AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN ART
The Collection of Noel and Kathryn Dickinson Wadsworth, Atlanta, Georgia Noel and Kathy Wadsworth’s appreciation of American history was captured through their art, furniture, and decorative collection. Noel and his late wife, Kathy, are among the original founders of the Auburn Fine Arts Museum, contributing the gallery that bears their name: The Noel and Kathryn Dickinson Wadsworth Gallery. A portion of their art collection was loaned to the museum and featured in the exhibition, Auburn Collects. The Wadsworth's curated collection was also featured in Time magazine in the early 1980s. The couple met at Auburn University and were members of the first graduating class in June 1960. Following graduation, they moved to Dalton, Georgia, the epicenter of the American Carpet Industry, where Noel's career and their family thrived. Philanthropic and community-minded, they eventually settled in Atlanta, Georgia and filled their Marietta home with furniture, décor, and art that spanned the ages—from Colonial to Art Nouveau. An interest in American art grew after traveling to shows and auctions in New York, New Orleans, London, and Paris. The couple collected mostly American art from the late 19th and early 20th century with a focus on Ashcan school artists. The Wadsworths, however, felt important European artists who were friends of the American artists represented in their collection were also needed to convey the full story of the period. The result became a lifelong decorative and fine art collection that reflects the eye of a discerning collector and will be offered through multiple auctions at Hindman this spring.

AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN ART
Cherry Lane Theater, with its welcoming glow and crowd of people, documents a slice of New York theater life in the late 1940s. Still in existence in Greenwich Village, the Cherry Lane Theatre has long been a home for nontraditional and experimental works. Originally the site of a silo on the Gomez farm in 1817, the building that now stands at 38 Commerce Street was first erected as a brewery in 1836 and later served as a tobacco warehouse and box factory. In 1923, theater artists Evelyn Vaughn, William S. Rainey, Reginald Travers, and Edna St. Vincent Millay converted the structure into a theater they named the Cherry Lane Playhouse. The famed scenic designer and architect Cleon Throckmorton was commissioned to do the alterations. The theater fueled some of the most ground-breaking experiments of the American stage, including the Downtown Theater movement, The Living Theatre, and Theatre of the Absurd, which all took root at the Playhouse. Interest and involvement in theatrical activities permeated the life of Everett Shinn from his youth when his obsession with the circus led him to learn acrobatics and he later honed his illustration skills by creating poster for the local opera house. As a maturing artist, Shinn became a member of “The Eight,” with Robert Henri as mentor and proponent of the true representation of gritty, urban life. A trip to Europe in 1900 exposed the young artist to the dynamic and vibrant work of Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas, which further fueled his interest in the depiction of the theater. Shinn’s devotion to performance was not limited to his painting practice. He wrote plays that he produced in his New York home on Irving Place; served as an art director in Hollywood; produced public murals; and worked as an illustrator and interior designer. The present artwork reveals Shinn’s facility as both an illustrator and creator of tightly composed scenes. Viewed from across the street, the milling crowd outside the theater is sketchily but deftly described. A solitary woman sits and smokes next to a couple on a bench; a man in tuxedo and woman wearing an evening gown converse; a crowd of curious onlookers wait outside the shadows. The warm lights from the building spill out onto the sidewalk and envelopes the figures nearest in a convivial glow. The scene perhaps depicts intermission, capturing both the anticipation and tedium of the break in action. Unnoticed by the theatergoers, the dark shadow of a cat darts to the right but appears to look at the crowd as it runs by. Here, Shinn portrays the audience in the painting as actors themselves in an unknown play, for which the outside viewer can imagine the dramas and comedies within.

AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN ART
Originally associated with the Ashcan School of artists, William Glackens came to be known as an American Impressionist and was compared to Manet and Degas by contemporary critics. Although Glackens closely interacted with Robert Henri and the Ashcan crowd—studying, sharing studio space, and traveling with them— he was drawn less to the rough, urban scenes and more to scenes of recreation and entertainment. He depicted the real but chose more ebullient themes than most of his friend from Philadelphia and the “Charcoal Club.” Art historian William H. Gerdts claims that Glackens exhibited a “commitment to the theme of urban and suburban pleasure grounds,” frequently depicting parks, gardens, beaches, dance halls, festivals, theatres, restaurants, and family gatherings. In 1895 Glackens joined mentor Henri on a 15-month sojourn to Europe. He continued to travel throughout his career to the Continent, often visiting Paris. It was here that the artist found inspiration in the art of the French Impressionists, particularly in the paintings of Pierre-Auguste Renoir. The first-hand exposure to Renoir’s work had a profound effect on Glackens’ approach to color, and the artist adopted a vivid palette with contrasting harmonies. By the 1910s, the artist became known as a “figure specialist,” moving away from his earlier, populated landscapes, seascapes, and urban vistas, and concentrating more on individuals. Glackens did not intend these paintings as portraits, although he used specific models; the titles, such as Girl with Violin, affirm the ambiguity that he desired in these images. Noel Wadsworth, the present owner of this artwork, recounts a conversation that he had with Ira Glackens, the artist’s son: “Ira remembers the model for Girl with Violin. She frequently posed for William Glackens when Ira was a child, and she actually played the violin.” In addition to this shift in subject matter, Glackens intensified his approach to light and color, revealing the continued influence of Renoir. Girl with Violin reflects his new preoccupation with individuals and colorism, while still referencing his interest in leisure and entertainment. Infused with jewel-like greens and contrasting deep reds, the painting presents the unidentified musician as if about to begin to play, her bow not yet in her hand. She raises her eyebrows laconically, as if to command a respectful silence from her audience. The work is representative of Glackens’ impressionistic approach, with its broad, feathery brushwork and interest in entertainment as subject matter.

Property from the Michael Hall Collection, Miami Beach, Florida Literature: Lincoln Kirstein, Elie Nadelman, New York, 1973, p. 293, no. 67 (the plaster cast referenced) $60,000 - 80,000
The plaster from which this work was cast is in the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. According to Lincoln Kirstein, this plaster model served as the prototype for the painted brass Man in a Top Hat, circa 1920-24, which is in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, New York. (L. Kirstein, Elie Nadelman, New York, 1973, p. 293) Note: By all accounts, Michael Hall, actor, collector and art dealer, was a memorable character who led a truly remarkable life. Michael delighted in being outrageous frequently the life of the party, always with an entertaining repertory of anecdotes and jokes. Michael was also a very serious collector with an inquisitive nature, extremely passionate and opinionated concerning his chosen field of Renaissance and Baroque art, and was always willing to share his vast knowledge. Michael was mentored by Wilhelm Valentiner, a specialist in Italian Renaissance art and then a consultant to what would become the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Through Valentiner, Hall was introduced to Sir John Pope-Hennessy and Sir Kenneth Clark, and formed friendships with a number of authorities including Rudolf Wittkower, H.W. Janson and Francis Watson. In 1963, Hall moved to New York, and with William Mills, opened a gallery at 6 East 79th Street. His clients grew to include among others, Charles and Jayne Wrightsman, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum of Fine Art, Boston, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Detroit Institute of Art. In later years, Michael and his husband, Thomas divided time between their Florida, New York and Connecticut residences, but never stopped enjoying and collecting decorative arts. Those who knew Michael would agree his passion for collecting knew no bounds.

AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN ART
A master of sparkling sunlight, Daniel Garber is widely thought of as one of the most influential Pennsylvania Impressionists. He studied in Europe for two years before returning to the United States in 1907, where he settled in Bucks County with his wife, Mary Franklin Garber. The bucolic landscape had enchanted the artist earlier, when he was introduced to the area by William Lathrop, then the leader of the New Hope School. Garber and his wife purchased a farmhouse in Cuttalossa Glen, a hamlet in the Delaware River Valley which offered inspirational scenic views. As Metropolitan Museum of Art Curator Sylvia Yount explains, “It was from his home base at Cuttalossa that Garber built his life - his career as a teacher, his reputation as a painter, and of course his work: vistas of quarries and forests along the Delaware; calm, transcendental domestic scenes with his family as subjects.” Garber transformed the property to reflect the ideal, picturesque world he envisioned, grooming both the land and the buildings on it. Garber preferred to paint the Buck County views in the spring and summer, in order to better capture the verdant landscape at its most luxuriant. Near Solebury is no exception. Characteristic of Garber’s work in the 1910s, the landscape is divided into three distinct layers. The foreground is dotted with variegated leaves and grasses, while the mid-ground focuses on the lush, rolling hills, depicted in jeweled tones of green and blue. The sky fills nearly the entire upper half of the composition, awash in pastel pinks, blues, and whites. Two trees divide the layers and provide a visual contrapuntal to the horizontals of the landscape, a technique frequently used by the artist. The brushstrokes that define the foreground elements are distinct and contrast against the hazy, dream-like valley and sky. Garber’s expert handling of colors suggests the subtle effects of light and shadow and gives the impression the sun is shimmering through lacy leaves and grasses. A charcoal drawing (Private Collection, Pennsylvania) related to the present artwork shows a woman walking under the trees. Since Garber recorded that he repainted Near Solebury in 1918, it is possible that the canvas originally contained the figure as well. By leaving the landscape uninhabited, the artist deepens the tranquility of the scene and allows it to act as a warm memory of an idyllic day.

AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN ART
From 1871-1873, Bierstadt spent most of his time in San Francisco, California, using the city as a base to explore California. He established a studio at the top of Clay Street, overlooking the San Francisco Bay. Here, he produced many oil sketches of the Bay Area and several finished oil paintings. Throughout his career, the artist produced dozens of cloud studies, a group in which Golden Gate is included. In the present work, he focused on the low-hanging bank of fog, with the filtered sunlight highlighting the clouds’ shapes. The water, landscape, and boats are sketchily but deftly rendered. The sun has broken through the fog in the distance, bathing the far hills in light. It exemplifies his mastery at creating the illusion of depth even in the simplest of landscapes. Similar oil sketches of the Bay Area include Port Richmond, Bay of San Francisco (Christie’s, New York, December 4, 2008, Lot 68) and Alcatraz, San Francisco Bay, 1875 (Bonham’s, New York, November 22, 2010, Lot 11). At approximately the same size as Golden Gate, and also oil on paper, the focus of these oil studies is the clouds and play of light and dark to reveal their forms.

Foujita was born in Tokyo in 1886 and enjoyed a very privileged youth. He studied at the Tokyo School of Fine Arts but he was not successful academically. Foujita himself said he believed that of the 30 members of his graduating class that he was ranked 16th and one of his teachers at his graduation held up his final project, a Self Portrait as an example of “how one should not paint”. This early life embarrassment only seemed to strengthen Foujita’s resolve and encouraged him to leave his native Japan and to realize his dreams in the center of the artworld, which in the first quarter of the 20th century was Paris.

Foujita arrived in Paris in 1913 and found residence in the artistic community of Montparnasse, ready to become a Western artist. He came to Paris with a great deal of excitement and enthusiasm, but his French language skills were not advanced. According to Phyllis Birnbaum in her book Glory in a Line a French woman who knew Foujita described his French as “fluent but bad”. His lack of French did not deter him, and he became an integral part of the milieu of the roaring 20’s and was the only Japanese member of what we now call the School of Paris. He met countless iconic artists including Amedeo Modigliani, Chaim Soutine, Diego Rivera, Isadora Duncan and became friends with Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. In many ways Foujita was as well-known and equally regarded at this place and time as these Modern masters. The success he enjoyed in Paris in the 1920’s was followed by a somewhat nomadic life in the 1930’s. He spent time in New York and South America, specifically Brazil and Argentina. He then returned to Japan and during World War II supported his native Japan and created a huge number of paintings depicting Japanese soldiers during the war. Upon the defeat of the Japanese army Foujita was dishonored and scorned for his nationalism. This had a lasting effect on him, and he left Japan permanently at the end of the 1940’s and returned to Paris. Towards the end of his life in France he converted to Catholicism and changed his name to Leonard Foujita as an homage to Leonardo Da Vinci. His artistic output of this period is predominantly depictions of adolescents. Painted in 1957 when Foujita was 71 years old, Les Deux Amies is a very intimate painting in scale at 18 x 13 inches. It depicts two stoic adolescents wearing formal attire who are set in front of a crumbling classical ledge with a cloud filled sky in the background. One of the girls is slightly taller than the other and they have the appearance of sisters or close friends. They both appear very serious and almost meditative, gazing seemingly beyond us as the viewer. They each have one hand intertwined and the older girl’s right thumb and index finger is in a pose that appears she could easily be holding a flower or note. The composition and drapery are heavily influenced by works from the Italian Renaissance and the faces appear to be a reaction to 20th century surrealism, which shows Foujita’s continued interest in the West. The figures are outlined in black ink and the surface of the painting is razor thin which harkens back to his use of traditional Japanese techniques, making this work a classic example of Foujita’s melding of two different worlds.

The twilit gardens and hushed city scenes of Henri Le Sidaner’s artworks conjure a seductive, mysterious world. Throughout his career, Le Sidaner remained chiefly concerned with capturing atmospheric light and favored a subdued use of color, preferring nuanced greys and opals applied with uneven, dappled brushstrokes. Le Sidaner developed his distinctive lexicon during the 1890s, under the influence of Symbolism. On a formal level, he found a suitably harmonious, all-over treatment for his compositions in Impressionism. This dual aspect of his art was touched on by the critic, and his supporter, Camille Mauclair who wrote: “born out of Impressionism, [Le Sidaner] is as much the son of Verlaine than of the snowscenes of Monet” (C. Mauclair, Henri Le Sidaner, Paris, 1928, p. 12).

Born in 1862 in Mauritius, to Breton parents, in 1872 Le Sidaner’s family settled in Dunkirk, France. In 1882 he left for Paris to study at the École des BeauxArts under Alexandre Cabanel. However, Le Sidaner shortly after left because of artistic differences. He relocated to the Ètaples artist colony, which had a tradition of en plain air painting established by Charles-François Daubigny and of the local Deauville painter Eugène Boudin, a leading Post-Impressionist. In the late nineteenth-century numerous artists were drawn by the sand dunes, the atmospheric light and the remnants of an older France. In 1895 Le Sidaner left Étaples and moved again to Paris, likely for career reasons. The Paris stay was short but significant, as in 1898 he eloped to Bruges with Camille Navarre, to whom he was subsequently married. For Le Sidaner the years in Bruges were pivotal to his subsequent artistic career. It was here that he painted a series of nocturnes exploring the gloaming light around dusk. Although many of these artworks omit figures, around 1899, the artist executed a series of drawings that depict a standing woman and child, of which Flamande is included. The finished figure of the woman in this drawing is seen in profile and dressed in traditional Flemish costume. A simple line sketch of a small child can be seen standing within her embrace. Keen to buy a rural home where he could create a garden and work in reflective solitude, Le Sidaner purchased a property in 1904 at Gerberoy in the Picardy countryside. Once at Gerberoy, the artist rarely depicted figures again, preferring to create enigmatic moods through clues that imply human presence. He also continued to try to capture the luminosity of dusk and evening, as seen in Maison au clair de lune, Gerberoy, c. 1902. The hushed quietude of this painting is created by the subtle interplay of the warm moonlight glow against the cottage’s façade with the dark night beyond. A light from a single window is seen, the only indication of the home’s occupation. An inveterate traveler, Le Sidaner made his first trip to Venice in 1892 and the city made an everlasting impression on the artist. He visited again in 1906, when Le Quai au clair de lune, Venise, was likely executed. During this trip, Le Sidaner also completed a series of nocturne paintings: Le Grand Canal, Le Palais ducal, Le Palais Rouge and La Sérénade. These paintings were highly acclaimed for their ability to capture atmospheric lighting effects and used dappled brushwork to create a sense of the luminosity of twilight. In the present painting, the delicate blue and gray harmonies of sky, water, and land shimmer and refract, bestowing the scene with a magical, ethereal feeling. Les Cygnes, Annecy, 1936, was also created during Le Sidaner’s travels. A picturesque town in Haute-Savoie, France, Annecy is about 22 miles south of Geneva, nestled between a range of mountains. The town is sometimes called the “Venice of the Alps,” due to the three canals and the Thiou river that run through the old city and into the northern end of Lac d’Annecy. The artist conveys the scintillating light as it bounces off the canal water utilizing short, broad brushstrokes of jewel-like green-blue hues. The floating white swans in the foreground and glowing lights beyond the trees that line the canal contribute to the romantic atmosphere. Owing to the bitterly cold winters in Gerberoy, Le Sidaner wintered in Versailles beginning in 1914, the locale of Jets d’eau sur le ciel. Prosaically translated as “jets of water against the sky,” this painting reveals the artist’s evolution later in his career to choose brighter and clearer colors. The subtly worked contrasts and painterly application of pigment likewise show his return to the origins of Impressionism. The dancing water streams seem to celebrate the serenity and freedom of a mature artist who intimately understands how to achieve exquisite harmony within his paintings. This lyrical example was included in Galerie Lorenceau’s 1950 exhibition, La Poésie de l’eau, as well as in exhibitions at Galerie Charpentier and the Musée Galliéra’s 1948 retrospective of the artist.

This impressionistic scene was produced by Turner during the last decade of his life, when he was a regular guest of twice-widowed Sophia Caroline Booth at her lodgings on the Margate waterfront. The town lies downriver from London, beyond the Thames estuary, and close to the eastern-most edge of the Kent coast. Formerly a fishing port, it benefitted from the introduction of steamboats in the 1820s, which meant that it could be reached from the capital in less than a day, thereby helping to transform it into a seaside resort. Mrs. Booth’s guest house was situated at the end of a row of houses that looked directly onto the sands of Cold Harbour, a little beach beyond the harbor walls, where in the mid-1820s a new wooden jetty was constructed to permit the steamboat passengers to disembark safely, even at low tide. Rising steeply from the little promenade, the coastal path followed the cliffs up to the peak of Fort Point, which provided an uninterrupted panorama of the shore and busy shipping lanes in either direction. Turner knew Margate as a child and returned often in later life because of the character of the light, which he claimed to be the ‘loveliest in Europe.’ Repeated stays at Mrs. Booth’s establishment resulted in a growing intimacy between them, although this was something that had to be concealed in the Victorian era. More prosaically, as a healthy younger woman, she was also able to take on some of the domestic and logistical tasks that had formerly been performed by his father, who died in 1829. Turner’s health was increasingly fragile in the 1840s, as he entered his late sixties. But from Mrs. Booth’s windows he was able to survey the human activity of the foreshore, as well as the ever-changing cyclorama of light and cloud effects above the sea, without having to venture outside. As a result, he produced a significant body of sketches, watercolors, and oil paintings that in recent years has attracted new interest, as Turner made these for his own pleasure or reference, lending them the status of direct expressions of personal fascination or emotion. After Turner’s death the contents of his London studio were the subject of a protracted legal tussle in the Court of Chancery but were eventually defined as the ‘Turner Bequest’ and placed in the National Gallery. Official ignorance of his connection with Mrs. Booth meant that the works left in her Margate house, and another home that she and Turner later shared on the banks of the Thames in Chelsea, were overlooked in the 1856 settlement. However, it was nearly a decade before Mrs. Booth’s son, Daniel Pound, started to sell these items, most of which dated from Turner’s final years. The first documented owner of this view of the Margate cliffs was brewery owner Laurence Hodson (1864-1933), based at Wolverhampton in the industrial English Midlands, whose interest in Turner is typical of the newly wealthy mercantile collectors of the late nineteenth century. The album in which it came to
auction at Sotheby’s in 1978 appears to have been created some time around July 1884 by Hodson through the process of what he described as breaking up and mounting two existing sketchbooks. The material in the album fell into three distinct types: 13 studies of shipping and beach scenes on a variety of different toned papers; 14 sketches made in Germany, often on white paper prepared with a gray wash; and 17 pencil drawings very obviously from a broken-up sketchbook used during a tour of Kent. Although it might seem logical to assume the last two categories constituted the two former sketchbooks, recent research suggests that the third of these three components, the studies made in Kent, seems likely to have been previously owned by an earlier collector. Frustratingly, Hodson did not specify in his notes where and when he acquired this third batch of sketches. Nevertheless, they can almost certainly be tracked back to Daniel Pound, who had also sold Hodson the two smaller groups. The 13 coastal scenes are the most relevant to the Margate cliff subject here and span three different types of drawing paper, including blue, light buff, and light gray paper, on which the present work was executed. Each of these sheets measure roughly 5 ½ x 7 ½ inches, but they were originally part of much larger pieces of paper that Turner habitually folded into sixteen sections, enabling him to work his way steadily across, putting down rapid outlines of his observations. The paper historian Peter Bower has proposed that, although the gray paper would have been available to Turner as early as 1829, his most concentrated use of it appears to have been during the years around 1840. The two studies on gray paper from the Hodson album can be related to others in the Turner Bequest (now at Tate Britain), and in other museums and private collections, evoking incidents witnessed at Margate. Perhaps the most closely related example is a watercolor sold recently at Christie’s, New York: Figures by the Shore at Margate (January 30, 2018, Lot 85). As in the present artwork of figures struggling up the cliff, Turner evolved the image through an economic combination of chalky stabs and rubbings, coupled with judiciously placed splashes of watercolor. Placed side by side, the two images combine effectively to reconstruct the view Turner had from the windows of Mrs. Booth’s lodging-house, showing the cliffs to the east and, in the opposite direction, beyond Jarvis’s Landing Place, towards Margate’s stone harbor walls and lighthouse. Everything is captured in motion, and these private snap shots vividly bring to life a setting that Turner evidently savored. — Ian Warrell Independent Curator; currently Senior Visiting Scholar for Collections Research at the Yale Center for British Art, New Haven

Beginning in August 1838, Roberts traveled for eleven months through Egypt and the Levant (then called the Holy Land), during which he made a series of sketches that became the basis for a series of worked-up watercolors, including the present lot. On February 20th, the date of this watercolor, the artist wrote in his journal, “To-day we ascended to the summit of Sinai, which took us two hours. Near the top are two small chapels. One covers the cave where Elijah passed the night, the other is dedicated to Elias. On the summit are other two, --one where Moses received the tables of the law, the other belongs to the Mahometans, and under it is pointed out the foot-mark of the camel that carried the prophet from Sinai to Mecca. The view from the top is the most sublime that can be imagined.” (James Ballantine, The Life of David Roberts, R.A., Edinburgh, 1866, pp. 117-118) From these watercolors, Roberts made a series of lithographs in the decade after his return to England. The lithographs were executed by Louis Haghe and eventually published together as The Holy Land, Syria, Idumea, Arabia, Egypt & Nubia (6 vols., London: F.G. Moon, 1842-49). The lithograph based on the present watercolor appeared in both the 1849 and reissued volumes published in 1856, in the third volume, as plate 113.

Originally from Ferrara, Italy, Giovanni Boldini moved to Florence where, beginning in 1864, he was influenced by the Macchiaioli group—landscape painters who combined Realist and Impressionist techniques. Seduced by the Parisian lifestyle, in 1871 he made the decision to settle in the French capital, where he became one of the most appreciated artists represented by the Goupil & Cie gallery. During the 1880s, Boldini returned to portraiture, once a youthful passion. The artist depicted the protagonists of the Belle Epoque in large-format paintings that made him internationally famous among the “worldly portraitists” of his time, among them John Singer Sargent. Watercolor was Boldini’s medium of choice throughout his career, as it appealed to his colorist’s sensitivity. The charm of the present watercolor consists precisely in the magical interpenetration of color and graphic line from which springs an extraordinary vital energy. In the first two decades of the 20th Century, Boldini was fascinated by the rhythms and characters of his beloved Paris, which he depicted with his free and masterful drawing. This is likely when Souper Chez Maxim’s was executed, as evidenced by the cloche hat worn by the woman in the center of the composition, a type of hat that was fashionable at this time. Boldini is firmly on the stage of the modern Parisian metropolis, of which he savors the vitality, the pleasantness of life, and the fragrant beauty of the young women who crowd the social gatherings (compare with the oil paintings, of a similar subject included in Piero Dini & Francesca Dini, Giovanni Boldini (1842-1931): Catalogue Raisonné, Turin 2002, Vol. 2, Vol. 3, nos. 1163-1164). In 1926 Boldini met the Piedmontese journalist Emilia Cardona. They married in 1929, not without scandal, due to the enormous difference in age (the artist was 87). If the female figure portrayed on the sheet verso is really the thirty-year old Emilia, as suggested, it is likely Boldini reused this sheet after 1926.

133 Giovanni Fattori (ITALIAN, 1825-1908)
Bozzetto della lecceto oil on panel initialed G.F. (lower right); inscribed Giovanni Fattori and titled (verso) 4 ¾ x 3 inches. Property from a Private Collection, Taos, New Mexico We would like to thank Marco Bertoli for his assistance in cataloguing this lot. Provenance: Sold: Sotheby’s, New York, May 23, 1985, Lot 296 Acquired directly from the above sale by the present owner $6,000 - 8,000
The present lot is a sketch for the finished oil on panel Ulivi argentati, from the Mario Galli collection (Giovanni Malesci, Illustrated catalog of oil paintings by Giovanni Fattori, Novara, 1961, no. 501, p. 220). Dated by Malesci to circa 18901900, the finished oil painting was included in a 1925 exhibition in Florence on the occasion of the centenary of the painter’s birth. A perfect correspondence emerges when the present artwork and the finished painting are compared. The oil closely follows the sketched composition, with the same position of the trunks and gnarled branches of the olive trees, as well as the identical light that hits the trees and makes the shadows stretch toward the right. The scene is executed “dal vero,” or en plein air, and is charged with a suggestive atmosphere through the play of light that filters through the foliage of the forest. 133

This sketch reveals the artist’s typical use of counterpoint of light and dark tones and the skillful use of the different drafting and density of the chromatic mixture. The characters of synthesis and simplicity were sought by the artist in a systemic way in order to arouse emotions not by the content but for the chosen quality of the form. Here, the calm and diffused brightness enhances the silent stillness of the scene and accentuates the evocative qualities of the landscape.

134 Giovanni Fattori (ITALIAN, 1825-1908)
Bosco alle Cascine, c. 1880s watercolor and graphite on paper signed Giovanni Fattori, titled, and inscribed (verso) 7 ½ x 13 inches. Property from a Private Collection, Taos, New Mexico We would like to thank Marco Bertoli for his assistance in cataloguing this lot. Provenance: Mario Galli, Florence, Italy Exhibited: Milan, Galleria Carini, Mostra vendita di dipinit dell’800, January 28 – February 14, 1954, no. 24, pl. 5
The Cascine is one the largest Florentine parks and was an inexhaustible source of inspiration for the artist. Fattori painted en plein air several different views of the shaded avenues of leafy trees, capturing the atmosphere as the light and the seasons change. An extraordinary production made over several years includes the artworks Bosco alle Cascine, 1870-1880, (Alessandro Magnelli Collection); Le Cascine, 1865-1875 (Mario Galli Collection); and Le vecchia Cascine, 18651875 (Luigi Spinelli Collection). Similar compositions to the present watercolor include Alberi alle Cascine, 1860-1870 (Adolfo Santarini Collection) and the Viale alle Cascine, 1870-1875. In these latter works, the painter focuses on the study of trees made through “spots” of different shades of green. Above all he focuses on the chiaroscuro of the light that filters through the branches of the trees, recreating their rustling and airy sensation. An inscription on the verso of the present watercolor bears witness to its undoubted pedigree, translating as: “In the Collection Mario Galli approves Giovanni Malesci.” A Florentine sculptor, Mario Galli (1877-1946) collected paintings by the greatest Macchiaioli painters, from Signorini to Borrani, from Abbati to D’Ancona, and he became one of the most important collectors of Giovanni Fattori. Giovanni Malesci was a pupil of Giovanni Fattori from 1903 to 1908. As one of the artist’s greatest supporters and connoisseurs, Malesci’s 1961 catalogue raisonné on the Livorno painter remains to this day the fundamental reference text for Fattori’s work.

GUIDE FOR PROSPECTIVE SELLERS Evaluation of Property If you have property you wish to sell, please call our Consignment Department at 312.280.1212 to arrange for a consultation. At that time, you may make an appointment to bring your property or photographs, along with any other pertinent information, to Hindman LLC and we will be happy to provide you with complimentary estimates and advice. If you have a large collection, an appointment may be made to evaluate the property on-site. Fees for on-site visits may vary.
Bidding Increments Bidding generally opens at half the low estimate and advances in the following order, although the auctioneer may vary the bidding increments during the course of the auction. The standard bidding increments are:
Standard Commission Rates Our standard rate of commission is equal to ten percent (10%) of the hammer price on each lot sold for $5,001 or more; and twenty-five percent (25%) of the hammer price on each lot sold for less than $5,001, with a minimum commission of $75 per lot sold. If your property fails to reach the reserve price agreed upon between you and Hindman LLC, you may be obligated to pay a reduced commission rate of five percent (5%) of the reserve price.
$0 - $500 ........................................ $25 $500 - $1,000 ..................................... $50 $1,000 - $2,000 ................................... $100 $2,000 - $5,000 ................................... $250 $5,000 - $10,000 ................................. $500 $10,000 - $20,000 .............................. $1,000 $20,000 - $50,000 .............................. $2,500 $50,000 - $100,000 ............................ $5,000 $100,000 - $200,000 .......................... $10,000 Above > $200,000 ....

Shipping Arrangements Hindman LLC can advise you as to how to have your property delivered to our galleries. Packing, shipping and insurance are payable by the seller. In certain instances, packing and shipping costs may be paid by Hindman LLC and deducted from the proceeds of the sale. We may recommend packers and shippers, but we are not responsible for their acts or omissions.
In-House Bidding Our auctions are free and open to the public with no obligation for attendees to bid. Registration requires your full contact information, photo identification, credit card information, your signature and agreement to the Conditions of Sale.. If you are the successful bidder, your paddle number and the hammer price will be announced by the auctioneer.
Appraisals Appraisals can be arranged for insurance, donation, estate tax, family division or other purposes. Appraisal fees vary according to circumstances. Please contact our Estates and Appraisals Department at 312.280.1212 for further information.
Live Bid Online Hindman LLC allows absentee and live bidding through our website at hindmanauctions.com as well as absentee and live bidding through third party online bidding providers which vary by sale.

GUIDE FOR PROSPECTIVE BUYERS Conditions of Sale Hindman LLC encourages all prospective buyers to read the Conditions of Sale printed in this catalogue. Exhibitions Hindman LLC recommends that all prospective buyers attend the pre-sale exhibition prior to the auction. Staff members are available at our pre-sale exhibitions to advise prospective buyers on particular objects or on any aspect of the bidding process. Estimates Hindman LLC provides catalogue descriptions and pre-auction estimates for each lot included in the sale. These estimates are a guide for prospective bidders. They are not definitive. All pre-sale estimates are subject to revision. Condition Reports We are happy to provide a condition report for lots with a low estimate of $300 and above. Nevertheless, intending buyers are reminded that condition reports are statements of our opinion only, and that each lot is sold “AS IS,” per our Conditions of Sale, as outlined in the back of this catalogue. All lots should be viewed personally by prospective buyers or their agents to evaluate the condition of the property offered for sale due to the highly subjective nature of condition reports.
Absentee Bidding If you are unable to attend an auction, you may place an absentee bid, either through our website at hindmanauctions.com or through the bid form provided at the back of this catalogue. An absentee bid is the highest price you are willing to pay exclusive of buyer’s premium and applicable sales tax. Hindman LLC will exercise absentee bids at no additional charge. Absentee bids are always confidential, and bids are executed at the lowest price possible by the auctioneer according to reserves and competing bids. Telephone Bidding You may register telephone bid requests either through our website at hindmanauctions.com or through the bid form provided at the back of this catalogue. Upon registering for a telephone bid, you will be called on the day of the auction by a Hindman representative approximately five lots before your item is scheduled to be sold. They will communicate to you the bidding activity and will relay your bids to the auctioneer at your discretion. Please note we can only accept telephone bids for lots with a low estimate of $300 or above unless otherwise noted online. Telephone bids may be requested up to 2 hours prior to the auction start time. Tax Exempt Notice Lots marked with an asterisk (*) are tax exempt as permitted by law. Updated 4/21
Bidding at Auction The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser. In addition to the hammer price, the buyer agrees to pay Hindman LLC a buyer’s premium as well as any applicable taxes.

CONDITIONS OF SALE These Conditions of Sale set out the terms upon which Hindman LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) sells property by lot in this catalogue. You agree to be bound by these terms by registering to bid and/or by bidding in our auction. A glossary at the end defines the words in bold type.
A. BEFORE THE AUCTION
1. LOT DESCRIPTIONS AND WARRANTIES Our description of a lot, any statement of a lot’s condition, and any other oral or written statement about a lot—such as its nature, condition, artist, period, materials, dimensions, weight, exhibition or publication history, or provenance—are our opinion and shall not to be relied upon by you as a statement of fact. Except for the limited authenticity warranty contained in paragraphs E and F below, we do not provide any guarantee of our description or the nature of a lot. 2. CONDITION The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold “AS IS,” in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot’s condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition and may not include all faults, inherent defects, restoration, alteration, or adaptation. Likewise, images in our catalogue may not depict a lot accurately, as colors and shades may appear different in print or on screen than on physical inspection. We are not responsible for providing you with a description of a lot’s condition in the catalogue or in a condition report. 3. VIEWING LOTS We offer pre-auction viewings, either scheduled or by appointment, that are free of charge. If you believe that the catalogue description or condition reports are not sufficient, we suggest you inspect a lot personally or through a knowledgeable representative before you bid on a lot to make sure that you accept the description and its condition. We recommend you hire a professional adviser if you are not familiar with how to address the nature or condition of an object. 4. ESTIMATES Estimates of a lot account for the condition, rarity, quality, and provenance of the object and are based upon prices realized for similar objects in past auctions. Neither you nor anyone else may rely on our estimates as a prediction or guarantee of the actual selling price of a lot or its value for any other purpose. Estimates do not include the buyer’s premium, any applicable taxes, and any other applicable charges. 5. WITHDRAWAL We may, in our sole discretion, withdraw a lot from auction at any time prior to or during the sale and shall have no liability to you for our decision to withdraw.
B. REGISTERING TO BID
1. NEW BIDDERS New bidders must register at least twenty-four (24) hours before an auction and must provide us with documentation of their identity. (a) Individuals must provide photo identification (driver’s license, non-driver ID card, or passport) and, if not shown on the photo identification, proof of current address (a current utility bill or bank statement). (b) Corporate clients must provide a Certificate of Incorporation or its equivalent bearing the company’s name and registered address, together with documentary proof of directors and beneficial owners. (c) Trusts, partnerships, offshore companies, and other business entities must contact us in advance of the auction to discuss our requirements. If we are not satisfied with the information you provide us in our bidder identification and other registration procedures, we may refuse to register you to bid, and if you make a successful bid, we may cancel the contract for sale between you and the seller. New bidders may be required to provide us with a financial reference and/or a deposit before we allow them to bid. 2. RETURNING BIDDERS If you have not bought anything from us recently, then we may require you to register as a new bidder, as described in the paragraph above. Please contact us at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the auction. 3. BIDDING FOR ANOTHER PERSON If you are bidding as an agent on behalf of another person, your principal must be a registered bidder and must provide us with written authorization
120 A M E R I C A N A N D E U R O P E A N A R T
allowing you to bid. You, as the agent, shall accept personal liability to pay the purchase price and all other sums due unless we have agreed in writing before the auction that you are acting as an agent on behalf of your principal and that we will only seek payment from your principal. 4. BIDDING IN THE SALEROOM If you wish to bid in the saleroom, you must first acquire a bidding paddle at least thirty (30) minutes before the auction. 5. OUR BIDDING SERVICES We offer the following bidding services as a convenience to our clients, subject to these Conditions of Sale. We shall not be responsible for any error, omission, or failure, human or otherwise, in providing these services. (a) Phone Bids: You must contact us at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the auction to arrange a phone bid. We will accept bids by telephone for lots only if our staff is available to take the bids. We agree that we may record telephone bids. (b) Internet Bids: You can bid in our live sales via our bidding platform or through third-party bidding sites. (c) Written Bids: You can find a Written Bid Form in the back of our catalogues, at the auction location, or online at www.hindmanauctions.com. We must receive your completed Written Bid Form at least twenty-four (24) hours before the auction. We will endeavor to execute written bids at the lowest possible price consistent with the reserve. If you make a written bid on a lot that does not have a reserve and there is no higher bid than yours, we will bid on your behalf at approximately fifty percent (50%) of the low estimate or, if lower, the amount of your bid. The first written bid we receive of those for identical amounts will be given priority over other bids. 6. CREDIT CARD AUTHORIZATION HOLD When you register to bid you may be asked to provide us with a valid credit card number. You authorize us to verify the validity of the credit card by placing a $100 authorization hold on the card that will remain until it falls off, usually within 48 hours.
C. DURING THE AUCTION
1. BIDDING IN THE AUCTION (a) Live Auctions. We will appoint an individual auctioneer to administer a live auction. The auctioneer may accept bids from (a) written bids left with us by bidders before the auction; (b) bidders in the saleroom; (c) telephone bidders; and (d) Internet bidders. Bidding generally starts below the low estimate and increases in steps, called bid increments. The auctioneer will decide at his/ her sole option where the bidding should start and the bid increments. Bid increments may vary from auction to auction. You shall comply with all laws and regulations in force that govern your bidding. (b) Online-only Auctions. Bids may only be submitted on our website or through third-party bidding sites between the dates and times specified in the lot’s description. Your bid is submitted once you place and confirm your bid amount. You agree that a bid is final once it is placed and that you may never amend or revoke your bid. You are fully responsible for any errors you make in bidding. Bidding generally opens at or below the low estimate and increases in steps (bidding increments) to be determined in Hindman’s sole discretion. 2. AUCTIONEER’S DISCRETION The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion to (a) admit a bidder into or remove a bidder from the saleroom or online auction; (b) accept or refuse any bid; (c) change the order of the lots in the auction; (d) move the bidding backward or forward; (e) withdraw any lot from the auction; (f) divide any lot or combine any two or more lots; (g) reopen or continue the bidding even after the hammer has fallen; and (h) continue the bidding, determine the successful bidder, cancel the sale of the lot, or reoffer and resell any lot in the event that there is an error or dispute related to bidding or the application of the reserve, whether during or after the auction. You must provide us with written notice within three (3) business days of the date of the auction if you believe that the auctioneer has accepted the successful bid in error. The auctioneer will consider the claim and decide in good faith if the sale of the lot is final, whether he/she will cancel the sale of the lot, or whether he/she will reoffer and resell the lot. The auctioneer’s decision in exercise of this discretion is final. This paragraph does not in any way affect our ability to cancel the sale of a lot under other applicable provisions of these Conditions of Sale, including the rights of cancellation set forth in sections B(1), D(6), E(2), and G(1). 3. BIDDING ON BEHALF OF THE SELLER The auctioneer may, at his/her sole option, bid on behalf of the seller up to one bidding increment before the reserve by making either consecutive or responsive bids. The auctioneer will not identify these as bids made on behalf of the seller. If a lot is offered without reserve, the auctioneer will open the bidding at approximately fifty percent (50%) of the lot’s low estimate; where
necessary, will lower the asking bid until a bid is received; and will solicit higher bids from that amount. If there are no bids on a lot, the auctioneer may deem the lot unsold. 4. SUCCESSFUL BIDS AND INVOICES Subject to paragraph C(2), the contract of sale between the seller and the successful bidder is formed when the final bid is accepted and the auctioneer’s hammer strikes. The successful bid price is the hammer price, and we will issue an invoice only to the registered bidder who made the successful bid. While we send out invoices by mail and/or email after the auction, we shall not be responsible for telling you whether your bid was successful. You should contact us immediately after the auction to find out the success of your bid in order to avoid having to pay storage charges.
D. AFTER THE AUCTION
1. THE BUYER’S PREMIUM In addition to the hammer price, the successful bidder agrees to pay us a buyer’s premium on the hammer price of each lot sold. On all lots, we charge twenty-five percent (25%) of the hammer price up to and including $400,000; twenty percent (20%) of any amount in excess of $400,001 up to and including $4,000,000; and twelve percent (12%) of any amount in excess of $4,000,001. If the bidder bids through a third-party platform the bidder agrees to pay us a surcharge equal to the fee levied by the third-party platform. The third-party platform fee is in addition to the buyer’s premium. 2. TAXES The successful bidder is responsible for any applicable taxes, including any sales or use tax or equivalent tax wherever such taxes may arise on the hammer price, the buyer’s premium, and/or any other charges related to the lot. A sales or use tax is dependent upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, our volume of sale and the place of delivery of the lot, regardless of the nationality or citizenship of the successful bidder. The applicable sales tax rate will be determined based upon the state, county, or locale to which the lot will be shipped or where it is picked-up in person. We collect sales tax in states where legally required. 3. MAKING PAYMENT (a) Immediately following the auction, you must pay the purchase price, consisting of the hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium, plus any applicable duties and sales, use, or other applicable taxes. Payment is due no later than by the end of the seventh (7th) calendar day following the date of the auction, which we refer to as the due date. (b) We will only accept payment from the registered successful bidder. Once issued, we cannot change the buyer’s name on an invoice or reissue the invoice in a different name. (c) You must pay for lots in US dollars in one of the following ways: (i) Wire transfer. (ii) Bank checks: You must make these payable to Hindman LLC, and we may impose other conditions. Once we have deposited your check, property cannot be released until five (5) business days have passed. (iii) Personal checks: You must make these payable to Hindman LLC, and they must be drawn from US dollar accounts from a US bank. The property will not be released until the check has cleared and the funds are received by us. (d) You must quote your invoice number when making a payment. All payments sent by post must be sent to Hindman LLC, 1338 West Lake Street, Chicago, IL 60607, ATTN: Client Accounting Department. 4. TRANSFERRING OWNERSHIP TO YOU You will not own the lot and title will not pass to you until we have received full payment in good funds of the purchase price, even in circumstances where we have released the lot to you. 5. TRANSFERRING RISK TO YOU Unless we have agreed otherwise with you, the risk in and responsibility for the lot will transfer to you from whichever is the earlier of the following: (a) when you collect the lot; or (b) the end of the thirtieth (30th) day following the date of the auction or, if earlier, the date the lot is taken into care by a third-party warehouse. 6. YOUR FAILURE TO PAY If you fail to pay us the purchase price in full in good funds by the due date, we will be entitled to do one or more of the following (as well as enforce any other rights and remedies we have by law) at our sole discretion: (a) We can charge interest from the due date at a rate of up to one and onehalf percent (1.5%) per month on the unpaid amount due. (b) We can cancel the sale of the lot and sell the lot again, publicly or privately, on such terms as we believe appropriate, in which case you must pay us any shortfall between the amount you owe us and the resale price, plus all costs, expenses, losses, damages, and legal fees we incur due to the cancellation. (c) We can pay the seller the amount due to them, in which case you acknowledge and understand that we will have all the seller’s rights to pursue you for such amount.
(d) We can hold you legally responsible for the amount you owe us and bring legal proceedings against you to recover the amount owed by you, plus other losses, interest, legal fees, and costs as allowed by law. (e) We can reveal your identity and contact details to the seller. (f) We can reject any bids made by or on behalf of you in future auctions or require you to provide us with a deposit before accepting any bids. (g) We can exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security over any property in our possession owned by you, whether by way of pledge, security interest, or in any other way as permitted by the law of the place where such property is located. You will be deemed to have granted such security to us and we may retain such property as collateral security for your obligations to us. (h) We can take any other action we deem necessary or appropriate. 7. SHIPPING, COLLECTION, AND STORAGE (a) You must collect purchased lots within thirty (30) days of the auction. We can assist in making shipping arrangements by suggesting art handlers, packers, transporters, or experts, but you must arrange all transport and shipping with them, and we are not responsible for their acts, failure to act, or neglect. (b) If you do not collect any purchased lot within thirty (30) days following the auction, we may, at our sole option, (i) charge you storage and insurance costs; (ii) move the lot to another Hindman location or to a third-party warehouse, whereupon we will charge you transport costs, insurance costs, and administration fees for doing so, and you will be subject to the third-party storage warehouse’s standard terms and responsible for paying its standard fees and costs; or (iii) sell the lot in any commercially reasonable way we think appropriate. (c) In accordance with applicable state law, if you have paid for the lot in full but you do not collect the lot within the time specified by the law of the state where the auction takes place, we may charge you state sales tax for the lot. (d) Nothing in this paragraph is intended to limit our rights under paragraph D(6). 8. EXPORTING, IMPORTING, AND ENDANGERED SPECIES (a) The shipping of a lot is affected by United States export laws or the import laws of other countries. If you are outside the United States, then local laws may prevent you from importing a lot. You alone are responsible for seeking advice prior to bidding and meeting the requirements of any law or regulation applying to the export or import of a lot. (b) Lots made of or including (regardless of the percentage) endangered and other protected species of wildlife—such as, among other things, ivory, tortoiseshell, crocodile skin, rhinoceros horn, whalebone, certain species of coral, and Brazilian rosewood—may be subject to export controls in the US and import controls in other countries. You should check the relevant wildlife laws and regulations before bidding on any lot containing wildlife material if you plan to export the lot from the United States, import the lot into another country, or ship the lot between states. Your purchase of a lot containing endangered and other protected species of wildlife is at your own risk, and you shall be responsible for any scientific test or other reports required for export from the United States or for shipment between states. We will not cancel your purchase and refund the purchase price if your lot may not be exported, imported, or shipped between states, or if it is seized for any reason by a government authority. It is your responsibility to determine and satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations relating to import, export, and/or interstate shipping of a lot containing endangered and other protected species of wildlife.
E. WARRANTIES
1. SELLER’S WARRANTIES For each lot, the seller gives a warranty that the seller (a) is the owner of the lot or a joint owner of the lot acting with the permission of the other co-owners or, if the seller is not the owner or a joint owner of the lot, has the permission of the owner to sell the lot or the right to do so by law; and (b) has the right to transfer ownership of the lot to the buyer without any restrictions or claims by anyone else. If either of the above warranties are incorrect, the seller shall not have to pay more than the purchase price (as defined in paragraph D(3) above) paid by you to us. The seller will not be responsible to you for any reason for loss of profits or business, expected savings, loss of opportunity or interest, costs, damages, other damages, or expenses. The seller gives no warranty other than as set out above, and as far as the seller is allowed by law, all warranties from the seller to you, and all other obligations upon the seller that may be added to this agreement by law, are excluded. No employee or agent of Hindman is authorized to make a representation or provide other information, whether orally or in writing, that amends the seller’s warranties or creates an additional warranty on behalf of the seller with respect to a lot. Any such representation, other information, or additional warranty shall be null and void.

2. OUR LIMITED AUTHENTICITY WARRANTY Our limited authenticity warranty, which lasts for one (1) year from the date of a live auction or three (3) months from an online only auction, is that the lots in our sales are authentic as defined in paragraph H, below. You must notify Hindman regarding concerns of authenticity in writing within one (1) year of the date of a live auction or within three (3) months of the date of an online only auction. Following receipt of that written notification, subject to the terms below, Hindman will refund the purchase price paid by the client. The terms of this limited authenticity warranty are as follows: (a) It will be honored for claims notified in writing within a period of one (1) year from the date of a live auction or three (3) months from an online only auction. After such time, we will not be obligated to honor the limited authenticity warranty. (b) It is given only for information shown in UPPERCASE type in the first line of the catalogue description (the Heading). It does not apply to any information other than that in the Heading, even if it is shown in UPPERCASE type. (c) It does not apply to any Heading or part of a Heading that is qualified. “Qualified” means limited by a clarification in a lot’s catalogue description or by the use in a Heading of one of the terms listed in the definition of “qualified” provided in paragraph H, below. Qualified Headings are not covered at all by this limited authenticity warranty. (d) It applies to the Heading as amended by any saleroom notice. (e) It does not apply where scholarship has developed since the auction, leading to a change in generally accepted opinion. Further, it does not apply if the Heading either matched the generally accepted opinion of experts at the date of the auction or drew attention to any conflict of opinion. (f) It does not apply if the lot can only be shown not to be authentic by a scientific process that, on the date we published the catalogue, was not available or generally accepted for use, was unreasonably expensive or impractical, or was likely to have damaged the lot. (g) Its benefit is only available to the original buyer shown on the invoice for the lot, issued at the time of the sale, and only if, on the date of the notice of claim, the original buyer is the full owner of the lot and the lot is free from any claim, interest, or restriction by anyone else. The benefit of this limited authenticity warranty may not be transferred by the original buyer to anyone else. (h) In order to make a claim under the limited authenticity warranty, you must (i) give us written notice of your claim within one (1) year of the date of a live auction or three (3) months from an online only auction ; (ii) at our option, pay for and provide us with the written opinions of two recognized experts in the field, mutually agreed upon by you and us, confirming that the lot is not authentic (we reserve the right to obtain additional opinions at our expense); and (iii) return the lot at your expense to the saleroom from which you bought it in the condition it was in at the time of sale. (i) Your only right under this limited authenticity warranty is to cancel the sale and receive a refund of the purchase price paid by you to us. We will not, under any circumstances, be required to pay you more than the purchase price, nor will we be liable for any loss of profits or business, loss of opportunity or value, expected savings or interest, costs, damages, other damages, or expenses. (j) No employee or agent of Hindman is authorized to make a representation or provide additional information, whether orally or in writing, that amends the limited authenticity warranty or creates an additional warranty with respect to a lot. Any such representation, other information, or additional warranty shall be null and void. 3. ADDITIONAL WARRANTY FOR BOOKS If the lot is a book, then we give an additional warranty to the original buyer shown on the invoice for the lot issued at the time of the sale in the following circumstances: (a) We will refund the purchase price to the original buyer if we, in our sole discretion, are convinced that the book is defective in text or illustration, subject to the following terms: (i) This additional warranty does not apply to (A) the absence of blanks, half titles, tissue guards, or advertisements; or damage in respect of bindings, stains, spotting, marginal tears, or other defects not affecting the completeness of the text or illustration; (B) drawings, autographs, letters or manuscripts, signed photographs, music, atlases, maps, or periodicals; (C) books not identified by title; (D) lots sold without a printed estimate; (E) books that are described in the catalog as sold not subject to return; or (F) defects stated in any condition report or announced at the time of sale. (ii) To make a claim under this additional warranty, you must give written details of the defect within twenty-one (21) days of the date of the sale and return the lot within twenty-one (21) days of the date of the sale to the saleroom at which you bought it in the same condition as at the time of sale. (iii) Paragraphs E(2)(b), (c), (d), (e), (h), and (i) also apply to a claim under this additional warranty. (c) No employee or agent of Hindman is authorized to make a representation or provide other information, whether orally or in writing, that amends the additional warranty for books or creates an additional warranty with respect to a lot. Any such representation, other information, or additional warranty shall be null and void. 122 A M E R I C A N A N D E U R O P E A N A R T
4. JEWELRY (a) Colored gemstones (such as rubies, sapphires, and emeralds) may have been treated to improve their appearance through methods such as heating and/or various clarity enhancements. These methods are considered common by the international jewelry trade but may make a gemstone more fragile and/or cause the gemstone to require special care over time. (b) All types of gemstones may have been improved by some method. You may request a gemological report for any item that does not have a report if the request is made to us at least three (3) weeks before the date of the auction and you pay the fee for the report. (c) We do not obtain a gemological report for every gemstone sold in our auctions. When we do get gemological reports from internationally accepted gemological laboratories, such reports are described in the catalogue. Reports from American gemological laboratories describe any improvement or treatment to the gemstone. Reports from European gemological laboratories describe any improvement or treatment only if we request that they do so, but they do confirm when no improvement or treatment has been made. Because of differences in approach and technology, laboratories may not agree on whether a gemstone has been treated, the amount of treatment, or whether that treatment is permanent. The gemological laboratories only report on the improvements or treatments known to them at the date they make the report. (d) For jewelry sales, estimates are based on the information in any gemological report. If no report is available, assume that the gemstones may have been treated or enhanced. 5. WATCHES AND CLOCKS (a) Almost all clocks and watches are repaired in their lifetime and may include parts that are not original. We do not give a warranty that any individual component part of any watch is authentic. Watchbands described as “associated” are not part of the original watch and may not be authentic. Clocks may be sold without pendulums, weights, or keys. (b) As collectors’ watches often have very fine and complex mechanisms, you are responsible for any general service, change of battery, or further repair work that may be necessary. We do not give a warranty that any watch is in good working order. Certificates are not available unless described in the catalogue. (c) Most wristwatches have been opened to find out the type and quality of movement. For that reason, wristwatches with water-resistant cases may not be waterproof, and we recommend you have them checked by a competent watchmaker before use. (d) Many of the watches offered for sale in this catalogue are pictured with straps made of endangered or protected animal materials such as alligator or crocodile skin.
