ESTATE OF JAMES H. STONE

620 URSULINES AVE. NEW ORLEANS

James Hiram Stone (1925-2008) was born in New York City. He was a graduate of Deerfield Academy and Williams College and remained an active Williams alumnus, serving as a committee member and donor. During World War II, Stone served as a Lieutenant in the First Marine Division in the United States Marine Corps and would later be recalled by the Marine Reserves during the Korean conflict. In 1952, he founded Stone Oil Company in Cincinnati, which he grew into the billion-dollar publicly traded Stone Energy Corporation.

A serious horseman, Stone was passionate about thoroughbred racing and owned or co-owned several winning runners, including two-time Ascot Gold Cup winner Ardross, Kentucky Derby and Preakness runner-up Menifee, and Black-Eyed Susan Stakes winner Chamrousse.

Stone moved to New Orleans in the 1980s and served as a director of Hibernia National Bank and Newpark Resources. A founder of the National WWII Museum, he was an active and supportive member of his community and was involved in a number of organizations including the Marine Corps Heritage Association, Business Council of New Orleans and the River Region, Tulane Medical Center, New Orleans Symphony and Opera, and the New Orleans Museum of Art. Mr. Stone purchased and resided in the historic residence at 620 Ursulines Ave. The extraordinary mansion was commissioned in 1819 by shipbuilder, Arnaud Magnon who enlisted the services of Claude Gurlie and Joseph Guillot to design and construct the home. The mid-19th century renovation of the house and estate has been attributed to noted New Orleans architect, James Gallier, Sr., and the property has been owned by many renowned citizens, including Jean Baptiste Poeyfarre’s widow, John Slidell, and famous New Orleans painter Alexandre Alaux.

Under Stone’s tenure, the superlative mansion was decorated with the finest and most distinguished of objects. Neal Auction Company is pleased to present a selection of items from the collection including English and American racing trophies; exquisite paintings, such as the Robert Grafton French Quarter scene and George Inness’s evocative “Dawn”; as well as fine furniture and decorative objects.

SELMA PLANTATION WASHINGTON MISSISSIPPI Selma Plantation was built in 1811 by Gerard Brandon in Washington, Mississippi, which at the time was the capital of Mississippi Territory. Brandon’s son, Gerard Chittocque Brandon (1788-1850) became the first native-born governor of Mississippi.

Selma is one of the very few privately owned Mississippi Landmarks, and is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Selma was furnished with period antiques

by Amelia and John Bornman, discerning and studious collectors. Mrs. Bornman was a former chairman of the Bayou Bend Docent Group.

Neal Auction Company is pleased to present select antiques from Selma Plantation.

Provenance: Meredith Long and Company, Houston, TX; Estate of James H. Stone, New Orleans, LA.

Note: Wolf Kahn has been a full-time artist since 1950 and is considered one of the premier landscape artists of the twentieth century. Kahn’s work combines aspects of Realism, Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting for a style distinctively his own. “Kahn is an artist who embodies a synthesis of artistic traits - the modern abstract training of Hans Hofmann, the palette of Matisse, Rothko’s sweeping bands of color, and the atmospheric qualities of American Impressionism.” Kahn sees his landscapes as meditations on the world in which color relates light with subject and in which horizons, nature’s dividing lines, are seamless fusions between sky and land. In the work offered here, the artist’s calligraphic brushstrokes and saturated colors combine to depict a landscape that is simultaneously descriptive and abstract.

Provenance: Acquired from the artist, c. 1980s.

Provenance: Acquired from the artist, c. 1980s.

Note: Bill Binnings, known for his impressive bronze sculptures, dedicated himself to the tricky medium after receiving his MFA from Ohio State in 1971. Binnings completes all of his own casting in his studio-foundry on the Northshore of New Orleans, and his public commissions can be found throughout the South. Recently, Binnings completed and sited two commissioned sculptures of the author, Walker Percy, in locations around Covington, LA to honor his late friend. In the lot offered here, Binning’s gift for conveying movement and grace is well on display.

Entitled “Movement from 5th Position,” the bronze depicts a ballerina precariously balanced on one leg. The fluid lines of the figure paired with the sculpture’s modernist style enhance the elegance of the dancer.

105. George Inness (American, 1825‑1894), “Dawn”, 1888, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, “The Oakland Museum, Oakland, CA”, “The Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Santa Barbara, CA” exhibition labels and “Ollendorf Fine Arts” label on stretcher, 22 in. x 36 in., original frame with brass artist plaque. [$30000/50000]

Provenance: Collection of James William Wellsworth (1849‑1925), Chicago and New York, c, 1989; Sloan & Roman, Inc., New York, 1968; Meredith Long and Company, Houston, TX; Estate of James H. Stone, New Orleans, LA.

Note: As a landscape painter in the New York region during the mid-19th century, George Inness is commonly associated with the Hudson River School, although his paintings, particularly those completed in the late 1800’s, are more tonal and impressionistic in style. He often played with luminosity in his works and was known for his atmospheric, borderline spiritual canvases.

Painted in 1888, the work offered here, “Dawn” demonstrates the somber, moody effect of applying glazes in a thick impasto, infusing the work with the subtle light of morning as the moon sets in the background. In the foreground, a lone figure walks towards the rising sun along a wooded path. The dark and hazy blues and greens of the landscape evoke a sense of isolation while the hint of a faraway village paired with the warm glow of fire offset the remoteness of the scene with signs of life.

107. Helen Maria Turner (American/Louisiana, 1858‑1958), “Mexican Washwoman”, oil on canvas, signed, titled, inscribed and “The National Arts Club, 1935” exhibition label en verso, 16 in. x 14 in., framed. [$15000/25000] Note: Working in the impressionist technique under the tutelage of William Merritt Chase, Helen Maria Turner lived and worked in New Orleans, New York City and Cragsmoor, New York. Turner attained significant critical acclaim in the second half of her career. In 1921, she became only the fourth woman (and first artist from Louisiana) elected to full membership in the National Academy of Design. Six years later, Turner served as the only female juror of the Twenty-Fifth International Exhibition, an honor closely followed by a solo exhibition at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta. Turner has been extoled as an “enduring impressionist” whose greatest talent was “her ability to portray ordinary women doing everyday tasks in everyday places.” In the 1930s, the artist vacationed frequently in Cuernavaca, Mexico, and the painting offered here reveals her appreciation for the area’s culture, architecture and people. Her depiction of a washwoman at work is in keeping with her love of elevating commonplace tasks and displays her extraordinary talent in brushwork and use of color.

108. Robert Wadsworth Grafton (American, 1876‑1936, active New Orleans, 1916‑1920), “Pirate’s Alley at Royal Street, New Orleans”, 1919, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, “Meredith Long & Company” label with artist on backing board, 24 1/4 in. x 16 in., framed with artist plaque. [$40000/60000] Provenance: Meredith Long & Company, Houston, TX; Estate of James H. Stone, New Orleans.

Note: From 1916-1920, Robert Grafton rented a studio in the French Quarter during the winters, sharing space with his friend Louis Oscar Griffith who was also escaping the harsh Midwestern weather. During his time here, Grafton enjoyed painting the many historic views of the city,

particularly those in the area of the French Quarter surrounding St. Louis Cathedral. His beautiful pastel palette greatly complements St. Anthony’s garden as well as the buildings that line Pirate’s Alley, creating the lovely atmospheric effect of a bright sunny day. The alley, which runs along the western side of the cathedral, has a rich and often embellished history, with legends of the pirates Jean and Pierre Lafitte meeting with President Andrew Jackson. While Pierre Lafitte was in fact detained in the “Calabozo,” or prison (which was located next to the cathedral in what is now the Cabildo), he famously escaped in 1814, perhaps through this eponymous alleyway, and eventually both brothers helped the United States Military during the Battle of New Orleans.

109. Dusti Bongé (American/Mississippi, 1903‑1993), “Untitled (Brightly Colored Abstract)”, c. 1980, tempera on paper, signed lower right, 23 3/4 in. x 18 in., framed; accompanied by copy of certificate of authenticity. [$3000/5000]

Note: Widely considered the first Mississippi artist to work consistently in a Modernist style, Dusti Bongé had a prolific artistic career that spanned over fifty-five years. Initially working in a style influenced by Cubism, Bongé experimented with Surrealism in the late 1930s and 1940s. By the mid-1950s, she was working fully in the vein of Abstract Expressionism, as displayed in the later abstract offered here. In 1946, the highly influential Betty Parsons Gallery opened in New York. Bongé forged a strong relationship with the prominent Abstract Expressionist dealer who would represent her for almost three decades, mounting several solo exhibitions of Bongé’s work which were critically well received. Bongé traveled often to New York and was active in the art scene centered around the Betty Parsons Gallery. Among the many prominent artists in this circle, some became close friends, such as Mark Rothko, Barnett Newman, Kenzo Akado and Theodoros Stamos.

112. John Clemmer (American/New Orleans, 1921‑2014), “Triptych”, oil with bronze and Portland cement sandcasting, each signed and dated en verso, each panel 15 in. x 11 in., overall 45 in. x 33 in., unframed. (3 pcs.) [$2000/3000]

Provenance: Estate of James H. Stone, New Orleans.

113. Ida Rittenberg Kohlmeyer (American/New Orleans, 1912‑1997), “Untitled (Abstract Composition)”, oil on masonite, signed lower right, 42 in. x 48 in., framed. [$6000/8000]

Note: This significant Ida Kohlmeyer painting is remarkable for having been painted most likely just before Kohlmeyer met and studied with Hans Hoffman in 1956, making it one of her earliest ventures into abstraction. The neutral palette and expressionistic brushstrokes act as a precursor to her later explorations in color blocks and formations as influenced by her friend and mentor, Mark Rothko, and also demonstrate an artistic kinship to her sister and fellow beloved artist, Mildred Wohl, whose works often explored a similar color palette and aesthetic.

114. Bruno Dufourmantelle (French, b. 1949), “Abstract Composition with Blue, Green and Red”, 1983, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, signed, dated and inscribed en verso, 78 3/4 in. x 63 in., framed. [$7000/10000] Provenance: Estate of James H. Stone, New Orleans, LA.

Note: French artist Bruno Dufourmantelle uses deep colors and layer upon layer of rich paint to create his monumental canvases such as the work offered in this lot. Dufourmantelle, who was featured alongside seven other French artists in the 1986 MOMA P.S. 1 show “Preview: Eight French Painters,” uses an intense color palette to explore the notions of light and dark. The resulting effect is that of atmospheric serenity - a Zen-like composition with allusions to the harmonies of nature. This work succeeds in capturing both the wonder of underwater worlds and the mysterious grandeur of the aurora borealis.

The Last Sitting. New York: William Morrow and Co., 1982, p. 101.

Note: While originally a combat photographer in World War II, George Allen “Slim” Aarons shifted to documenting high society and the super-rich because, as he put it, “I wanted to be on the sunny side of the street.” He turned to Hollywood to search for enchantment and excess and would go on to photograph spreads for Harper’s Bazaar, Life, Holiday and Town & Country magazines. His opulent and detailed photographs of “attractive people in attractive places doing attractive things” have become more and more revered over time and are often considered the precursor to the current image-obsessed content of the social media era.

In the work offered here, Aarons captures the charming awkwardness of a children’s dance class. The pint-sized wallflowers, dressed in full formal regalia, sit in a line of chairs waiting for a turn on the dance floor. While they face the action, collectively displaying a range of emotion from apathy to intense scrutiny, the lens faces them and captures a delightfully candid moment.

127 Jessie Hazel Arms Botke (American/California, 1883‑1971), “Hyacinth Macaws”, oil on canvas mounted to board, signed lower right, 15 3/4 in. x 12 in., framed. [$7000/10000]

Note: An important member of the California School of Impressionism, Jessie Hazel Arms Botke became famous for her colorful and detailed bird depictions. In 1909, Botke moved to New York and joined Herter Looms, a tapestry and manufacturing firm newly founded by the artist Albert Herter.

Herter assigned Botke the task of creating a peacock frieze for the dining room of famed actress Billie Burke, leading to her studies of the birds at the Bronx Zoo and igniting her passion for birds and flora. Botke moved to California in 1915, where she was active in the artistic community and continued her exotic bird paintings along with other subjects. She worked in color woodcut, gouache, mural painting, watercolors, oil, and frequently utilized gold and silver leaf in backgrounds. The hyacinth macaws offered here display the artist’s luminous use of color, expressionist brushstrokes and eye for strong compositions.

[$2000/3000] Provenance: Meredith Long & Company, Houston, TX; Estate of James H. Stone, New Orleans, LA.

Note: French-born Bernard Lamotte attended the prestigious Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and studied under Fernandes-Anne-Piestre Cormon and Lucien Simon. He eventually emigrated from France to New York, which would become his permanent residence. His studio above the famous La Grenouille restaurant was a popular Bohemian haven. There, the gregarious Frenchman would entertain his impressive group of friends, which included all types of creative and intellectual characters such as Marlene Dietrich, Greta Garbo, Charlie Chaplin and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, who wrote Le Petit Prince in Lamotte’s studio in the early 1940s. Lamotte experienced great success during his lifetime and was even commissioned by President John F. Kennedy’s father to paint a mural for the White House pool.

Lamotte would frequently travel back to France to gain inspiration from the quotidian moments of Paris and the French countryside, themes well conveyed in his canvases on offer here. In this work, Lamotte captures the movement and energy of rue des Saules, a busy street in Montmartre.

153. Ida Rittenberg Kohlmeyer (American/New Orleans, 1912‑1997), “Woman No. 4”, 1970, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, “Arthur Roger Gallery” label with artist, title and date en verso, 46 in. x 46 in., framed. [$4000/6000] Provenance: Arthur Roger Gallery, New Orleans, LA.

Note: In this work dated 1970, Kohlmeyer revisits figurative painting after having made her great shift towards abstraction in 1957. Upon reaching a momentary standstill in creativity with her geometric compositions, Kohlmeyer sought inspiration in the form of the female body. The rare canvases from this period such as the work offered here, challenge society’s notions of womanhood and beauty. Art historian David McCarthy writes that at this time women artists who painted the female body were grappling with the notion of representation in specifically “who controlled the body and, in particular, who controlled representations of the body.” Kohlmeyer’s works from this series are poignant and radical in their breathtaking honesty.

206. James Campbell Moise (American/Louisiana, 1849‑1901), “Natchitoches”, 1877, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, inscribed “Completed April 26th 1877” en verso, 40 in. x 60 in., framed with original brass title plaque. [$40000/60000] Provenance: Descended in the family of David Pierson (1837-1900). Exh.: Louisiana State Fair, Shreveport, LA, c. 1920s

Note: Son of renowned Charleston and Louisiana artist Theodore Sydney Moise, James Campbell Moise was born in Natchitoches, Louisiana, studied at Christian Brothers college in New Orleans and followed in his father’s footsteps in the arts before undertaking a study of law. Moise inherited his father’s talent with a brush and served as a draughtsman in the engineering department during the last year of the Civil War. Throughout the 1860s and 1870s, he worked as a photographer and portrait painter, known for his skillful depictions.

Following the completion of the 1877 canvas offered here, Moise left behind his artistic pursuits, studied under Judge David Pierson (10) and developed a successful second career as a lawyer, judge and the assistant Attorney General of the state of Louisiana. Moise married Marie Aline Sompayrac in 1873 in Natchitoches, and they had ten children.

Surviving paintings by James Campbell Moise are extremely rare, and the significant canvas offered here represents the first example to be offered at auction.

A struggling artist, Moise raffled this painting to procure funds to move to New Orleans and advance his law career. According to the Shreveport Journal in 1941, the landscape was painted at Clear Lake in Natchitoches Parish, a favorite fishing spot. The prominent citizens of Natchitoches visited Moise’s studio to pose for the portraits, which were added to the scene after the landscape had been completed. The inclusion of these twenty-one citizens was a brilliant decision by the young artist, guaranteeing a strong participation in his raffle.

The painting was won on a roll of the dice on a single chance purchased by Mrs. Sidney Pipes Pierson, wife of David Pierson (10) who himself had bought thirty chances in order to support the artist. Moise raised $500, a princely sum in 1877.

Louisiana’s landscape of swamps, marshes and forests has long been a draw to lure artists both native to the state and visiting. Noted art historian Estill Curtis Pennington describes the post-Civil War period in Louisiana landscape painting thusly: “As the nineteenth century closed, the creeping nostalgic light of the bayou acted as a counterpoint to the imaginary sunset of a vanished culture, whose demise was evoked in dreamy longings for a landscape of comforting isolation…Amid all this sadness, real and imagined, the wild

splendor of the Louisiana countryside persisted, and it was at this time that the landscape artists of Louisiana seem to have found their subject matter.” Particularly in this period with the rise of photography, the demand for portraiture lessened, and from 1865 to 1875, the Louisiana style of landscape fully emerged from Moise’s contemporaries, such as Richard Clague, William Henry Buck and Marshall J. Smith, Jr. In the 1870s, due to the tensions of the Reconstruction era, there was increasing formation of groups and societies based on common interests such as fishing, horse racing or other pursuits, and large group portraits on a monumental scale, such as the one offered here, became the order of the day. The important collaborative works of Moise’s father, Theodore Sidney Moise, Victor Pierson and Paul Poincy such as the award-winning “Life on the Metairie” of 1868 and the “Volunteer Firemen’s Parade” of 1872 bear notable stylistic similarity to “Natchitoches,” not surprising given the familial connection. James Moise’s luminous landscape combines a masterful and expansive depiction of water, sky and land, with astonishing consideration to the characterization of each figure. The immense attention to detail throughout the unique composition creates a captivating scene that speaks clearly to life in Louisiana in the 1870s. The grand group portraits are among the most remarkable of this time period in the South, and Moise’s “Natchitoches” combines the best of both historical portraiture and classic Louisiana landscape painting – truly the artist’s magnum opus.

Founded in 1714, Natchitoches is the oldest permanent European settlement within the boundaries of the Louisiana Purchase.

Natchitoches in the late 1870s was guided by a group of prominent citizens who made their mark on the city. Through record keeping, newspaper articles documenting the painting and genealogical research, the majority of the men in this painting are known today.

1. Thomas Percy Chaplin, born in 1843 in Natchitoches, was an attorney and a sergeant in the Second Louisiana Infantry during the Civil War. He married Lise Breazeale in 1885 and the couple had five children.

2. Alexis Emile Lemee was born in 1845 in Natchitoches; he married Desiree Morse, daughter of General Peabody Atkinson Morse (19), in 1870, and they had six children. Lemee served in the twenty-sixth Louisiana regiment after attending Georgetown University and earned the rank of Lieutenant. He served as mayor of Natchitoches as well as the president of the Bank of Natchitoches. Lemee’s father, Alain Gustave Alexis Lemee, bought the Lemee House (built in 1830) at 310 Jefferson Street in Natchitoches in 1849, and the house is now the headquarters for the Association for the Preservation of Historical Natchitoches.

3. William Houston Jack, depicted riding a horse named Tilden, was born in 1836 in Arkansas and moved to Natchitoches in 1860, where he married Mary C. Whitfield and the couple had six children. A prominent lawyer associated with the law practice of Judge David Pierson (10), Jack also served as the Superintendent of Public Instruction and as a presidential elector for the state of Louisiana.

4. George Edwin Gillespie, born in Kentucky in 1833, moved to Natchitoches before 1860 and practiced as a physician as well as running the People’s Vindicator, a Reconstruction-era newspaper. In 1860, Gillespie married Marie Francoise “Fanny” Lemee, sister of Alexis Lemee (2) and the couple had five children.

5. Charles Francis L’Herisson was born in Natchitoches in 1851 and married Ella Pipes in 1879; the couple had two sons. The son of a merchant born in France, L’Herisson followed in his father’s footsteps, clerking in a store before becoming a merchant himself.

6. Charles A. Powell was born in 1860 to John Walker Powell and Lucy Elizabeth Blanding. His brother, William Blanding Powell, married Julia Bullard, whose brother, Charles Adams Bullard, Jr., is also pictured in this painting (7).

7. Charles Adam Bullard, Jr. was born in 1844 in Natchitoches. In 1877, he married Marzelie Marion Sompayrac (whose cousin, Marie Aline Sompayrac, was married to the artist of this painting) and they had six children. Bullard was a merchant and also served as deputy sheriff of Natchitoches. His father, Charles Bullard, Sr., built the Old Bullard Mansion, where Northwestern University was founded.

8. Theodore Haller was a native of Prussia born in 1839 and immigrated to the United States before 1854. In 1868, he married Elizabeth Porter, and they had four children. Haller worked as a tinner. Elizabeth Porter Haller’s brother, Judge Thomas Fitzgerald Porter, built the Judge Porter House in 1912, which is now the Judge Porter House Bed and Breakfast in the National Historic Landmark District of Natchitoches.

9. James H. Cosgrove was born in Minden, Louisiana in 1842 and attended the Texas Masonic College before entering the Confederate army and serving in Richardson’s Calvary Company and Hood’s Brigade, where he rose to the rank of General. In 1867, he married Julia Johnson, and the couple had five children. Cosgrove ran two newspapers in Natchitoches, the People’s Vindicator and the Democratic Review, and he became a Mason in 1882.

After the war, Pierson married Sidney Amanda Pipes and they had four children. Pierson then continued the practice of law in partnership with W. H. Jack (3) and was elected judge of the Seventeenth Judicial District in 1876 and then later for the Eleventh Judicial District in 1884 and 1888. He is shown with his loyal canine companion, Rattler.

11. Possibly a Member of the DeVargas or Dranguet Families 12. Chichester Chaplin, Sr. was born in 1800 in Ireland and immigrated to Louisiana before 1824, when he married Emmaline Cornelia “Emily” Palmer; the couple had five children. In 1844, Chaplin was appointed as postmaster in Sabine Parish and by the 1850s he had become a practicing attorney. Chaplin was commissioned judge of first the sixteenth and then the ninth district throughout the 1850s, 60s, and 70s.

13. Possibly a Member of the Sermon Family

14. George William Kearney was born in Terre Haute, Indiana in 1832 and had relocated to Natchitoches by the time the Civil War began.

Note: Thomas Sidney Cooper was born in Canterbury in 1803. He was introduced to the arts when he took a job as a coach painter then as a scene painter for the Hastings Theater.

Following a move to London at the age of twenty, he became an official student at the Royal Academy, an institution which elected him as an Associate in 1845 then later as a Royal Academician in 1867. Cooper’s skillfulness was showcased in his landscapes, earning him great respect, and his pastoral scenes of cattle grazing in green pastures were frequently exhibited at the Academy. The painting offered here highlights his fine brushwork and keen eye for detail of ruminating cows. With the leaves on the trees changing color, one can almost feel the crisp breeze of autumn running through the canvas.

Note: Cornelius Krieghoff traveled often throughout his career, studying and painting in Germany, France, the United States and Canada.

The work offered here descended in the family of Oscar Pratt Benson (1848-1934). Benson was born in New York and married his wife, Mary Alma Short, in her native Lindsay, Ontario before the couple settled in Buffalo. Benson worked as a store clerk, eventually turning to making frames and selling artwork. Through the 1890s and early 1900s, he owned Benson Art Store located at 564 Main Street in Buffalo.

212. Theodore Sidney Moise (American/Louisiana, 1808‑1885), “Francis Dubose Richardson (1812‑1901)”, 1854, oil on canvas, unsigned, 49 3/4 in. x 40 in., framed. [$20000/30000]

Note: Theodore Sidney Moise was a native of Charleston, South Carolina who then moved as a young man to Woodville, Mississippi. His artistic career began at an early age, and he advertised himself throughout the South as a portraitist and animal painter. Moise’s career flourished in New Orleans, where he moved in 1842. Having arrived in the city with his brother, Edwin Warren Moise, a lawyer and eventual member of the Louisiana House of Representatives, Theodore prospered from his brother’s connections to other well-known statesmen. Moise painted portraits of many prominent Louisiana families such as the Fortiers and the McIlhennys, as well as the public figures of Henry Clay and Andrew Jackson. In New Orleans, Moise had a studio with artists Trevor Thomas Fowler, Benjamin Franklin Reinhart and Paul Poincy. He also often worked in Natchitoches, Louisiana, where two of his children were born and where he eventually died. His son, James Campbell Moise, spent much of his adult life in Natchitoches as an artist prior to moving to New Orleans to study law. Paintings by both father and son are incredibly rare, and the inclusion of examples by each artist in this sale is an exciting concurrence.

Moise’s technical skill is apparent in the important three-quarter length portrait of Francis Dubose Richardson offered here, and he portrays the gentleman with the dignity and respect of his position as an attorney, state representative, and philanthropist. Born in 1812 in Woodville, Mississippi, Richardson married Bethia Liddell in 1839, and the couple moved to Bayou Teche in Iberia Parish, Louisiana. Richardson served two terms in the Louisiana State Legislature during the 1840s through 1856 and introduced legislation funding the Chalmette Battlefield monument. He also served as a correspondent for the New Orleans newspaper, the Daily Picayune, where he had many acquaintances. By 1850, Richardson had become a successful sugar planter and refiner, and he built Bayside Plantation along Bayou Teche, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

A well-known member of the community, as well as a state representative, Richardson would have had a certain amount of influence to assert upon the legislation of the state, and he put that authority to use by introducing a bill to provide $25,000 and establish the Louisiana Institution for the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind (now the separate Louisiana School for the Deaf and Louisiana School for the Visually Impaired) in Baton Rouge in 1852. The land for the original school building was donated by Richardson, perhaps in honor of his blind younger brother, John Wesley Richardson. The painting offered here was commissioned by the trustees of the Institution, and the 1854 portrait hung in the reception room and administrative spaces of the original building prior to eventually being returned to the Richardson family.

Following the deaths of three of their six children, Bethia Liddell Richardson died in 1852, leaving Richardson a widower with three children; the youngest of whom died only a year later. In 1854, Richard re-married to Elizabeth Dunbar Holmes of Adams County, Mississippi, and the couple had eight children, one of whom died infancy and two of whom later died in adulthood as missionaries in China.

In 1862, Richardson left Bayside and moved his family to another plantation he owned in St. Landry Parish to escape Union forces. Often referred to as Colonel Richardson, the title was an honorary one owing to his father, Lieutenant Colonel John Gaulden Richardson (1785-1856), who commanded a cavalry troop for the Mississippi Volunteers in the War of 1812 including at the Battle of New Orleans in Chalmette. Richardson himself served in the Home Guard, but he held no official rank with the Confederacy.

Following the Civil War, Richardson sold Bayside Plantation and moved with his family to Springfield, Missouri, although he would frequently return to Louisiana throughout the remainder of his life. An avid writer and historian, Richardson’s book The Teche Country Fifty Years Ago of 1889 is a valuable resource and first-hand account on the culture, economics, sugar trade and people of the area. Richardson followed this tome with his memoirs, published primarily for his family, in 1895. This accounting of his life provides fascinating insight into a turbulent time in history and a man described as having a striking level of “energy, activity, and ingeniousness” who was immortalized in this significant and historic Southern portrait by Moise.

Note: The Countess of La Fayette, known to many as “Madame de Lafayette,” was born MarieMadeleine 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.

In the work offered here, Bean depicts two nuns in traditional habits walking past the eclectic buildings of Saint Augustine with the beach in the background.

Note: John Vesey (1924 – 1992) designed some of the most highly sought-after furniture of the mid-20th century. The New York antiques dealer-turned-designer produced sleek steel and polished aluminum furniture based on classic forms with a modern twist, including pieces inspired by the Campeche chair, Grecian curule stool, Italian Savonarola chair, and Gilles Joubert’s 18th century bureau plat made for Louis XV. His pieces could take up to six months to produce and were considered a status item by the top interior designers of the period. Vesey furniture was collected by luminaries including Nelson Rockefeller, the Duchess of Windsor, Bobby Kennedy, French fashion designer Hubert de Givenchy, and Howard Hughes, who owned a desk nearly identical to the present lot. In 1958, journalist Rita Reif reported in The New York Times that “steel is putty in John Vesey’s hands.”

Exh.: “John McCrady 1911‑1968”. New Orleans Museum of Art. Sept. 26 ‑ Nov. 2, 1975; and illustrated in accompanying catalogue #44.

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.

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.

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

116

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.

Virtually all lots offered have been subject to use over a considerable period of time. No mention of 7. 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.

Neither high nor low estimates in a catalogue, website, advertising, correspondence, literature, or 8. 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.

Neal Auction Company has absolute discretion to admit a bidder to the auction premises, to expel a 9. 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.

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.

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

Neal Auction Company reserves the right to record any telephone bidding or conversation relating to 9. 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.
