PROPERTY FROM THE COLLECTION OF DORIAN M. BENNETT
NEW ORLEANS
Neal Auction Company is pleased to present property from the collection of noted New Orleans businessman, preservationist and aesthete Dorian M. Bennett. Founder of the eponymous real estate firm now affiliated with Sotheby’s International Realty, Dorian Bennett has enjoyed a long and distinguished career, specializing in historic properties and featuring a clientele of luminaries. In fact, he is often referred to as “Real Estate Agent to the Stars.” The award-winning restoration of his Faubourg Marigny office, 2340 Dauphine Street, speaks to Dorian’s preservation credentials, as does his personal residence, the Boutin House. Built in 1825 in ‘The Bend of Bourbon,’ the Creole cottage was once home to the son of Louisiana’s first American governor, William C.C. Claiborne. Longtime patrons of the arts, Dorian and his beloved wife, Kell, amassed a beautifully curated collection of important fine art highlighting their interest in contemporary and southern artists. Through close relationships and friendships, the Bennetts displayed a true passion for supporting artists, and with a keen eye, they selected works that embody the best of each one. In their home, the contemporary art combined with significant historical southern paintings and art pottery to create a uniquely New Orleans interior. The resulting collection represents a diverse array of voices, artistic styles and media. Active in civic affairs, Bennett has served on boards including the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, New Orleans Opera, Le Petit Theatre, Contemporary Arts Center and New Orleans Museum of Art.

SELECT ANTIQUES FROM HISTORIC 2700 COLISEUM ST., NEW ORLEANS 2700 Coliseum Street, in New Orleans’ Garden District, is one of five originally identical Greek Revival townhouses built in 1861 by noted New Orleans architect William A. Freret as a speculative venture. The outbreak of the Civil War doomed the project, and the row of townhouses, 27002706 Coliseum, became known as “Freret’s Folly”. Today they are beautifully restored Garden District landmarks.
Neal Auction Company is pleased to present select objects from 2700 Coliseum, fresh to the marketplace. The family’s collection, carefully selected over more than half a century, includes fine examples attributed to New York cabinetmakers J. & J.W. Meeks, John Henry Belter and Charles Baudouine, a labeled C. Lee tester bed of generous size, and a New Orleand lit en bateau and armoire.

[$10000/15000] Provenance: A Gallery for Fine Photography, New Orleans, LA. Note: Diane Arbus was an American photographer best known for her intimate black-and-white portraits. Arbus often photographed people considered on the fringes of society at the time, including the mentally ill, transgender people and circus performers. “A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know,” she once mused. Arbus was raised in a wealthy family, enabling her to pursue artistic interests from an early age. She first saw the photographs of Mathew Brady, Paul Strand and Eugène Atget while visiting Alfred Stieglitz’s gallery with her husband in 1941. During the mid-1940s, the couple began a commercial photography venture that contributed to Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. By the 1950s, Arbus began roaming the streets of New York with her camera, documenting the city through its residents. These images were later shown alongside those of Garry Winogrand and Lee Friedlander in The Museum of Modern Art’s exhibition “New Documents” of 1967. In the famous image offered here, Arbus captures not only a group of New York citizens, but also the intersectional and intangible community bonds formed amongst the individuals living life as little people and immigrants in the city.

[$8000/12000]
Note: Paul Cornoyer was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, where he began studying at the School of Art in 1881. By 1889, Cornoyer had traveled to Paris for further training at the Académie Julien under Jules Lefebvre, Benjamin Constant and Louis Blanc. Impressionism had been well-established in Paris since the preceding decade, and the movement had a profound impact on Cornoyer. He abandoned the Barbizon style of his earlier work in favor of the new aesthetic. Returning to the United States, Cornoyer established a studio in New York upon the advice of William Merritt Chase, who had admired and purchased his work. In the city, Cornoyer’s career flourished as he was greatly admired as both a painter and a teacher. The urban scenery and people of New York became his main subjects, and his skillful, impressionistic renderings of reflections on water and snowcovered parks were particularly beautiful and desired. Later in life, Cornoyer spent his summers in Gloucester, Massachusetts, seen in the work offered here, where he taught, painted and assisted in forming the North Shore Art Association.

[$3000/5000] Note: An influential Boston painter best known for his floral garden scenes and still lifes, Abbott Fuller Graves combined Realism with Impressionism through thick, impasto brushstrokes and bright, colorful sunlit subjects. In 1884, Graves traveled to Paris and Italy, often working with his good friend and fellow artist Edmund Tarbell. Graves and Tarbell roomed together in Europe, where they both studied still-life painting. Returning to Boston in 1885, Graves became a member of the faculty of the Cowles Art School, where fellow faculty member Childe Hassam and his impressionist style influenced his work. In 1887, Graves returned to Paris where he enrolled at the Académie Julian to study figure painting with Jean Paul Laurens. From 1891 onward, Graves’ paintings would frequently combine his two passions: strong impressionist style and floral garden scenes often featuring female figures in bright sunlight. Graves continued to travel throughout his career, and like many of his contemporaries, he was inspired by the light, color and culture of the Caribbean, as seen in the vibrant work offered here.

José‑Mariá Cundín (Spanish/New Orleans, b. 1938), “The Corrupt”, 1970, double‑sided oil on canvas, signed and dated upper left, sight 20 1/2 in. x 17 1/2 in., framed. [$3000/5000]
29. Terrance Osborne (American/ New Orleans, b. 1976), “Post Katrina Blues”, 2005, acrylic and mixed media bas relief on shaped panel, signed lower right, signed and dated en verso, 28 1/2 in. x 100 1/2 in. [$15000/25000]
Note: Born and raised in the Crescent City, Terrance Osborne attended the prestigious New Orleans Center for Creative Arts high school and graduated with a BFA from Xavier University of Louisiana. His unique artistic style has garnered him widespread admiration and success, and he has collaborated with Nike, the New Orleans Hornets and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival for which he created several posters. The monumental painting offered here, “Post-Katrina Blues,” is an iconic work by the beloved local artist and served as the inspiration for his best-selling lithograph of the same title. Osborne employs a vivid color palette to render the city at its lowest point – still with standing water and houses in disarray. In the background, a search party in a boat is on watch for anyone in need of rescue. Despite the sober scene, the houses are resplendent with color and vivacity. They glow from within as if to indicate that a rebirth, a new dawn, is attainable on the horizon. Osborne’s method of overlaying shaped wood elements adds a strong sense of dimensionality and movement, as the scene poignantly encapsulates the spirit of New Orleans.

32. Bob Graham (American/New Orleans, b. 1947), “Boeuf Gras”, 2012, acrylic on canvas, signed and dated lower right, 18 in. x 36 in., framed. [$1500/2500] Ill.: Graham, Bob. The Mardi Gras Paintings of Bob Graham. Gretna: Pelican Publishing Company, 2015 Note: “A parade only exists when it rolls. It is an abstract idea produced by the sequencing of exciting elements. When it’s over the floats and people still exist, but the parade ceases to exist.” ~ Bob Graham Local artist Bob Graham is primarily known for his impeccable portraiture. Notably, he is annually commissioned to paint the portraits of the inductees of the Saints Hall of Fame. He is also a master at painting local scenes, including his moving portrayals of Mardi Gras revelry that prove enchanting tributes to the city’s most beloved and celebrated past-time. With his vivid palette and impressionistic brushstrokes, Graham succeeds in capturing the movement and exuberance of the larger-than-life festivities. In this canvas, entitled “Bœuf Gras,” Graham depicts the iconic Rex float, mid-ride amidst the roaring crowd. The parade-goers are represented with frenzied strokes of color, perfectly capturing the ephemeral, euphoric energy of Mardi Gras day. Ref.: Graham, Bob. The Mardi Gras Paintings of Bob Graham.

34. James Michalopoulos (American/New Orleans, b. 1951), “Blue Car”, 1997, oil on canvas, signed lower left, signed and dated en verso, 31 1/2 in. x 47 1/4 in., framed. [$3000/5000]
35. William Hemmerling (American/Louisiana, 1943‑2009), “New Orleans”, mixed media on bed sheet, signed lower right, titled lower center, 103 in. x 86 1/4 in., unframed. [$30000/50000] Provenance: Collection of Wendy and the late George (1944‑2013) Rodrigue Note: William “Bill” Hemmerling was born in Chicago and moved to his mother’s hometown of Ponchatoula, Louisiana as a young man, where he worked as a window dresser for Sears & Roebuck until 2002. Upon retirement, Hemmerling began painting in his own distinctive style on wood and found objects. His subjects ranged from jazz musicians to a series of works inspired by African American history and culture. In “New Orleans” offered here, Hemmerling depicts the Young Men Olympian Jr. Benevolent Association during a second line parade. YMO is the oldest benevolent association in New Orleans and continues to maintain the goals, ideals and format it forged at the turn of the century. The group was formed by ten African American men on September 3, 1884. At the time, the African American community in New Orleans was experiencing soaring mortality rates; recovering from an 1882 Mississippi River flood; and undergoing federal civil rights protections that accompanied Reconstruction being replaced beginning in 1877 with disenfranchising Jim Crow laws. A mainstay of the community, the YMO, supported by dues and fundraisers, protected members in times of illness and defrayed the cost of funerals—complete with jazz bands, tombs and a stipend for the deceased’s family. As the club has evolved and grown dramatically over the years, passing down the tradition of second lining from generation to generation has been another important goal. The support provided by YMO continues to be felt in the community to this day. The emotions, cultural history and visual spectacle of the second line would have appealed greatly to Hemmerling and almost certainly guided his choice in subject matter when approaching such a large “canvas.” His love of people and enthusiasm for Louisiana’s culture is clear and helps to lend an energy and sense of excitement to the classic New Orleans subject. Another iconic Louisiana artist, George Rodrigue developed a friendship with Hemmerling, often visiting him in Ponchatoula with gifts of art supplies and art books. Rodrigue greatly admired his friend’s work and was quoted in 2005 upon the debut of Hemmerling’s official Jazz Fest poster as saying: “Hemmerling is a pure artist. He paints from his heart, from his soul, he really paints what he feels…and the paintings are honest and straightforward. It’s beautiful art.” Rodrigue himself selected this masterwork for his and Wendy’s personal collection, and the monumental scene hung in a place of honor in the Rodrigue’s home in New Orleans for many years.

36. Benny Andrews (American/Georgia, 1930‑2006), “Chess”, 1964, oil on canvas, signed, titled and dated lower left, “The Charleston Renaissance Gallery, Charleston, SC” label on backing, sight 14 3/4 in. x 10 3/4 in., framed. [$5000/8000] Provenance: The Charleston Renaissance Gallery, Charleston, SC. Note: Benny Andrews was born in 1930 to a mixed-race family in rural Georgia. After becoming the first member of his family to graduate from high school, he attended Fort Valley State College supported by a scholarship as he was not allowed to attend the University of Georgia due to the color of his skin. After serving as a military policeman in the Korean War, Andrews utilized the G.I. Bill to attend the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1954. For the first time, Andrews was able to enter an art museum and view original art, an experience that would inspire a lifetime of his own work. After graduating in 1958, Andrews moved to New York, where he maintained a studio for the rest of his life. Despite limited connections to the city’s art world, he began to exhibit regularly at the Forum Gallery by 1962, where his first solo exhibition received favorable reviews in the New York Times. Within his first six years of residence in New York, Andrews became an established artist. His work was accepted for exhibition in New York, Philadelphia, Detroit and Provincetown. During the 1960s, Andrews also became increasingly active with the Civil Rights Movement, protesting institutional racism on picket lines at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art and co-founding the Black Emergency Cultural Coalition in 1969, which demanded greater visibility for people of color in art museums and within the historical canon. Andrews developed a reputation as a socially minded artist dedicated to community activism and education. “Chess” offered here is a powerful example of the canvases behind Andrews’ early success in New York, and it makes clear why his figurative works are among his most memorable subjects. As Catherine Fox wrote of Andrews: “His art was stubbornly figurative when abstraction was boss, hot when art was cool. He bridled at being pigeonholed as a ‘black artist,’ lambasting critics for ‘not being able to see a black figure done by a black artist without automatically assuming that the work is propagandistic or politicizing.’ Whatever the color of his characters’ skins, his subject was the human spirit.” Early in his career, Andrews developed a technique of roughly incorporating collaged fabric and paper into his paintings, and this “rough collage” became a stylistic hallmark of his work. He had clearly mastered this technique by the time he created “Chess” in 1964, as areas of the scene emerge from the canvas towards the viewer with a strong three-dimensional quality. The red chess pieces stand in stark contrast to the black and white board and loom in front of the figure almost as if on a surrealist landscape. Throughout his career Benny Andrews’s painting practice combined elements of figuration, abstraction and surrealism. His subject matter ranged from personal narrative and cultural history to political allegory. Andrews’ work is the subject of an ongoing permanent collection exhibition at the Ogden Museum of Southern Art celebrating one of the South’s greatest voices in the visual arts, and the newly re-opened and expanded Museum of Modern Art in New York currently has on exhibit Andrews’ “No More Games” of 1971 from its permanent collection.

[$40000/60000] Provenance: Barbara Davis Gallery, Houston, TX. Note: Mel Bochner is a conceptual artist best known for his works incorporating language, and he is widely acknowledged as a leading figure in the development of Conceptual Art in New York in the 1960s and 1970s. “Irascible,” like all of his text-based works, takes its name from the first word in the series.

Exh.: “Paintspitter: Paintings and Construction by Robert Warrens”, New Orleans Museum of Art, 1990 and illustrated in accompanying catalogue, p. 34. Note: “Warrens is the interpreter of the ridiculous and absurd that dwell among the commonplace and superfluous. He utilizes mundane material retaining the original form but presenting it in a new situation, more objectively, creating unexpected variants... banal objects and decorative clichés become vehicles of mystery or droll comedy.” ~ Robert M. Doty Robert Joseph Warrens’ fanciful body of work effortlessly unites familiar real-life imagery with fantasy. Warrens’ creations are often a reflection of his views on societal ills, autobiographical statements on art-making or powerful visual allegories condemning environmental pollution. Warrens uses attention-grabbing colors and compositions to visually stun viewers while imparting a satirical commentary on the lunacy of the current day. In the monumental and important sculpture offered here entitled “Space Station Apartments,” Warrens has concocted a whimsical montage of colors and familiar forms. Small suspended apartments, the same shape as birdhouses, punctuate the construction while curious cones, planet-like orbs and fan-like objects adorn the structure. A plume of technicolor smoke and pollutants rise from the chimney into the virgin alien atmosphere, perhaps as a wink to the viewer that while humans in this space station have escaped Earth, they continue to commit the same sins against their environment.

Note: Artist James Surls has been creating and exhibiting his work nationally and internationally for five decades, and he is one of the most widely celebrated sculptors of the American West. His works have a distinctive modernist style that combines metal and wood in dynamic fashion. Primarily based on natural forms, his pieces often consist of needles or branches radiating from a core element, as evidenced by “I Am in the House” offered here, and symbolizing growth to the artist. Trees have long been at the center of Surls’ work, and many of his sculptures are influenced by the East Texas landscape where he was raised and spent many years. Surls’ evident mastery over his materials allows him to imbue his work with intriguing paradoxes that have evolved over the course of his career and continue to fascinate viewers.

Note: Harlem Renaissance sculptor Richmond Barthé was born and raised in Bay St. Louis, Mississippi. His Catholic upbringing and the scenic Gulf coast provided early inspiration for his childhood artistic pursuits. With only a middle school education, Barthé accepted a position as a houseboy in New Orleans at the age of fourteen, where he was supported in his art by both the family who employed him and his surrounding community. After Barthé donated two oil paintings to his church, the parish priest raised funds in 1924 for Barthé to enroll at the Art Institute in Chicago, one of only two art schools that accepted African American students at the time. Upon graduation from the Art Institute in 1929, Barthé moved to New York, where he established a studio in Harlem. Immersing himself in the cultural renaissance flourishing there, Barthé developed a reputation among scholars of the New Negro Movement, including Alain Locke, who became a passionate collector and promoter of his work, as well as Langston Hughes.
Barthé believed that if an artist considered how an object felt, rather than how it looked, then his hands could execute the sculpture with little interference from the conscious mind. As a homosexual African American man, Barthé maintained an openness to studying people of all races, creeds and demographics. Eager to understand the nature of societies and the people who function within them, Barthé sought to capture the spiritual essence of his subjects. He is best known for the allegorical and genre figures he executed during the 1930s and 1940s, subjects inspired by his Christian faith, interest in African lore, and fascination with theatre and dance. During these decades, Barthé was the only African American sculptor for whom the male nude was a focus. These important figures initially appear to fall within the tradition of realism, but their elongated and sometimes distorted forms lend an expressionist quality, as seen in the bronze offered here.

Note: Robert Hodge studied visual art at the Pratt Institute, Atlanta College of Art and the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture before returning to his hometown of Houston, Texas where he currently lives and works. He is an interdisciplinary artist working in multiple media who has become a fixture in the city’s art scene and exhibited his work in numerous national and international institutions. Hodge developed a signature “cut-out” technique, in which he prepares foraged and found papers for his paintings through a labor-intensive process in which he glues or sews countless layers together. He may then bury the papers or leave them exposed to the elements to achieve a more weathered aesthetic that best expresses the tactility of urban environments. The fused papers take on a sculptural presence with richly textured surfaces that Hodge can then precisely carve, initially using an X-Acto knife and then a laser cutter. Each cut reveals the intricate layers beneath through an overlying powerful message of “windows” of text. “All My Sons” offered here was part of a series Hodge created for his first solo exhibition “Robert Hodge: Destroy and Rebuild” at the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston in 2014. The series features paintings which superimpose hip-hop references over prints of historical paintings and drawings, primarily images including a master and slave. Self-described as one of the artist’s favorites in the show, “All My Sons” pairs John Trumbull’s portrait of George Washington of 1780 with text from Nas’ “If I Ruled the World (Imagine That).” The Trumbull portrait also depicts the president’s slave and valet, Billy Lee. Hodge addressed this inclusion: “Billy Lee had a 30-year relationship with George Washington. They were really close. Movies never show you that side; it’s always black and white. But these relationships were complicated.” Because he also was thinking about the horrors of Hurricane Katrina when creating “All My Sons,” Hodge replaced Washington’s head with an image of George W. Bush. “My work primarily consists of drawing, printmaking and mixed media collage that evokes culturally relevant themes and is informed by histories of West Africa, and political events of historical and cultural significance. My intention is to tell stories about our diverse culture; knowing this is critical to understanding why I appropriate and collage POP images together to create a new dialogue out of the commercial language that surrounds us in everyday life.” - Robert Hodge. Described in Artforum as “insistently uncompromising,” Hodge’s work utilizes irreverent irony to address concerns about race and equality while compelling his viewers to take a stand.

Note: “People should fall in love with their eyes closed. Just close your eyes. Don’t look and it’s like magic.” ~ Andy Warhol In 1978, Andy Warhol created a series of prints titled Sex Parts, which were characterized by explicit sexuality. In 1983, he countered that series (and perhaps critics calling his work pornography) by creating the Love series. Whereas the first series focused on the sexual act, the Love series prints each depict a nude couple in a different embrace, showcasing their full bodies rather than focusing on select body parts. The series is not explicit and is meant to highlight the passion and deep emotional intimacy behind the physicality of sexual intercourse. The full series consists of three screen prints that can be seen as telling a romantic narrative. Two of those prints, Love 311 (Blue) and Love 312 (Gold), are offered here. Each of these images presents a unique color variation from the numbered series.

One of the chairs of the 1986 Sisters of Mercy sale is now part of the High Museum of Atlanta, Georgia; another is now in the Bybee Collection at the Dallas Museum of Art.

Note: The Countess of La Fayette, known to many as “Madame de Lafayette,” was born Marie-Madeleine Pioche de la Vergne in 1634 in Paris. Her family were wealthy and prominent minor nobles, and she married François Motier, Count of La Fayette, in 1655. As a young woman, she received an excellent education at court as a lady-in-waiting to Queen Regent Anne of Austria, whose son would become Louis XIV upon reaching his majority. Due to her education and the fact that her parents often entertained writers, philosophers, and scholars during her childhood, it is not surprising that Madame de La Fayette developed an interest in writing. Publishing anonymously or under a pen name, Madame de La Fayette wrote seven novels, including her most famous work The Princess of Cleves.
As a successful and prolific portrait painter, Pierre Mignard would have had many opportunities to paint nobility such as the Countess of La Fayette. Mignard came from a family of artisans, and both he and his brother, Nicolas, became painters. Studying with prominent artists of the time such as Simon Vouet, Jean Bouchet and Nicolas Poussin, Mignard became known in Rome for his religious paintings. Leaving Rome for Paris, he became even more well known for his portraits; among his most famous sitters are the playwright Molière and the mathematician René Descartes. Known for his rich palette with jewel-like tones and fine brushwork, this portrait of Madame de La Fayette is a beautiful example of Mignard’s skill.

339. Jose Francisco Xavier de Salazar y Mendoza (Mexican/New Orleans, c. 1750‑1802), “Portrait of Marie Marguerite Reine Sarde Le Bourgeois (1752‑1833)”, 1797, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, inscribed in French en verso, 36 1/2 in. x 28 7/8 in., framed. [$50000/70000] Provenance: Descended in the family of the sitter; Neal Auction Company, Dec. 5-7, 1997, lot 776; Private Collection, LA. Note: Marie Marguerite Reine lived through a tumultuous and fascinating period in Louisiana history and was one of the rare ladies depicted by the illustrious Jose Francisco Xavier de Salazar y Mendoza. Situated within Salazar’s characteristic fictive oval, she is seated at a right angle to the viewer in a Louis XVI chair with her arm resting on a marble top commode. The scene likely was composed in Salazar’s studio, based on the inclusion of similar furniture in other portraits, notably his depiction of Marie Jeanne Bozonnier De Marmillion Loubies (1768-1833). Marie Marguerite’s costume includes a draped white shawl in a sumptuous fabric and white hair ribbon, along with delicately rendered gold earrings, onyx bead necklace and gold ring. At the age of forty-five when depicted here in 1797, Marie Marguerite was a woman of means, married to her second husband and mother to eleven surviving children. Marie Marguerite was the daughter of French immigrants Etienne Pierre Reine (c. 1729-1788) and Marie Françoise Renard (c. 1725-1795). She was one of ten children and spent her life in the New Orleans area. She married Nicolas Sarde (c. 1748-1780) in 1768 and had six children: Marie Francoise “Marguerite” Sarde (c. 1769-1835) who married Joseph Gillard (born c. 1760); Marguerite Jeanne “Manette” Sarde (c. 1772-1835) who married Urbain Gaiennie (1754-1824); Eulalie Alexandrine Sarde (c. 1774-1820) who married Francois “Joseph” Gaiennie (c. 1760-1804); Euphrosine Sarde (c. 1776-1862) who married Jean Gleises (c. 1770); Etienne Sarde (c. 1778), and Eugenie Sarde (c. 17811865) who married Jacques Nadaud (c. 1762-1822). Widowed in 1780, Marie Marguerite re-married to Pierre Le Bourgeois (c. 1752-1824) around 1784. Pierre Le Bourgeois had immigrated to the United States from Normandy, France in 1772, and he first settled in Philadelphia, where he engaged in the silk trade. In 1776, he moved to New Orleans to avoid disruptions to his business during the American Revolution and met the widow Marie Marguerite Sarde. The couple had five more children: Louis Le Bourgeois(1785-1837) who married
Erasie Haydel Becnel (1782-1857); Etienne Pierre Le Bourgeois (c. 1787-1850) who married Louise Arthemise Matherne (c. 1806-1850); Adolestine “Celeste” Le Bourgeois (c. 1789-1853) who married Valery Armant (c. 1780-1862); Guillaume Henry Le Bourgeois (c. 1791); and Arnaud Le Bourgeois (c. 1797-1862) who married Catherine Aimee Boucry (c. 1806-1839). From a notable family tree, Marie Marguerite’s father, Etienne Pierre Reine, served in the Militia Regiment of Louisiana under General Bernardo Galvez. Louis Le Bourgeois, her eldest son with her second husband, owned the original land and house in St. James Parish where Belmont Plantation was built after his death by his widow, Erasie Haydel Becnel Le Bourgeois. Belmont Plantation was located on the east bank of the Mississippi River directly opposite of the well-known Oak Alley Plantation. Belmont was described as “one of the finest plantation mansions in Louisiana, a magnificent example of a wealthy planter’s home…it typifies the luxurious scale of living during the golden era of the state.” The house survived the Civil War only to be heavily damaged by the Belmont crevasse of the early 1890s and then destroyed by fire a year later.

340. Helen Maria Turner (American/New Orleans, 1858‑1958), “Portrait of Ann Spencer”, 1925, oil on canvas, signed and inscribed “N.Y.” lower left, “The Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington D.C.”, “The National Arts Club, New York, NY” and “The Akron Art Museum, Akron, OH” exhibition labels on backing board, 40 in. x 30 1/4 in., framed; together with handwritten letter from the artist to the sitter’s family, Dec. 29, 1925, framed with envelope. (2 pcs.) [$60000/80000] Provenance: Commissioned directly from the artist by Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Spencer, New York (parents of the sitter), 1925-1964; thence by descent to Ann Spencer Pratt, New York (sitter), 1964-1972; thence by descent to Lawrence Spencer Pratt, Massachusetts (sitter’s son), 19721992; Blake Benton, New York, 1992-1996; Private Collection. Exh. : “Member’s Annual Exhibition of Paintings and Sculpture”, National Arts Club, New York, Jan. 13 – Feb. 6, 1926; Grand Central Art Gallery, New York, Mar., 1926; “Tenth Exhibition of Contemporary American Oil Paintings”, Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., 1926; “Paintings by Helen M. Turner, N. A.”, multiple locations, 19261927; “Helen M. Turner, NA A Retrospective Exhibition”, multiple locations, 1983-1984 and illustrated in accompanying catalogue, p. 16.
Note: American Impressionist Helen Maria Turner was only the third woman elected to full membership in the National Academy of Design, the first from Louisiana, and one of the first from the South. In the second half of her career, Turner achieved significant critical acclaim and financial success, and her awards were as numerous as her exhibitions. The 1880s saw the art world open significantly for women in America, and Turner benefited greatly from the art clubs and associations in both New Orleans and New York, where she studied under artists such as Andres Molinary, Bror Anders Wikstrom, William Merritt Chase, and Joseph De Camp. She became part of a growing group of women who were able to support themselves as professional artists through hard work and perseverance in a field dominated by men.
As Lewis Hoyer Rabbage writes: “Among all the influences on Helen Turner’s personal life, and on her work, none could be considered more profound than her association with the artists’ colony at Cragsmoor, New York.” Beginning with her first summer there in 1906 upon the invitation of Charles Curran, Turner spent the summers from 1906 through 1941 in Cragsmoor, with only two exceptions. In 1911, she attended the William Merritt Chase class in Italy, and in 1922, she visited with an artist friend, Thalia Millett Malcom, in Paris. By 1910, Turner had built her own house in Cragsmoor and named it “Takusan.” The home featured a spacious second floor art studio, expansive porches and a lush garden. While other artists depicted Cragsmoor’s mountain, forest and meadow landscapes, Turner focused on her surroundings closer to home. In particular, the graceful porches encircled by a yard full of birch trees, rhododendrons, hollyhock and other bright flowers were a constant source of inspiration. Women on porches and in garden settings were popular subjects among American Impressionists, and Turner’s body of work within this realm are among her most successfully realized and important canvases. Faced with the challenge of capturing the richness of color, pattern and texture of the garden, without distracting from the importance of the model, Turner displayed her full skill and range as an artist.

The notable portrait offered here of Ann Spencer (1914-1972) was a commission by her parents in 1925 and exemplifies Turner’s skill in portraiture. The accompanying letter dated December 29, 1925 from Helen Turner to Mr. Spencer in acknowledgement of receipt of the final payment of $250 says in part: “Indeed, I rejoice with you that you and your family are now the full possessors of this beloved likeness of your precious daughter, and that you were able to make this most acceptable Christmas gift.” Mr. and Mrs. C.G. Spencer of New York treasured the painting of their daughter, and it remained in the family until 1992.
Depicting Spencer on her porch at Takusan, the vividness of the Cragsmoor garden in the background is perfectly offset by the geometry of the porch post and railing supporting the figure in an artfully draped blue dress. The lovely young girl gazes at the viewer with a complete lack of artifice; her red hair and pale skin in striking contrast to the green of the foliage surrounding her. Jane Faquin has written: “Turner painted people as she saw them, even portrait commissions.” In this case, Turner needed no flattery to capture the innocence and spirit of her sitter.
Interestingly, Ann Spencer herself would later become an artist, inspired by her time as a girl spent with the esteemed Helen Turner. Born in Ontario, Spencer’s best friend as a child was Lenna Glackens, daughter of the renowned artist William J. Glackens, and this connection also provided Spencer with early exposure to the New York art world. She later studied at the National Academy of Design and Sarah Lawrence College. Spencer’s work was diverse in subject and media and often inspired by her world travels. Throughout her life, Spencer must have cherished the portrait that represented her own inspiration to pursue the arts and was one of the most widely exhibited and crowning canvases of a true trailblazer in an important chapter of American art history – Helen Maria Turner.

341. William Woodward (American/Louisiana, 1859‑1939), “Madame John’s Legacy”, 1914, Rafaelli crayon on board, signed and dated lower right, signed, titled and inscribed en verso, 14 3/4 in. x 20 in., framed. [$25000/35000] Provenance: Estate of Naomi Marshall; Tim Foley, New Orleans.
Note: Through his paintings of New Orleans, William Woodward was intent on capturing the French Quarter in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, both its architecture and the vanishing customs of the Creole people who inhabited it. Woodward depicted street scenes with iconic structures such as “Madame John’s Legacy” offered here, as well as private homes and commercial buildings. His intent – to preserve a moment in time of a city that was constantly changing – yielded important works of art that capture much more than a period photograph by incorporating Woodward’s skillful handling of the vibrant medium with his sense of romance for New Orleans. This series of works, while not primarily an architectural record, laid the foundation for the local preservationist movement soon to follow in the French Quarter.
One of the few surviving 18th century building complexes in Louisiana and one of the best examples of French colonial architecture in North America, the original structure of Madame John’s Legacy managed to survive the 1794 fire in the French Quarter unscathed. There is some debate regarding the loss sustained in the prior 1788 fire. The owner, Manuel de Lanzos, instructed his American contractor, Robert Jones, to recycle as much brick and iron hardware as possible from his damaged house, suggesting that enough of it survived the fire to be included in the rebuilding. Whether entirely rebuilt in 1788 or a restoration of a previous structure, the house retained the French colonial style that prevailed before the disaster and is now designated an official National Historic Landmark. The house’s name was inspired by George Washington Cable’s 1874 short story “‘Tite Poulette,” in which the character Monsieur John bequeaths a Dumaine Street house to his mistress, known as Madame John. Though older parts of the French Quarter were once dotted with similar structures, today very few houses like Madame John’s Legacy remain.
Woodward, who often created several slightly varying works portraying the same scene, included a 1902 etching of Madame John’s Legacy in his book, French Quarter Etchings of Old New Orleans, published in 1938. The permanent collection of the Louisiana State Museum holds a larger painting of Madame John’s Legacy by Woodward, while one other depiction is known to be held in a private collection. Interestingly in the view offered here, Woodward forgoes the inclusion of the horsedrawn cart seen in the other views in favor of a vendor depicted in the open doorway of the lower level with additional varied figures along the walkway. This choice allowed the architecture of the famous building to take center stage in the more closely centered and carefully constructed composition. Ref.: Bragg, Jean and Susan Saward.

Note: Clarence Millet returned to New Orleans in 1924 after completing studies at the Art Students’ League in New York. His favored subject during this time was the distinctive buildings and street life of the French Quarter. Millet taught night classes at the Arts and Crafts Club of New Orleans of which he was a founding member. In December of 1927, a number of members of the Arts and Crafts Club, including Millet, organized the New Orleans Art League. The organization held weekly meetings, organized annual exhibitions at the Delgado Museum of Art, opened studios and mounted traveling exhibitions of members’ work. The New Orleans Art League maintained their headquarters in the French Quarter at 630 Toulouse Street in the old Governor Claiborne house. The courtyard, depicted in the work offered here, with its exterior stairway and distinctive archways provided the inspiration for many artistic renderings by artists such as Millet, who maintained a studio in the building, and visitors alike. In this rare perspective on the famous architecture, Millet depicts the discarded tools and works in progress of an anonymous sculptor from the vantage point of the top of the staircase.
Note: New Orleans-born Joseph Lambert Cain began his art career at the age of sixteen when he cut short his high school education to pursue studying drawing at the Chicago Academy of Fine Art as well as the Art Institute of Chicago. He would continue his artistic studies under the tutelage of Hans Hoffman and at such prestigious institutions as the Art Students League of New York and the Sorbonne. Cain often exhibited with his equally talented contemporaries such as Milton Avery, Adolph Gottlieb, and Max Weber, and he even formed “The Group” with them and several other artists including Mark Rothko and Hans Hoffman. Together they would gather and discuss art theory and modernism. In between his teaching jobs and mural commissions, Cain would return to the imagery of his native New Orleans, often painting in a much more representational style while utilizing vibrant colors to underscore the sense of vitality and vigor which he sought to capture in the city of his birth. In “House with Four Gables” offered here, the architecture of the house is both highlighted and obscured by Cain’s masterful use of expressive line.

Note: In the catalogue for the 1975 retrospective of John McCrady’s work at the New Orleans Museum of Art, curator Keith Marshall writes, “[McCrady’s] decision to paint the rural South was not an objective choice; it was a necessity.” McCrady painted the rural life and people he knew from his youth in Mississippi and adulthood in New Orleans, often taking inspiration from gospel music and folktales. The work offered here entitled “The Old Woman and the Pig,” was inspired by the nursery rhyme of the same name, a cumulative tale meant to teach children the chain of cause and effect. At the end of the story, the old woman succeeds in getting the stubborn pig to go over the stile. Although originally an English folktale, McCrady places the action in the rural south. Using a technique he invented, he layered acrylic paint over a carbon drawing. With this method, he paints layers of dark blue and teal making the skies overhead look ominous, a warning of the struggles to come as the woman fights to get the animal home after purchasing it at market.

Note: Robert Charles Guidry (1938-2010), known as Bobby Charles, was born in Abbeville, LA and pioneered the south Louisiana musical genre “swamp pop.” He wrote hits such as “Walking to New Orleans” (recorded by Fats Domino) and “See Ya’ Later Alligator” (recorded by Bill Haley and the Comets). Charles appeared at the legendary “Last Waltz” concert in 1976, where he performed “Down South in New Orleans” with The Band and Dr. John. Charles returned to the studio in 1987, recording an album called Clean Water - the same year George Rodrigue created the portrait on offer here, which was utilized as the cover image of the record. According to Rodrigue, Charles wanted to be immortalized not just through his music, but also with an image of the strongest and longest love he had ever known – maternal love. Behind the adult Bobby in a rocking chair with his guitar (most likely inspired by a famous photograph of Charles in the collection of the Louisiana State Museum), Rodrigue painted the baby Bobby swaddled in the arms of his mother.

463.

[$12000/18000] Note: Born in Brussels, Charles-Louis Baugniet attended the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts from 1827-1829, where he studied under Joseph Paelinck, a student of Jacques-Louis David, and Florent Willems. Working primarily as a lithographer upon becoming a full-time artist, Baugniet created portraits of the Belgian House of Representatives and fellow artists. He was commissioned to paint portraits of the Belgian Royal Family and subsequently appointed court painter in 1841. With the growing popularity of photography in the 1850s, Baugniet found less call for lithography and thus began to focus more on oil painting, with a work accepted for the 1858 French Exhibition in London. He eventually moved to Paris and regularly exhibited there, London and Brussels until his death in Sèvres in 1886.
Unlike his lithographic portraiture, Baugniet’s paintings almost exclusively focus on women in rich interiors, as he captured seemingly insignificant moments of time in spectacular detail. “Remorse, sadness, joy, a whole range of feelings is staged with the elegance, the charm but also the frivolity of this Parisian life of the second half of the 19th century.” In the work offered here from this period, two fashionable ladies admire a slipper just peeking from below the hem of a dress while a maid oversees the scene. Baugniet paints the figures, fabric and fine details of the interior as if awash with light from an unseen window - inviting the viewer to admire the slipper and the skillful painting.

Note: Born in rural Kentucky, Henry Faulkner overcame being orphaned in childhood to leading an avant-garde lifestyle as an artist. Faulkner is best known for his wildly colorful oil paintings and eccentric acts, including bringing a bourbon-drinking goat to parties and art shows. He was a close friend of Tennessee Williams, who called him “a creative poet and artist.” While briefly hospitalized in a Washington D.C. psychiatric facility, Faulkner also befriended fellow patient and poet Ezra Pound. Settling in Lexington, Kentucky in 1956, Faulkner created and exhibited still life paintings, as well as figural and landscape works, usually executed in a flamboyant palette with a whimsical sensibility. His style is often compared to the Surrealist and Colorist artists, and he took inspiration from locales ranging from California to Italy to his native Kentucky. In the work offered here, the perspective, unusual scale of the objects and bold planes of color lend a fantastical element to the otherwise everyday scene of a woman bathing.

747. Sarah Sole Ferguson (American/New Orleans, 20th c.), “Bride”, 2013, oil on canvas, signed, titled and dated en verso, 42 1/4 in. x 34 in., unframed. [$1000/1500]
Note: Sara Sole Ferguson was raised in New Orleans and worked as a mathematician before deciding to move to New York to become an artist. She gained widespread recognition with her various portraits of Hillary Clinton, many times superimposed onto different iconic images and celebrity bodies such as Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor and various nineteenth century American presidents. The canvas on offer here depicts the bride of Frankenstein, iconic imagery borrowed from the 1935 film. The painting was exhibited in her 2013 exhibition “E Pluribus Unum” at Coup d’oeil Art Consortium and showed alongside an interesting array of characters, including politicians like Hillary Clinton and actors such Boris Karloff of the 1932 film The Mummy. The juxtaposition of the political with the pop and the underlying connotation is where the meaning of her work lies. She handles popular imagery with gravitas just as she approaches the political with levity.

[$500/700]
Note: The Barrow family arrived in Louisiana Territory in 1800, remaining in Natchez while their plantations were being purchased and likely settling in West Feliciana Parish in early 1801. Upon their arrival, William Barrow III began to acquire large land holdings, which would make him one of the wealthiest citizens of the parish. Highland Plantation (known as Locust Grove until the 1840s) was the first house built by members of the Barrow family. Similar to grand homes in North Carolina, Highland Plantation was significant for introducing federal-style architecture and new building traditions to West Feliciana. The portrait offered here depicts Anna Eliza Barrow (18481931), daughter of Bennett Hilliard Barrow (1811-1854), heir to William Barrow III and Highland Plantation, and his second wife, Ann “Nancy” Joor (1811-1888), the widowed sister of his first wife. Anna Eliza was one of three children born to her parents at Highland Plantation and spent her early years there with her siblings and halfsiblings before moving to Bolivar County, Mississippi and settling at East Fork Plantation shortly after the death of her father.

Note: Gregory Saunders’ work elevates drawing - a medium that is traditionally used more as a preparatory material. With intense focus on detail, his drawings are often mistaken for photographs. Saunders’ has developed a labor-intensive method of layering powdered graphite with acrylic spray that allows for extremely subtle tonal ranges within the grey scale. This method enables him to capture even the slightest effect of light on or in a subject, but the process is a painstaking one, often taking over four hundred hours per drawing to complete. In addition to focusing on a medium that is often overlooked, Saunders also chooses subjects he refers to as “overdone” in an attempt to take a “cliché” and render it with such focus and intensity that it is imbued with new life. He describes his drawings thus: “My work deals with dichotomy and contradiction; the methods I employ are contemporary, the materials traditional….I intend to challenge both contemporary and traditional concepts of art by presenting drawing which is not line, painting without color and sculpture that is two dimensional. My work submits the clichéd image as a contemporary object.” The monumental work offered here exemplifies Saunders’ use of scale, attention to detail and choice of subject. In “Arrangement of Appalachian Objects No. 1,” he creates a powerful vertical design composed of tipped planes of sun-dappled stone that interlock with architectural certainty, an effect accentuated by the deep shadows which make the rocks seem to loom with weighty dimensionality.

These Conditions of Sale are binding and enforceable on all bidders and buyers. 1. WARRANTY WAIVERS; LIABILITY LIMITATIONS. All lots are sold “AS IS, WHERE IS” – WITH ALL FAULTS and WITH NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES. No statement or description regarding attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, value, size, or quality of a lot, whether made orally at the auction or at any other time, in electronic messages, online, in writing, or in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere, is or shall be construed to be a guarantee, an express or implied warranty, or assumption of liability, obligation, or responsibility. The bidder or buyer WAIVES any such warranty, WAIVES any warranty of fitness for ordinary use or for any intended use, and further WAIVES any warranty against redhibitory vices and defects, whether latent, hidden, or apparent, and whether imposed by the Louisiana Civil Code or any other applicable statute, law, jurisprudence, or legal authority. The buyer further WAIVES any rights or remedies in redhibition to a return or reduction of the purchase price for any lot, including for any lot with any defect rendering the lot useless, inconvenient, or of diminished usefulness. All sales are final, without exception.
Each bidder and buyer agrees and acknowledges that: (a) the bidder or buyer is not relying on Neal Auction Company’s actual, perceived, or expressed skill, expertise, experience, knowledge, or judgment in deciding to purchase any lot; (b) no oral, written, or electronic statement or description in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere regarding attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, quality, size, or value is the cause of or reason behind the buyer’s purchase of any lot; (c) the buyer would have purchased any lot regardless of any oral, written, or electronic statement or description about attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, quality, size, or value, made in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere; (d) Neal Auction Company did not know, nor should it have known that attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, size, quality, or expressed value is the cause or reason why the buyer decides to purchase any lot; (e) the buyer’s purchase of any lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; (f) Neal Auction Company did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral, written, or electronic statement or description in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere would cause a pecuniary or nonpecuniary loss to any bidder or buyer; (g) the bidder or buyer has had the opportunity prior to bidding to make independent inspections of, and conduct due diligence on, all lots being offered; (h) there is no inspection or examination period after the auction bidding; (i) the bidder’s or buyer’s failure to be fully informed as to the attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, quality, size, or value of a lot will not be grounds for any reduction of the purchase price or rescission of the sale; (j) Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for the presence of lead-based paint or any other environmental or other hazard of any lot; (k) Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible to the buyer as to third parties who may claims rights to or interests in any lot; (l) the buyer is buying at the buyer’s sole risk and peril; (m) Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any errors or omissions in any oral, written or electronic statement or description in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere. Each bidder and buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any and all claims arising out of the matters expressed above. All such waivers, releases, and limitations of liability shall apply to Neal Auction Company and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees. 2. Fine Art. Subject to the foregoing Conditions of Sale, WAIVERS OF WARRANTY, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, with respect to authorship of works of fine art, the following phrases have the following meanings: ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, we believe the work is by the artist named.
Attributed to ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, we believe the work may be ascribed to the artist named on the basis of style and period, but our opinion is less certain than in the previous category. Signed “ARTIST” - In our qualified opinion, the signature, monogram, or other indication of authorship is a signature of the artist. School of ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, the work is of the period of the artist named, by a student or a follower of the artist, but not by the artist. Manner of ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, although the work is in the style of the artist named, it is actually of a later period. After ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, the work is a copy of a known work of the artist named.
Bears signature “ARTIST” - In our qualified opinion, although the work bears the signature or monogram of the artist, the work most likely is not that of the artist. 3. Discretionary Rescission. Notwithstanding the foregoing Conditions of Sale, WAIVERS OF WARRANTY, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, Neal Auction Company may in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, consider any reasonable request for rescission of a sale of a work of fine art on the basis of authenticity of authorship only under the following terms, conditions, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, all of which apply, and the buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any other rights, relief or remedies: A. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission of any lot identified by the terms “attributed to,” “signed,” “school of,” “manner of,” “after,” or “bears signature.” B. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission of any lot unless the buyer notifies Neal Auction Company in writing within 25 calendar days from the date of the auction, and returns the lot to Neal Auction Company in the same condition that the lot was in at the time of sale. C. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer presents to Neal Auction Company a written document signed by a recognized art expert acceptable to Neal Auction Company that the lot in question is a forgery. D. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission to any person (including but not limited to the original buyer’s heirs, legatees, assigns, transferees, or subsequent purchasers) other than the original buyer, and any rights or interests of the original buyer are not transferrable, inheritable, or assignable. E. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission when: (a) there is a conflict of expert opinion as to the authorship; (b) expert opinion supported authorship at the time of auction, although expert opinion may have changed afterward; and (c) scientific or other tests, examinations, investigations, research, or processes that were unavailable, expensive, or impractical at the time of the auction have revealed since that time that the author, character, condition, kind, provenance, period, quality, or value Neal Auction Company believed to be accurate at the time of sale was inaccurate. In any dispute between Neal Auction Company and the bidder or buyer regarding authorship of a work of fine art, rescission of the sale and refund of the purchase price paid shall be the buyer’s sole recourse or remedy, if
124
any is available. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, agents, insurers, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any damages (including compensatory, general, incidental, consequential, exemplary, or special damages), non-pecuniary losses, costs, expenses, injury, mental anguish, lost profits, attorneys’ fees, or any other monetary, declaratory, equitable, or injunctive relief or remedy. The buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any and all such damages, relief, and remedies. AUCTION BIDDING AND SALE 1. The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the highest and best bid on each lot. The auctioneer may decide that any original bid is not commensurate with the value of the lot offered, or that any advance thereafter is not of sufficient amount, and the auctioneer may reject or refuse to recognize that bid or advance.
2. At the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer, whether in person or absentee, thereupon assumes the obligation to pay for the offered lot, and shall pay the full purchase price for the lot, which shall include the hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium, and all applicable taxes, charges, and costs. 3. Title to the offered lot shall pass to the bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer upon payment of the full purchase price for the lot, which shall include the hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium, and all applicable taxes, charges, and costs. The buyer thereupon assumes full risk, obligation, and responsibility for the lot. 4. At any time before the sale of a lot, Neal Auction Company reserves the right to withdraw the lot or any part of the lot, to combine lots, or to separate items within a lot. 5.
No lots will be released before the end of the auction.
6. If the buyer fails to comply with any of these Conditions of Sale, Neal Auction Company reserves the right to (a) hold such defaulting buyer liable, obligated, and responsible for the total amount due and to commence legal proceedings to recover the entire amount along with interest, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs; (b) charge outstanding amounts to the buyer’s credit card; (c) apply any payments to outstanding amounts chosen by Neal Auction Company notwithstanding the instructions of the buyer; (d) cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payment made by the buyer; (e) resell the lot without reserve at public auction, online-only auction, or privately on seven calendar days’ notice to the buyer; (f) enforce specific performance of the sale; (g) require a deposit in future auctions; (h) exclude the buyer from future auctions or bidding on particular lots; (i) exercise the rights and remedies of a person holding security and/or privilege over property in Neal Auction Company’s possession, whether by pledge, security interest or any other mechanism, to the full extent allowed under Louisiana law, and Neal Auction Company may hold the property of the buyer as collateral security for the buyer’s obligations; (j) and/or take such other actions allowed by law in Neal Auction Company’s sole discretion. If Neal Auction Company resells the lot, the defaulting buyer shall be liable, obligated, and responsible for the payment of any deficiency in the purchase price and any damages, including but not limited to all costs and expenses of both sales, such as, by way of example only, storage, handling, insurance, repairs, illustrations, consultations, examinations, moving, shipping, promotions, advertising, reasonable attorneys’ fees, commissions, and incidental damages.
7. Virtually all lots offered have been subject to use over a considerable period of time. No mention of cracks, scratches, chips, tears, breaks, weaknesses, or any damages or wear will be included in oral, written, or electronic statements or descriptions in the catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, or literature. Condition reports may be provided upon request, but condition reports may not mention all cracks, scratches, chips, defects, hazards, tears, breaks, weaknesses, or other damages or wear. Neal Auction Company makes no representations or warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of any information or description in a condition report or elsewhere, whether oral, written, electronic, or online. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to decline to provide a condition report for any specific lot, at its sole discretion. 8. Neither high nor low estimates in a catalogue, website, advertising, correspondence, literature, or elsewhere should be relied on as a representation, prediction, appraisal, guarantee, or warranty that a particular lot will sell for a particular price or that a particular lot has a particular value.
9. Neal Auction Company has absolute discretion to admit a bidder to the auction premises, to expel a bidder from the auction premises, or to refuse a bidder from participating in the auction. 10. Neal Auction Company and its auctioneers shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for failure to recognize or execute any bids for any reason whatsoever, or for no reason. Bidders and buyers WAIVE and RELEASE any rights to damages, and equitable, declaratory, and injunctive relief arising out of the failure or rejection of any bid, or any errors or omissions relating to the bidding process. 11.
Interfering with the auction in any way is prohibited.
13.
Canvassing or solicitating on the auction premises is prohibited.
12. Bid rigging is strictly prohibited. Any agreement, understanding, or arrangement not to bid against another or otherwise to dampen the bidding is unlawful. The auctioneer reserves the right to bid on behalf of the consignor for the protection of the consignor if this illegal activity by two or more bidders is detected, disclosed, alleged, or suspected. 14. The auctioneer has the sole discretion as to the increments of bidding, the recognition of any bid, the acceptance of the final bid, and resolving any disputes among bidders.
15. Neal Auction Company represents the consignors only and is not acting as agent or representative of bidders or buyers. The payment of the buyer’s premium by the buyer does not indicate a dual agency relationship. Neal Auction Company is to be paid a fee or commission by the consignor pursuant to a separate written agreement between the consignor and Neal Auction Company. The consignor is the seller of the lot sold. Neal Auction Company is the consignment agent or representative, not the seller. 16. The successful bidder is obligated to pay the purchase price in full unless Neal Auction Company has consented in writing at the time of the bidder’s registration that the bidder is acting as an agent on behalf of an identified person and that said principal is obligated to pay the purchase price in full. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to require an advance deposit for such bids.
17. Prior to placing any bid, all bidders must complete a standard Neal Auction Company Registration Form in use at the time of the auction. 18.
Dealers must provide Neal Auction Company with proper documentation prior to bidding.
20.
Bids are required to be made in U.S. dollars.
19.
First time bidders are required to produce a valid state-issued identification card or passport.
21. Neal Auction Company may require a bidder or buyer at any time to produce financial, banking, or trade references and information.
22. All bidders are required to provide credit card information (such as but not limited to the type of card, card number, name as it appears on the card, billing zip code, expiration date, and security code).
23. All bidders are required to select, and notify Neal Auction Company of, a method of payment (cash, check, wire, or credit card) in writing at the time of registration. 24. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to describe or to make photographic, video, or audio recordings of the auction, or any part thereof, and to publish such descriptions, photographs and/or recordings.
25. Lots may be offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum hammer price below which the lot will not be sold, for the protection of the consignor. Such reserve will not exceed the low estimate for the lot. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot by placing a bid on behalf of the consignor, auctioneer, or an absentee bidder that is below the reserve. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the consignor, auctioneer, or absentee bidder up to the amount of the reserve, by placing consecutive bids or by bidding in response to other bidders. Neal Auction Company may sell a lot at a hammer price below the reserve at its discretion, subject to its agreement with the consignor. ABSENTEE/TELEPHONE/ONLINE BIDS 1. All absentee bids and/or telephone bids must be received by Neal Auction Company by 5 p.m. Central Time the Thursday prior to the auction. 2. All arrangements for bidding should be made as early as possible. Telephone bidding will be taken at the discretion of Neal Auction Company. Each lot must have a minimum low estimate of $500 for telephone bidding. Absentee bids are accepted for any lots regardless of estimate, at the discretion of Neal Auction Company.
3. Neal Auction Company intends to endeavor to protect the confidentiality of absentee/telephone bids. In the event that the identity of absentee/telephone bidders or buyers or of the amounts of absentee/ telephone bids is disclosed, Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for such disclosure, and each bidder and buyer WAIVES and RELEASES Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) from any claims arising out of such disclosure. 4. Neal Auction Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to require that any advance bids be accompanied by a security deposit.
5. Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any failure, design flaw, error, act, omission, or negligence of third party sites or their agents. Bidders WAIVE and RELEASE any rights to damages and equitable, declaratory, and injunctive relief and remedies arising therefrom.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Unless other arrangements are made and confirmed in writing by Neal Auction Company, all lots must be removed within 15 calendar days of the auction. On the first business day following that time period, any lots remaining in the Neal Auction Company gallery may be turned over to a storage facility, at Neal Auction Company’s discretion. The buyer will be responsible for all handling and storage charges. Handling charges shall be a minimum of $50 per lot. Storage costs shall be a minimum charge of $50 per month per lot. Storage charges accrue monthly and must be paid in full before any lots purchased by the buyer are released. At its discretion, Neal Auction Company may charge the full amount of any storage and handling charges, on a periodic basis, on the buyer’s credit card, including interest at the rate of one and one-half percent per month.
All purchased lots will be handled and stored at the buyer’s sole risk and peril. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for handling or storage, or for any damage to or loss of, any lot after the sale. The buyer WAIVES and RELEASES all such claims against Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees). INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
Neal Auction Company retains the copyright and other intellectual property rights to all photographs, video, illustrations, text, and other works in its catalogue, website, advertising, correspondence, literature, and elsewhere. Such photographs, video, illustrations, text, and other works may not be used, copied, published, exhibited, revised, or displayed without the prior written permission of Neal Auction Company. Neal Auction Company and the consignor make no representation or warranty that the buyer of a lot will acquire any copyright or other intellectual property right or interest in the lot. IMPORT/EXPORT
9. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to record any telephone bidding or conversation relating to said bidding, or any part thereof, and to publish said recordings. By participating in telephone bidding, the bidder consents to such recording and publication, notwithstanding the laws or regulations of the state or jurisdiction of the bidder.
Lots made of or incorporating endangered or protected wildlife materials, irrespective of age or amount of material, may require a license or certificate authorizing export from the United States as well as relevant authorizations from the country of import. It is the responsibility of the bidder or buyer to determine and be satisfied that the requirements of any applicable laws and regulations applying to the transportation, whether international or interstate, can be met before bidding. The inability of a buyer to transport lots containing endangered or protected wildlife material is not a basis for cancellation or rescission of the sale or discount of the purchase price. Although licenses may be obtainable to export certain types of endangered species, some types may not be exported at all, and other types may not be resold in certain states in the United States. Neal Auction Company cannot assist the bidder or buyer in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and bidders and buyers can be given no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. Each bidder should verify with an attorney or qualified shipping company if uncertain as to whether a lot is subject to export/import license and certificate requirements and any other restrictions or prohibitions on the interstate transportation or exportation from the United States. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any oral, written, or electronic advice given or representations made by it or by any shipping company, legal counsel, or other person. Buyers WAIVE and RELEASE any and all claims against Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) relating to such advice and representations.
PAYMENT
MANDATORY AND EXCLUSIVE FORUM SELECTION; CHOICE OF LAW
6. Prior to placing any absentee, telephone, or online bid, all bidders are required to complete the applicable Registration Form prior to such bidding.
7. In the event of ambiguity, uncertainty, or discrepancy, the lot number and not the lot description on any bid will be deemed to be the lot on which the bid is made. 8. If more than one absentee bid on a particular lot is received with the same maximum bid amount, and that bid amount is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the bidder whose absentee bid was accepted first by Neal Auction Company after receiving it. If a bid placed on a lot by a bidder who is physically present at the auction is identical to an absentee bid for the lot and is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the person who is physically present at the auction. If a bid placed on a lot by a bidder who is present at the auction (in person or by telephone) is identical to an absentee bid for the lot and is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the person who is present at the auction (in person or by telephone).
1. The successful bidder (except a successful online bidder) shall pay a buyer’s premium in the amount of 25% of the hammer price on each lot up to and including $200,000, plus 15% of the hammer price greater than $200,000. For payments made by cash, check, or wire transfer (except by online bidders) within 15 calendar days of the auction, the buyer’s premium will be discounted to 22%. 2. The successful online bidder shall pay a buyer’s premium in the amount of 28% of the hammer price on each lot. A discount for payments made by cash, check, or wire transfer is not available for purchases made by online bidders. 3.
In the event of any dispute, the Neal Auction Company sale record is conclusive.
4. Unless exempt by law, the buyer will be required to pay Louisiana and local taxes, and, if applicable, any federal luxury or other tax, on the total purchase price. 5. Documentation of tax exemption must be provided upon registration. Billing name and address of a bidder must agree with that on the sales tax exemption certificate. 6. Payment in full of the purchase price must be made by the successful bidder in U.S. Dollars within 15 calendar days of the auction. Interest charges of one and one-half percent per month shall apply to invoices paid after this period expires. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to require payment in full of the purchase price immediately following declaration of the successful bidder. 7. Payment for all jewelry purchases must be made by cash, check or wire transfer.
8. VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express are accepted for payment of invoices (except jewelry) up to $25,000 per buyer. 9. Checks must be drawn on a U.S. bank. All lots shall be held by Neal Auction Company until the check clears.
10. The buyer’s signature on a registration form (or other writing with the buyer’s credit card number) gives Neal Auction Company permission to charge the buyer’s credit card the full amount of the buyer’s invoice if full payment is not received within 15 calendar days of the auction or, in Neal Auction Company’s discretion, to charge the buyer’s credit card later, with interest at the rate of one and one-half percent per month. PACKING, MOVING, SHIPPING, AND DELIVERY
Neal Auction Company may furnish information on packers, movers, or shippers for bidders or buyers making packing, moving, shipping, and delivery arrangements, but Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible therefore, and buyers retain packers, movers, and shippers at their own risk and peril. Shipping, moving, packing, and delivery arrangements and agreements are strictly between the buyer and the shipper, mover, or packer. Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any damage to property, including vehicles, or for any personal injuries of buyer or any third parties involved in packing, moving, shipping, or delivery. Buyers WAIVE and RELEASE Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) from any and all claims relating to packing, moving, shipping, and delivery of purchased lots, and any damage or injuries to persons or property arising therefrom.
Any action of any nature brought by a bidder or buyer against Neal Auction Company (and/or its owners, directors, officers, representatives, insurers, and/or employees) and/or the consignor of any lot in any court, whether federal or state, shall be brought exclusively in Orleans Parish, Louisiana. Every bidder and buyer agrees to submit to jurisdiction and venue in federal or state court in Orleans Parish, Louisiana, waives all objections or challenges to such jurisdiction or venue, and waives any rights to jurisdiction or venue in any other forum. Any dispute between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company (and/or its owners, directors, officers, representatives, insurers, and/or employees) and/or the consignor of any lot shall be governed by the law of the State of Louisiana, notwithstanding any conflicts of laws principles. MISCELLANEOUS LEGAL PROVISIONS
If any part of these Conditions of Sale is held to be invalid, null, or unenforceable, that part shall be reformed so as to implement the intent of the parties as expressed herein, and any such holding shall not affect the remaining provisions of these Conditions of Sale, which shall remain in full force and effect, subject to reformation to implement the intent of the parties as expressed herein. The paragraph headings contained herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Conditions of Sale. All prior and contemporaneous representations, communications, and agreements, if any, between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company (and any of its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) relating to any of the lots offered for sale or to the auction or sale are hereby superseded and merged into these Conditions of Sale, which are the entire and only contract between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company relating to the subject matter herein. Any modifications, amendments, or waivers of these Conditions of Sale must be made in a writing signed by both Neal Auction Company and the bidder or buyer. In the event of any disputes arising out of the auction or sale of lots or these Conditions of Sale, Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated or responsible for any general, special, exemplary, incidental, or consequential damages (including but not limited to lost profits and attorneys’ fees). Every bidder and buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any rights to such damages. This LIMITATION OF LIABILITY does not, and is not intended to, enlarge or expand any rights or interests of a bidder or buyer that are restricted or limited elsewhere in these Conditions of Sale (including but not limited to the WARRANTY WAIVERS and LIABILITY LIMITATIONS set forth herein). These Conditions of Sale constitute a binding legal contract between Neal Auction Company and each bidder or buyer. Each bidder and buyer acknowledges having read and understood these Conditions of Sale, WAIVERS OF WARRANTY, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY. All bidders and buyers further acknowledge that they enter into these Conditions of Sale of their own free will, with full authority, and under no duress or coercion.
