884 884 Thomas Moran (American, 1837‑1926) “Mount Moran”, oil on canvas, signed and titled lower right “Mount Moran, Idaho, T. Moran”, 30” x 19‑1/2”. Presented in a period giltwood and gesso frame. Provenance: Private collection, Mississippi. Thomas Moran was born in Bolton, Lancashire, England in 1837, but emigrated, with his family to the United States at age seven, settling in Philadelphia. Though he received no formal art training, he was an apprentice to a wood engraver in his teens and received much encouragement and advice from the Philadelphia-based painter James Hamilton. He also studied with his older brother, Edward, a marine and historical painter, whose studio he shared. Moran became a western artist after working as an illustrator for magazines including Harper’s and Scribner’s. In 1871, he was invited to accompany Ferdinand V. Hayden’s Geological Survey Expedition to the Yellowstone Territory. Moran’s paintings of Yellowstone’s geysers, hot springs, canyons and cliffs, combined with the photographs taken by pioneer photographer William Henry Jackson, played a major role in convincing Congress to make the region a national park in 1872. After the Yellowstone trip, Moran’s career as an expedition artist and painter blossomed. He continued to travel with subsequent Hayden surveys and painted Yellowstone, Yosemite and the Grand Canyon as well as other wilderness regions for the next forty years. Amongst the sites he visited were the Teton Mountains in Wyoming, whose peak Dr. Hayden had named Mount Moran in his honor. Examples of Moran"s work can be found in major public collections throughout the United States, including the High Museum of Art, Atlanta; the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; the Denver Art Museum; the Amon Carter Museum, Fort Worth; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts; the Philadelphia Museum of Art; the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh; the M.

886 Alexander Helwig Wyant (American, 1836‑1892) “Misty Landscape with a Pond”, oil on canvas, signed lower right “A. H. Wyant”, 28” x 38”. Presented in a giltwood and gesso exhibition frame affixed with a brass plaque incised with the artist’s name. Provenance: Private collection, Mississippi. Born in Evans Creek, Ohio, Alexander Helwig Wyant was part of the Hudson River School early in his career. He was influenced by the French Barbizon impressionists, but later turned to tonalism, having seen the work of George Innes, whom he eventually met and who recognized his talent and helped him secure the patronage of Nicholas Longworth of Cincinnati. Wyant went on to study at the National Academy in New York, and in Germany with Fredrik Gude of the Dusseldorf School of Artists. He frequently exhibited at the National Academy, Brooklyn Art Association, Boston Arts Club, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and the Art Institute of Chicago. In 1873 he was part of an expedition into New Mexico and Arizona where he suffered a stroke, which paralyzed his right hand and forced him to paint with his left. It was said that this led to a freer style, lighter tone, and looser technique, all of which correlated with the growing taste of the American public. The critic, Charles Caffin, wrote of his paintings that they were “pregnant with suggestion” and were a “search for the spiritual, poetic side of nature through an expressive simplification of composition and tone.” He exhibited at the National Academy of Design, 1865‑92; Brooklyn Art Association, 1867‑92; Boston Arts Club, 1877‑82; Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, 1879‑81; Art Institute of Chicago; and Metropolitan Museum of Art. Public collections that include Alexander Helwig Wyant’s work can be found in the National Museum of American Art, Brooklyn Museum, Metropolitan Museum of Art, Toledo Museum of Art, Tennessee State Museum, and the Kentucky Art Museum.

887 Worthington (Thomas) Whittredge (American, 1820‑1910) “Wooded Interior with a Stream”, oil on canvas, signed lower left ‘W. Whittredge”, 18” x 40”. Presented in a period giltwood and gesso frame. Provenance: Private collection, Mississippi. Worthington Whittredge, an important member of the later Hudson River School, is best remembered as a landscape painter who celebrated the beauty of the Catskill Mountains as well as the American West. Born in 1820, on a farm near Springfield, Ohio, he moved to Cincinnati in 1837 where he began working as a house painter’s assistant and gradually advanced to sign and banner painting and to a little portrait work. He went to West Virginia where he painted portraits but turned exclusively to landscape painting in 1843. With the help of a Cincinnati art patron, Nicholas Longworth, Whittredge moved to Europe to study painting in 1849. In the end Whittredge came to find extended European study undesirable, asserting the idea that it "undermined the distinctive quality of his work". Upon his return to America he settled in New York, was elected to the National Academy in 1861 and in 1865 he accompanied Major General John Pope on an expedition to the Rockies, journeying through Colorado and New Mexico as far as Fort Union. He traveled extensively throughout New England, especially Newport, Rhode Island, the North Shore of Massachusetts, the Catskill Mountains, Lake George in New York, and in New Jersey. He served as President of the National Academy from 1874 to 1877 and was a member of various New York Clubs: Union League, the Century Association and the Lotos Club. In 1880, he built a house in Summit, New Jersey, where he resided until his death in 1910. Worthington Whittredge’s work is in the collections of the Worcester Museum of Art, Massachusetts; the Cincinnati Art Museum; the Brooklyn Museum; the Metropolitan Museum of Art; and the Newark Museum, New Jersey among other institutions.

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.

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.

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.
