COLLECTION OF
DR. MARK A. GEIST Neal Auction Company is pleased to present an exceptional selection of important silver, sculpture and bronzes, porcelain, period furniture, and fine art from the Collection of Dr. Mark A. Geist. The Geist Collection is comprised of nearly 150 lots that were lovingly amassed over a period of decades to furnish the doctor’s meticulously renovated 1876 Eastlake Victorian home in East Providence, Rhode Island. Geist’s earliest passion centered on Medallion silver with many fine examples, including John Wendt and Gorham, highlighting the sale. Exceptional sculpture and bronzes, which showcase the collector’s keen and discerning eye, is evidenced in lot 376, a rare 1878-1886 Avoiron et Cie copper-plated zinc reduction of Frederic Auguste Bartholdi’s “Statue of Liberty.” The doctor’s taste for the sublime is apparent in his porcelain, which features a Sevres ‘Service de la Table du Roi’ for King Louis Philippe’s Chateux de St. Cloud and Compiegne and a ‘Service Ordinaire’ for the Chateau de Fontainebleau. Period furniture is dominated by American Classical and Biedermeier examples which gracefully furnished the collector’s Eastlake home; while fine art includes a substantial group of Gustav Klimt prints, produced under the close supervision of the artist.

THE ESTATE OF JULIA EVANS REED Neal Auction Company is pleased to present the Estate of Julia Evans Reed, sold for the benefit of the Julia Evans Reed Charitable Trust. Julia Reed, celebrated author, legendary hostess and beloved daughter of the Mississippi Delta died at the age of 59 this past year. Whether the topic was haute couture or haute cuisine, Julia celebrated designers and artisans and introduced readers to their talents. Julia’s work was dedicated to increasing the visibility of achievement and effort of those artists regardless of their medium. Her generosity of spirit was best displayed in her writings and - for those with the supreme good fortune to have a seat at her gracious dining tables - through her exceptional gifts as a hostess. Recognized throughout her career as a keen observer of the political scene, fashion, food, and design, Julia was also celebrated as a great taste-maker, hostess, cook, and arbiter of interior style. The Mississippi Delta is the place to which Julia always returned from her global travels as a journalist. Julia introduced colleagues and friends to the land she loved and introduced thousands more to her community through her writing. By seeing the region through her eyes, countless people developed an appreciation and fondness for the Delta in particular, and the South in general. During her lifetime, Julia also used her writing to improve the lives of the citizens of her native land. The Julia Evans Reed Charitable Trust (www.juliareedtrust.org), which is the sole beneficiary of the auction of her estate collection, will continue her work, as set out in their mission statement: The Julia Evans Reed Charitable Trust continues the philanthropic work that Julia began in her lifetime to help people in need. We do this by supporting organizations dedicated to providing the things in life that Julia deemed essential: a good home, nourishing food, a quality education, and opportunities for learning, literacy and engagement in the arts.

Julia Reed was also deeply involved in the community of New Orleans, where she lived for over thirty years. Julia served on the boards of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art and the LinkStryjewski Foundation, and as an ambassador for the city’s restaurants and talented chefs. The Trust will continue to support Julia’s legacy in New Orleans through its support of the LinkStryjewski Foundation. www.linkstryjewski.org. Julia’s passion for decorative arts and design was nurtured by her mother, Judy Brooks Reed, and influenced by her grandmother’s Nashville home, Watersmeet. Julia’s own homes in New York and New Orleans, as well as her beloved Mississippi Delta Folly, reflected her widely-admired style, incorporating objects collected in a lifetime of travel and adventure with traditional antiques and decorations. This auction includes Julia’s collection of fine and decorative arts and accoutrements of entertaining, much of which has been featured in books and magazines over the years. Neal Auction Company would like to thank Anne Flaherty Heekin and Keith Smythe Meacham for their contributions to this essay. Neal Auction would also like to thank Elizabeth McGee Cordes, Anne Heekin and Judy Brooks Reed for their invaluable assistance on behalf of the Estate, Paul Costello for photography, Thomas Jayne and Jayne Design Studio for photography and provenance information, Courtney Coleman and Bill Brockschmidt of Brockschmidt and Coleman, Patrick Dunne and Everett Bexley for background information, and Jessica Lange.

I can’t imagine what possessed her to buy that—it’s certainly not an ancestor—but I’m happy to have it. I don’t think anybody in my family even knew that was a cricket bat in the child’s hand until I made the mistake of going out with a cricket player, and so the mystery was solved.” ~ Julia Reed Ref.: Walsh, Julia Millay. “Tour Author Julia Reed’s New Orleans Home.” One Kings Lane. https://www.onekingslane.com/live-love-home/julia-reed-new-orleans-home-tour/.

50. Ashley Pridmore (American/New York, 20th c.), “Guarding Nefertiti”, 2014, papier mâché and beeswax, unsigned, h. 5 1/4 in., w. 8 1/4 in., d. 4 1/4 in. [$1200/1800] Provenance: Estate of Julia Evans Reed. Ill.: Reed., Julia. “Sculptor Ashley Pridmore’s Wild Talent”. Garden and Gun. Aug/Sept 2018. Note: Ashley Pridmore is a mixed media artist from the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York who travels extensively throughout the Gulf Coast. Pridmore earned a BFA in Sculpture and Extended Media from Virginia Commonwealth University and apprenticed with Texas-born artist John Alexander, whose New York studio she managed for seven years. Pridmore’s childhood was filled with the natural world, a theme which now dominates her spiritual and haunting drawings and sculptures. As Julia Reed wrote in Garden & Gun: “Once in Pridmore’s hands, her ‘objects’ no longer exactly exist in nature. A papier-mâché and beeswax coyote skull called Guarding Nefertiti [offered here] for example, is adorned with incredibly lifelike but highly unlikely barnacles. Yet the piece looks as if it somehow evolved that way, as does a sea horse whose spine has sprouted porcupine quills and crab-apple thorns, or a piece of found pine with tiny brass brads climbing its crevices like an especially glossy fungus. The works, she says, ‘tell a new story’ when the contrasting components combine.” Ref.: Reed, Julia. “Sculptor Ashley Pridmore’s Wild Talent.” Garden & Gun.

William Dunlap (American/Mississippi, b. 1944), “Mississippi ‑ Father of Waters ‑ History of Mud”, 2006, polymer paint and gold and silver leaf on canvas, signed lower right, signed, titled and dated en verso, 40 in. x 82 in., unframed. [$12000/18000] Provenance: Acquired directly from the artist, 2006; Estate of Julia Evans Reed. Ill.: Dunlap, William Ralph. Dunlap. Jackson: University Press of Mississippi, 2006, p. 133. Note: Julia Reed wrote of William Dunlap “…that’s the thing about Dunlap. He’s an extraordinary painter, but he’s also a fully engaged citizen of the world.” In her article for Garden & Gun in 2010, Reed’s remarkable ability to illuminate her subjects shines when describing Dunlap – both their friendship and his celebrated career as an artist and fellow ambassador for the South. Dunlap is one of the most renowned artists creating in the South today, and his works explore the culture, literature, people, animals and landscape of the region. In this monumental work entitled “The History of Mud” from Reed’s collection (which includes a number of other paintings by the artist), a rich narrative of the South is revealed through, in Dunlap’s own words, “a post Katrina apocalyptic view of the Delta landscape with tornadoes and storm clouds hovering over the two buildings that mean the most in that part of the world, the cotton gin, now defunct and a little frame church, probably a Baptist, the sort that dot the landscape everywhere you go in our part of the world.” Often numbers or words appear in Dunlap’s compositions as if seeping from the ground and sky, and in this case, there could be no more appropriate word to tie together artist and collector than that of their common home state – Mississippi.

431. Dame Elisabeth Frink (British, 1930‑1993), “Wounded Horse”, 1987, gouache and charcoal on paper, signed and dated twice lower right, printed label with title and date and “John James LTD” label on backing, 39 7/16 in. x 27 13/16., framed. [$12000/18000] Note: Dame Elisabeth Frink had a lifelong fascination with horses stemming from her country childhood in Sussex, England. Her father was a skilled horseman and an amateur jockey, which augmented an enthusiasm that continued throughout her life as she explored the form of the horse in a variety of media. The painting, lot 431, offered here is one of the series of Wounded Horse drawings in gouache and charcoal created by Frink during the late 1980s and perhaps part of a solo exhibition on the artist held at Galerie Simonne Stern in New Orleans in 1991. The series began after a horse kept by the artist and her husband at their home was injured, and it led to her considering ideas for her monumental War Horse sculpture. These drawings reflect the development of Frink’s interest in color and rhythmic marks in her three-dimensional work. As Annette Ratuszniak writes: “Drawing was central to the way that Frink explored her feelings about human aggression, vulnerability and the impact we have on the world we share with other species. Her drawings are related to but never studies for a particular sculpture, unless for a commission.” Neal Auction Company would like to thank Annette Ratuszniak, former Curator of the Elisabeth Frink Estate and Archive, and the Frink Archive at the Dorset History Centre for their assistance with the cataloguing and research of this lot.

461. Pair of Important American Aesthetic Carved Oak Throne Chairs, c. 1881‑1882, Herter Brothers, New York, each with carved ogee crest over padded back and seat flanked by stiles carved with anthemia and bosses continuing to paneled sides with a carved trompe l’oeil drape, arabesques and ribbon garlands behind gryphon term stiles and over massive paw front feet and plinth base. [$150000/250000] Note: This remarkable pair of chairs were commissioned for the ground floor atrium of the William Vanderbilt Residence, an Italianate compound for Vanderbilt and his daughters taking a city block at 640 5th Avenue in New York City. The finest and largest house on Fifth Avenue of the 1880s, it was estimated to have employed 600 workmen for its construction, and Herter Brothers’ most important design commission. It was also one of the most well documented houses of “Vanderbilt Row” as a 160 page folio, Mr. Vanderbilt’s House and Collection, Volume I, complete with colored photographs, engravings, and elaborate descriptions by Edward Strahan, nom de plume for art critic Earl Shinn. The chairs offered here are illustrated in two plates and two different engraved illustrations in Mr. Vanderbilt’s House. The atrium where these chairs were placed was a two-story galleried space faced in rosso antico marble and lavishly hung with tapestries. Though the ground floor atrium was dubbed the “Egyptian Room,” Herter Brothers worked with a broad selection of historical forms for the furnishings. The chairs offered here are adapted from the ancient Egyptian Royal thrones and the ancient Roman Soliam form. The Herter designers were well aware that the Solium was an armed chair usually carved with gryphon terms from a single block of wood or stone to be used by a Roman master of the house when he received visitors in his atrium. Visitors to Vanderbilt’s atrium likely found it fitting that the Soliam was an easily recognized form of Sella Curulis (Roman State) chairs and Egyptian royal thrones. Also in the Vanderbilt atrium were a pair of large Herter Brothers carved console tables, one surviving in the collection of the Dallas Museum of Art (no. 1996-213 A-E). careful study indicates that while the table and chairs are not stridently en suite, they harmonize together with shared materials and motifs,
as did many of the other decorations in the house. Though the term supports on the tables differ (from gryphons on the chairs and human forms on the tables) various carved moldings, the ribboned garlands, and the playful tromp l’oeil carved wood tapestries are prominent in both tables and chairs. Completed in 1882, 640 5th Avenue served as William Vanderbilt’s residence for three years until his 1885 death in its library. Vanderbilt’s heirs leased the house to Henry Clay Frick among others until 1915 when Cornelius and Grace Vanderbilt moved in. By the early 20th century the elaborate furnishings were passe and the house was gutted and furnishings dispersed. The few surviving Herter examples from the William Vanderbilt commission are only known in museum collections (including the Metropolitan Museum of art, the Museum of Fine Arts Houston, and the High Museum, Atlanta) and complemented by the chairs offered here.

496. Marie Atkinson Hull (American/Mississippi, 1890‑1980), “Field with Tall Grass”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, 32 1/4 in. x 42 1/4 in., framed. [$8000/12000] Provenance: Collection of Michael Wilkinson, New Orleans, LA. 497. Theora Hamblett (American/Mississippi, 1895‑1977), “Mother Goat and Kids”, 1971, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, handwritten label with artist and title on backing, 24 in. x 30 in., framed. [$18000/25000] Provenance: Descended in the family of the artist. Note: Theora Hamblett began her professional career late in life, eschewing the abstract style popular at the time in favor of subjects more personal. After an accident that broke her hip and required surgery in 1954, Hamblett began to paint her dreams and visions. The same year, New York gallery owner and famous collector, Betty Parsons, discovered Hamblett’s work and subsequently one of her paintings was included in a 1955 show of new acquisitions at the Museum of Modern Art. Many of Hamblett’s paintings concentrated on her early memories, especially of the chicken farm in Paris, Mississippi where she spent her childhood. In nearly all of her landscape paintings, she included animals or people, with the belief that these additions gave life to the scenes. A charming family of goats surrounded by Hamblett’s iconic trees take center stage in the rare and mature work offered here. Hamblett’s minimalist style is abstract, yet representational, with the highly patterned trees vibrating with tiny leaves, made all the more kinetic by being placed between the field of solid gold surrounding the goats and the bright blue Mississippi sky.

Note: In March of 1967, George Rodrigue returned to his hometown of New Iberia, Louisiana from the Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles, where he had been studying traditional painting techniques, abstract expressionism, pop art and hard edge painting. As he explored his own path forward as an artist, Rodrigue’s earliest landscapes from 1967 to 1970 often included elements such as cabins and small figures. As his unique vision of Louisiana developed, he abandoned these additional components in favor of the oak tree alone – his symbol of his home state. The silhouetted oak tree in the background, cropped at the top, and a rich, dark foreground dominated his compositions. As he began to develop local supporters, Rodrigue was introduced to the famous Louisiana architect, A. Hays Town, and his advice to the young artist further transformed Rodrigue’s approach. Town told him to “treat each painting like a jewel, because if it is precious to you, it will be precious to others as well.” The two canvases from 1969 offered in these lots with their rich palettes and meticulous details are both jewels and windows into the early development of an artist that would come to define twentieth century Louisiana landscape painting.

Note: Charles Henry Chapin arrived in New Orleans from New York in the winter of 1882, and he advertised as a painter of portraits and landscapes as well as a teacher. A well-traveled artist, Chapin had earned critical acclaim for his earlier landscapes of the Adirondack Mountains and Grand Canyon, along with his noted portrait of Polish actress Helena Modjeska in her role as Mary Queen of Scots. While in New Orleans, Chapin established a studio on Dryades Street and exhibited at W.E. Seebold’s art gallery. He resided in New Orleans from 1882 to 1885 and took trips during this time period along the central and southern Gulf coast of Florida. As a landscape painter, Chapin was noted for his skill in oil as well as watercolor. In the painting offered here, he beautifully and adeptly captures the light reflected on the water as well as the luminosity of the distant horizon.

512. Andres Molinary (American/New Orleans, 1847‑1915), “City Park, Old Allard Plantation, New Orleans”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, 15 in. x 24 in., framed. [$15000/25000] Provenance: Mary Helen Washburn, student of Andres Molinary at Newcomb College, New Orleans, LA; thence by descent.
Note: As a young man in his twenties, Andres Molinary left his native Gibraltar for New Orleans with the intention of visiting his uncle, who was a partner in an importing business. After several years of traveling throughout Mexico and Central America, Molinary settled permanently in the Crescent City in 1876. With the encouragement of his uncle, Molinary pursued a career as an artist and eventually opened an art studio. He soon earned portrait commissions and furthered his interest in landscape and genre painting. Always engaging and popular, Molinary’s studio became a gathering place for the coterie of local artists and writers. As an active member of the local art community, Molinary was instrumental in the founding of the Cup and Saucer Club, Southern Art Union and Artists’ Association of New Orleans. The unique landscape of southern Louisiana fascinated the artist. As New Orleans began to expand its environs beyond the French Quarter and the surrounding areas near the Mississippi River, Molinary documented the growth of the city. Many of his landscape paintings depict the developing, but still clearly rural, communities on the outskirts of the growing city. In the work offered here, Molinary depicts a slightly different view of the same scene sold in these rooms on February 20, 2016. The Allard family had possession of the land along Bayou St. John from the late 1700s to 1845, when it was acquired by businessman John McDonogh. He willed the land to the cities of New Orleans and Baltimore upon his death in 1850, around the same time a movement within the country to construct urban parks was taking shape. In 1859, New Orleans resolved ownership with Baltimore and declared the land a public park. The space that would become City Park remained largely undeveloped until the late 1890s, providing the perfect subject for Molinary.

514. Jasper Francis Cropsey (American/New York, 1823‑1900), “October Morning”, 1888, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left, “Thomas A. Wilmurt, New York” label on frame, 9 1/2 in. x 17 in., framed with artist and title plaque. [$10000/15000] Provenance: Estate of Houston H. and Carolyn H. Harte, San Antonio, TX.
Note: Jasper Francis Cropsey initially trained as an architect under Joseph Trench, who encouraged his talents in drawing and painting. Cropsey developed a keen interest in landscape. Throughout the 1840s, he supported himself with architectural commissions, among the most notable being New York’s Sixth Avenue Elevated Railway, while continuing his artistic pursuits. In 1847, he first traveled to Europe and settled in Thomas Cole’s old studio in Rome to further his studies. In 1849, he returned to New York and arrived upstate to devote himself to the landscape work that would bring him prominence as a Hudson River School painter. Cropsey’s landscapes reflect his interest in the influence of nature on man’s existence, a concept that was fundamental to the Hudson River School artists. In 1884, Cropsey moved to a house in Hastings-on-Hudson, New York to which he added a studio. Today that site, called Ever Rest, is maintained as a museum by the Newington-Cropsey Foundation. For fifteen years, he continued to paint in his home on the Hudson. The oil landscape of 1888 offered here displays Cropsey’s mature skill with a vivid autumnal palette and finely showcases his luminist technique. Neal Auction Company would like to thank Anthony Speiser, Director of the Newington-Cropsey Foundation, for his help in authenticating this lot. The work will be included in any future supplements to the catalogue raisonné on the artist.

Note: A professional illustrator, artist and writer, Thornton Oakley often wrote and illustrated content for many magazines, particularly relating to travel and industry. Oakley worked in graphite, pen and ink, and oil with a consistent clarity and attention to detail. His most accomplished works are paintings and drawings of city scenes that provide an emphasis on their industrial character, highlighting the urban landscapes’ massive size and strength of structures and materials. The work seen here displays the artist’s tendency to focus on a single figure centered in the foreground of a vertical scene of imposing structures and machinery in order to emphasize man’s relationship to industry. He once stated: “It is man, the workman, the tiny human being upon the street, who has conceived and wrought the giant frames of steel, the furnaces, the towering buildings. It is through his eyes that I have seen.” Published as part of an article in Harper’s Monthly Magazine written and illustrated by the artist in 1905, the setting of the rare oil painting offered here is perfectly described by Oakley: “It was New Orleans; it was the afternoon, and the hour was near for departure of the steamboat. The sun flamed down as though the sky were the open door of a furnace, and the levee quivered with the heat. To the right and to the left stretched a long vista of cotton bales, and beyond the rows of bales lay the packets, their smoke-stacks – tall and lean, ribbed with white and topped by bell-shaped grills of wrought iron – reaching up into the blue sky full of floating clouds.” Ref.: Oakley, Thornton. “Mississippi Sketches.” Harper’s.

Note: A native New Orleanian, Mildred Wohl studied at the Newcomb Art School at Tulane University. She had her first solo exhibition at the Sky Club in 1959 followed by a show at the Downtown Gallery in 1961. Wohl joined the Orleans Gallery in 1966 and was an active member until the artist collective closed in early 1973. Wohl worked in the style of Abstract Expressionism with a unique palette different from that of her sister and the highly acclaimed artist, Ida Kohlmeyer. While Kohlmeyer’s work is most often grounded in a field of white, Wohl embraced the enigmatic colors of black and brown in her paintings. The occasional addition of a vivid hue such as red, seen in the work offered here, acts to accentuate the mystery of the surrounding composition. An exploration of the dynamic relationship between vertical and horizontal forms, expressive brushwork and characteristic palette defined Wohl’s career, resulting in a distinctive and important body of work.

Note: After his apprenticeship with Michele Tosini, Francesco del Brina specialized in compositions intended for private devotion, particularly scenes of the Madonna and Child. The painting offered here is an excellent example of his Mannerist style. Mannerism as a response to naturalism marked by dramatically illuminated scenes, elaborate clothing, elongated proportion and exaggerated poses. During the late sixteenth century, when the style was spreading throughout Europe, developed in Italy in line with the demands of the Roman Catholic church, which at the time of the Reformation sought to connect believers to the church all the more urgently and called for an art that would convey the true content of faith. Brina is credited with painting an Adoration of the Shepherds for the altar of Santa Felicita and an Annunciation with Saints for a chapel in the church of San Gaggio, both in Florence.

These Conditions of Sale are binding and enforceable on all bidders and buyers. 1. WARRANTY WAIVERS; LIABILITY LIMITATIONS. All lots are sold “AS IS, WHERE IS” – WITH ALL FAULTS and WITH NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES. No statement or description regarding attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, value, size, or quality of a lot, whether made orally at the auction or at any other time, in electronic messages, online, in writing, or in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere, is or shall be construed to be a guarantee, an express or implied warranty, or assumption of liability, obligation, or responsibility. The bidder or buyer WAIVES any such warranty, WAIVES any warranty of fitness for ordinary use or for any intended use, and further WAIVES any warranty against redhibitory vices and defects, whether latent, hidden, or apparent, and whether imposed by the Louisiana Civil Code or any other applicable statute, law, jurisprudence, or legal authority. The buyer further WAIVES any rights or remedies in redhibition to a return or reduction of the purchase price for any lot, including for any lot with any defect rendering the lot useless, inconvenient, or of diminished usefulness. All sales are final, without exception.
Each bidder and buyer agrees and acknowledges that: (a) the bidder or buyer is not relying on Neal Auction Company’s actual, perceived, or expressed skill, expertise, experience, knowledge, or judgment in deciding to purchase any lot; (b) no oral, written, or electronic statement or description in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere regarding attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, quality, size, or value is the cause of or reason behind the buyer’s purchase of any lot; (c) the buyer would have purchased any lot regardless of any oral, written, or electronic statement or description about attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, quality, size, or value, made in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere; (d) Neal Auction Company did not know, nor should it have known that attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, size, quality, or expressed value is the cause or reason why the buyer decides to purchase any lot; (e) the buyer’s purchase of any lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; (f) Neal Auction Company did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral, written, or electronic statement or description in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere would cause a pecuniary or nonpecuniary loss to any bidder or buyer; (g) the bidder or buyer has had the opportunity prior to bidding to make independent inspections of, and conduct due diligence on, all lots being offered; (h) there is no inspection or examination period after the auction bidding; (i) the bidder’s or buyer’s failure to be fully informed as to the attribution, authenticity, authorship, character, condition, kind, period, provenance, quality, size, or value of a lot will not be grounds for any reduction of the purchase price or rescission of the sale; (j) Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for the presence of lead-based paint or any other environmental or other hazard of any lot; (k) Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible to the buyer as to third parties who may claims rights to or interests in any lot; (l) the buyer is buying at the buyer’s sole risk and peril; (m) Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any errors or omissions in any oral, written or electronic statement or description in a catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, literature, or elsewhere. Each bidder and buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any and all claims arising out of the matters expressed above. All such waivers, releases, and limitations of liability shall apply to Neal Auction Company and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees. 2. Fine Art. Subject to the foregoing Conditions of Sale, WAIVERS OF WARRANTY, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, with respect to authorship of works of fine art, the following phrases have the following meanings: ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, we believe the work is by the artist named.
Attributed to ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, we believe the work may be ascribed to the artist named on the basis of style and period, but our opinion is less certain than in the previous category. Signed “ARTIST” - In our qualified opinion, the signature, monogram, or other indication of authorship is a signature of the artist. School of ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, the work is of the period of the artist named, by a student or a follower of the artist, but not by the artist. Manner of ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, although the work is in the style of the artist named, it is actually of a later period. After ARTIST - In our qualified opinion, the work is a copy of a known work of the artist named.
Bears signature “ARTIST” - In our qualified opinion, although the work bears the signature or monogram of the artist, the work most likely is not that of the artist. 3. Discretionary Rescission. Notwithstanding the foregoing Conditions of Sale, WAIVERS OF WARRANTY, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, Neal Auction Company may in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, consider any reasonable request for rescission of a sale of a work of fine art on the basis of authenticity of authorship only under the following terms, conditions, and LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, all of which apply, and the buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any other rights, relief or remedies: A. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission of any lot identified by the terms “attributed to,” “signed,” “school of,” “manner of,” “after,” or “bears signature.” B. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission of any lot unless the buyer notifies Neal Auction Company in writing within 25 calendar days from the date of the auction, and returns the lot to Neal Auction Company in the same condition that the lot was in at the time of sale. C. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer presents to Neal Auction Company a written document signed by a recognized art expert acceptable to Neal Auction Company that the lot in question is a forgery. D. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission to any person (including but not limited to the original buyer’s heirs, legatees, assigns, transferees, or subsequent purchasers) other than the original buyer, and any rights or interests of the original buyer are not transferrable, inheritable, or assignable. E. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission when: (a) there is a conflict of expert opinion as to the authorship; (b) expert opinion supported authorship at the time of auction, although expert opinion may have changed afterward; and (c) scientific or other tests, examinations, investigations, research, or processes that were unavailable, expensive, or impractical at the time of the auction have revealed since that time that the author, character, condition, kind, provenance, period, quality, or value Neal Auction Company believed to be accurate at the time of sale was inaccurate. In any dispute between Neal Auction Company and the bidder or buyer regarding authorship of a work of fine art, rescission of the sale and refund of the purchase price paid shall be the buyer’s sole recourse or remedy, if
132
any is available. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, agents, insurers, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any damages (including compensatory, general, incidental, consequential, exemplary, or special damages), non-pecuniary losses, costs, expenses, injury, mental anguish, lost profits, attorneys’ fees, or any other monetary, declaratory, equitable, or injunctive relief or remedy. The buyer WAIVES and RELEASES any and all such damages, relief, and remedies. AUCTION BIDDING AND SALE 1. The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the highest and best bid on each lot. The auctioneer may decide that any original bid is not commensurate with the value of the lot offered, or that any advance thereafter is not of sufficient amount, and the auctioneer may reject or refuse to recognize that bid or advance.
2. At the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer, whether in person or absentee, thereupon assumes the obligation to pay for the offered lot, and shall pay the full purchase price for the lot, which shall include the hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium, and all applicable taxes, charges, and costs. 3. Title to the offered lot shall pass to the bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer upon payment of the full purchase price for the lot, which shall include the hammer price, plus the buyer’s premium, and all applicable taxes, charges, and costs. The buyer thereupon assumes full risk, obligation, and responsibility for the lot. 4. At any time before the sale of a lot, Neal Auction Company reserves the right to withdraw the lot or any part of the lot, to combine lots, or to separate items within a lot. 5.
No lots will be released before the end of the auction.
6. If the buyer fails to comply with any of these Conditions of Sale, Neal Auction Company reserves the right to (a) hold such defaulting buyer liable, obligated, and responsible for the total amount due and to commence legal proceedings to recover the entire amount along with interest, reasonable attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs; (b) charge outstanding amounts to the buyer’s credit card; (c) apply any payments to outstanding amounts chosen by Neal Auction Company notwithstanding the instructions of the buyer; (d) cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payment made by the buyer; (e) resell the lot without reserve at public auction, online-only auction, or privately on seven calendar days’ notice to the buyer; (f) enforce specific performance of the sale; (g) require a deposit in future auctions; (h) exclude the buyer from future auctions or bidding on particular lots; (i) exercise the rights and remedies of a person holding security and/or privilege over property in Neal Auction Company’s possession, whether by pledge, security interest or any other mechanism, to the full extent allowed under Louisiana law, and Neal Auction Company may hold the property of the buyer as collateral security for the buyer’s obligations; (j) and/or take such other actions allowed by law in Neal Auction Company’s sole discretion. If Neal Auction Company resells the lot, the defaulting buyer shall be liable, obligated, and responsible for the payment of any deficiency in the purchase price and any damages, including but not limited to all costs and expenses of both sales, such as, by way of example only, storage, handling, insurance, repairs, illustrations, consultations, examinations, moving, shipping, promotions, advertising, reasonable attorneys’ fees, commissions, and incidental damages.
7. Virtually all lots offered have been subject to use over a considerable period of time. No mention of cracks, scratches, chips, tears, breaks, weaknesses, or any damages or wear will be included in oral, written, or electronic statements or descriptions in the catalogue, website, correspondence, advertising, or literature. Condition reports may be provided upon request, but condition reports may not mention all cracks, scratches, chips, defects, hazards, tears, breaks, weaknesses, or other damages or wear. Neal Auction Company makes no representations or warranties as to the accuracy or completeness of any information or description in a condition report or elsewhere, whether oral, written, electronic, or online. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to decline to provide a condition report for any specific lot, at its sole discretion. 8. Neither high nor low estimates in a catalogue, website, advertising, correspondence, literature, or elsewhere should be relied on as a representation, prediction, appraisal, guarantee, or warranty that a particular lot will sell for a particular price or that a particular lot has a particular value.
9. Neal Auction Company has absolute discretion to admit a bidder to the auction premises, to expel a bidder from the auction premises, or to refuse a bidder from participating in the auction. 10. Neal Auction Company and its auctioneers shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for failure to recognize or execute any bids for any reason whatsoever, or for no reason. Bidders and buyers WAIVE and RELEASE any rights to damages, and equitable, declaratory, and injunctive relief arising out of the failure or rejection of any bid, or any errors or omissions relating to the bidding process. 11.
Interfering with the auction in any way is prohibited.
13.
Canvassing or solicitating on the auction premises is prohibited.
12. Bid rigging is strictly prohibited. Any agreement, understanding, or arrangement not to bid against another or otherwise to dampen the bidding is unlawful. The auctioneer reserves the right to bid on behalf of the consignor for the protection of the consignor if this illegal activity by two or more bidders is detected, disclosed, alleged, or suspected. 14. The auctioneer has the sole discretion as to the increments of bidding, the recognition of any bid, the acceptance of the final bid, and resolving any disputes among bidders.
15. Neal Auction Company represents the consignors only and is not acting as agent or representative of bidders or buyers. The payment of the buyer’s premium by the buyer does not indicate a dual agency relationship. Neal Auction Company is to be paid a fee or commission by the consignor pursuant to a separate written agreement between the consignor and Neal Auction Company. The consignor is the seller of the lot sold. Neal Auction Company is the consignment agent or representative, not the seller. 16. The successful bidder is obligated to pay the purchase price in full unless Neal Auction Company has consented in writing at the time of the bidder’s registration that the bidder is acting as an agent on behalf of an identified person and that said principal is obligated to pay the purchase price in full. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to require an advance deposit for such bids.
17. Prior to placing any bid, all bidders must complete a standard Neal Auction Company Registration Form in use at the time of the auction. 18.
Dealers must provide Neal Auction Company with proper documentation prior to bidding.
20.
Bids are required to be made in U.S. dollars.
19.
First time bidders are required to produce a valid state-issued identification card or passport.
21. Neal Auction Company may require a bidder or buyer at any time to produce financial, banking, or trade references and information.
22. All bidders are required to provide credit card information (such as but not limited to the type of card, card number, name as it appears on the card, billing zip code, expiration date, and security code).
23. All bidders are required to select, and notify Neal Auction Company of, a method of payment (cash, check, wire, or credit card) in writing at the time of registration. 24. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to describe or to make photographic, video, or audio recordings of the auction, or any part thereof, and to publish such descriptions, photographs and/or recordings.
25. Lots may be offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum hammer price below which the lot will not be sold, for the protection of the consignor. Such reserve will not exceed the low estimate for the lot. The auctioneer may open the bidding on any lot by placing a bid on behalf of the consignor, auctioneer, or an absentee bidder that is below the reserve. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the consignor, auctioneer, or absentee bidder up to the amount of the reserve, by placing consecutive bids or by bidding in response to other bidders. Neal Auction Company may sell a lot at a hammer price below the reserve at its discretion, subject to its agreement with the consignor. ABSENTEE/TELEPHONE/ONLINE BIDS 1. All absentee bids and/or telephone bids must be received by Neal Auction Company by 5 p.m. Central Time the Thursday prior to the auction. 2. All arrangements for bidding should be made as early as possible. Telephone bidding will be taken at the discretion of Neal Auction Company. Each lot must have a minimum low estimate of $500 for telephone bidding. Absentee bids are accepted for any lots regardless of estimate, at the discretion of Neal Auction Company.
3. Neal Auction Company intends to endeavor to protect the confidentiality of absentee/telephone bids. In the event that the identity of absentee/telephone bidders or buyers or of the amounts of absentee/ telephone bids is disclosed, Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for such disclosure, and each bidder and buyer WAIVES and RELEASES Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) from any claims arising out of such disclosure. 4. Neal Auction Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to require that any advance bids be accompanied by a security deposit.
5. Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any failure, design flaw, error, act, omission, or negligence of third party sites or their agents. Bidders WAIVE and RELEASE any rights to damages and equitable, declaratory, and injunctive relief and remedies arising therefrom.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Unless other arrangements are made and confirmed in writing by Neal Auction Company, all lots must be removed within 15 calendar days of the auction. On the first business day following that time period, any lots remaining in the Neal Auction Company gallery may be turned over to a storage facility, at Neal Auction Company’s discretion. The buyer will be responsible for all handling and storage charges. Handling charges shall be a minimum of $50 per lot. Storage costs shall be a minimum charge of $50 per month per lot. Storage charges accrue monthly and must be paid in full before any lots purchased by the buyer are released. At its discretion, Neal Auction Company may charge the full amount of any storage and handling charges, on a periodic basis, on the buyer’s credit card, including interest at the rate of one and one-half percent per month.
All purchased lots will be handled and stored at the buyer’s sole risk and peril. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for handling or storage, or for any damage to or loss of, any lot after the sale. The buyer WAIVES and RELEASES all such claims against Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees). INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
Neal Auction Company retains the copyright and other intellectual property rights to all photographs, video, illustrations, text, and other works in its catalogue, website, advertising, correspondence, literature, and elsewhere. Such photographs, video, illustrations, text, and other works may not be used, copied, published, exhibited, revised, or displayed without the prior written permission of Neal Auction Company. Neal Auction Company and the consignor make no representation or warranty that the buyer of a lot will acquire any copyright or other intellectual property right or interest in the lot. IMPORT/EXPORT
9. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to record any telephone bidding or conversation relating to said bidding, or any part thereof, and to publish said recordings. By participating in telephone bidding, the bidder consents to such recording and publication, notwithstanding the laws or regulations of the state or jurisdiction of the bidder.
Lots made of or incorporating endangered or protected wildlife materials, irrespective of age or amount of material, may require a license or certificate authorizing export from the United States as well as relevant authorizations from the country of import. It is the responsibility of the bidder or buyer to determine and be satisfied that the requirements of any applicable laws and regulations applying to the transportation, whether international or interstate, can be met before bidding. The inability of a buyer to transport lots containing endangered or protected wildlife material is not a basis for cancellation or rescission of the sale or discount of the purchase price. Although licenses may be obtainable to export certain types of endangered species, some types may not be exported at all, and other types may not be resold in certain states in the United States. Neal Auction Company cannot assist the bidder or buyer in attempting to obtain the appropriate licenses and/or certificates, and bidders and buyers can be given no assurance that an export license or certificate can be obtained. Each bidder should verify with an attorney or qualified shipping company if uncertain as to whether a lot is subject to export/import license and certificate requirements and any other restrictions or prohibitions on the interstate transportation or exportation from the United States. Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any oral, written, or electronic advice given or representations made by it or by any shipping company, legal counsel, or other person. Buyers WAIVE and RELEASE any and all claims against Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) relating to such advice and representations.
PAYMENT
MANDATORY AND EXCLUSIVE FORUM SELECTION; CHOICE OF LAW
6. Prior to placing any absentee, telephone, or online bid, all bidders are required to complete the applicable Registration Form prior to such bidding.
7. In the event of ambiguity, uncertainty, or discrepancy, the lot number and not the lot description on any bid will be deemed to be the lot on which the bid is made. 8. If more than one absentee bid on a particular lot is received with the same maximum bid amount, and that bid amount is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the bidder whose absentee bid was accepted first by Neal Auction Company after receiving it. If a bid placed on a lot by a bidder who is physically present at the auction is identical to an absentee bid for the lot and is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the person who is physically present at the auction. If a bid placed on a lot by a bidder who is present at the auction (in person or by telephone) is identical to an absentee bid for the lot and is the highest and best bid for the lot, the lot will be sold to the person who is present at the auction (in person or by telephone).
1. The successful bidder (except a successful online bidder) shall pay a buyer’s premium in the amount of 25% of the hammer price on each lot up to and including $200,000, plus 15% of the hammer price greater than $200,000. For payments made by cash, check, or wire transfer (except by online bidders) within 15 calendar days of the auction, the buyer’s premium will be discounted to 22%. 2. The successful online bidder shall pay a buyer’s premium in the amount of 28% of the hammer price on each lot. A discount for payments made by cash, check, or wire transfer is not available for purchases made by online bidders. 3.
In the event of any dispute, the Neal Auction Company sale record is conclusive.
4. Unless exempt by law, the buyer will be required to pay Louisiana and local taxes, and, if applicable, any federal luxury or other tax, on the total purchase price. 5. Documentation of tax exemption must be provided upon registration. Billing name and address of a bidder must agree with that on the sales tax exemption certificate. 6. Payment in full of the purchase price must be made by the successful bidder in U.S. Dollars within 15 calendar days of the auction. Interest charges of one and one-half percent per month shall apply to invoices paid after this period expires. Neal Auction Company reserves the right to require payment in full of the purchase price immediately following declaration of the successful bidder. 7. Payment for all jewelry purchases must be made by cash, check or wire transfer.
8. VISA, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express are accepted for payment of invoices (except jewelry) up to $25,000 per buyer. 9. Checks must be drawn on a U.S. bank. All lots shall be held by Neal Auction Company until the check clears.
10. The buyer’s signature on a registration form (or other writing with the buyer’s credit card number) gives Neal Auction Company permission to charge the buyer’s credit card the full amount of the buyer’s invoice if full payment is not received within 15 calendar days of the auction or, in Neal Auction Company’s discretion, to charge the buyer’s credit card later, with interest at the rate of one and one-half percent per month. PACKING, MOVING, SHIPPING, AND DELIVERY
Neal Auction Company may furnish information on packers, movers, or shippers for bidders or buyers making packing, moving, shipping, and delivery arrangements, but Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible therefore, and buyers retain packers, movers, and shippers at their own risk and peril. Shipping, moving, packing, and delivery arrangements and agreements are strictly between the buyer and the shipper, mover, or packer. Neal Auction Company shall not be liable, obligated, or responsible for any damage to property, including vehicles, or for any personal injuries of buyer or any third parties involved in packing, moving, shipping, or delivery. Buyers WAIVE and RELEASE Neal Auction Company (and its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) from any and all claims relating to packing, moving, shipping, and delivery of purchased lots, and any damage or injuries to persons or property arising therefrom.
Any action of any nature brought by a bidder or buyer against Neal Auction Company (and/or its owners, directors, officers, representatives, insurers, and/or employees) and/or the consignor of any lot in any court, whether federal or state, shall be brought exclusively in Orleans Parish, Louisiana. Every bidder and buyer agrees to submit to jurisdiction and venue in federal or state court in Orleans Parish, Louisiana, waives all objections or challenges to such jurisdiction or venue, and waives any rights to jurisdiction or venue in any other forum. Any dispute between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company (and/or its owners, directors, officers, representatives, insurers, and/or employees) and/or the consignor of any lot shall be governed by the law of the State of Louisiana, notwithstanding any conflicts of laws principles. MISCELLANEOUS LEGAL PROVISIONS
If any part of these Conditions of Sale is held to be invalid, null, or unenforceable, that part shall be reformed so as to implement the intent of the parties as expressed herein, and any such holding shall not affect the remaining provisions of these Conditions of Sale, which shall remain in full force and effect, subject to reformation to implement the intent of the parties as expressed herein. The paragraph headings contained herein are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Conditions of Sale. All prior and contemporaneous representations, communications, and agreements, if any, between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company (and any of its owners, officers, directors, representatives, insurers, agents, and employees) relating to any of the lots offered for sale or to the auction or sale are hereby superseded and merged into these Conditions of Sale, which are the entire and only contract between the bidder or buyer and Neal Auction Company relating to the subject matter herein. Any modifications, amendments, or waivers of these Conditions of Sale must be made in a writing signed by both Neal Auction Company and the bidder or buyer.
