ESTATE OF WAYNE LAKE As Neal Auction enters its fortieth year of building collections, there is perhaps no better collection to represent than that of loyal patron and friend of the gallery, Dr. Wesley Wayne Lake, Jr. Dr. Lake faithfully attended auctions from the company’s earliest days on Magazine Street and amassed a tremendous collection of regional and American art, furniture and decorative objects. Dr. Lake was a native of Pass Christian, MS and lived in Uptown New Orleans for most of his adult life. A graduate of The Hill School in Pottstown, PA and Princeton University, he received his Doctor of Medicine from Tulane Medical School in 1963 and served as Captain in the U.S. Air Force Reserve from 1964 to1966. Dr. Lake practiced Internal Medicine and Allergy and Immunology in New Orleans for forty-six years and held professorships at Tulane University and Louisiana State University. He was a member of the Boston Club of New Orleans and New Orleans Lawn Tennis Club, enjoyed renovating historic properties in the city and was a connoisseur of art, antiques and wine. Neal Auction is honored to present select objects from the Estate of Dr. Lake.

CAROLINE O’LEARY IRELAND A larger than life personality, she modeled for Christian Dior, was painted by Andy Warhol, and was both a gourmet cook and an accomplished deep sea fisherman. Appropriately, her favorite expression was “shoot for the moon, even if you miss you will land among the stars.” Caroline met Captain Mike O’Leary when she was modeling in New York in the late 1940’s. Soon after they married in New Orleans and began their life together at the St. Charles Hotel, where Mike was vice-president and general manager. He served as President of the New Orleans Hotel Association and the Louisiana Hotel Men’s Association. He was a founder of the Quarterbacks’s Club and a member of the Knights of Columbus. Caroline and Mike’s only child passed away at the age of three and Captain O’Leary passed away shortly after. Although her early life was beset by tragedy, she bravely picked up the pieces and took on the world. She found happiness again when she married Charles Ireland, Director and Chairman of the Board of Vulcan Materials Company. Though she left New Orleans to live in Alabama and Florida she maintained life long friendships in New Orleans and always carried New Orleans in her heart. Nationally known for her philanthropic activities, Mrs. Ireland’s focus was educational institutions and museums. She served on the boards of the New Orleans Museum of Art and the Birmingham Museum of Art . In 2006, she donated her collection of Faberge miniature eggs to NOMA. She was President of the Caroline P. and Charles W. Ireland Foundation, which established the Caroline P. and Charles W. Ireland Endowment for Scholarly Distinction, Distinguished Visiting Scholar Award and International Students Fund at the University of Alabama.

Note: William Michael Harnett was born in Ireland in 1848 and immigrated to Philadelphia with his parents when he was an infant. While he is primarily known for his meticulously rendered trompe l’oeil paintings, he started his artistic career as an engraver and eventually enrolled in the Antiques class at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. He later took classes at Cooper Union and the National Academy of Design in New York. Between 1874 and 1876, Harnett switched his preferred medium to oil on canvas and executed a small group—only four of this scale are known—of stunningly detailed still lifes of fruit, including the important lot offered here entitled “Fruit and Asparagus.” This rare group of still lifes serves as a fascinating precursor to his celebrated trompe l’oeil compositions. “Fruit and Asparagus” is a skilled display of texture and color with hyperrealistic renderings that clearly lay the groundwork for his later paintings. The pebbled, round bodies of the oranges noticeably contrast with the smooth ceramic vase and rough,
hairy coconut. The crisp pages of the newspaper lend depth to a relatively shallow plane and add a layer of dimensionality that is described in great detail in a letter from William H. Gerdts: “Deceptive illusionism is the key to Harnett’s painting as it was not to the previous generations. And to heighten that, Harnett had introduced the newspaper which stretched beyond the edge of the marble table, that is, beyond the picture plane and seemingly out into the space of the viewer. His mastery of the nature of newspaper and the illusion of printing on it… are qualities he will repeat over and over again in the future and which will be taken up by his myriad of followers but it is found here for the first time.” Ref.: “William Michael Harnett”.

Note: Charles Woodbury was a prolific painter born and raised in Lynn, Massachusetts. While studying as a mechanical engineering student at MIT, he began exhibiting his paintings at the Boston Art Club. For six months Woodbury studied painting at the Academie Julian in Paris. After he returned to New England, he founded the Ogunquit Art Association in Ogunquit, Maine where he became one of the most sought-after art teachers. He was president of the Boston Watercolor Society and became a member of the National Academy of Design in New York in 1907. His plein air paintings capture the natural beauty of the New England coast where he painted in “verbs, not nouns.” The lot offered here showcases one of Woodbury’s often visited subjects: women relaxing on the coast. In it, the serene beach goers gaze at their gentle shadows, letting the sand fall through their fingers. Woodbury depicts the scene with a delicate hand, using an impressionist palette to explore the play of light and darkness on the shore. Ref.: Vose, Abbott and Robert C. Vose III. Charles H.

When he was fifteen, Gobbato began studying art at the Liceo Artistico in Milan, then transferred to the Istituto d’Arte in Venice where he earned his Maestro d’Arte in 1942. Shortly thereafter Gobbato would lose friends and his family home in World Ward II. After the war, Imero and his brother, Armando, traveled around South America looking for employment. Gobbato then returned to Italy and boarded a boat en route to New York City where he met his future wife, Josette Ardouin. Together they moved thirty-one times in fourteen years around the United States and Italy. In 1964, the couple settled in Camden Harbor, Maine where Gobbato established Two Harbors Studio and focused on his artistic practice. Though his primary passion was painting, he was also interested in printmaking, wood carving, illustrating children’s books, boat design, and playing his violin. In the lot offered here, Gobbato illustrates a quiet docking scene. The water shimmers and shines through the cast shadows of the sailboats as the reflection of each vessel speckles the blue marina with warmth and color.

Strange True Stories of Louisiana (Illustrated Edition). Dodo Press, 2006, cover. Note: Neal Auction would like to thank R. Paul Fitch for his assistance with the cataloguing of these lots. Artist, Etienne Constant Carlin traveled from his ancestral home in Clermont, France arriving in New York City on July 4, 1850. He stayed only a short time in New York before traveling to Southern Louisiana, surprisingly bypassing New Orleans to settle in Bayou Teche, the home of Carlin patron, prosperous sugar planter and state senator Gabriel Laclaire Fuselier. Carlin had frequent commissions and painted numerous portraits of the Fuselier and Frère families among other prominent members of the “Foreign French” community, so called to differentiate themselves from the French-Canadian Cajuns that also populated the Bayou Teche region. Carlin lived and painted portraits of wealthy patrons in the area from 1850 to 1855. His extant portraits speak to his position as a much sought-after artist of original portraiture but additionally as an artist commissioned to copy portraits that were made by his contemporaries and predecessors. Marie Louise Marthe de Blanc was born in Natchitoches in 1777 to Commandant Louis-Charles de Blanc and Elizabeth D’Erneville. De Blanc was a Commandant of the Post of Natchitoches, a post his father held before him. He served as Captain of the Second Company of Natchitoches and fought under General Galvez in the American Revolution. 42
Although it is uncertain when, De Blanc moved his family from northwest Louisiana to the Attakapas country in the southwest area of Louisiana and served as the Commandant of the Post des Attakapas. Carlin painted the portraits of Marie Louise Marthe de Blanc and Commandant de Blanc in the 1850s after de Blanc had passed (1826) and Marie Louise Marthe was an elderly woman. The style of portraiture is altogether unlike that of Carlin and closer to the style of portraits painted by José Francisco Xavier de Salazar y Mendoza, foremost painter in Spanish Colonial Louisiana from 1785-1802. A period more consistent with the age of sitters Commandant Louis-Charles de Blanc and his daughter Marie Louise Marthe de Blanc in their Carlin copy portraits. It is likely, based on the years the works were completed, that Carlin was commissioned to paint the copy portraits in approximately 1852 and then commissioned to draw the pastel portrait of the young Corrine Mathilde Antoinette de Blanc great-granddaughter of Commandant de Blanc in 1855 when the sitter was five years of age.

219. Richard Clague, Jr. (French/Louisiana, 1821-1873), “Street Scene at the Commons”, watercolor on paper laid on board, signed lower left, “New Orleans Museum of Art” exhibition label with title on backing, sight 8 3/4 in. x 10 3/4 in., framed with faded artist plaque, overall 21 3/4 in. x 1 9 1/2 in. x 1 in. [$10000/15000] Provenance: Mrs. Theodore Dennery, New Orleans, LA; thence by descent in the family. Exh.: “Richard Clague Retrospective”, New Orleans Museum of Art, New Orleans, LA, Nov. 17 - Dec. 30, 1974. Note: Born in Paris in 1821, Richard Clague’s childhood and youth was divided between France and New Orleans, the home of his French Creole mother. He established a near permanent studio in the city in 1857 and had focused primarily on landscape painting by the early 1860s. The watercolor offered here is one of only a few surviving examples by the artist and was included in the seminal Richard Clague exhibition at the New Orleans Museum of Art of 1974, alongside a stylistically similar watercolor of “Treme Market” dated 1863. Although “Street Scene at the Commons” is not dated, the works were likely completed around the same time. The exact location portrayed in Clague’s watercolor appears to be the corner of Canal and Treme in a neighborhood that was at the time referenced as “The Commons.” The houses, buildings and view of Clague’s street scene are a near identical match to those in the pencil drawing by Alfred Rudolph Waud captioned “Cor. [sic] of Canal and Treme - N Common” (1965.90.316.2) as well as the wood engraving “Corner of Canal & Treme St.” (1974.25.11.46) delineated by Waud and engraved by Samuel S. Kilburn, Jr. for a newspaper series called “Sketches of the Flood in New Orleans.” Both of these works on paper are in The Historic New Orleans Collection, with the latter illustrated in Rouhlac Toledano and Mary Louise Christovich’s New Orleans Architecture Volume VI: Faubourg Treme and the Bayou Road. Two other known watercolors by Clague of city scenes are “Rose Nicaud’s Coffee Stand at the French Market” in the collection of the Louisiana State Museum and “Halfway House” held in a private collection. Clague rarely depicted urban architecture and seems to have found watercolor his preferred medium for doing so. The future founder of the Louisiana landscape painting tradition could not resist the allure of the New Orleans streets that have captivated so many artists over the centuries. The diagonal composition, fine line work and soft, blended shading display Clague’s French academic training, while the inclusion of figures and lone dog in the street add life to the scene. This exceptionally rare work by Clague offers a unique viewpoint into one of Louisiana’s most influential artists. Ref.: Christovich, Mary Louise and Roulhac Toledano.

220. New Orleans School, mid-19th c., “Portrait of a Young Gentleman, thought to be a New Orleans Free Man of Color”, oil on canvas, unsigned, 8 3/4 in. x 6 3/4 in., period frame. [$10000/15000] Provenance: New Orleans Auction Galleries, Jan. 21, 2001, lot 1127. Exh.: “In Search of Julien Hudson: Free Artist of Color in Pre-Civil War New Orleans”, The Historic New Orleans Collection, New Orleans, LA, Jan. 20 - Apr. 20, 2011; Gibbes Museum of Art, Charleston, SC, July 22 - Oct. 16, 2011; Worcester Art Museum, Worcester, MA, Dec. 10, 2011 - Mar. 11, 2012; and illustrated in the accompanying catalogue, fig. 67, p. 90. Note: The small painting offered here is a fascinating window into nineteenthcentury depictions of race and the clues they present to scholars working in this important field today. Previously described at auction as “Circle of Julien Hudson and Jules Lion,” the portrait of a young gentleman, thought to be a New Orleans free man of color, is likely not attributable to either artist due to clear stylistic differences. This fact does not make him any less interesting, however, as the work was included in The Historic New Orleans Collection exhibition “In Search of Julien Hudson: Free Artist of Color in Pre-Civil War New Orleans” in 2011. The rarity of the depiction makes it an important part of the study of both artists of color and their subjects in New Orleans in the nineteenth century.

289.

[$60000/80000] Provenance: Guarisco Gallery, Washington, D.C.; Michael W. Murphy, El Dorado, AR. Note: This lot has been confirmed by Marie-Anne Destrebecq-Martin and will be included in the forthcoming catalogue raisonne. Henri-Jean Guillaume Martin was born in Toulouse in 1860. In 1879, he moved to Paris to study at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts where he trained under the tutelage of Jean-Paul Laurens. He experienced early acclaim for his work, exhibiting at the Salon des Artistes Franҫais starting in 1880 and winning a medal in 1883. He also won a scholarship to study in Italy, which would mark his transition into a new loose and more lyrical style. In 1889, he started experimenting with pointillism, and his shift into the Neo and Post-Impressionist styles would define his mid-to-late oeuvre. In the painting entitled “Barques dans le Port Collioure” on offer here, Martin layers stippled darts of paint to create a composition that is rich in color and dimension. The striking, white diagonal sail of the boat cuts through the blue plane and leads the eye from the upper center of the painting towards the bottom half where a neat row of vibrant boats line the shore. The composition is framed by a shaded stone wall on the left and an angled ledge in the foreground flanking the blue boat in the basin. Martin’s cropping of the scene lends a sense of poetic intimacy to the view, and one can almost hear the soft lapping of the water and feel the intense brightness of the sun.

335. Rare and Important American Chippendale Mahogany China Table, Eastern Virginia, Tidewater Region, 1760-1775, possibly workshop of Anthony Hay (Williamsburg, c. 1700-1775), white pine secondary wood (by microanalysis), reticulated gallery, rectangular flame figured one panel top, bead molded frieze, pierced brackets, four Marlborough legs, each with ogee molded panel with distinctive wave terminal and chamfered inner edge, gutta feet, h. 29 in., w. 31 1/2 in., d. 20 1/4 in. [$50000/100000]

Note: Virginia scholar Wallace Gussler describes “six notable china tables” from the workshop of Anthony Hay (Williamsburg, 1700-1775) in his seminal 1989 article “The Tea Tables of Eastern Virginia.” The lot offered here is an important discovery of a seventh Hay table in this group which includes a table owned by George Washington at Mount Vernon and a table descended in the Lewis and Byrd families now at the National Museum in Washington. The elegant and restrained style of this rare china table is indicative of the late colonial southern coast cabinetmakers like Anthony Hay. A rare surviving item from the region and period, this table displays distinctive designs on its gallery, brackets, legs and feet as well as retention of much of its old surface. Variations on the distinctive leg design on this lot are seen on three other tables attributed to the Hay workshop. An Anthony Hay urn stand from the DuPont collection at Winterthur (acc. 1952.0063) has brackets, straight legs with ogee panel and guttae feet very similar for those seen here. Interestingly, the Winterthur table lacks the original gallery, and the gallery on the table offered here provides scholars a notion of gallery form. A 1775 pembroke table from the Janet Kimbrough collection has four chamfered corners on each leg similar to the interior chamfered corners on this table and similar guttae feet. Additionally, a marble top sideboard table attributed to Hay with frieze, legs and feet like those on the previous examples was sold by Neal Auction Company as lot 667 on February 19, 2005 and now displayed in the dining room at George Mason’s home, Gunston Hall, Lorton, Virginia. Lastly, the form and many carved details on this table suggest inspiration from Chippendale’s Director (3rd Edition, 1762), the publication most used by master American cabinetmakers. Plate No XXXIV illustrating a China Table and No XXXVI a Sideboard Table are particularly instructive.

562. Robert Wadsworth Grafton (American, 1876-1936, active Louisiana, 1916-1920), “Reflections of Luggar’s Landing, New Basin Canal”, 1918, oil on canvas board, signed and dated lower right, artist name inscribed en verso, 16 in. x 20 in., framed, overall 23 3/4 in. x 27 7/8 in. x 3 1/4 in. [$12000/18000] Provenance: Neal Auction Company, Jan. 30, 2010, lot 324. Note: In the early twentieth century, American Impressionism started flourishing in the Midwest, centered in Indianapolis and South Indiana’s Brown County art colony (which had ties to Chicago). Inspired and encouraged by the artists T.C. Steele, William Forsyth and John Ottis Adams—collectively known as the Hoosier Group—the next generation of artists were motivated to paint landscapes of the world around them. Robert Grafton and his friend and fellow Indiana artist, Louis Oscar Griffith, often visited New Orleans where they were captivated by the historic buildings and waterways that made up the city as well as the lively art community which was largely centered in the French Quarter. In the painting offered here, Grafton used thick, lush brushwork to beautifully render the reflections of the boats in the water of the New Basin Canal. Luggers were small single sail wooden boats used regionally to bring seafood (mainly oysters) from the coast to the city, and they were extremely important to the economy of New Orleans during the 1914 to 1920 period in which Grafton painted. As shipping and refrigeration technology evolved, the canal became less and less important, and by 1950 it was completely filled in to create the Lafitte Corridor, Pontchartrain Express Way and West End Boulevard. Grafton’s painting captures the vibrancy and color of a very particular time in the city’s history.

[$700/1000] Note: Rise Delmar Ochsner was born and raised in New York City where her mother was an artist. She graduated from Columbia University and Tulane Medical School in New Orleans, where she practiced as an ophthalmologist for almost twenty years before retiring. She had discovered her own love of art while at Columbia and continued to paint through medical school and beyond. Ochsner earned commissions to paint Mick Jagger for a poster for his New Orleans tour stop, a portrait of Queen Noor of Jordan, Carol Burnett’s cat and fifty famous chefs for the Mondavi Winery. She relocated to Santa Barbara in 1995 to be a full-time artist, however, missing medicine, she returned to the practice in 2007. After nineteen years away, Delmar Ochsner moved back to New Orleans where she lives today saying: “I came back for the hugs…from my patients and my friends, and I’m delighted to be here again.” Her works have been featured in numerous exhibitions locally and nationally. In addition to rock stars and royalty, Delmar Ochsner captured many influential and prominent New Orleanians, such as the portrait offered here of Phyllis Sugarman Dennery. Originally from New York City, Phyllis married Moise Dennery in 1941, and once settled in his hometown of New Orleans, she became an active volunteer in civic and religious projects, including the founding and development of WYES-TV. Perhaps her longest-lasting contribution was a section of federal law bearing her name, the Dennery Amendment, to the Telecommunications Act of 1978, which set a monetary value on the time volunteer workers contribute to public stations and let the stations count that as “income” in applying for federal matching money. She also founded La Fete, an annual series of summertime activities, and compiled two cookbooks, Dining In – New Orleans and a sequel, featuring recipes from New Orleans restaurants. Delmar Ochsner’s loose and lush style in her depiction of Dennery is complemented by the scale and colorful boldness that typifies her work and perfectly suits this remarkable sitter.

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 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.”

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.
126
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 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. 21.
First time bidders are required to produce a valid state-issued identification card or passport. 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. 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). 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. PAYMENT
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.
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
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. MANDATORY AND EXCLUSIVE FORUM SELECTION; CHOICE OF LAW
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.
7. Payment for all jewelry purchases must be made by cash, check or wire transfer.
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.
9.
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.
8. VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express are accepted for payment of invoices (except jewelry) up to $25,000 per buyer.
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.
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.
