Letter From the Director of Marketing
There’s no doubt about it – I have color on my mind. Perhaps it’s because I’ve just returned from a trip to the British Virgin Islands, where bright, saturated colors are everywhere, from the fish to the flowers. Or maybe it’s the shocking-pink crepe myrtle blooms, cascading like freeze-frame firecrackers in front of my house. Or it could be the intensity of the cloudless, blue skies that blaze blindingly between New Orleans’s afternoon thunderstorms. Regardless, my new craving for color fully came into focus when I recently read an old Architectural Digest story covering legendary fashion designer Marc Jacobs’s New York townhouse. The sophisticated interior of Jacobs’s West Village home is richly appointed with interesting objects, beautiful carpets and a casual pair of Diego Giacometti stools. But, what stood out the most to me, of course, was the striking bright-yellow Ellsworth Kelly painting, hanging over his custom mantel. I would expect to see bright colors in the home of someone who veers toward vibrant designs as Marc Jacobs, but what I love most about his use of color in that room is his restraint. In a world awash in so much gray and beige, it’s refreshing to see color so perfectly used to elevate an interior. The Kelly glows above the mantel like a rising sun and instantly draws you in, but at the same time, the bright yellow hue somehow feels at home amongst the room’s predominate earth tones. While his seemingly simplistic minimalist color block paintings and prints may seem devoid of natural influences, Kelly was highly inspired by the outdoors. From an early age, Kelly’s grandmother encouraged his exploration of nature by taking him birdwatching near his home in New Jersey and also introduced him to the work of naturalist John James Audubon. The variety of forms and colors through these experiences captivated Kelly, and many attribute this early interest to his fascination with color throughout his career.
Lot 737
Lot 138
It should come as no surprise that I was thrilled when a colorful collection of modern and contemporary art arrived at the gallery, especially a print by Ellsworth Kelly (Lot 737) featuring the same intense yellow I fell in love with while reading that AD piece. Another favorite in the sale is George Rodrigue’s “Our Love Blooms” (Lot 658) – the playful blue dog and bright flowers are sure to make you smile. Finally, while it may not be the most colorful, I absolutely love Lot 138, a charming silver cocktail shaker in the form of a dog. Our July Estates Auction, to be held on Saturday, July 27 and Sunday, July 28, has plenty of color, including modern and contemporary paintings and prints; fine jewelry, sparkling across the rainbow spectrum with sapphires, emeralds and rubies; to furniture dressed in elegant but bold patterns. I invite you to find that pop of color amongst our 900 lots to bring a bright, new inspiration to your life, too.
Taylor Eichenwald Director of Marketing & Public Relations P.S. Put on something colorful and join us on Thursday, July 25 from 4-6:00 p.m. for a preview reception, with complimentary wine and hors d’oeuvres!

The Estate of
Victor and Marie Cascio Monroe, Louisiana
Victor and Marie Cascio were beloved Monroe icons and restaurateurs. Victor, a local celebrity, was the face of famed Monroe restaurant The Chateau, a society columnist in The News-Star, television personality and supporter of the arts.
He invited numerous clubs and organizations to host events at the restaurant over the years, earning it a reputation as a local institution. Liberace even stopped by for a visit and let Victor’s mother try on all of his jewelry and, of course, his mink coat.
Victor and Marie loved to travel and collect interesting items along the way. Victor’s love for art and design, cultivated by good friend Speed Lamkin, was evident in every aspect of his life, from his clothing to his home and restaurant. Lamkin, a playwright and novelist, spent years living in New York and was an avid design enthusiast and collector. After moving back to Monroe, Lamkin hired Mark Hampton to help design his home, which was featured in Architectural Digest. Lamkin guided the Cascios as they amassed their own collection and sold or gifted items to them, some of which are offered in this sale.
Victor took pride in knowing his regular customers’ names, where they preferred to sit, what they liked to order and loved sharing his restaurant with all of them. In an interview, Victor said that, “The Chateau was my living room and the dining room was my stage on which to perform.” The feeling was mutual – the customers were extremely loyal and loved visiting with Victor.
Inspired by Victor and Marie’s travels, the restaurant was brilliantly decorated. In an article in The News-Star, Victor shared, “Once on a trip to Venice we walked into a favorite little restaurant of the locals and all of the booths were covered in vines; it was magical." He continued, “I took the idea for the ornaments from another trip to New York. If you take it all in, it’s ethereal and almost child-like. I wanted it to be enchanting.”
Josephine and Joe Cascio, Victor’s parents, opened the family’s first restaurant in 1943. The Chateau opened in 1964 and remained open until Victor’s retirement in 2012 after nearly 50 years serving the Monroe area. New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to offer fine art, antique furniture, decorative arts, silver and more from the Estate of Victor and Marie Cascio.
Marie with Anderson Cooper and Gloria Vanderbilt; Marie was introduced by a mutual friend, Speed Lamkin.

This beautiful painting ensconced in an impressive tabernacle frame exemplifies Grand Tour devotional work. Copied after High Renaissance masters, notably Raphael - the pupil of Perugino, these works were designed as personal altarpieces for wealthy tourists, combining the virtuoso of classical architecture with religious humanism. The post and lintel symmetry created through pilasters and scrollwork reflect the clarity of form and color achieved through unione - the soft modeling of rich colors harmonized by the blend of the gold leaf into the golden hue of Madonna’s skin. According to the Uffizi Gallery, where the original painting is conserved, this work was commissioned by the widow and son of the Venetian merchant Giovanni Martini for the newly restored chapel of the convent of San Domenico in Fiesole. The figure of Madonna was modeled by the artist’s wife Chiara, the daughter of the architect Luca Fancelli. Purchased in 1786 by Peter Leopold, Grand Duke of Tuscany, for the Uffizi Gallery, which he opened to the public in 1769, Perugino’s painting would have been widely visible near the turn of the 18th/19th century, inspiring additional studies, commissions and copies.

340 Circle of Francois Pascal Simon Gerard (French, 1770‑1837) “Napoleon I, in Imperial Costume” oil on canvas unsigned. Framed. 93‑1/4” x 61”, framed 101‑1/2” x 69‑5/8” Provenance: By repute, acquired from a French consulate in Parma, Italy; Charlotte Nail Interiors, Houston, Texas, 2006; Sold in these rooms, March 29, 2008, lot 595; Private collection, Houston, Texas. $10,000‑$15,000
This composition of Napoleon I standing in imperial costume closely resembles a near identical 1805 composition by Jacques-Louis David that Napoleon rejected as he deemed it not flattering enough. David, thereafter, abandoned the work, which is only known by a smaller sketch conserved at the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Lille, France. Another version, now lost, was commissioned for Napoleon’s brother Jerome, King of Westphalia. The Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University has an incomplete copy of it. Gerard’s rendition, now in the Palace of Versailles, features a more colossal Napoleon, who directly engages the viewer and dominates the majority of the picture plane; of this work, there are at least three known period copies from the circle/workshop of Gerard. One has been on loan since 1922 to Rijksmuseum; another sold at auction in 2014 through Leslie Hindman from the Ann Stone Trust, and this copy, which is reputed to have come from a French consulate in Parma, Italy, and sold here in 2008.

Provenance: Private collection, Houston, Texas. $1,200‑$1,800 The Rev. John Wood of Swanwick Hall, Derbyshire was born on November 25, 1776, the son and heir of Hugh Wood and his second wife, Mary Peake. He was educated at Cambridge (B.A., 1799, M.A. 1802) and ordained as an Anglican priest in 1801. His first appointment was in his native Derbyshire as curate at Pinxton (1799‑1801), and later Mugginton (1801‑1808). It was at this last appointment that he married, on September 22, 1803, Emilia Susanna Bellairs of Stamford. In 1808 he was made Rector of Kingsley, Staffordshire which he would remain for nearly 40 years. Added to his duties in 1818 was the vicarage of Pentrich, Derbyshire, which included the town of Ripley where his brother Robert (1781‑1858) lived. There was no church in Ripley at the time, but All Saint’s Church was dedicated there in July 1821, as a “Chapel of Ease” under St. Matthew’s in Pentrich. Given the date, it is likely that this handsome pair of presentation coolers was connected to beginnings of All Saints Ripley. The Reverend Wood would remain in his positions as rector and vicar until his retirement in 1855; he died on October 28, 1858.

He studied at St. John’s Cambridge and was ordained a deacon in 1832 and a priest on November 10, 1833. He served as Curate of Malpas, Cheshire and Hodnet, Shropshire from 1832 until 1838; it was evidently the end of his curacy in Hodnet that was the occasion of this handsome gift from his parishioners. He was next made Vicar of Chebsey, Staffordshire, which position he held until his death on October 20, 1895.

Framed. 58‑1/2” x 43‑1/2”, framed 64‑1/4” x 49‑1/4” Provenance: The Estate of Albert A. Prats, Jr., New Orleans, Louisiana. Exhibited: Paris Salon of 1878, no. 696. $5,000‑$8,000 Francois-Alfred Delobbe, a pupil of Thomas Couture and William Bouguereau, was a talented naturalist artist, who excelled in history and daily life genre paintings, exhibiting annually at the Paris Salon since his debut in 1861. Delobbe, like Jules Breton and Bastion-Lepage, was best known for his beautiful, somewhat idealized depictions of peasantry - capturing harvesters, fishermen, shepherdesses, washwomen and children at play in tattered rags with an aggrandized, classical beauty that are academically drawn and softly lit through diffuse and reverse lighting. A great deal of Delobbe’s inspiration and models came from Concarneau - a rural fishing port and artist colony in Brittany, France, that the artist regularly visited from 1875 until his death. In addition to coastal waters, Concarneau boasts many fresh water inlets and estuaries off the Pont-Aven that are also ideal for crawfish, and may have served as the locale and inspiration for this fine depiction of children fishing for crawfish. 430

The land may be under water, but the spirit of New Orleans and the culture of Louisiana hold their heads high. "We Will Rise Again" shows the American flag covered with water. The blue dog is partly submerged, and its eyes, normally yellow, are red with a broken heart. Like a ship’s SOS, the red cross on the dog’s chest calls out for help.” —George Rodrigue, 2005
This powerful image is both George Rodrigue's heartfelt reaction to the devastation wrought on his beloved Gulf Coast by Hurricane Katrina, and his acknowledgement of the region's determination to recover. When Rodrigue first conceived of the image, he had the challenge of creating it without access to his studio. He struggled to replicate the intricacies of the water and avoid a “marble-type effect,” as his wife Wendy describes on her blog. George ultimately photographed a friend's swimming pool, printed it on canvas and then painted the flag and blue dog. When this painting was reproduced as an open edition print, it raised over $700,000 for the Louisiana Chapter of the American Red Cross. Later editions and versions raised even more funds for the recovery of the region, a testament not only to the generosity of the people, but also to the popularity of this iconic blue dog with the soulful eyes. The work offered here is one of only two paintings on canvas of this specific image.

“Hurricane Georges,” 2002
“My Golden Jolie Blonde”, 1987
acrylic on canvas signed, titled and dated en verso. Unframed. 36” x 82”
oil on canvas signed lower right, signed, dated, titled and inscribed “To Betty Richardson, Nov 24, 1987” en verso. Framed. 30” x 24”, framed 38” x 32”
$20,000‑$40,000 The Hurricane series, inspired by the artist’s first-hand experience of the power and potential destruction of nature, was begun in 2002. In these highly stylized, abstract renderings, Rodrigue employed a loose brushstroke to cover the canvas in bold, bright swathes of swirling color. The viewer’s eye is inevitably drawn into the center of this turbulent maelstrom, creating an almost visceral emotional response. Each work in this series has the name of an actual storm - the painting offered here refers to the 1998 hurricane which ravaged the region.
Provenance: George Rodrigue Gallery, Lafayette, Louisiana; Private collection Baton Rouge, Louisiana; thence by descent. Exhibited: Rodrigue Studio, New Orleans, Louisiana, 2018 Rodrigue's Heartland: Under the Oaks and Out of the Swamp $20,000‑$40,000 "Jolie blonde, regardez donc quoi t’as fait, Tu m’as quitte pour t’en aller, Pour T’en aller avec un autre, oui, que moi, Quel espoir et quel avenir, mais, moi, je vais avoir?" —Amadie Breaux, 1928 Jolie Blonde (vernacularly Jole Blon) is a traditional Cajun ballad of uncertain origin and of various versions. The first known recording dates from 1928, but some variation of the song existed long before that. It is a nostalgic recounting of a false love, the singer lamenting the loss of his lovely goldenhaired sweetheart. Jolie Blonde was a recurring figure in Rodrigue’s art; she was never meant to represent a specific person, but rather to serve as an idealized symbol of feminine beauty. As seen in the painting presented here, she is usually depicted in a wide-brimmed sun hat and filmy white dress, often set against the lush Cajun landscape.

679 John Thomas Biggers (American/Texas, 1924‑2001) “Old Spanish Trail Market, Houston, Texas”, 1970 graphite on paper signed, titled, dated and inscribed lower right to the family of his friend and fellow artist Jean-Paul Hubbard. Unframed. 21‑7/8” x 26” Provenance: Gifted by the artist to the Hubbard family, thence by descent. $2,000‑$4,000 One of the most significant African-American artists of the 20th century, John Thomas Biggers was born the youngest of seven children to a family that stressed the importance of education, creativity and spirituality. Growing up in the tight-knit black community of Gastonia, North Carolina, Biggers has stated that he had a relatively pleasant childhood, and that he was encouraged in his artistic and intellectual pursuits. Biggers enrolled in Hampton Institute (now Hampton University) in Virginia, where he studied with Victor Lowenfeld, an Austrian who had fled Europe. Lowenfeld was one of the first to publicly acknowledge the artistic significance and influence of African culture on modern art, and he encouraged his students to eschew the artistic conventions of the time to pursue something that was more immediate, more personal to them and their heritage. For many of these students, this was the first validation of their particular experience from someone outside of the African-American community. In 1943, Biggers was included in the Young Negro Art exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. That same year, Biggers was drafted into the Navy, eventually becoming an illustrator. During this time, he began to refine his technique, working extensively in graphite and Conte crayon, employing a distinct hatching to create a sense of depth and volume. After his discharge from the Navy, Biggers attended Pennsylvania State University, receiving his Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in 1948; he would later receive his doctorate from that institution in 1954 for his Negro Women in American Life and Education. In 1949, Biggers accepted a position as Professor at Texas State College for Negros (now Texas Southern University), where he was instrumental in setting up the art department. His colleague and fellow artist Jean-Paul Hubbard, to whom this drawing is dedicated, was equally committed to the advancement of African-Americans in the arts.
Hubbard, a native of Berkeley, California, was an Associate Professor at Tennessee State University in Nashville and was chairman of the Central State College Art Department. He taught art and art history at Southern University in Baton Rouge for thirty years, and was eventually appointed as the Chairman of the Fine Arts Department. He held numerous exhibits throughout his career, including at Centenary College in Shreveport, Louisiana, Tuskegee Institute in Tuskegee Alabama, Alcorn College in Mississippi, the Baton Rouge Gallery, and the Masur Museum of Art in Monroe, Louisiana. As evidenced by the fine drawing presented here, Biggers captures a snapshot vignette of African-American women at the market creating both depth of space and character through a nuanced command of line quality: colossal in their matriarchal presence outlined against a white ground, each unique with a different handbag and accessories - including a tignon and (cross-hatched) seagrass basket hat that pay homage to Caribbean and Carolina roots - and each with a different dress print that riffs off the shapes of market, each forming a collective part of African-American culture in a market, situated in another historic cross-road of American culture - the Old Spanish Trail, which connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans from St. Augustine, Florida to San Diego, California.

Jules Olitski was born Jevel Demikovsky, March 27, 1922 in Snovsk, Russia, (now Ukraine) and immigrated to the United States in 1923 with his mother and grandmother settling in Brooklyn, New York. Olitski revealed an early interest in drawing, and eventually won a scholarship to study art at the prestigious Pratt Institute. He was also admitted to the National Academy of Design in New York and the Beaux Arts Institute in New York from 1940‑1942. Olitski was drafted into the army during WWII and soon after his discharge he went to Paris on the G.I. Bill where he studied at the Ossip Zadkine School and the Academia de la Grande Chaumiere. Europe introduced him to the modern, non-figurative masters and while there he went to some lengths to remove himself from the earlier academic training as a portrait painter. Returning to New York, he received a B.A., followed by an M.A. in Art Education, both from New York University. His first oneman show at the Zodiac Room of the Alexander Lolas Gallery in 1958 showed the artist’s coming of age, exhibiting muted, thickly impastoed paintings and rejecting his vibrant, energetic “Paris” work.
Over the following decades, Olitski continued to experiment with various mediums, textures and techniques. A prolific artist, continued to create, educate and exhibit until a few weeks before his death in 2007. He was considered a central figure in Color Field Painting, whose flat, one-dimensional pieces reviewers said, gave a sense of continuation beyond the borders of the paintings. In 1966, Olitski, Helen Frankenthaler, Roy Lichtenstein and Ellsworth Kelly were selected to represent the United States at the Venice Biennale contemporary art exhibition. “Lament of Absalom-8” is a wonderful example of the work of early 1970s, where he moved from spray paintings that made him famous earlier, into subtle palettes, combined with surfaces built by strong brushwork.

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.

758 758 American Classical Brass-Mounted Mahogany DropLeaf Table
A prominent Pennsylvania industrial family, the Siters owned tan yards and mills throughout Delaware County. Accounts of 1776, 1782 and 1788 list Adam Siter as primary owner by 1802, his name has disappeared from the records and is replaced variously by John, William and Edward Siter presumably his heirs. His daughter Eliza wed David Wilson, also an industrialist, in 1811; they had seven children.

$7,000‑$10,000 The present cylinder secretary shares characteristics of pieces from at least two noted Philadelphia cabinetmakers from the first half of the 19th century, the Irish immigrant Joseph M. Barry and the Frenchborn cabinetmaker Anthony Quervelle. The die-cut brass “boulle” inlay on the ebony pilasters flanking the upper doors on the present piece can be found on a Philadelphia fall-front secretary with bookcase wings in the collection of The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Accession Number: 1925‑76‑1. And a secretaire a’ abattant with the apparent same brass inlay is attributed to the Philadelphia cabinet shop of Joseph Barry and is illustrated in Boor, Philadelphia Empire Furniture, page 448. Barry was active in Philadelphia from 1794 until 1838, both as an independent cabinetmaker and in various partnerships. A number of the carved elements on this piece share similarities to elements in sketches in Anthony Quervelle’s sketch book and on pieces labeled or attributed to Quervelle including anthemion petals in Sketch 18 in Boor’s book. The small detailed rosettes and the small central crest carving are consistent with known Quervelle features that have been referred to as “micro-carving”. Quervelle was active in Philadelphia from the early 1820s to 1845. Reference: Boor, Philadelphia Empire Furniture, University Press of New England, 2006, pp. 71, 108 and 448.

775 Ludwig Huemer (1882‑1972) Modernist Sterling Silver Center Bowl mid-20th century, for Fisher Silversmiths, Jersey City, New Jersey, of hemispherical form with molded serpentine-scroll rim, raised above an openwork torus standard and “triglyph” banded foot, all with hammered finish. h. 5‑1/4”, dia. 10‑3/4”; 29.77 t. oz. $1,000‑$1,500
Ludwig Huemer was born on March 7, 1882 in Vienna, the son of Franz Huemer and Hannah Habinger, and presumably trained there as a silversmith. He first arrived in the United States on January 16, 1901, and was engaged with Towle Silversmiths in Newburyport, Massachusetts, before returning briefly to Austria. He came back to the United States in November 1905, and by 1908 was working in San Francisco. He was betrothed there to Gertrude L. Warnecke in December 1909, but his marriage was not to be; evidently after another visit to Vienna in 1910 he settled permanently in Newark, New Jersey, and ship’s passenger records show the arrival in New York in August 1911 of Josephine Zamzal (1890‑1931) of Austria, the fiancee of Frank Huemer. The couple were married on September 5, 1911 in Manhattan. Huemer was working for Tiffany & Co. by 1917, and maintained a relationship with them for the rest of his life. He is better remembered, though, for his long association with the M. Fred Hirsch (later Fisher) Silver Company of Jersey City, New Jersey, of which he was superintendent. His work included interpretations of popular patterns, including a pastiche of Tiffany’s rare “Indian” pattern, and his exceptional designs in Danish Modern taste, exemplified in the present lot. He had three children (his daughter Frances E. Huemer [1921‑2014], was a noted Rubens expert at the University of North Carolina) and he married two more times after the death of their mother in 1931: secondly in 1936 to Marie Rose O’Conner (1894‑1969) and lastly in 1971 to the woman to whom he had been betrothed in San Francisco sixty-two years earlier, Gertrude Loretta Warnecke (1889‑1983), then Mrs. Joseph S. Hutton. He died on March 3, 1972 in Newark and is buried in Hilltop Cemetery in Mendham, Morris county, New Jersey.

824 Eanger Irving Couse, N.A. (American/New Mexico, 1866‑1936) “By the Fireside” oil on canvas board signed lower left. Framed. 12” x 15‑1/2”, framed 21‑1/4” x 24‑3/4” Provenance: Private collection, Tucson, Arizona. $25,000‑$40,000 To be included in Virginia Couse Leavitt’s catalogue raisonne of the artist.
A native of a small farming town in Michigan, Eanger Couse revealed an early proclivity for art and as a child would visit the local Chippewa community, drawing the Native Americans as they went about their daily tasks. He attended the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the National Academy of Design before moving to Paris to study with William-Adolphe Bouguereau at the Academie Julian. Upon his return to the United States a decade later, his interest in Native American culture was renewed. He eventually moved to Taos, New Mexico, becoming a founding member and first president of the artist community there. An accomplished landscapist and portraitist, it was his interior domestic scenes of Native American life for which he was most acclaimed. These intimate scenes, as evidenced by the fine example here, are tightly and carefully composed, usually depicting a lone figure immersed in some mundane task. Employing a rich color palette of oranges, golds and umbers, evocative of the Southwest landscape, the scenes are infused in a soft golden glow. Couse exhibited widely during his lifetime. His studio is now a part of the Couse-Sharp Historic Site, listed on the National Registry of Historic Places.

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.

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.

(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.
