LETTER FROM THE CEO More years ago than I care to remember, I was a single, working mom with all of the responsibilities that come with that way of life. But no matter the circumstances, I always happily greeted the holiday season as a time to celebrate joy for joy’s sake.

My little one and I lived in New Orleans on the top floor of a tiny, two-story walk-up, which was more old and cold than charming. But at Christmas, with our tree festooned with multicolored lights and a mismatch of sparkly decorations placed here and there, our little place in the world glowed with unabashed holiday cheer.

One of my treasured holiday traditions at that time was settling into my fluffy sofa late in the evening when all was as still as a mouse, with a cup of steaming cinnamon tea in one hand and the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book in the other. Despite my situation and ever the optimist, I’ve always dreamed big, and that book allowed my imagination to soar. I wondered at marvels like his-and-her hot air balloons, Chinese junks, camels to be had for your very own, Cinderella ballgowns and so much more. It was a paper-and-ink portal to a lifestyle that was so foreign to mine, and so fascinating!

One Christmas Book tradition I particularly enjoyed was the showcasing of luxury, eclectic automobiles. Beginning with the BMW Z3 roadster in 1995, the cars often sold out in 24 hours. So you can imagine my excitement when I learned New Orleans Auction Galleries would offer “The Blue Dog Bug” (lot 859) in our holiday auction – Saturday, Dec. 7 and Sunday, Dec. 8 – just in time for holiday wish lists.

This one-of-a-kind, hand-painted car by iconic Louisiana artist George Rodrigue was a special commission through Neiman Marcus as one of its famed fantasy Christmas gifts in 2000. As I admired “The Blue Dog Bug” on the auction floor, the glow of the memories warmed me. Here, right in front of me, was an actual Neiman Marcus Christmas Book fantasy gift brought to gleaming, beautiful life.

Without question, we are all dyed-in-the-(blue)-wool Rodrigue enthusiasts at NOAG, so we are also honored to offer “God Bless America,” the original painting created by Rodrigue after the tragic 9/11 terrorism attacks. This iconic work was made even more popular in its print edition, which raised $500,000 for the related American Red Cross recovery efforts. It’s truly a piece of cherished American history.

Also being offered is a special collection of art glass, including works by Dale Chihuly and Lino Tagliapietra, a dazzling selection of jewelry, important pieces of American furniture from the estate of Donald J. Hurst and so much more.

So grab a cup of something warm, snuggle in and start a wish list with NOAG’s very own holiday book. You can also take an in-person peek at our more than 1,000 lots by joining us for NOAG’s annual holiday celebration and auction preview, Thursday, Dec. 5, from 5 to 7 p.m., featuring traditional holiday fare and festive cocktails.

From the entire NOAG family to yours, we wish you the happiest of holidays and a New Year filled with joy. And wherever you are and whatever you do, make sure to dream big!

The Estate of Donald J. Hurst Waterloo, Iowa

Donald J. Hurst, a loving father and self-made businessman, was born July 11, 1929 and raised on a farm south of Waterloo, Iowa. As with many families living in the Midwest during the Great Depression, Don faced immense challenges and financial hardship. He recalled his family living in the barn, even in the dead of winter with sub-zero temperatures, so they could rent the main house in order to survive financially.

Don also recalled walking along the railroad tracks with his brothers to pick up coal that fell off the trains for the family to burn.

Iowa. He and an assistant were plumbing over 500 houses a year. His business expanded to include outside excavation work – putting sewer and water services into the houses – as well as the interior plumbing.

Donald Hurst’s humble beginnings fueled his desire to succeed in life. As a young man, he worked on the railroad section crew laying tracks by hand, hard physical labor that required swinging a sledgehammer all day. After a couple of years working on the railroad, he took a job working for a local gas company digging ditches by hand to install gas services.

He and his identical twin brother, Richard, were such efficient workers that they never got promoted up the ranks.

Donald and Gloria raised four children together and shared a passion for collecting antiques, traveling together to search for one-of-a-kind pieces. He had a tremendous love and appreciation for the beauty and craftsmanship of the antiques in his collection. In particular, his passion for collecting Belter furniture made him well known and respected among dealers and collectors alike.

After meeting his wife, Gloria Keough, and having two children, he started his own plumbing business in Waterloo,

Hurst’s business eventually began doing major state and municipal utility contracts and even worked as far as the east coast of Maryland, where his company installed an entire new underground steam system on Andrews Air Force Base, including the hangars for Air Force One.

New Orleans Auction Galleries is honored to offer important American furniture and decorative arts from the Estate of Donald J. Hurst.

Hamilton, a protege of John Ruskin, was a celebrated landscape artist of the New York hinterlands and the pioneering West. In an 1873 expedition to Colorado, Hamilton created forty-seven landscape paintings for the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia before embarking on a six-year sojourn to Brittany where he painted en plein air alongside Barbizon School painters. Hamilton was also an accomplished portraitist and genre painter, preferring these mediums after he married and settled in the 1890s in Norwalk, Connecticut with wife and twin daughters, Helen and Marguerite, both of whom served as young models to their father and later became artists of merit.

This fine portrait of Helen reading exemplifies Hamilton’s keen ability to combine portraiture and domestic quietude in the wake of bourgeois ennui.

Framed.

13-7/8” x 10-7/8”, framed 20-3/4” x 17-1/2” $2,000-$4,000 259

Georges Lapchine (born Georgii Aleksandrovich Lapshin) was a gifted landscape/still life painter, who perfected the lighting and palette of the Post Impressionist-style. His street/ monument scenes are as prolific as his rural landscapes and floral still-lifes; all employ his characteristic rich texture rendered through impastos of color - ochre, ivory, sienna, phthalo and ultramarine blues loosely applied with broad brushwork and palette knife. Originally from Russia, Lapchine first studied in Moscow in the Art School of Stroganov and in France in F. Kormon’s studio, before permanently moving to Paris in 1924. Lapchine exhibited annually from 1925 to 1940 in the prestigious Salon des Independents, and held numerous other exhibitions and engagements, including the Societe des Artistes Francais, the Great Exhibition of Russian Art and Turgenev’s artistic community.

The Notre Dame Cathedral, an architectural chef d’oeuvre of Paris and Christendom, was equally mastered by the virtuoso of Lapchine. He painted the Cathedral in a handful of small ~8” x 10” studies, each time capturing a different angle and light of the edifice on the Ile de la Cite. The painting offered here is not only the largest and most complete painting by Lapchine of the Notre Dame to be offered at auction (according to Artnet and Artprice), but it also depicts one of the most famous angles of the West facade from the Petit Pont.

29” x 20”, framed 39-1/2” x 30-1/2” $8,000-$12,000 Often referred to as the American Degas, Louis Kronberg was a prominent early 20th-century artist, best known for his depictions of the performing arts, particularly dancers in fine pastels. A native of Boston, he first studied at the Boston Museum School under Edmund C. Tarbell and Frank Weston, but his work is more directly influenced by the French Impressionists he was exposed to in Paris while studying at the Academie Julian (1894-1896) under Raphael Collin and Benjamin Constant as a Longfellow Traveling Scholar.

Kronberg was immediately attracted to the movement and composition of Collin’s Asian beauties and use of Japanese woodblocks, Edgar Degas’ use of the pastel medium and Whistler’s palette-symphonies of color. Kronberg’s ability to synthesize these influences into a distinct style that captured the depth of surface texture, the figures’ skin, and movement through the building up of layers of pastel or impasto

110

attracted much recognition; he received the Chevalier Legion d’Honneur in 1951, was a member of the Boston Art Club, National Academy of Design and Salon des Beaux Arts in Paris. His work was greatly supported by Isabella Stewart Gardner, who purchased numerous works by the artist and retained his services as an art consultant/ Parisian buyer for the museum.

The two works offered here represent Kronberg’s talent for capturing depth and movement - both paintings were executed numerous times through various poses - the dark dancer in green with pale skin closely resembles the celebrated dancer Tamara Gross, and the female nude in repose, seen from the back seated on the couch, was painted at least four times between 1936-1942.

350 Charles Hermans (Belgian, 1839-1924) “At Dawn” oil on canvas signed lower left.

Framed.

60-1/2” x 68”, framed 70-1/2” x 78-1/4” Provenance: Sotheby’s, London, November 21, 1989, lot 67; Kurt E. Schon, Ltd. Gallery, New Orleans, Louisiana. $75,000-$125,000

132

The parent painting to this composition debuted at the Brussels Salon in 1875 and the Paris Salon of 1876 to much acclaim and consternation, and catapulted Hermans’ career in the art scene as a painter of theater and masquerade balls.

The original painting, now conserved at the Musees Royaux des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, includes a figural group to the left comprised of factory workers headed to work at dawn when they encounter the bonvivants - notably the debauched nobleman with women of ill-repute (high-class prostitutes redolent of Zola’s Nana). At the time, the painting was praised for its scathing social critique rendered in the large-scale landscape format reserved for important historical paintings.

Numerous reviews also read “race” into class division, claiming that the fair complexion of the proletarian represented the Flemish/Germanic right; whereas the swarthy partygoers represented the debauched Latin/Gallic left. Regardless of interpretation, the composition was a sensational tourde-force of French/Belgian Realism in league with other prominent French Realist scenes of theater loges and cafes

by Manet, Renoir and Degas, and produced numerous more interpretation of this fin-de-siecle theme, including this period copy, in which the proletariat are omitted from the scene, leaving just the revelers leaving the bal masque at dawn.

Sotheby’s 1989 catalogue entry speculates that this copy by the artist was apparently commissioned by the central male figure, whom they do not name, who is not named in the Salon reviews, but who does indeed bear a striking resemblance to the artist himself.

469 Peter Caledon Cameron (British, 1852-1934) “Niagara Falls in Winter”, 1885 oil on canvas signed and dated lower left.

Framed.

11-3/4” x 29-3/4”, framed 21” x 38” Provenance: Hulbert Harrington (H. H.) Warner, Rochester, New York, 1885, purchased from the artist; Sotheby’s, New York, May 19, 2004, lot 64.

Literature: When the painting sold at Sotheby’s in 2004, it was accompanied by a transcription of correspondence between the artist and his patron E. H. Thompson. $8,000-$12,000

Peter Caledon Cameron, an eccentric perfectionist known for fastidious detail, eerie photo realist lighting, and lengthy records detailing the topographical and meteorological conditions under which he worked, has been overlooked by history. He was registered by the British government as a certified art master in South Kensington before coming to the U.S. in 1883-1884, where he obliterated all obscurity through the sensationalism of his epic painting, the “Niagara Falls in Winter” - whereby he had himself suspended by tackle over the Falls so that he might be able to make his studies in mid-air, in near zero weather. In December of 1884, Cameron’s 9 by 18 foot masterpiece was unveiled and immediately purchased for an extraordinary $30,000 by Hulbert Harrington (H. H.) Warner of Rochester, New York and founder of Warner Observatory.

Following the sale, the painting was widely exhibited throughout Rochester and Detroit before it was sent to Europe.

In 1887, the painting came to an untimely demise and was destroyed by fire after its exposition at the Crystal Palace in London. At/or shortly after the colossal painting made its debut, this much smaller panoramic-sized painting/study of the Falls, dated 1885, was painted and also purchased by H. H. Warner. The New York Times recorded its sale on January 9, 1885, for $3,000, and Mensing and Stetcher printers produced a lithograph of it for Warner. In addition to this lot, two other paintings of “Niagara Falls in Winter” were made by Cameron: an even larger replacement copy for the one that burned in 1887 that measured 10 by 21 feet (completed in 1890), and the larger companion work to this one that sold at Sotheby’s in 2016 and is inscribed “Niagara Falls in Winter/Began Feb 10th 1884/Finished Nov. 1 1884/First two months on the spot.”

Chelminski and van Boskerck were accomplished artists; the former specialized in Napoleonic military/war scenes, the latter in landscapes. This stunning chef d’oeuvre of military equestrian prowess in a sylvan winterscape captures the virtuoso and best of both artists and exemplifies the Sherwood Studio co-op that engendered this collaborative. In 1883 Sherwood Studios opened its doors as an in-residence living quarters and studios for artists and their families at 58 West 57th Street. The forty-five apartments were the first of their kind, on such a large scale, to foster an artist community of whom both Chelminski and Boskerck were long-term residents, routinely exhibiting together in the first floor reception galleries. This work was likely commissioned by another Sherwood resident or by a fellow Boskerck patron as the collaboration produced a much more in-depth landscape of paper birch trees and brush surrounding the cavalry officer.

A historian and art-historian, the self-trained sculptor Bjorn Skaarup is the creator of a whimsical bestiary which references everything from classical mythology, Renaissance art, and contemporary culture. Drawing upon his extensive academic background - he has a Master’s from the University of Copenhagen and a Doctorate from the European University Institute in Florence, as well as post-doctoral studies at the Warburg Institute and Columbia University - his works cleverly revel in their layers of interpretation. As the artist once said in a New York Times Style Magazine interview “I’ve always imagined my works to be some sort of imaginary collaboration between the old Cellini and a young Disney”.

The two works offered here exemplify the artists distinct approach - each can be appreciated from a purely visual perspective, but a closer examination reveals allusions to the historical, literary and cultural.

The determined ostrich - one of the few flightless birds - is here depicted as a sprightly aviator with biplane wings and wearing a jaunty cap.

A more perceptive viewer of the elephant sculpture will notice the self-satisfied expression and bloated belly of the recently sated tiger, feet resting on the helmet of the explorer who was most decidedly the main course of his last meal!

Skaarup’s sculptures are in numerous private and public collections, including the National Cathedral, Washington D.C.; Koldinghas Museum, Denmark; Museo Cenacolo di Ognissanti, Florence; and the Hotel Cipriani, Venice. A retrospective solo exhibition of his work was held in 2016 at the Bruce Museum, Greenwich, Connecticut.

With a tiered wooden support for hanging.

45-3/8” x 48”, support 7-1/2” x 63” Provenance: Private collection, Houston, Texas; Moody Gallery, Houston, Texas.

Exhibited: The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, 2/22/04-5/23/04.

The collaboration between Ed Hill and Suzanne Bloom, which began as a creative experiment in 1974 and has endured these past four decades, culminated in a major retrospective of their work at the National Center of Photography in New York, 2002; this was followed by a 2004 exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.

Elegy in C, a multi-media work, included in the retrospective, explores complex relationships between natural and manmade realities. Nature is a main protagonist in this as in many of the duo’s works created during the 1990s, focusing on the tension between real vs. virtual; nature vs. culture.

Matted, glazed and framed. photo 30” x 30”, framed 31-1/2” x 31-1/2” $1,000-$1,500 From 1964-1971, David Kopay played as a running back for the San Francisco 49ers, Washington Redskins, New Orleans Saints and Detroit Lions. Three years after he retired in 1972, Kopay became the first NFL player to publicly come out as gay, challenging stereotypes of masculinity in professional sports that stymied his future coaching positions on college and national football leagues. In 1977, Kopay wrote an autobiography on his experience in coming to terms with his sexual orientation that instantly became a New York Times national best-seller, inspiring younger generations of homosexual, bi and transgender young men and women.

While playing for the New Orleans Saints in 1971, Kopay befriended George Dureau, who took a series of nude studies/photographs of the football player. After Kopay came out, a limited edition of twenty-five 14” x 14” silver gelatin prints, signed by both Kopay and Dureau, were released. The color negatives were later printed in the much larger format seen here and signed by Dureau

“Untitled”, 1991 blown glass basket-form vessel, stripes of bold red and green, yellow and black, incised signature and date at interior edge. h. 9”, w. 15”, d. 8” $5,000-$8,000 "Glass is a wonderful material....Because the glass is alive.

Even when it is cool, it is still moving. It is connected with fire, it is connected with water, it is so natural. Glass is my life."

—Lino Tagliapietra One of the most accomplished glass artists working today, Lino Tagliapietra was an apprentice (garzonetto) in the Murano glass-blowing studio of Archimede Seguso (19091999) at the age of 11. Initially serving as an assistant to the various artisans, he was slowly introduced to the myriad techniques of glasswork. By the extraordinarily young age of 21, he was honored with the title of maestro.

Inspired not only by the rich, centuries old, history of Murano, but also by the contemporary artists that he saw at the Venice Biennales, especially Mark Rothko and Ellsworth Kelly, Tagliapietra began a life-long fascination with the relationship of shape and color. His works, as evidenced by the piece offered here, are explorations of the correlation of color and form, and how the deft join of the two creates a suggestion of movement and vitality. To maintain complete control, and to ensure the highest quality, he creates all of his own colors - one of the few glass artists to do so.

294

In 1979, Talgliapietra travelled to the Pilchuck Glass School in Seattle, Washington, to share with the students the until then carefully guarded Murano glass techniques such as buttato, filigrano and incalmo. It was there that he was exposed to the techniques of caning and carving and where he began his decades long association with the glass artist Dale Chihuly (in 1971, one of the founders of Pilchuck). Tagliepietra now splits his time between Murano and Seattle, with active studios in both cities.

At work, the maestro appears to be engaged in an elegant dance with the glass, blowing and twisting the harsh, unforgiving material into the seemingly impossible complex, yet delicate forms for which he is so rightfully acclaimed.

His works are conserved in virtually every major museum and collection including; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Tokyo National Modern Art Museum, Musee des Arts Decoratifs (both Paris and Lausanne), Victoria and Albert Museum, and the Corning Museum of Art. In 2004, there was a retrospective exhibition that travelled across the United States, and in 2018 a major show was held in Shanghai, China.

51” x 144”

$5,000-$8,000

Provenance: Private collection, Houston, Texas. $7,000-$10,000 “Chronologically arranged narrative progression, with each episode sharing a cockeyed similarity to our own personal episodes experienced during the madness of exercising our lives spent here on earth. If the paintings were to be reunited, brought together and presented one following the other in the sequence in which they were conceived, the effect would be that of a visual novel, a soap opera consisting of snapshots assembled into “chapters””.

--Donald Roller Wilson As this statement taken from Wilson’s website clearly demonstrates, seriality and repetition are innate to the ontology of the artist, whose paintings are “snapshot” flashes of madness (or genius) in a much broader verse of being “the party going on inside my [his] head!”. Decades before monkeys abounded in the abyss of kitsch, the mundane, the repetitive every day, was explored at length by Wilson: in this work, steaming dungarees on a wash line; in others, smoking matchsticks, cigarettes, slices of watermelon are captured in striking verisimilitude and recorded with the exact timing of their insignificance - for example, Sunday. September 25.

7:46 PM. As this work illustrates, even in 1977, Wilson was challenging the boundaries of fine art; not only are the line of jeans notated as an event of historic importance, but the composition, medium and shaped support further tests the painted picture plane with the trompe-l’oeil stage curtains tempting viewers to enter the amphitheater of the artist’s mind and experience the acts.

"On the night of September 11, 2001, like Americans everywhere, I sat in shock over the events of the day. As I’ve done many times in my life, I turned to my easel and painted for comfort… the next morning I stared with my wife at the painting I’d just finished. As we looked from each other to the canvas, we knew that I’d made a powerful and accurate statement of our feelings… I realized as we spoke that in donating the sales from a print of this painting to the relief effort, others might be comforted as they dealt with their own grief and desire to help.

Created in the depths of my personal sadness, the painting reflects the feelings of many, many people… I first thought to paint the dog black, as if in mourning. Instead I painted it without color at all, the blue joy drained by shock and grief…

For many years the dog has had yellow, happy eyes. On this day, however, the eyes are red, indicating a heavy heart.”

—George Rodrigue September 12, 2001 The work offered here is the original painting created by George Rodrigue over the course of that emotionally turbulent evening, and was the prototype for the popular print edition, which ultimately raised $500,000 for the American Red Cross.

The "Blue Dog Bug" by George Rodrigue is an exceptional, one-of-a-kind, hand-painted car, which was a special commission through exclusive retailer Neiman Marcus for their InCircle program.

According to Jacques Rodrigue, the artist's son, "George Rodrigue rarely lent his artwork for objects and this makes the Blue Dog Bug extremely rare and unique. He and Neiman Marcus partnered on several national promotions during the 1990s and the Blue Dog Bug demonstrates the creativity that the two enjoyed while working together."

George Rodrigue began his nearly decade-long collaboration with the prestigious retailer in 1996, when he was commissioned to create the cover of their men's catalogue – the single requirement being that the artist incorporate the retailer's butterfly symbol into the image. The resulting painting, "Butterflies are Free" was such a resounding success, that Rodrigue returned in 1998 with "Hawaiian Blues", and in 1999 with "The Millennium”. 1999 was also the year that the artist painted three fiberglass cows as part of the citywide Chicago Cow Parade charity fundraiser.

Neiman Marcus established the InCircle program to reward the most loyal shoppers. The InCircle program has 20 tiers with a top tier of five million points. Over the years, the top rewards have included exclusive trips, experiences and cars.

In 2000, Neiman's InCircle top tier program included the "Blue Dog Bug". The present owners, intrigued by this work, instantly contacted the retailer in regards to their eligibility; it was the impetus not only for an impressive collection of works

by Rodrigue, but also the beginning of a personal relationship with the artist.

932 John Genin (French/New Orleans, 1830-1895) “Colonel John Lewis Bush (1820-1892)” oil on canvas signed lower left.

Period gilt frame.

51-1/2” x 34-1/2”, framed 65-1/4” x 48-1/4” Provenance: Descended in the family of the sitter, New Orleans, Louisiana. $8,000-$12,000

As described by his great granddaughter, “Modest and unobtrusive in manners, kind and genial is disposition, affable and courteous to all, Colonel Bush had many friends and no enemies. Universally popular, always seasoning his conversation with a spice of good humor.”

A prominent Louisiana statesman, lawyer, businessman and soldier, Bush was the progenitor of a family actively involved in Mardi Gras krewes of Rex, Comus and Twelfth Night Revelers. A descendant of the Warner Hall Lewis family of Virginia, John Lewis Bush was born in Iberville Parish and moved with his family to Lafourche Parish as a young child. Bush was appointed Clerk of the First District Court of Lafourche in 1846, admitted to the bar in 1854 and became a senior associate of several law firms. As a member of the State Legislature, he argued against Louisiana secession for the Union, but realizing his efforts were futile, signed the act of secession and “assumed the consequences of his action.” During the Civil War, Bush formed a company of Confederate soldiers known as the “Lafourche Creoles, 109 Strong”. He rose to the rank of Colonel, served on General Mouton’s staff, and was appointed president of a military court stationed in Shreveport.

After the war, Bush resumed in his legal career with the formation of the firm of Bush & Goode. Bush was actively involved in business endeavors, served as President of the National Cotton Exchange, was instrumental in the founding of the New Orleans Board of Trade, and re-elected to the State Legislature where he became Speaker of the House. As a benefactor, Bush established the Louis Bush Medal in 1882, which is awarded to this day to a student who demonstrates excellence in the French language and culture at the University of Louisiana (today Tulane University).

932

Colonel Bush married Celeste Gresham of Lafourche Parish and had two sons, Reuben Gresham Bush and Harry Garland Bush, and two daughters Susan Karr Bush and Josephine Gresham Bush. Josephine and her husband Charles Janvier had eight children, and Charles reigned as Rex in 1896. Their daughters Celeste Janvier reigned as Queen of Comus in 1906 and Lois Janvier reigned as Queen of Rex in 1912. Susan and her husband C. B. Maginnis’ daughter married Arthur Burton LaCour, who wrote the highly regarded book on the history of Mardi Gras entitled New Orleans Masquerade: Chronicles of Carnival and was an active member of Twelfth Night Revelers.

At his death in 1892, Colonel Bush’s distinguished portrait by John Genin was draped in black and hung at the New Orleans Board of Trade. In the portrait, Bush’s hand rests on the book Rules of the House, alluding to his position as Speaker of the House. The artist John Genin was born in France and studied with the academic portraitist Leon Bonnat in Paris. Settling in New Orleans, Genin became an active participant of the local art community, a member of the Southern Art Union and one of the most successful portrait painters of the late 19th century in New Orleans. Throughout his career Genin made return trips to his native France, and consequently his work continued to show the influences of French academic painting.

960 Samuel M. Shaver (American/Tennessee, 1816-1878) “Portrait of Joseph Hardin Walker (1821-1866)”, ca. 1859 oil on canvas unsigned, a handwritten inscription identifying sitter en verso of stretcher.

Framed.

40” x 30”, framed 47” x 37” Literature: Caldwell, Jr., Benjamin H., Robert Hicks and Mark W. Scala, Art of Tennessee, Nashville: First Center of the Visual Arts, exhibition catalogue, 2003. $4,000-$7,000 The eldest child of Elizabeth Gallagher and Reuben Walker, Jr., Joseph Hardin Walker was born in Hardin Valley, Knox County, Tennessee on December 4, 1821. Walker studied at East Tennessee University, served as a trustee of the Deaf and Dumb School for many years, and appointed trustee of East Tennessee University in 1854. A successful merchant, he was the proprietor of Walker, O’Keefe & Co., “wholesale and retail dealers of dry goods, clothing, boots, shoes, etc.” in Knox County.

On his birthday in 1849, Walker married Dora Pearson Moses (1826-1910), the daughter of Mary Pearson and John Moses of Exeter, New Hampshire. Joseph Hardin and Dora Pearson Walker had three sons and one daughter, Edward Walton Walker (1850-1887), Mary E. (Lillian) Walker (1854-1938), Everett Maxwell Walker (1858-1859) and Frank Hardin Walker (1861-1905).

The Civil War divided the Walker family. “When the city was besieged by the northern army”, Dora took her three surviving children and returned north to Exeter, New Hampshire, while her husband’s Confederate sympathies kept him in Tennessee. Joseph Hardin Walker died in New York City shortly after the end of the Civil War. For more than twenty years, Samuel M. Shaver was among the leading portraitists working in antebellum Tennessee. Shaver was the son of David and Catherine Barringer Shaver of Sullivan County, Tennessee. In 1845, he married Mary Hannah Elizabeth Powell (1825-1856) in Robertsville, Tennessee and the couple had two children.

Prior to the Civil War, Shaver earned portrait commissions throughout Eastern Tennessee and taught at the Odd Fellows’ Female Institute in Rogersville, Tennessee in 1851.

When the Civil War broke out, as a supporter of the Confederacy, Shaver moved to Knoxville where he helped to found the East Tennessee Art Association and was commissioned to paint portraits of fifteen prominent Confederate leaders.

Framed.

40” x 30”, framed 47” x 37” $4,000-$7,000 Literature: Caldwell, Jr., Benjamin H., Robert Hicks and Mark W. Scala, Art of Tennessee, Nashville: First Center of the Visual Arts, exhibition catalogue, 2003.

Edward Walton Walker (1850-1887) was the oldest child of Dora Pearson Moses and Joseph Hardin Walker of Knox County, Tennessee. An avid sportsman, Edward is seated with his rifle across his lap and recent catch at this feet, set in the Eastern Tennessee landscape of his childhood. He became a realtor in Birmingham, Alabama and did not marry.

Little is known about the art training of the Tennessee portraitist Samuel M. Shaver. A talented artist, Shaver’s distinctive style of portraiture and appreciation of landscape of his native Tennessee were revealed in this handsome portrait of Edward.

962 Samuel M. Shaver (American/Tennessee, 1816-1878) “Portrait of Everett Maxwell Walker (1858-1859) and Mary E. (Lillian) Walker (1854-1938)”, ca. 1859 oil on canvas unsigned, handwritten inscription identifying sitters en verso of stretcher.

Framed.

40” x 30”, framed 47” x 37” Literature: Caldwell, Jr., Benjamin H., Robert Hicks and Mark W. Scala, Art of Tennessee, Nashville: First Center of the Visual Arts, exhibition catalogue, 2003. $5,000-$8,000 Everett Maxwell (1858-1859) and Mary E. (Lillian) Walker (1854-1894) were children of Dora Pearson Moses and Joseph Hardin Walker of Knox County, Tennessee. Mary E. (Lillian) married Rufus Phillips Williams (1851-1911) in 1894 and eventually moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts where her mother, Dora, had settled. Everett tragically passed away of pneumonia shortly after the group portrait of him and his sister was painted.

The Tennessee portrait artist Samuel M. Shaver favored the playful device of the child with one bare foot. In this portrait, Everett has taken off his sock and shoe for the duration of having his portrait painted. The children are seated outdoors amidst the Eastern Tennessee landscape.

(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.

Rev. 01/04/17

(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).

Rev. 01/04/17

(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 25% of the Hammer Price (discounted to 22% if the method of payment is by check, cash, or wire transfer [subject to a $30 fee for domestic wires and a $60 fee for international wires] by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction - note that there is no discount for LiveAuctioneers and Invaluable bidders) 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 antiterrorism 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.

Rev. 01/04/17

(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. By bidding at the Auction and/or through execution of the attached registration form, the Bidder consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Louisiana and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the Eastern District of Louisiana.
