journal Arts Quarterly, taught continuing education programs at the University of New Orleans and Tulane University, and wrote numerous exhibition catalogues as well as articles for such national publications as The Magazine Antiques, Veranda and Southern Living. Amid all this, he also wrote tens of thousands of catalogue descriptions for us. Glass, porcelain, mirrors, boxes, lamps, bronzes, frames, tapestries, continental furniture: his expertise was limitless. It is no exaggeration to say that it has taken half a dozen people working overtime for weeks, poring over books and scouring the Internet, to accomplish for this sale what Mr. Keefe could have done in a few nights, equipped with no more than a pen and his encyclopedic knowledge. (That, and a steady supply of Chinese food and Coke Zeros.)

In Memoriam John Webster Keefe (1942-2011) The staff of New Orleans Auction Galleries, Inc. joins the city’s art and antiques community in their shock and sadness upon the sudden death last month of John W. Keefe, curator of decorative arts at the New Orleans Museum of Art and long-time cataloguer of the same for the New Orleans and St. Charles Auction Galleries. Mr. Keefe (he was never addressed otherwise here at the galleries – a sign of the innate respect he engendered) was a native of Somers, New York, and educated at Deerfield Academy (1959) and Yale University (B.A., 1963; M.A., 1965). He held posts at the Toledo Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Grand Rapids Art Museum, before coming to New Orleans in 1983 to serve as the RosaMary Foundation Curator of the Decorative Arts at the New Orleans Museum of Art, a position he held until his death. During his time at NOMA, he organized 112 exhibitions, wrote over 120 articles for their

But connoisseurship was merely one of his gifts. He was extraordinarily generous with his expertise, ever-ready to share his great wealth of knowledge with any and all, to instruct and to enlighten. He saw the history of the world in its decorative arts, and he was eager to share that history. He was also generous with his time, somehow nearly always managing to accommodate the frequently preposterous deadlines of the auction business despite his already busy schedule. No one who knew Mr. Keefe, though, can speak of him without mentioning his great sense of humor. Sharp and sophisticated, his quick mind served a wit that was, by turns, whimsical (a dirty polishing cloth accidentally left on a table was dutifully catalogued as “a soiled terrycloth towel dating from the imprisonment of Queen Marie-Antoinette of France in the Conciergerie, Paris, fourth quarter 18th century, hurled into a corner by the enraged Queen and then retrieved by a loyalist charwoman”), arch (a bit of Art Deco excess was assigned the spurious provenance “Norma Desmond, Hollywood, California”), and bawdy (Grand Tour obelisks were not safe from description in terms, politely put, less than wholesome). His ability to write about objets d’art in a style both grand and graceful (and occasionally gelastic) will not soon be equaled. We would like to extend our sincere condolences to Mr. Keefe’s family, his friends and to the staff of New Orleans Museum of Art. We share your feelings of unutterable sadness on his passing, and know too well the void his death leaves behind. He was our colleague and our friend, and we will miss him. Goodbye and thank you, Mr. Keefe.

Featuring Property From:

The Choctaw Plantation, Natchez, Mississippi Choctaw was built in Natchez in 1836 for James Neibert (ca. 1786-1837), a contractor in partnership with Peter Gemmell. It was designed by Scottish immigrant architect James Hardie, who was, not coincidentally, the superintendent of construction for Neibert & Gemmell. The three-story brick structure followed the Federal style established by older Natchez homes, but added then-popular Greek Revival details to create a prototypical Natchez design. It has a long central two-story portico flanked by parlor rooms, similar to Rosalie (but with a heavier Ionic portico reflecting the Greek Revival influence). It is fronted by a grand columned entrance with wheat sheaf balustrade along the monumental stairs, made all the more impressive by its towering height, achieved by the full ground level basement. Neibert was bankrupted by the Panic of 1837, and died intestate that year. The house was purchased by Alvarez Fisk (ca. 1783-1853), a wealthy cotton factor and bibliophile whose collection, with that of his

brother Abijah, formed the core of both the Natchez and New Orleans Public Libraries. After Fisk’s death the Neibert-Fisk house (as Choctaw is also known) served as both a private residence and, for a time, as the campus of the Stanton College for Women. The building was restored in the 20th century by the American Legion and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979 and to the list of Mississippi Landmarks in 1985 by the Mississippi State Department of Archives and History. Most recently, the property served as an elegant bed and breakfast which showcased a magnificent collection of period antebellum and Civil Warera furnishings, including several mahogany or rosewood beds, chests, secretaries, tables and chairs, period lighting including argand lamps, girandoles and chandeliers, and a wide assortment of complementary prints, glass, porcelain, silver and rugs. New Orleans Auction Galleries, Inc. is proud to offer this important collection from one of the grandest homes of our neighbor Natchez, Mississippi.


beginning their first. He opened an antique shop in Newport, which he soon moved to Natchez, Mississippi, a city that would become his home off and on for the next forty years. He would live in other places – New Orleans, New York, Savannah – and work in many more, but it was in Natchez that he was a fixture, profiled in Southern Living as one of the city’s treasures, alongside the city’s grand historic homes. He decorated many of those landmarks, including Wigwam, The Burn, Glenburnie, Glen Auburn, Arrighi House, Ravennaside, Monmouth and his piece-de-resistance the Prentiss Club, a turn-of-the century gentlemen’s club which had been left almost to ruin before he restored the entire building. He also operated Harper’s Antiques and Interiors in New Orleans, where he also restored and decorated the Maddox-Brennan House on Prytania Street and the iconic “Wedding Cake House” on St. Charles Avenue. His work was featured in Architectural Digest, Southern Living and Veranda and on national networks HGTV, CNN and A&E.

The Collection of Reuben L. “Buzz” Harper, Natchez, Mississippi “The only real elegance is in the mind. If you’ve got that, the rest really comes from it.” –Diana Vreeland Vreeland could have been speaking of interior designer and antiques dealer Reuben L. “Buzz” Harper when she said that, and – who knows? – she even might have been; Buzz would have been no stranger to her circle. He had his own unique style that shone brightly in every aspect of his long life and which never failed to leave an impression on those who had the privilege to know him. Harper was a native of Newport, a small town on the edge of the Arkansas Delta. He was educated locally, at Newport High School and then the University of Arkansas, after which he almost immediately entered into politics, serving first as Jackson County Clerk and then as County Judge; at the time the youngest County Judge in the history of the state. After finishing his second term as Judge, he began a second career at an age when most men were barely

Buzz’s style was grand and opulent, rich and regal. “Too much is a great place to start,” he once said. But there was no hint of artifice in that style, which seemed to emanate from the man himself. Patrician and elegant, Buzz was inevitably the focus of any gathering he attended. Toweringly tall, dressed in ice cream-colored suits with bright bowties, his abundant mane of stark white hair tied neatly into a ponytail, he was a sartorial landmark, named the New Orleans Times-Picayune/Junior League Best Dressed Man of 2000. Yet beyond the grandeur of his designs and the flamboyance of his appearance was a genuine bonhomie and gentility: a beguiling charm at once charismatic and modest. He was, simply put, a True Southern Gentleman – alas, perhaps one of the last. New Orleans Auction Galleries is proud to offer items from the personal collection of this unique man. Among the treasures to be found there are a large and opulent collection of Continental art, furniture and decorative arts (including many handsome bronze and enamel boxes), a fine selection of garden statuary and furniture, many pieces of fine silver (from an antebellum American ewer to a Tsarist Russian claret jug), and a surprising collection of beautiful liturgical art, including a reliquary containing a True Relic of St. Alban.

In the early 1700’s, German alchemist Johann Friedrich Bottger (1682‑1719) was kept prisoner by August the Strong, King of Poland, at Albrechtsburg Castle in Meissen. Bottger was originally imprisoned because he claimed he could turn any material into gold. Bottger failed, but discovered another formula that had been sought in Europe for decades: the recipe for “true” or hardpaste porcelain. Europeans had to rely on costly imports of Chinese and Japanese porcelain to satisfy their desire for this delicate material. Augustus recognized the importance of keeping this discovery a secret from others and founded the Meissen porcelain factory near Dresden.

903 Fine and Rare Set of Eight New Orleans Creole Coin (.900) Silver Tablespoons, dated 1815, by Pierre Lamothe (ca. 1770-ca. 1823), in the pattern traditionally known in French as “Uniplat” and in English as “Mid-Rib Fiddle”, monogrammed and dated on the reverse “KAL/ 1815”, l. 8‑1/4”, 16.78 total t. oz. Pierre Lamothe was born in St. Marc, San Domingue (now Haiti) around 1770 to Jean Lamothe and his wife Claudine Dampeuse (sometimes Dampier). He was trained as a gold and silversmith there, probably by French-born Jean Couvertie (1738‑1811), whose daughter Marie Anne Couvertie (1773‑1849) Lamothe married in 1789. He was part of the great exodus of San Domingue emigrants who fled to Cuba in 1803/1804 to escape the escalating conflicts among the French, the British, the Spanish and the newly-freed slaves on the island of Hispaniola. His family was still in Cuba in 1807, but there is evidence that Lamothe had already begun tentative dealings in New Orleans as early as 1805. A “Pierre Lamott” appears in both the 1805 city directory and Flannery’s 1805 civic census at 12 rue Ursulines, and he is evidently the same person who appears throughout that year in various notarial records concerning the purchase, inventory and sale of a dockside lumberyard. While this may be a different Pierre Lamott/Lamothe, it is significant that his partner in this business - perhaps one involved in the Cuban mahogany trade - was Pierre Sequin, whose daughter would marry Lamothe’s eldest son. It is certain that Lamothe and his entire family left Cuba after the Spanish War Crisis of 1808 and settled permanently in New Orleans by May, 1809, when his daughter was baptized at the St. Louis Cathedral. He is listed in the 1811 city directory as “Pre. Lamothe, orefevre [goldsmith] at 33 rue Toulouse, corner Royal, and for the next decade his name appears regularly in a wide variety of civic documents: muster rolls of Plauche’s Battalion during 903 detail

the Battle of New Orleans, trade advertisements in the Louisiana Courier (including a notice of the 1813 relocation of his shop to the corner of rue Royal and St. Louis), a handful of lawsuits in the court dockets, various property sales in the notarial archives (including the sale of a slave in 1815), an appearance in the 1817/1818 tableau of the Perserverance Masonic Lodge #4 (which noted that he was a 47-year-old jeweler and native of St. Marc) and annual listings in the city directory (where in 1822 his business was recorded as Pierre Lamothe & Son, still at 52 rue Royal). It is surprising, then, that there does not appear to be any record whatsoever of his death: no obituary, no secular or sacramental record of his interment, no tombstone, no will, probate, succession or inventory. He very probably died around 1823, the last year he was listed in the city directory. He was certainly dead by 1827, when “Mme. Pierre Lamothe, widow” is listed; she died on March 11, 1849. Together they had at least eight children, five of whom survived into adulthood. Sons Jean-Marie (1795‑1880) and Jean-Baptiste Lamothe (1800‑1874) continued the jewelry and silver business as Lamothe Freres on Chartres Street until at least 1846, when they moved to Esplanade Avenue near the magnificent new double home they had built there in 1840: the Lamothe House, today a popular guest house. Jean-Marie retired shortly after the move, but Jean-Baptiste remained listed as a goldsmith and jeweler until the advent of the Civil War. Through them - and their sisters MarieClarisse (1797‑1872), Marie-Virginie (1804‑1869) and Marie-Cecile Eliza (1807‑1888) - the descendants of Pierre Lamothe survive in New Orleans to the present day, a living legacy of the expatriate craftsman from San Domingue who found a home in the melting pot of our city. (Indeed, it is to be noted that one of those descendants gave New Orleans one of its crowning achievements: Lamothe’s grandson Francois Leon Lamothe (1835‑1868) is credited with the invention of the Sazerac cocktail.)

The Hugh deLacy Vincent Silver Hugh deLacy Vincent was born on January 26, 1852 in Charleston, South Carolina to Hugh Edward Vincent, Jr. (1820-1872), a prosperous ship’s chandler, and his wife Rosalie Jenny Howard (1820-1903). He was educated at local schools and upon graduation took up a clerk’s position with the Savannah & Charleston Railroad. In 1874, however, he joined the cotton firm of Watson & Hill, an industry in which he would remain until his death. He and a co-worker, Frank Brevard Hayne (1858-1935) left the firm in 1883 to form their own cotton business at Vicksburg, Mississippi, where Vincent met and married Nannie McCutchen (1856-1935). Vincent & Hayne opened a New Orleans branch in 1885, run by Hayne, but he was joined by Vincent in 1898. Vincent built a large home at No. 10 Audubon Place in 1899 for his residence, and he was a member of several New Orleans most prestigious business and social organizations: the Boston Club, the Pickwick Club, the Audubon Golf and Country Club, numerous carnival organizations, the board of directors of the Hibernia Bank and D.H. Holmes Co. Ill health prompted his retirement in 1905, after which he divided his time between New Orleans and his summer home in Flat Rock, North Carolina. He died at his home in New Orleans on March 15, 1913, survived by his widow and only son, Hugh Evelyn Vincent (1890-1951). He was returned to Charleston for burial in the family plot at Magnolia cemetery.

This remarkable collection of silver has remained intact in the Vincent family and thus represents a unique look into the tastes of an affluent southern family in the second half of the 19th century. From an antebellum rococo revival Charleston-retailed tea set inherited from his father, through an assortment of late 19th century tableware bought in New Orleans, to a spectacular height-of-fashion German Art Nouveau garniture set purchased in his retirement, Vincent’s keen eye can be seen throughout. New Orleans Auction Galleries, Inc. is proud to offer the Hugh deLacy Vincent silver: a rare window into New Orleans’ opulent past.

1273 Patinated Bronze Tabletop Bust of William IV (1765‑1837), second quarter 19th century, the monarch depicted togate on a socle base, raised on a pedestal of square section, three sides with applied laurel-enframed cypher “W/IV”, raised on four inverted floral feet, the reverse impressed “William/ IVth/ 1831”, h. 14‑1/2”. The date inscribed on the reverse - 1831 suggests that this is a souvenir of William IV’s coronation, held on September 8th of that year. It was a decidedly austere affair. William, desirous to distance himself from the extravagant reign of his brother George IV, at first wished to dispense with the ceremony entirely. Once reluctantly persuaded to go forth with it, he insisted that the cost be kept below 30,000 pounds: barely a tenth the cost of his brother’s ceremony. It was waggishly called the “half-crownation”. [1800/2500]

Conditions Of Sale

T

he following as amended by any posted notices or oral announcements during the sale, constitutes the entire terms and conditions on which property listed in the catalog shall be offered for sale or sold through New Orleans Auction Galleries, Inc. (the “Company”), for any consignor of such property for whom we act as agent. As used herein, the term “bid price” means the price at which a lot is knocked down to the purchaser and the term “purchase price” means the aggregate of (a) the bid price (b) a premium of 23% of the bid price up to and including $200,000 and 10% of the amount by which the lot exceeds $200,000 payable by the purchaser to the Company and (c) unless the purchaser is exempt by law from the payment thereof, any Louisiana state or local sales taxes. For purchases made by cash, check or wire transfer, the buyer’s premium shall be discounted 3% of this 23%. On the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the highest bidder shall be deemed to have purchased the offered lot in accordance with all of the conditions set forth herein and thereupon (a) assumes full risk and responsibility therefor (b) if requested will sign a confirmation of purchase thereof, and (c) will pay the purchase price in full. The Company reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time before the actual sale. Unless otherwise announced by the auctioneer at the time of sale, all bids are per lot as numbered in the catalog and no lot shall be divided for sale. The Company reserves the right to reject a bid from any bidder. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event the auctioneer doubts the validity of any bid, the auctioneer shall have sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the lot in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Company’s sales records shall be conclusive in all respects. In the event of a tie bid between an absentee bidder and a live bidder, the lot will be sold to the live bidder. If a lot is offered subject to a reserve (the confidential minimum price below which the lot will not be sold), the Company may implement such reserve by bidding on behalf of the consignor, whether by opening bidding or continuing bidding until the reserve is obtained, by placing consecutive bids or bids in response to other bidders. Consignors shall not be permitted to bid on their own items. While the Company has endeavored to catalog and describe the lots correctly, each lot is sold “as is”, and neither the Company nor the seller warrants or represents, nor shall be responsible for, the description, genuineness, provenance, importance, or condition of a lot. No statement contained in the catalog or made verbally prior to or during the sale shall be deemed to express any warranty, representation, or assumption of responsibility by the Company or the Seller. In the event that the buyer of any lot fails to pay the purchase price thereof when due, the Company shall have the option, at its sole discretion, to (a) enforce payment by civil action or other proceedings against the buyer; (b) to void the sale as if said sale had not occurred; or (c) to exercise any other remedy or remedies available under the law, including but not limited to a second sale of said item in accordance with the provisions of Louisiana Civil Code, Article 2622, including the subsequent enforcement of any deficiency against the initial buyer (d) to charge successful bids to your credit card, including the 23% buyer premium. The Company reserves the right to require that advance bids received either by mail or by means of telecommunications be accompanied by a 25% deposit. The Company further reserves the right to require payment in full of the sales price (“Hammer Price”) at the moment of successful bid. The Purchase Price must be paid by the successful bidder on or prior to the close of the auction. Checks are not acceptable unless a buyer is accredited with the Company; otherwise certified checks are required. Absolutely no items may be removed before the end of the auction. All items must be removed by the purchaser thereof promptly after the auction. The Company is not liable for any damage to goods after they have been sold. A storage charge of $5 per item per day will be assessed against any items remaining in the custody of the Company by the close of business of the fifteenth day following the auction. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION 11. These Conditions of Sale, as well as the Purchaser’s and the Company’s respective rights and obligations hereunder, shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Louisiana. By bidding at an auction, whether present in person or by agent, order bid, telephone, internet, or other means, the Purchaser shall be deemed to have consented to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of, and the federal courts sitting in, the State of Louisiana.
