Letter from the CEO

Renowned author and interior designer Alessandra Branca was recently recognized by domino magazine’s editorial director, Robert Leleux, for her fresh and fervent philosophy on decorating: “She said that you can approach interior design either as an expression of self, with furnishings and objects that directly reflect your own experience, or as the pursuit of a showplace, stocked with attractive yet impersonal items.”

President Ashton Thomas, CEO Susan D. Sarofim and Director of Auctions Tessa Steinkamp

That’s a fairly universal thought, but Leleux added, “…Alessandra also said that, in her experience, there’s karma associated with decorating and that the people who pursue the first option are ultimately happier. So, in some sense, the way you relate to your sofa is, like it or not, the way you relate to the people in your life, because you are either being authentic, or you’re not.” It is in those final words, in their succinct clarity, that reveal a profound truth.

Auction items are what they are; there’s no pretense. Some come through the door with age showing; paint scraped away here, a few chips showing there, fabric that’s been worn, torn and frayed; but yet they are beautiful, having lived useful lives. At the opposite end, we have showpieces that come sailing in, still grand, marvelous and commanding respect. And then there are all of those items that fall somewhere in between. In the past three years, as I’ve gotten to know many of our browsers, bidders and buyers, I’ve come to appreciate the auction process from a different perspective. I realize shopping for auction items can bring an immediate attraction. The piece whispers, “Take me home. I’m yours.” I’ve actually stopped, turned around, sometimes in surprise, to consider the possibilities. And when I know in my heart I have no use for the object, nowhere for it to live, my next reaction is to hope it goes to an appreciative bidder. Auction aficionados are in love with the hunt, of course, but it isn’t simply about the passion of pursuit. They seek to bring a piece of the past into the present, and, as Branca said and Leleux agreed, it becomes an interpretation of who they are and what they wish for their life’s experience to be. Like the objects they collect, they are originals, often shunning the conventions of established decorating concepts. They don’t care because they’re creating a place and a life that reflects who they are, not who they want people to think they are. With the opening of each auction, as the guests move about the showroom, I can now quickly find those among us who are the true auction lovers. I see the joy in their eyes and hear the edge of excitement in their voices as they search for what will become that tangible “expression of self” - and the karma of decorating authentically. At New Orleans Auction Galleries, we too are always on the hunt, searching for the art, furniture, jewelry, and eclectic pieces that will make you want to bid. To that end, we are so pleased and excited to introduce you to our newest team member, Nicole Casi. Nicole joins New Orleans Auction Galleries after more than a decade of scholarship, academia and instruction in art history and visual studies, as well as some excellent auction house experience. Auction aficionados, come by the gallery and view and fall in love with one of our 1,017 lots during our two-week exhibition, or attend our evening reception on Thursday, July 23 from 5-8 p.m. The auction begins at 10 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday, July 25-26. Happy hunting!

The E s tat e of V iole ta Jude ll Va n R onz e le n N e w Or l e a n s , Lo u i si a n a a nd L i m a , P e r u

An elegant woman with exquisite taste and a knack for collecting only the finest things, Violeta Judell Van Ronzelen was born in 1921 in Lima, Peru. Her mother’s family emigrated from Spain in the early 1700s, remaining there for generations. Violeta attended school at Sacred Heart in Vienna each fall, returning to her family’s home in the Barranco district of Lima, a fashionable beach resort, for the summer months. She continued her education in Europe until the German invasion of Vienna when her family was compelled to return to Peru by way of Holland, forcing her to complete her education in Lima. At age 25, Violeta worked as a flight attendant for Pan American Grace Airways, flying throughout the United States and South America and fulfilling her lifelong passion for travel. Her educational background and remarkable fluency in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian and German afforded her an opportunity to become an interpreter at the United Nations. A 1946 newspaper article remarked, “Speaking in six languages doesn’t faze Violeta Van Ronzelen, the blonde, green-eyed Peruvian interpreter of the U.N. assembly, but the rush and hubbub of New York City does. The 25-year-old stewardess […] was given a special leave of absence to interpret for the South American delegates.” Violeta met her husband of many years, Harold Judell, when he was stationed in Lima working as a counterespionage agent. Judell began his career as an FBI investigator in New Orleans, Newark and Baltimore before being transferred to Washington to serve as an administrative assistant to FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover. After a year at the bureau’s headquarters, Judell was selected for the Special Intelligence Service. After serving in the Navy, Judell married Van Ronzelen and the two moved to New Orleans, where they lived for the duration of their marriage. From a young age, architecture had always been a passion for Violeta. While in New Orleans, she purchased and rebuilt 2434 St. Charles Avenue. Working with New Orleans architect Barry Fox, Violeta designed and constructed a condominium building. Her impeccable taste helped her to succeed at this business venture as she oversaw the entire project from beginning to end, from the initial design to the staging and presenting of the property to potential buyers once construction was complete. Judell and Van Ronzelen eventually divorced and Violeta moved back to Lima, residing in the San Isidro neighborhood. New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to offer a selection of English and Continental fine art, furniture and silver, including colonial and contemporary Peruvian examples, from the Estate of Violeta Judell Van Ronzelen. The collection reflects the elegant formality that she exuded throughout her life.

Abraham Mignon’s still lifes belong to the canon of the Dutch Golden Age. Shortly after arriving in Utrect from his native Germany, Mignon joined St. Luke’s painters guild, where he met and trained under the Dutch still life master Jan de Heem. Mignon went on to become one of the most celebrated painters of St. Luke’s guild, producing work for King Louis XIV and the Electorate of Saxony. Mignon’s delicate style of diverse flowers and fruits reflect the maritime prosperity of the Dutch Republic, which controlled European trade to the East through the East India Company. Peaches, poppies, pomegranates, indigenous to China and Southwest Asia, were revered delicacies in 17th century Holland. To possess a table with such an assortment of flowers and ripe fruits, which Mignon often accentuated with mollusks and butterflies, was the ultimate symbol of secular wealth. The painting offered here exemplifies many of the distinct qualities of Mignon’s work, notably the use of chiaroscuro in the foreground, which brilliantly lights the peonies and peaches against a dark background on a slight diagonal plane that barely recedes in space. The lighting of the peaches almost makes them appear white against the red peony. Centering a composition by the juxtaposition of red and white flowers/fruit was one of Mignon’s trademark characteristics, as was the use of sunflowers and grape leaves as framing devices. This painting is probably from the St. Luke guild circle of Abraham Mignon, possibly even the apprenticed hand of one of Mignon’s disciples: Elias van den Broeck (1649‑1708), Ernest Stuven (1657‑1712) or Willem Grasdorp (1678‑1723). The massive gilt frame is of equal historic merit. The partially effaced inscription on the side, which denotes the tile and birth date in German of Georg Frederick Carl Joseph, Grand Duke of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, along with the different rabbets on two of the four sides, strongly suggests that the frame once contained a portrait of the Duke. Sometime between the early to mid-19th century, this frame was cut down and resized to fit the current painting from the circle of Mignon.

Framed. [2500/4000] Illustrated This painting is a fine example of the style of Italianate views that Nicolaes Berchem perfected in the late 1650s-1660s. The arrangement of peasants and cattle/ sheep, framed by imposing skies and golden crepuscles, in hilly landscapes dotted with classical ruins, are recurring subjects in Berchem’s work. His fine attention to the effects of lighting on texture through delicate brush work transforms daily scenes into veritable pastorals and vedute capriccios. The painting offered here closely shares these compositional and stylistic characteristics, notable Berchem’s finesse for texture: the wisped tree leaves at the periphery of the sky scintillate warm amber hues as the sun sets; the interlocking layered circles of paint in the cattle’s head and wooly sheep capture the curled coarseness of their hair; even the weave on the boy’s sock, reflected by the light, is evidenced. 209 Continental Mahogany and Onyx-Top Commode, in the rococo taste, the onyx top with a molded edge and canted corners, above a conforming case fitted with a carved laurel swag over two roundel drawers with lattice and floral carving, raised on splayed legs ending in scrolled toes, h. 43‑1/2”, w. 49‑1/2”, d. 24‑1/2”.

Glazed, handsomely matted and framed alike. Provenance: Ex-collection Walker Ronaldson, New Orleans, Louisiana. [2500/4000] Illustrated Johannes Kip, a Dutch engraver and draughtsman, who worked under the auspices of William of Orange in Amsterdam, moved to London at the end of the 17th century, where he established a thriving print business working for various publishers. The twelve etchings offered here comprise one of the most important English topographical publications of the 18th century titled Britannia Illustrata (1707), or Views of Several of the Queen’s Palaces, also of the Principal Seats of the Nobility and Gentry of Great Britain (1707‑1709), which was also published in French (1715). Originally, Kip collaborated on the project with fellow Dutchman Leonard Knyff, doing etchings after his bird’s eye view drawings of the country seats. As the “delin.” and “sculp.” notations in the lower right corners of these etchings indicate, Kip also began to create his own drawings as the project progressed. Between 1716 and 1728, three more volumes and a supplement were added to Britannia Illustrata.

The latter is nearly identical in form with the exception of two notable differences: the chair backs have foliate-carved splats centered by an octagonalshaped sunburst masques’ and the arm supports are carved in the likeness of eagle heads, instead of maidens. Both Voronikhin’s chairs are conserved at the Pavlovsk Palace, and have been illustrated widely. The boudoir set, identical to the ones offered here, were exhibited and illustrated in the accompanying catalogue Palaces of St. Petersburg: Russian Imperial Style, Mississippi Arts Pavilion, 1996.

The sunburst crest rails and entwined serpents in the settee and sidechair splats, are characteristic of Empire-style examples that Voronikhim and his designers had executed for Empress Maria Feodorovna in the workshop of Carl Sheibe, court cabinetmaker. The serpents, influenced by Eastern mysticism and recent excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum, were thought to symbolize everlasting love/ life in 19th century Europe and were employed throughout Faberge designs on snuff boxes and cigarette cases. 283 Pair of French Empire-Style Gilt-Metal Seven-Light Sconces, mid-20th century, the rectangular backplates with leaf-carved and fluted balusters, set with scrolled arms terminating in matching candle cups, h. 37”, w. 13‑3/4”, d. 7‑1/2”.

286 Highly Important Russian Neoclassical Mahogany Bureau Cylindre “Trois Corps”, late 18th century, in the Jacob style, the galleried pediment with ormolu urn finials, above a triangular-patterned central frieze flanked to either side by a stepped gallery, above a conforming case fitted with a central astragal-glazed cabinet, flanked to either side by fluted uprights with Ionic capitals and a cupboard door, the lower section fitted with three small drawers over an oval-patterned cylindre opening to a mechanical pull-out leather-inset writing surface and a variety of drawers and cubbyholes, over a bank of four graduated drawers, flanked to either side by a recessed paneled cupboard and further flanked by a freestanding fluted column, raised on tapering square legs, the whole richly adorned with decorative inlaid brass banding and panels, h. 93”, w. 50‑1/2”, d. 24”. [100000/150000] Illustrated

This rare “trois corps” bureau bookcase exemplifies the Russian “Jacob” style as it closely relates to examples illustrated in Antoine Cheneviere’s Russian Furniture, (2001), 33. 124‑126. Characterized by clear geometric lines inspired by Palladian architecture, the style is accentuated by elaborate brass stripping and cross hatching as evidenced by the inlaid drawers and tracery on the glass door offered here. This piece, clearly influenced by Roetengen, is more likely attributed to the workshop of Christian Meyer than Gambs and Ott. Though both firms supplied large quantities of Jacob-style furniture for the Imperial court, the latter incorporated more elements of the Empire style than the former. Other mahogany cylinder bureaus, bearing similar design and form, are conserved in the formal reception room of the Alexander Palace and Pavlovsk Palace.

287 Suite of Six Russian Neoclassical Mahogany Sidechairs, early 19th century, in the Jacob style, each with a rectangular back with pierced interlacing diamond patterns, all with ribbed brass-inlaid banding, the padded seat raised on tapering square legs joined by an H-form stretcher and ending in peg feet, the base inlaid en suite, h. 35‑1/2”. [4000/7000] Illustrated Identical sidechairs to the ones offered here are conserved throughout Russian Imperial Palaces/ Museums: a set of ten dining chairs is in the library of the Empress at Pavlovsk Palace; one is conserved by the Hermitage Museum in room 176 of the Winter Palace; and a third, in the Wing of Catherine the Great at the Monplaisir Palace, is illustrated in Antoine Cheneviere’s Russian Furniture: the Golden Age, as plat 104, page. 121. According to specialist Anatoly Kuchumov, author of Pavlovsk Palace and Park, these Jacobeanstyle chairs, with their characteristic mahogany veneers accentuated by brass fluted stipping and roundels, were probably made in the workshop of Heinrich Gambs, ca. 1790, even though they are attributed to Jonathan Ott, who oversaw the firm’s accounting.

328 James Digman Wingfield (British, 1800‑1872), Eight Oil-on-Canvas Panels, ca. 1866, signed and dated in self-portrait lower right, mounted within an English walnut double-sided screen, overall, h. 83‑1/2”, l. 106‑1/2”. Provenance: Estate of the Artist, Messrs. Christie, Manson & Wood, London, July 13, 1872, lot 199; George Richards Burnett, Esquire (1823‑1915). Illustrated: Phillips, Betty Lou. Villa Decor. Layton, UT: Gibbs Smith, 2002, p.102. [8000/12000] Illustrated This rare screen, comprised of eight panels and thirty-two pictures titled in tromp-l’oeil frames, is as illustrious as its history. It was featured in Villa Decor in 2000 as part of a prominent New Orleans furniture collection, and it was one of the four screens in the studio of James Digman Wingfield at the time of his death. It is the only known screen by Wingfield to come to auction since it was sold in the artist’s estate auction in July, 1872 by Messrs. Christie, Manson and Wood (now Christie’s) to George Richards Burnett, an English squire in the London banking insurance business. Burnett, an avid art collector, consigned and purchased hundreds of paintings through Christie’s during the latter part of the 19th century. In addition to Wingfields, Burnett’s collection included Constables, Turners, Bonheurs, Velazquezs and Israels. The screen’s stacked arrangement of paintings in columns and rows was prototypical of 19th-century Salon-style exhibitions, and can be seen throughout Wingfield’s famed interiors of Hampton Court Palace, such as “Schonheitsgalerie (Beauty Gallery),” 1849 and “the Cartoon Gallery,” 1840‑1850. Divided by subjects and themes, the rows on the double-sided screen are an homage to the English courts and 17th-century Baroque masters, as well as a celebration of Wingfield’s oeuvre within this tradition. The portraits of women that line the top rows are not only reproductions of Sir Peter Lely’s “Windsor Beauties” that were displayed at Hampton Court Palace, but they are also reproduced in Wingfield’s painting of the Palace’s female portrait gallery. The second and third rows, largely painted by Wingfield, present another intertextual assortment of historical and fictive personages and views of London, such as “Amy Robsart” - the ill-fated wife of Lord Dudley”, “Belinda” - after poet Alexander Pope’s celebrated beauty, and “Rehearsal” and “Beau”- after two garden views of Hampton Court. Equally telling is Wingfield’s signed and dated self-portrait in the dress of a 17th-century master inserted in the fourth row among other period master portraits including: Titian, Murillo, Rubens, van Dyck, Dobson, Gainsborough and Reynolds. As this screen demonstrates, Wingfield, an active member of the Royal Academy, achieved much recognition in his life for his historical landscapes and interiors. A screen strikingly similar to this one was purchased by Colnaghi, a preeminent London gallery, at Christie’s June 27, 1863 sale for an impressive 335 guineas, the equivalent of roughly 167,000 British pounds by today’s standard. The Art Journal described it as a “series of thirty-two pictures by J. D. Wingfield, including sixteen original compositions, views of Hampton Court, with historical subjects...” that featured Lely’s courtly beauties and works after the same 17th-century masters portrayed in the fourth row on this lot. Given the screen’s illustrious history, shrouded for almost a century in mystery, it is a stunning example of an academic artist paying tribute to the history of art as well as immortalizing himself in a decorative object.

[1400/1800] Illustrated Lots 355-357 are examples of the Regency-Era Sheffield firm of Samuel & Charles Younge & Co., which was organized on August 18, 1810 by brothers Samuel (17611840) and Charles Younge (1771-1831) with George Kitchen of Sheffield and Henry Walker of London. The firm was a continuation of the firm of John Trevers Younge & Co., founded in 1779, John Trevers Younge (1719-1807), being the father of Samuel and Charles. The firm, which entered its first mark on July 15, 1811, produced a wide variety of silver tablewares, as evidenced by the present lot, but the Younge brothers also concurrently ran a wine & spirit dealership. By the late 1820s, the latter business was their primary concern, and the silver business seems to have stopped the production of completed silverware and concentrated on operating a rolling press providing sheet silver, copper and (presumably) fused sheets of the two for Sheffield Plate. After the deaths of the Younge brothers, both business were run by Charles’ son Robert Younge (1799-1874), the metal rolling mill closing around 1855, with the wine and spirit concern continuing until Robert’s death. 356 Set of Four George IV Sterling Silver Wine Coasters, hallmarked Sheffield, 1827‑1828, by Samuel & Charles Younge & Co.

369 Fine Cased Victorian SixtyFive-Piece Sterling Silver Gilt “Bacchanalian” Dessert Service, hallmarked London, 1885‑1887, by Wakely & Wheeler, the pattern designed ca. 1812 by Thomas Stothard (1755‑1834), comprising eighteen three-piece dessert settings, with six berry spoons and five additional serving pieces, no monograms, 152.07 total t. oz. (including filledhandle pieces with silver blades/ tines), presented in the original calamander cabinet, the cupboard doors opening to reveal four fitted, burgundy velvet-lined drawers, two with lift-out trays, 13” x 16‑1/2” x 13‑1/4”, above a later rectangular faux calamander-finished table with tapering legs, 26‑1/2” x 19‑3/4” x 15” (overall height 39‑1/2”). Detailed list of pieces available on request. [2000/4000] Illustrated

The intricate and ornate “Bacchanalian” pattern was designed around 1812 by noted illustrator Thomas Stothard (1755-1834) for Rundell, Bridge & Rundell, Principal Goldsmiths & Jewellers to the King. (Indeed, the earliest known examples of the pattern are those in the Royal Collection hallmarked 1812.) The pattern is wholly representative of Stothard’s exuberant classical style based on Roman cameos and other carvings, and is echoed in his larger silver masterworks, the Bacchic Vase and Bacchus and Ariadne Charger. The pattern was almost invariably gilded and reserved for elaborate dessert sets, as the present lot, which was created by the Victorian firm of James Wakely (1851-1929) and Frank Clark Wheeler (1859-1918), formed in 1884 as successors to the 18th century firm John Lias & Son.

Glazed, float mounted and framed. Exhibited: New Orleans Museum of Art, “Sister Gertrude Morgan”, curated by William A. Fagaly, 1988. [2000/4000] Illustrated

This stunning jazz scene, purchased in the 1990s when Bob Crutchfield was the director at Galerie Royale, is among Tolliver’s finest “Blues Scenes”. Crutchfield, who first discovered and represented Tolliver’s works at his gallery Live Oaks, in LaFayette, was instrumental in launching both Tolliver’s career and the Galerie Royale, while he was the director of the latter gallery. Highly coveted by collectors, this painting remained in the personal collection of the gallery for decades before being offered for sale. “Jazz Band”, the work offered here, is an extraordinary piece that rivals two of Tolliver’s most iconic paintings: “Transcendence of the Blues”, which was featured at the New Orleans Festival and exhibited across the country, and “Luther”- a tribute to the legendary bluesman. Tolliver’s “Blues Scenes” are a symphony of harmony and color that celebrate the landscape and people of the deep South. “Nothing in my paintings”, Tolliver asserted in an interview, “are for decoration: everything serves a purpose in creating the mood or atmosphere of a painting”. Tolliver, an African-American artists from Vicksburg, Mississippi, is an autodidactic. His mother, who worked in the cotton fields, encouraged the young Tolliver to draw at night. By adolescence, Tolliver mowed lawns in order to pay for art supplies and coloring paint manuals. He was an avid reader and copiously studied the late 19th/early 20th century masters, such as Picasso, van Gogh, Cezanne and Chagall. Tolliver particularly identified with van Gogh’s sensitive treatment of working class laborers from poverty stricken mining and farming towns. Similarly, Tolliver’s cotton pickers and back-alley jazz men, who often work the land by day, as noted by their rugged, enormous hands, are monuments unto themselves that fill the picture plane with an imposing elegiac presence. Their solid compositional forms recall the Cubist style of Picasso and Cezanne, while the vivid colors and black tracery evoke the religious lyricism of Chagall’s stain glass windows.

He engaged the firm of Carrere and Hastings to decorate the 204‑room house, interior elements of which are documented as having been crafted by the Herter Firm. During the 1880s, the Herter firm and their principal competitor Pottier and Stymus, shifted their focus from the production of art furniture to crafting interior elements for the homes of America’s robber barons.

In 1941‑42, the house was razed. The grounds now form part of New York’s Rockefeller Park Preserve.

1. Introduction (a). These Conditions of Sale (“Conditions of Sale”) contain all the terms governing Auctions (defined below) conducted by Cakebread Art Antiques Collectables, Inc. d/b/a New Orleans Auction Galleries (“NOAG”), and all the terms under which NOAG and the Seller (defined below) of a Lot (defined below) contract with the Buyer (defined below). These Conditions of Sale may be amended by posted notices or oral announcements made during the Auction. (b). Under these Conditions of Sale, the following capitalized terms are defined as follows: • An “Auction” is a public auction conducted by NOAG, at which Bidders may place Bids to purchase one or more Lots offered for sale by NOAG. An Auction takes place over one or more days and includes separate auctions of one or more Lots within an event conducted by NOAG; • The “Auctioneer” is the auctioneer calling the Auction conducted by NOAG; A “Bid” is a bid made by a party at the Auction to purchase a Lot; • A “Bidder” is (i) a person making a Bid at the Auction (whether in person, through an absentee bid, through electronic or internet means, or through telephone bidding); and/or (ii) a person who attends the Auction and registers to make a Bid (whether in person, through an absentee bid, through electronic or internet means, or through telephone bidding); • A “Buyer” is the party that commits to purchase a Lot by submitting the Winning Bid at Auction; • “Buyer’s Premium” is defined in Section 4 below; • “Catalogue” is the Auction catalogue utilized by NOAG to list the Lots offered at Auction; • The “Estimates” are the high and low estimates of value for each Lot set forth in the Catalogue presented by NOAG in connection with the Auction or otherwise set forth and/or announced at the Auction; • The “Hammer Price” for a Lot is the amount of the Winning Bid at the Auction, as announced by the Auctioneer, exclusive of commissions, Buyer’s Premium, expenses, and any taxes or other charges; • A “Lot” is specific item of property offered for sale at Auction; The “Reserve” is defined in Section 3 below; • The “Purchase Price” is defined in Section 4 below; A “Sale” of a Lot occurs when a Winning Bid is declared at Auction for the Lot; • The “Seller” of a Lot is the party who consigned the Lot with NOAG for purposes of selling the Lot, or is otherwise the seller of the Lot; • The “Winning Bid” is, as to a particular Lot, the Bid recognized by the Auctioneer as the highest and best Bid for that Lot.

2. Before the Auction (a). ALL SALES ARE “AS IS, WHERE IS” WITH NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER. (i) NEITHER NOAG NOR THE SELLER PROVIDES ANY GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY AS TO THE NATURE, DESCRIPTION, GENUINENESS, PROVENANCE, IMPORTANCE, OR CONDITION OF THE LOT. All Sales and Auctions are without any representation or warranty of any kind by NOAG or the Seller. Bidders and Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the Lots and the matters referred to in the catalogue entry, the Condition Report, or in any other statement or writing provided. All Sales are final and are “AS IS WHERE IS.” (ii) No warranty of redhibition. ANY WARANTY AGAINST REDHIBITORY DEFECTS IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty against redhibitory defects, including without limitation: (x) any defects rendering a Lot useless or its use inconvenient; and (y) any defects diminishing the usefulness of a Lot; and any such warranties are waived and excluded. In addition, NOAG and Seller provide no warranties, guarantees, or representations as to whether a Lot is fit for its ordinary use, fit for Buyer’s intended use or for Buyer’s particular purpose. (iii) No warranty against eviction. ANY WARRANTY AGAINST EVICTION IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED. In the event that Buyer is evicted from possession of whole or part of the Lot, neither NOAG nor Seller have any duty whatsoever to return any part of the Purchase Price to Buyer. Buyer is buying at Buyer’s sole risk and peril as to third parties who may claim rights in the Lot after the Sale. (iv) No warranty as to authorship. NOAG does not make any express or implied warranty as to authorship of works of art and fine art. No statement in the Catalogue or elsewhere, orally or in writing, shall be construed as an express or implied warranty, representation or limitation of liability as to authorship. Any such warranty is WAIVED. (v) No warranty of peaceful possession, etc. The following warranties are waived and excluded: the absence of hidden defects, peaceful possession, and ownership. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty that the Lot is free from hidden defects, or for peaceful possession, or for ownership. (vi) No other warranties. None of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, give any representation, warranty or guarantee or assume any liability of any kind in respect of any Lot with regard to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, description, size, quality, condition, attribution, authenticity, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, exhibition history, literature or historical relevance. Except as required by local law, any express or implied warranty of any kind whatsoever is excluded by this Section 2(a). (b). Examination of property / Condition Reports. Prospective Buyers and Bidders are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the Auction takes place. As a convenience, Bidders may request that NOAG produce a Condition Report (“Condition Report”) for a Lot, which, if produced, will provide additional detail concerning the condition of the Lot as observed by NOAG’s staff. NOAG reserves the right to decline to produce a Condition Report for any specific Lot, for any reason and in NOAG’s sole discretion.

(c). Catalogue and other descriptions. (i) All statements made by NOAG as to condition, authorship, period, culture, source, origin, measurement, quality, rarity, provenance, importance, or historical relevance, whether in the Catalogue entry for the Lot, in the Condition Report, and/ or in a bill of sale, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, are qualified statements of opinion only and are not to be relied on as statements of fact. Such statements do not constitute a representation, warranty or assumption of liability by NOAG of any kind. References in the Catalogue entry or the Condition Report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the Bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. (ii) Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, are responsible for the correctness of any statement of whatever kind concerning any Lot, whether written or oral, nor for any other errors or omissions in description or for any faults or defects in any Lot. (iii) Any Estimates provided should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or its value for any other purpose. Any written or oral appraisal, Estimate or other statement of NOAG or our representatives with respect to the estimated or expected selling price of any Lot of Property is a statement of opinion only and shall not be relied upon by Bidders or prospective Bidders as a prediction or guarantee of the actual selling price. (iv) NOAG shall not be liable for any errors or omissions in catalogue or other descriptions of the Property. Neither NOAG nor the Seller is responsible in any way for errors and omissions in the catalogue, or any supplemental material. (d). Further acknowledgement. As a Bidder and prospective Buyer, you further agree and acknowledge that: (i) You are not relying on NOAG’s skill or judgment in selecting to purchase any Lot; (ii) No oral or written statements in the Auction Catalogue, Condition Report, or elsewhere are the cause of or reason behind your purchase of any Lot; and you would have incurred such purchase regardless of any oral or written statements about condition, attribution, kind, quality, value, or authorship made in the catalogue or elsewhere; (iii) NOAG did not and could not have known that condition, attribution, kind, quality, expressed value, or authorship is the cause or reason why you decide to purchase any Lot; (iv) Your purchase of any Lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; and (v) NOAG did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral or written statement about a Lot in the catalogue, Condition Report or elsewhere would cause a nonpecuniary loss to a Buyer.

3. At the Auction (a). Registration before bidding / Bidding requirements. In order to be accepted as a Bidder and allowed to place a Bid, all Bidders must meet all of the following requirements: (i) A Bidder must complete and sign the attached registration form and provide identification to NOAG; (ii) NOAG may require the production of bank or other financial references or any other additional information; (iii) When making a Bid, a Bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the Purchase Price in full in the event that the Bidder submits the Winning Bid, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with NOAG before the auction of the Lot that the Bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to NOAG, and that NOAG will only look to that principal for payment (iv) All Bids are to be made in U.S. currency unless agreed upon between NOAG and the Bidder; and (v) At NOAG’s sole discretion, NOAG may require any Bidder to post a cash deposit in an amount set by NOAG at its sole discretion. Such deposit may include, without limitation, a deposit of 25% of the Maximum Bid (or another amount set in NOAG’s sole discretion) in the case of Absentee Bids (defined below). (b). Refusal of admission / Rejection of Bidders. NOAG has the right, at its complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any Auction. NOAG reserves the right to reject any Bidder for any reason whatsoever and in NOAG’s sole discretion. (c). Absentee bids / Telephone bids. (i) As a convenience to Bidders, NOAG may allow a Bidder to submit an absentee bid (“Absentee Bid”) or telephone bid (“Telephone Bid”) by filling out (in full) the section of the attached registration form marked “Absentee Bids / Telephone Bids.” In order to submit an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid for an Auction, that registration form must be filled out and submitted to NOAG no later than 5:00 p.m. central time on the last business day before the commencement of the Auction. (NOAG reserves the right to accept late Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid submissions in NOAG’s sole discretion.) All Absentee Bid submissions must include a maximum bid amount (“Maximum Bid”). (ii) If an Absentee Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, the Auctioneer or other NOAG staff will place the Absentee Bid at the amount of the opening bid amount, and will increase the amount as necessary until the earlier of (x) the Absentee Bid is the Winning Bid; or (y) the amount reaches the Maximum Bid. All such actions in this paragraph are at the sole discretion of the Auctioneer and/ or NOAG. If NOAG receives Absentee Bids on a particular Lot with identical Maximum Bid amounts, and at the Auction these are the highest bids on the Lot, the Lot will be sold to the person whose Absentee Bid was received and accepted first. In the event of a tie bid between an Absentee Bid and a Bid submitted by a Bidder physically present at the Auction (or a Telephone Bid), the Lot will be sold to physically present Bidder (or bidder submitting the Telephone Bid).

(iii) If a Telephone Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, NOAG staff shall attempt to contact the Bidder using the telephone number provided. If successfully contacted, the Bidder shall then be afforded the opportunity to place a Bid on the Lot by telephone. Telephone Bids may be recorded. By submitting a Telephone Bid, the Bidder consents to the recording of the conversation and the placing of the Bid. (iv) Execution of Absentee Bids and Telephone Bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the Auction and neither NOAG nor the Auctioneer shall have any liability for failing to execute an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid or for errors and omissions in connection therewith.

(d). Video or digital images. At some Auctions there may be a video or digital screen. Errors may occur in its operation and in the quality of the image and we do not accept liability for such errors. NOAG reserves the right to video tape and record proceedings at any Auctions. Any personal information obtained will be held in confidence by NOAG but may be used or shared with our affiliates and marketing partners for customer analysis purposes and to help us to tailor our services to buyer requirements. Any Bidder attending an Auction in person who does not wish to be video-taped may make arrangements to make a Telephone Bid in accordance with Section 3(c) above. (e). Reserves. All Lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold (the “Reserve”). The Reserve for a Lot will not exceed the low Estimate for that Lot. The Auctioneer may open the bidding on any Lot below the Reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller. The Auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the Reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lot may be sold at a Hammer Price below the Reserve, at the discretion of the Auctioneer and NOAG, in any manner consistent with the agreement between NOAG and the Seller. (f). No bidding by Seller. Under no circumstances shall Seller (as agent or principal), whether by itself or through its representatives, employees or agents (except as through the Auctioneer as set forth in Section 3(e) above), enter or cause to be entered a Bid on Seller’s Lot. (g). Auctioneer’s discretion. The Auctioneer has the right at his or her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any Bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he or she may decide, to withdraw or divide any Lot, to combine any two or more Lots, and in the event of any error or dispute, to determine the Winning Bid, to continue the bidding, to cancel the Sale or to reoffer and resell the Lot or item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the Sale, NOAG’s sale record is conclusive. Unless otherwise announced by the Auctioneer at the time of Sale, all Bids are per Lot as numbered in the Catalogue and no Lot shall be divided for Sale. NOAG and/or the Auctioneer may withdraw any Lot at any time before such Lot is offered at Auction, for any reason and in their sole and absolute discretion. (h). Successful bid and passing of risk. The Auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the Winning Bid and the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer marks the acceptance of the highest and best bid as the Winning Bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the Seller and the Buyer. Risk and responsibility for the Lot but not its title passes to the Buyer immediately upon announcement of the Winning Bid at the Auction. (i). Post-auction sale. In the event that there is no Winning Bid at Auction for a Lot, or the Lot is withdrawn from the Auction, or the Sale is cancelled for non-payment pursuant to Section 4(g) below, NOAG may sell the Lot at public or private sale at any time thereafter, in a manner consistent with the agreement between Seller and NOAG. (j). NOAG assumes no responsibility for failure to execute Bids for any reason whatsoever.

4. After the Auction (a). In order to consummate and complete the Sale, the Buyer must tender payment in full of all of the following amounts (all such amounts together being the “Purchase Price”) to NOAG: (i) the Hammer Price; and (ii) the “Buyer’s Premium” consisting of a premium of 23% of the Hammer Price (discounted to 20% if the method of payment is by check, cash, or wire transfer by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction) up to and including a Hammer Price of $200,000 and 10% of the amount by which the Lot’s Hammer Price exceeds $200,000; and (iii) Any applicable Louisiana, state, local, and federal or other taxes, calculated as required by law. Any documentation of tax exemption must be provided by the Bidder contemporaneously with the execution of the attached registration form. (b). Payment and passing of title. The Buyer and any other Bidders are responsible for contacting NOAG for Auction results during the week after the conclusion of the Auction. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(i) below which may require earlier payment, the Buyer must pay the full Purchase Price no later than 4:30 pm central time on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction. Payments may be submitted during business hours to: New Orleans Auction Galleries, 333 St. Joseph Street, New Orleans, Louisiana 70130, Telephone number: 504-566-1849. Payments may be made by certified check, cash, wire transfer, or credit card (Visa, Mastercard, and American Express). Payments will be accepted by non-certified check only in NOAG’s sole discretion, from Buyers that have been qualified by NOAG in NOAG’s sole discretion. Title to the Lot does not pass to the Buyer until the full amount of the Purchase Price has been tendered and received by NOAG in good cleared funds, even in circumstances where the Lot has been released to the Buyer. (c). Credit Cards. Your signature on this form constitutes permission to charge the full amount of the Purchase Price on your credit card, if you are the Buyer on a Lot and payment is not received within five business days of the close of the Auction. Your signature on this form also constitutes permission to charge the full amount of Storage Charges (defined below), if and when accrued, on a periodic basis on your credit card. (d). Release of Lot to Buyer. No Lot will be released to the Buyer unless and until NOAG receives full payment of the Purchase Price, and such payment has cleared and NOAG has received confirmation of all funds owed. At its sole discretion, NOAG may release a specific Lot at any time, notwithstanding the foregoing provision. In addition, NOAG may require that Lots not be released until the Buyer has cleared additional checks in NOAG’s sole discretion, including without limitation, any anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism financing checks to NOAG’s satisfaction. In the event that a Buyer fails to complete any anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism financing checks to NOAG’s satisfaction, NOAG shall be entitled to cancel the Sale and take any other action permitted or required under applicable law. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Lots cannot be released until after the conclusion of the Auction. (e). Export/Import license and Dealers. It is the Buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import license. The denial of any license or any delay in obtaining licenses shall not justify the rescission of any sale nor any delay in making bill payment for the Lot; and shall not limit or alter any of the obligations of the Buyer herein. Dealers purchasing for resale must enter appropriate their Dealer Resale Number on the attached registration form and provide NOAG with proper documentation.

(f). Storage charge. Subject to the foregoing provisions, any Lot that is not picked up by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction is subject to an additional storage charge of $5.00 per Lot per day (“Storage Charge”) for as long as the Lot is stored at NOAG’s facilities. The outstanding amount of this Storage Charge must be paid in full (in addition to the Purchase Price) before such Lot will be released to the Buyer. Such Storage Charge accrues on a daily basis and is billed monthly. All items handled or stored will be at the Buyer’s risk. NOAG is not liable for any damage to Lots after the conclusion of the Auction. (g). Remedies for non-payment. If the Buyer fails to make payment in full of the Purchase Price in good cleared funds within the time required by Section 4(b) above, or payment in full of any applicable Storage Charge when incurred, NOAG shall be entitled in its absolute discretion to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies (in addition to asserting any other rights or remedies available by law): (i) to charge outstanding amounts to the Buyer’s credit card; (ii) to charge interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (but not to exceed the highest amount chargeable under applicable law); (iii) to hold the Buyer liable for the total amount due and to commence legal proceedings for its recovery together with interest, legal fees and costs to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law; (iv) to exercise any other remedy or remedies available under the law, including but not limited to a second sale of said item in accordance with the provisions of applicable law, including the subsequent enforcement of any deficiency against the initial buyer; (v) to cancel the sale; (vi) to resell the property publicly or privately on such terms as we shall think fit; (vii) to pay the Seller an amount up to the net proceeds payable in respect of the amount bid by the defaulting Buyer; (viii) to set off against any amounts which NOAG may owe the Buyer in any other transactions, the outstanding amount remaining unpaid by the Buyer; (ix) where several amounts are owed by the Buyer to NOAG, in respect of different transactions, to apply any amount paid to discharge any amount owed in respect of any particular transaction, whether or not the Buyer so directs; (x) to reject at any future Auction any Bids made by or on behalf of the Buyer or to obtain a deposit from the Buyer before accepting any Bids; (xi) to exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security and/or privilege over any property in our possession owned by the Buyer, whether by way of pledge, security interest or in any other way, to the fullest extent permitted under Louisiana law (including without limitation under La. Civil Code art. 3247, La. R.S. 10:7-209 and 10:7-210 and other applicable law), or (xii) to take such other action as NOAG deems necessary or appropriate. In connection with the item (xi) above, the Buyer will be deemed to have granted such security to NOAG and NOAG may retain the affected Lot and any property of the Buyer as collateral security for such Buyer’s obligations to NOAG and to the Seller

If we resell the property under Section 4(g)(vi) above, the Buyer shall be liable for payment of any deficiency between the total amount originally due to us and the price obtained upon resale as well as for all costs, expenses, damages, legal fees and commissions and premiums of whatever kind associated with both sales or otherwise arising from the default. If we pay any amount to the Seller under paragraph (vii) above, the Buyer acknowledges that NOAG shall have all of the rights of the Seller, however arising, to pursue the Buyer for such amount. (h). Shipping and packing. All shipping, packing, and transportation of Lots from NOAG’s facilities is the responsibility of Buyer. NOAG may, as a courtesy, assist Buyer with necessary arrangements, but by doing so, NOAG assumes no responsibility or liability for shipping, packing, moving, or transportation, including without limitation damage to Lots, damage to Buyer’s vehicle, or any personal injury of any persons involved. (i). Earlier payment may be required. For any specific Lot, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(b) above, NOAG may require, in its sole discretion, that the Hammer Price for the Lot be paid immediately upon the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer and announcement of the Winning Bid, with the balance of the Purchase Price being due by the close of the Auction.

5.Copyright The copyright in all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for NOAG relating to a Lot including without limitation the contents of the Catalogue, is and shall remain at all times the property of NOAG and shall not be used by the Buyer or Bidder, nor by anyone else, without our prior written consent. NOAG and the Seller make no representation or warranty that the Buyer of a Lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights in it.

6. Severability If any part of these Conditions of Sale is found by any court to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that part shall be discounted and the rest of the conditions shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

7. Data Collection In connection with the operation of our auction business, NOAG may need to seek personal information from Bidders or obtain information about Bidders from third parties (e.g., credit checks from banks). Such information will be processed and kept by us in confidence. Some of Bidders’ personal data may also need to be shared with third party service providers (e.g., shipping or storage companies) for Bidders’ benefit. By participating in an Auction, you agree to all previously stated disclosure.

8. Law and Jurisdiction The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to these Conditions of Sale, the conduct of the Auction and any matters connected with any of the foregoing shall be governed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Louisiana.
