson, New Zealand; Comprehending about One Third of the Waterfrontage of the Town of Wellington, April, 1841', published for the New Zealand Company in 1842. Unlike the original watercolour of the same scene which has no figures by the flagpole on 'Flagstaff Hill' from where the scene is observed, two groups of three figures have been added into the engraving, one European and five Maori. The flag in the watercolour is that of the New Zealand Company while the lithograph shows a Union Jack. The painting here offered shows many similar characteristics to the watercolour and print and strongly suggests the artist had knowledge of the print. Charles Heaphy was employed by the New Zealand Company as a draughtsman and drew his watercolour in April 1841. He presented the new settlement in a positive light in order to attract new immigrants and investors, showing cows wandering on the beach, the Maori in the foreground welcoming a European, and the gentle hills suggesting suitability for farming. Heaphy is not known to have painted in oils. The painting here has five figures set in two groups by the flagpole, but also shows European and Maori figures, a man in a straw hat facing the viewer possibly being that of the artist. The flag is that of the New Zealand Company and unlike Heaphy's watercolour and the print after it, is shown furled and not blowing in the breeze. There are fewer boats in the harbour in this painting than in Heaphy's version and while there are no cows on the beach there are various figures in front of the Maori settlement. The tide is out and shows a tongue-shaped spit of sand near identical to Heaphy's depiction; the settlements along the far shore and rising chimney smoke below the hills are very similar too. With thanks for the assistance of Dr Oliver Stead of the Alexander Turnbull Library, Wellington, New Zealand. (1)

Edwards, 1796, a collection of 88 woodcuts (from the total of 135), including 56 full sheet (385 x 554mm), each with oval library ink stamp to verso, the remaining 32 cut down (approximately 385 x 400mm) and with mounting adhesive remains to versos, printed plate numbers sometimes altered in an old hand, occasional fraying, scattered old dampstaining and browning, a few tears and crude repairs, mostly to cut down plates, plate 82 (renumbered 83) highly defective, all loosely contained in old quarter morocco portfolio, soiled and worn, large folio The original drawings for the woodcuts of The Triumph of Maximilian were made between 1512 and 1516, chiefly by Hans Burgkmair but with contributions by Albrecht Altdorfer, Hans Schaufelein, Hans Springinklee, and others, including one by Albrecht Durer. The woodcuts form a continuous procession measuring approximately 177 feet, celebrating the achievements of the young emperor, whose death in 1519 at the age of 60 put an end to the production. The illustrations are especially interesting for the depiction of regional officials and professions, and exotic peoples and animals.

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS AFTER THE AUCTION Online Results: If you weren’t present or able to follow the auction live, you can find results for the sale on our website shortly after the sale has ended. Payment: The price you pay is the amount at which the auctioneer’s hammer falls (the hammer price), plus a buyer’s premium (a percentage of the final hammer price) and vat where applicable. You will be issued with an invoice made out to the name and address provided on your registration form. Please note successful bids made via live bidding cannot be invoiced or paid for until the day after an auction. A live bidding fee of 3% + vat will be added to your invoice.

METHODS OF PAYMENT Cheque: Cheques will only be accepted on the day of the sale by prior arrangement (please contact our office for further information).

Cash: Payments can be made at the Cashier’s Office, either during or after the sale. Debit Card: There is no additional charge for purchases made with debit cards in the UK. All card payments drawn on an overseas bank, however, will be subject to a 2% surcharge. Credit Cards: We accept Visa and Mastercard, to which a 2% surcharge will apply. It is advisable to let your card provider know in advance if you are intending to purchase. This reduces the time needed to obtain authorisation when the payment is made.

When it is possible for our in-house packing department to send your purchase(s), a charge for postage/packing/insurance will be included in your invoice. Where it is not possible for our in-house packing department to send your item you will be required to make your own arrangements or to contact Mailboxes etc (tel: 01793 525009) who may be able to help. We provide a monthly delivery service to Central London, usually on Wednesday of the week following an auction. Payment must be received before this option can be requested. A charge will be added to your invoice for this service.

ARTIST'S RESALE RIGHT LAW ("DROIT DE SUITE") Lots marked with AR next to the lot number may be subject to Droit de Suite. Droit de Suite is payable on the hammer price of any artwork sold in the lifetime of the artist, or within 70 years of the artist's death. The buyer agrees to pay Dominic Winter Auctioneers Ltd. an amount equal to the resale royalty and we will pay such amount to the artist's collecting agent. Resale royalty applies where the Hammer price is 1,000 Euros or more and the amount cannot be more than 12,500 Euros per lot. The amount is calculated as follows: Royalty For the Portion of the Hammer Price (in Euros) 4.00% up to 50,000 3.00% between 50,000.01 and 200,000 1.00% between 200,000.01 and 350,000 0.50% between 350,000.01 and 500,000 Invoices will, as usual, be issued in Pounds Sterling. For the purposes of calculating the resale royalty the Pounds Sterling/Euro rate of exchange will be the European Central Bank reference rate on the day of the sale. Please refer to the DACS website www.dacs.org.uk and the Artists’ Collecting Society website www.artistscollectingsociety.org for further details.

NOTES

159

CONDITIONS OF SALE AND BUSINESS 1. The Seller warrants to the Auctioneer and the buyer that he is the true owner or is properly authorised to sell the property by the true owner and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims. 2. (a) The highest bidder to be the buyer. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen he has absolute authority to settle it or re-offer the lot. The Auctioneer may at his sole discretion determine the advance of bidding or refuse a bid, divide any lot, combine any two or more lots or withdraw any lot without prior notice. (b) Where goods are bought at auction by a buyer who has entered into an agreement with another or others that the other or others (or some of them) shall abstain from bidding for the goods and the buyer or other party or one of the other parties is a dealer (as defined in the Auction Biddings Agreement Act 1927) the buyer warrants that the goods are bought bona fide on joint account. 3. The buyer shall pay the price at which a lot is knocked down by the Auctioneer to the buyer (“the hammer price”) together with a premium of 19.5% of the hammer price. Where the lot is marked by an asterisk the premium will be subject to VAT at 23.40% which under the Auctioneer’s Margin Scheme will form part of the buyer’s premium on our invoice and will not be separately identified (the premium added to the hammer price will hereafter collectively be referred to as “the total sum due”). By making any bid the buyer acknowledges that his attention has been drawn to the fact that on the sale of any lot the Auctioneer will receive from the seller commission at its usual rates in addition to the said premium of 19.5% and assents to the Auctioneer receiving the said commission. 4. (a) The buyer shall forthwith upon the purchase give in his name and permanent address and pay to the Auctioneer immediately after the conclusion of the auction the total sum due. (b) The buyer may be required to pay down during the course of the sale the whole or any part of the total sum due, and if he fails to do so after such request the lot or lots may at the Auctioneer's absolute discretion be put up again and resold immediately. (c) The buyer shall at his own expense take away any lot or lots purchased no later than five working days after the auction day. (d) The Auctioneer may at his own discretion agree credit terms with a buyer and extend the time limits for collection in special cases but otherwise payment shall be deemed to have been made only after the Auctioneer has received cash or a sterling banker’s draft or the buyer's cheque has been cleared. 5. (a) If the buyer fails to pay for or take away any lot or lots pursuant to clause 4 or breaches any other condition of that clause the Auctioneer as agent for the seller shall be entitled after consultation with the seller to exercise one or other of the following rights: (i) Rescind the sale of that or any other lots sold to the buyer who defaults and re-sell the lot or lots whereupon the defaulting buyer shall pay to the Auctioneer any shortfall between the proceeds of that sale after deduction of costs of re-sale and the total sum due. Any surplus shall belong to the seller. (ii) Proceed for damages for breach of contract. (b) Without prejudice to the Auctioneer's rights hereunder if any lots or lots are not collected within five days or such longer period as the Auctioneer may have agreed otherwise, the Auctioneer may charge the buyer a storage charge of £1.00 + VAT at the current rate per lot per day. (c) Ownership of the lot purchased shall not pass to the buyer until he has paid to the Auctioneer the total sum due. 6. (a) The seller shall be entitled to place a reserve on any lot and the Auctioneer shall have the right to bid on behalf of the seller for any lot on which a reserve has been placed. A seller may not bid on any lot on which a reserve has been placed. (b) Where any lot fails to sell, the Auctioneer shall notify the seller accordingly. The seller shall make arrangements either to re-offer the lot for sale or to collect the lot and may be asked to pay a commission not exceeding 50% of the selling commission and any special expenses incurred in cataloguing the lot. (c) If such arrangements are not made within seven days of the notification the Auctioneer is empowered to sell the lot by auction or by private treaty at not less than the reserve price and to receive from the seller the normal selling commission and special expenses.

7. Any representation or statement by the Auctioneer in any catalogue, brochure or advertisement of forthcoming sales as to authorship, attribution, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price is a statement of opinion only. Every person interested should exercise and rely on his own judgement as to such matters and neither the Auctioneer nor his servants or agents are responsible for the correctness of such opinions. No warranty whatsoever is given by the Auctioneer or the seller in respect of any lot and any express or implied warranties are hereby excluded. 8. (a) Notwithstanding any other terms of these conditions, if within fourteen days of the sale the Auctioneer has received from the buyer of any lot notice in writing that in his view the lot is a deliberate forgery and within fourteen days after such notification the buyer returns the same to the Auctioneer in the same condition as at the time of the sale and satisfies the Auctioneer that considered in the light of the entry in the catalogue the lot is a deliberate forgery then the sale of the lot will be rescinded and the purchase price of the same refunded. "A deliberate forgery" means a lot made with intention to deceive. (b) A buyer's claim under this condition shall be limited to any amount paid to the Auctioneer for the lot and for the purpose of this condition the buyer shall be the person to whom the original invoice was made out by the Auctioneer. 9. Lots may be removed during the sale after full settlement in accordance with 4(d) hereof. 10. All goods delivered to the Auctioneer's premises will be deemed to be delivered for sale by auction unless otherwise stated in writing and will be catalogued and sold at the Auctioneer's discretion and accepted by the Auctioneer subject to all these conditions. In the case of miscellaneous books, the Auctioneer reserves the right to extract and dispose of books that, in the opinion of the Auctioneer at his absolute discretion, have no saleable value and, therefore, might detract from the saleability of the rest of the lot and the Auctioneer shall incur no liability to the seller, in respect of the books disposed of. By delivering the goods to theAuctioneer for inclusion in his auction sales each seller acknowledges that he/she accepts and agrees to all the conditions. 11. (a) Unless otherwise instructed in writing all goods on the Auctioneer's premises and in their custody will be held insured against the risks of fire, burglary, water damage and accidental breakage or damage. The value of the goods so covered will be the hammer price, or in the case of unsold lots the lower estimate, or in the case of loss or damage prior to the sale that which the specialised staff of the Auctioneer shall in their absolute discretion estimate to be the auction value of such goods. (b) The Auctioneer shall not be responsible for damage to or the loss, theft, or destruction of any goods not so insured because of the owner’s written instructions. 12. The Auctioneer shall remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller thirty days after the day of the auction provided that the Auctioneer has received the total sum due from the buyer. In all other cases the Auctioneer will remit the proceeds of the sale to the seller within seven days of the receipt by the Auctioneer of the total sum due. The Auctioneer will not be deemed to have received the total sum due until after any cheque delivered by the buyer has been cleared. In the event of the Auctioneer exercising his right to rescind the sale his obligation to the seller hereunder lapses. 13. In the case of the seller withdrawing instructions to the Auctioneer to sell any lot or lots, the Auctioneer may charge a fee of 12.5% of the Auctioneer's middle estimate of the auction price of the lot withdrawn together with Value Added Tax thereon and any expenses incurred in respect of the lot or lots. 14. The Auctioneer’s current standard notices and information (i.e. Collation and Amendments) will apply to any contract with the Auctioneer as if incorporated herein. 15. These conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English Law.
