Welcome toJULY

Last month, I had the pleasure of experiencing the magic of the Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse in New York during its triumphant return after a three-year hiatus. The first thing I noticed about the historic Beaux Arts-style mansion selected for this year’s event was its opulent façade. The front door, flanked by two imposing columns and topped with a crest, provided a venerability that holds its weight among the city's towering skyscrapers.

As I basked in the presence of this architectural gem, known as one of the Upper West Side’s “Seven Beauties,” I couldn’t help but consider the context and intentionality with which it was built. Constructed between 1899 and 1902, the home’s dramatic Beaux Arts design – inclusive of striking ancient Roman and Greek architectural forms, opulent Baroque and Rococo details and grand scale – was meant to project stability, power and wealth.

As the world weathered World War I and the Great Depression, Beaux Arts design gave way to Art Deco, seeking to instill a calmness and signaling a new normal. Clean lines, marble and steel replaced flowery, over-the-top details, reflecting the new era’s focus on minimalism, modernity and progress.

One of the most important Italian architects of the early 20th century, Piero Portaluppi, exemplifies this stylistic shift. His designs are chic, geometric and layered with meaning. An unrealized 1920 design for a New York skyscraper that was to serve as the headquarters of a major corporation, shows a building towering above Beaux Arts skyscrapers from the turn of the century – the design serving as much as a corporate marketing piece as commentary on society’s shifting values.

Other cities, including New Orleans, followed suit, picking up speed with the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and constructing buildings in the Art Deco style. In 1933, the city opened its first airport, a state-of-the-art facility on a filledin area of Lake Pontchartrain. At the time of its opening, the Shushan Airport was the largest airport in the U.S. and was the first combined land and seaplane air terminal in the world.

An often-overlooked Art Deco masterpiece, the layered marble and ornate design motifs of the New Orleans Lakefront Airport, as it is now known, tell a story of adventure, progress and aspiration. Thanks to an extensive restoration, the historic terminal reopened in all of its original 1933 glory in September 2013. Ninety years after its monumental opening, the airport now offers travelers the opportunity to step back into 1930s New Orleans in elegant style. I encourage you to read more about the airport’s fascinating history in the pages that follow.

It may come as no surprise that our team selected the New Orleans Lakefront Airport as the backdrop for this catalogue to celebrate the beauty of progress, change and Art Deco elegance. Fittingly, our July 29-30 Estates Auction features the estate of

a lifelong pilot, aviation enthusiast and entrepreneur, David Oreck. Oreck’s business acumen and vision propelled him and his eponymous vacuum cleaner brand to a household name (and a beloved staple of many homes). Oreck’s fascination with adventure, innovation and utilitarian design can be seen in his diverse collection, which includes natural history specimens and aviation-inspired furniture.

We are also honored to offer fine art, furniture and more from Nancy Brown Negley, an artist, philanthropist and ardent supporter of historic preservation. The sale also features furniture and decorative arts from the estate of another avid collector, philanthropist and accomplished artist, Catherine Wentworth. Wentworth famously bequeathed her collection of French silver to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which continues to anchor the museum’s silver galleries today.

Additionally, we are thrilled to offer the New Orleans estate of Daniel A. Glaser, or “Dapper Dan” as he was affectionately called. From antiques to wine, Glaser had an appreciation for the finer things in life. His collection is no exception, including a selection of rare and early Lalique, mid-century and antique furniture, silver and more.

I invite you to join us at our gallery during our two-week exhibition, beginning Monday, July 17. The July 29-30 Estates Auction begins at 10 a.m. CST each day; bidding is available in-person, by phone, absentee and live online (in advance or during the auction) on our website, and on LiveAuctioneers and Invaluable.

We hope that in the pages that follow and through the nearly 800 lots offered in this sale, you feel yourself enraptured by design’s powerful storytelling.

See you at the auction,

A FLIGHT BACK in

Time

Art Deco Design Lives on at the New Orleans Lakefront Airport

The sounds of piston engines and propellers filled the sky. Stylishly dressed passengers walked directly to awaiting aircraft – a Lockheed Vega, Curtiss Condor or Douglas DC-3 airliner – with hardly a fence in their way. The terminal buzzed with excitement and with the chatter of those awaiting the arrival of their loved ones on rocking chairs sprawled throughout. Glasses clinked in celebration at the terminal’s restaurant and ballroom…

In 1933, just 30 years after the Wright Brothers’ famous first flight in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, New Orleans opened its first airport, a state-of-the-art facility on a filled-in area of Lake Pontchartrain. At the time of its opening, the Shushan Airport was the largest airport in the U.S. and was the first combined land and seaplane air terminal in the world.

A year after its opening, it hosted the 1934 Pan-American Air Races as part of its opening ceremonies and just a few years later would become one of Amelia Earhart’s last-known stops – her second during her 1937 attempt to fly around the world. “I’ve flown over your airport here numerous times, and it

looked so nice from the air that I decided to land and see how it looked from the ground,” she was reported having told the crowd of curious citizens and reporters who had assembled at the tarmac to catch a glimpse of the first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.

From its opening through 1946, the Shushan Airport was host to every airline serving New Orleans. Since then, the airport – twice renamed, New Orleans Airport in 1940 and New Orleans Lakefront in 1964 – has consistently remained one of the most active business and recreational airports in the country.

FIRST FLOOR TERMINAL, 1934 SECOND FLOOR GALLERY, 1934

A First of Its Kind

The Shushan Airport’s terminal was characterized by its unique and impressive Art Deco style, designed by the same team that built the Louisiana State Capitol in Baton Rouge. No details were spared, with rich yet subtle ornamentation throughout, all intentionally envisioned to highlight the symbols of both aviation and of the human ingenuity that made the endeavor possible.

In 1936, an extensive $250,000 beautification project funded by the Works Progress Administration (WPA) added additional landscaping, paving and the installation of a sculpture by Enrique Alférez. The Fountain of the Four Winds, featuring four nude sculptures, represents the nation’s recovery from the Great Depression.

Additionally, visitors walking into the airport during these early years would’ve also been greeted by eight distinctive murals. Designed by Spanish painter and sculptor, Xavier Gonzalez, a favorite of the New Deal-era agencies that commissioned artists to decorate public buildings, these 10-by-10-foot murals were arranged in a circular display around the terminal, positioned to coincide with the terrazzo compass inlaid in the center of the waiting area’s floor.

Nearby, at the Walnut Room, a bustling entertainment venue tucked within the terminal, visitors and awaiting passengers alike, delighted in dancing, dining and drinking – evoking the lively spirit of New Orleans in the late 1930s.

A Portal into the Past

Today, the historically restored Art Deco terminal building offers a one-of-a-kind portal into commercial aviation in both its infancy and, arguably, its finest.

To recapture the building’s beauty, craftsmen and artisans from around the country were hired to ensure that every detail mirrored its original appearance. Every aspect was painstakingly researched. From door frames and pay phone signs to frescos and marble and granite floors and walls, no diligence was spared in bringing back the airport’s original and distinctive 1930s allure.

"Few restored Art Deco airport terminals exist in the United States. The Shushan Airport terminal is by all indicators and its early completion date, possibly the oldest surviving Art Deco terminal in the nation restored to its true original grandeur. This restoration also reminds Louisiana citizens and visiting passengers of the vision of prosperity that inspired so many individuals to find strength on the road to recovery during one of our nation's darkest periods, the Great Depression."

September 2013

A New Era

In 1964, the airport, now named New Orleans Lakefront Airport, received a makeover (or, rather, under) that tragically covered up its 1933 Art Deco look. The building’s original façade was encased in a steel frame and white stucco, and its opulent interior was redesigned.

When Hurricane Katrina ravaged New Orleans in 2005, the airport was severely damaged. According to news reports, when FEMA saw what lay hidden beneath the now destroyed façade, they agreed to return the terminal building to its Art Deco design.

After an extensive $18-million historic restoration, what was once old became new again when the terminal reopened in September 2013 in all of its original 1933 glory. Ninety years after its monumental opening, the airport now offers travelers and visitors alike the opportunity to step back into the 1930s in a thoughtful and elegant style.

The original panels on the exterior of the building depict the story of man’s mastery of flight. Indoors, the main waiting room is a vast, light-filled two-story space, with a mezzanine balcony wrapped around the second floor. The walls are adorned with colorful marble, and the painted, coffered ceiling is enhanced with a band depicting 1930s-era airplane designs.

Colorful marble adorns the walls, while a painted coffered ceiling soars above. A frieze bands the space just below the ceiling and depicts 1930s-era design and construction of airplanes.

Most notably, seven of the original eight aviation murals by Gonzalez are proudly displayed in the terminal, and Alférez’s symbolic sculpture has also been restored. And of course, the iconic Walnut Room is welcoming back travelers and visitors for a bite, a drink or a private celebration.

Fittingly, a visit to New Orleans Lakefront transports visitors back in time while propelling them to new heights.

A special thanks to the team at New Orleans Lakefront Airport for allowing NOAG to capture the images featured in this catalogue in this inspiring Art Deco space. We could dream up no more fitting backdrop for our July Estates Auction than a snapshot of 1930s New Orleans.

the magic of

Lalique

“Lalique …revealed the beauty of glass as glass. His relief technique, with its adroitly selected design, gave full effect to rich material and rare craftsmanship…In a style which was altogether French.“

- Guillaume Janneau, "Modern Glass," 1931

The famed jeweler and glass designer, René Lalique had an almost instinctual talent for elevating seemingly mundane items, such as perfume bottles, vases and decanters, into undisputed works of art, deftly melding utility and beauty into a single, distinctive item. He was truly the embodiment of William Morris’s famous assertion to “Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be beautiful or believe to be useful.”

Lalique trained as a fine jeweler at the height of the Belle Époque, an artistically fecund period of opulence and exuberance, and was soon inspired by such diverse styles as Japonisme and the English Arts and Crafts Movement. Initially experimenting with the inclusion of glass elements in his jeweled necklaces and brooches, Lalique inevitably turned toward the design and production of the glass vessels for which he would soon become so well known. Employing virtually every known glass technique – blowing, molding, pressing, pâte de verre, cutting, opalescence and tinting – the resultant works were first representative of the Art Nouveau and, later, Art Deco movements that briskly swept across France and the world.

His preferred motifs were figural, natural and stylistically geometric, and his exceptional ability at rendering these in glass is evident in the fine selection of items offered here: the deft combination of the geometric Greek key with naturalistic birds and leafy vines picked out in sepia-patine of the “Gimpereaux” vases of lot 68; the classically composed “Lutteurs” vase with its base of hunched wrestlers in smoke-patine supporting the bulbous frosted glass bowl of lot 67; or the highly stylized “Rennes” vase with its ram antlers of aggressive swirls which almost obscure the delicately formed bodies of lot 66.

Lalique was artistically creative, technically trained and daringly inventive; his work has weathered the test of time.

AN AMERICAN PIONEER

The Estate of David I. Oreck New Orleans, Louisiana

Seemingly determined to take on the world from the very beginning, David I. Oreck, was once known as a small, red-headed boy with a propensity to get into fights with the bigger kids in his native Duluth, Minnesota. It would be his steadfastness and scrappiness that would ultimately cement Mr. Oreck’s legendary status as one of America’s most iconic entrepreneurs.

The founder of and spokesman for the Oreck Corporation, the renowned vacuum cleaner company, dropped out of his freshman year in college to join what was then the Army Air Corps. His experiences serving as a Boeing B-29 Superfortress navigator in the Pacific Ocean during World War II instilled in Mr. Oreck a deep sense of patriotism and pride, leading to his lifelong commitment to American-made products.

A lover of aviation, Mr. Oreck was an active pilot well into his 80s and built a significant collection of historically important aircraft, which included a Stinson Reliant SR 10J, a Waco WMF, an Aviat Husky Amphibian and an American Champion Decathlon, among others.

Yet, Mr. Oreck’s true passion was for storytelling and for capturing consumers’ minds, something for which he had a natural gift.

Following the war, Mr. Oreck joined General David Sarnoff in New York, honing his sales skills as a salesman for the then-exclusive distributor of RCA television and Whirlpool appliances. After 17 years, Mr. Oreck eventually took over as the CEO of the RCA distributorship for Louisiana and Mississippi, a role in which he created and led an array of distinct national marketing campaigns.

It was in 1963, when he was 40 years old, that Mr. Oreck cemented himself as a pioneer in the use of direct marketing when he founded Oreck Corporation, initially serving as the exclusive national distributor for Whirlpool-branded vacuum cleaners. His creative, strategic and compelling marketing strategies allowed direct mail and direct sales to be hugely successful.

But just as his direct marketing strategies defied the conventional approach of the time, Mr. Oreck also believed he could sell a radically different kind of vacuum cleaner. Steadfast in his belief that a quality vacuum cleaner could be both powerful and durable, yet lightweight, Mr. Oreck personally pitched his eight- pound Oreck vacuum on television commercials. By the time the Oreck Corporation was sold in 2003, the now iconic Oreck ▶

"I think in the final analysis, a measure of a man's worth in the relatively short life we have on this planet basically is what favorable impact you've had on others. When I think about it, in the Oreck Corp., we've had 1,400 employees, millions of people who use the product and swear by it, love it. I can't help but feel that makes me the proudest."

vacuum had become the premier high-performance floor-care product – an estimated 10 million of which have been sold!

Staying true to his natural storytelling talents, Mr. Oreck became a featured lecturer at more than 40 leading universities around the country, offering his insights on entrepreneurship and branding. He was also soulfully committed to educating younger generations about the U.S.'s role in World War II.

While it was business interests that first led Mr. Oreck to New Orleans, he fell in love with the South, where he split his time between the Crescent City and Poplarville, Mississippi. He was a generous contributor to the New Orleans community, including to The Jewish Federation of Greater New Orleans, the Isidore

LOT 14

Newman School and the National World War II Museum. He was also actively involved in real estate and purchased and operated the Security Center in downtown New Orleans, where Oreck Corporation’s corporate headquarters were also once based.

At his expansive 600-acre farm in Poplarville, which includes a hangar, runway, main house, guest house and stables, Mr. Oreck relished walking, cruising one of his two HarleyDavidson motorcycles and flying one of his pristinely maintained aircraft.

Mr. Oreck, along with his son Bruce, was also an avid collector of natural history specimens. Mr. Oreck made significant contributions and donated important examples to mineralogical institutions such as the Carnegie Museum of Natural History.

Mr. Oreck passed away in February 2023 at the age of 99. He is survived by his wife, Jan, his sons, Thomas and Bruce, seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

NOAG is honored to offer natural history specimens, fine art, aviation-inspired furniture and more from the succession of David I. Oreck.

A PASSIONATE PATRON OF THE ARTS

The Estate of Nancy Brown Negley Houston, Texas

An artist, philanthropist and ardent supporter of the arts, Nancy Brown Negley’s lifelong passion for historic preservation and for the arts left an indelible mark on communities throughout the world.

Nancy developed an appreciation for the arts and a commitment to giving back from a young age. She was born in 1927 to prominent Houstonians Alice Pratt and George R. Brown, whose construction company, Brown & Root Inc. became one of the

largest in the world and positioned him as an important civic and political leader. In 1951, George and his brother, Herman, would go on to found The Brown Foundation, focusing on arts and education.

In 1948, Nancy earned her Associate’s Degree from Pine Manor College in Newton, Mass. The following year, she married Alfred W. Negley, a prominent rancher and businessman. The couple moved to A.S. Gage Ranch in West Texas, where they raised their

three children. While ranching was far removed from her Houston childhood, Nancy loved horseback-riding and the cattle drives. With a capacious hunger for adventure, she enjoyed sport, wing shooting and flyfishing.

An avid traveler, Nancy spent much of her adult life in South Texas, Maine and the South of France. It was in France that she pursued her passion for art, focusing both on her own painting and on supporting other artists through the formation of an artist residency program.

After spending time at the American Academy in Rome and in Southern France, where she studied at the Lacoste School of the Arts, Nancy bought a home in Ménerbes, which overlooked a residence that Pablo Picasso had purchased for artist Dora Maar in 1944. After Ms. Maar passed away in 1997, Nancy purchased

and renovated the home, transforming it into a space for hosting one- to two-month residencies for mid-career arts and humanities professionals.

Since its opening, The Brown Foundation Fellows Program at the Dora Maar House has hosted more than 300 fellows from more than 25 countries, with partnership and support from the Museum of Fine Arts Houston. In 2011, Nancy was recognized by the French Government with the Legion of Honor, Chevalier, for her contributions to the South of France and for her support of artists.

In addition to her work at The Brown Foundation, where she served as Chair of the Board in 19841988 and 2005-2009, Nancy was involved with a variety of cultural organizations, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, American Academy in Rome, Dia Art Foundation, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, San Antonio Museum of Art, World Monuments Fund, Smithsonian Institution Archives of American Art, and the McNay Art Museum, to name just a few. She was also the first woman to serve as Vice Chairman of the Texas Democratic Party.

Nancy passed away peacefully in July 2022, leaving behind a legacy of philanthropy, enthusiasm, optimism and devout dedication.

New Orleans Auction Galleries is honored to offer fine art, furniture and more from the Estate of Nancy Brown Negley.

AN AMERICAN IN PARIS

The Estate of Catherine Denkmann Wentworth Paris, France & Santa Barbara, California

Subtlety, eloquence, gravitas, finesse, mastery and gracefulness have all been used to describe the prowess of Catherine D. Wentworth’s brush strokes. While she displayed a remarkable artistic ability from a young age, particularly in drawing and sketching, no one could have predicted she would cement herself as one of the world’s most acclaimed – and Paris’s most treasured – artists during the height of her fame in the 1920s.

Born in 1865 in Rock Island, Illinois, she was one of seven children of the influential Catherine Bloedel Denkmann and Frederick C.A. Denkmann, the president of Weyerhaeuser & Denkmann Company, considered to be the “lumber kings” of the time.

After graduating from Wellesley College and receiving her early training at the Art Institute of Chicago, Catherine moved to Europe to study with several artists, including Carl Marr in Munich and at Académie Julien in Paris, where she became the first woman to be awarded first prize in the school’s annual competition. In her later work, the great French painter William-Adolphe Bouguereau would remain one of her masters. Considered to be a direct and truthful artist, Catherine’s intimate works notably captured the unaffected gracefulness of feminine features ▶

“One appreciates the naturalness of her arrangement, the happy grace she achieves without resorting to tricks, in her feminine types, the quality of masculine gravity she attains without, however, any suggestion of stiffness.
We also call attention to the eloquent treatment of hands in all her canvases. This important side of portraiture testifies not only to her merits as an artist but to her keen sympathy and intelligence.”
LOT 400 BOOKLET FROM 1925 EXPOSITION AT HOTEL JEAN CHARPENTIER, PARIS

and just as poignantly depicted portraits of men – all works remarkable in the artist’s beautiful handling and eloquence of her subjects’ hands. Additionally, her subtle use of somber color, marvelous use of lighting and finesse in portraying the delicate lines of the human figure set Catherine apart as both a draftswoman and colorist.

The excellence of Catherine’s technique, the adherence to the masters’ sound tradition, the scope of her brush and the simple yet powerful depiction of her subjects quickly won her the unstinted commendation of critics on both sides of the Atlantic.

Despite having studios in both Paris and New York City, Catherine produced almost the entirety of her work in Paris. It was here that Catherine gained fervent recognition among the great colony of world artists that called the City of Lights home in the early 20th century.

In the words of one of France’s foremost art critics, M. Arséne Alexandre, “Catherine is one American whose painting all Paris respects.” Needless to say, she quickly became an adopted and highly respected Parisienne.

In 1925, Catherine held a highly celebrated exhibition at the famous galleries within the hotel Jean Charpentier,

displaying an impressive 32 portraits, 18 other paintings and 11 pieces of sculpture.

Her portrait of Léon Melchissédec, the great singer of France’s National Opera, was considered one of the finest and noblest of Catherine’s works and was eventually purchased by the French government to be hung in the museum at Clermont-Ferrand in central France, Melchissédec’s birthplace. Examples of the artist’s portraiture are also found in Muséum de Toulouse’s permanent collection.

Following the death of her husband of more than three decades, Edward S. Wentworth, an opera singer and son of a prominent Boston family, Catherine purchased an oceanside estate and resided in Santa Barbara. A member of the New York Society of Women Artists and an officer of Académie des Palms, Paris, Catherine continued to travel, nourishing her interest in painting and further exhibiting her work, including at the California Palace of the Legion of Honor, until her passing in 1948.

NOAG is honored to offer the Estate of Catherine D. Wentworth, including French furniture, silver, decorative arts and fine carpets.

A NEW ORLEANS GENTLEMAN

The Estate of Daniel A. Glaser New Orleans, Louisiana

With his perfectly coiffed hair, signature style (a sport coat for any occasion) and nicknames like “Dan the Man” and “Dapper Dan,” it’s no surprise that Daniel A. Glaser was known as a distinguished gentleman with an affinity for the finer things in life.

A lover of culinary experiences, wine and champagne, Dan enjoyed dining out every night. Among his treasured New Orleans restaurants was Clancy’s, which he visited every week for more than 30 years and where he was known to often order “one more glass.”

Dan was an avid traveler, heading to New York City every December and to Carmel-by-the-Sea in California every Fourth of July.

In fact, for his 50th birthday, he took five separate trips, one for every decade. Among his favorite cities were Boston, Charleston, Palm Beach, Washington, D.C., London, Paris, Lisbon and Madrid, collecting different mementos along the way.

Yet, despite traveling the world over, New Orleans remained Dan’s favorite place to be. He was an enthusiastic supporter of the New Orleans Opera, the New Orleans Ballet Theatre, Mardi Gras, the Jazz & Heritage Festival and Tulane’s Summer Lyric Theatre. As a devoted season ticket holder, he could also be found cheering on the New Orleans Saints and LSU Tigers.

Dan’s charming New Orleans home was a showcase of everything he loved, including Lalique crystal, silver, decorative objects and antique furniture, many of which

reflected his love for lions and griffins – each piece filled with a personal memory or story. A warm and welcoming host, he frequently hosted gatherings and relished sharing his newfound treasures with family and friends. Inarguably, however, his most prized possession was his family, including his son, daughter, sisters, brother, nieces, nephews and two granddogs, as well as his partner of more than 30 years, the late Dr. Stephen “Jerry” Scully, who he married in 2017. Together, they enjoyed traveling, antiquing and visiting museums.

A former Sergeant in the U.S. Air Force and a graduate of De La Salle High School, University of New Orleans and Tulane University, Daniel earned his Master of Social Work (MSW) degree and went on to become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, dedicating his career to helping others. For more than three decades, he lectured nationally on topics related to trauma-based disorders, behavioral addictions and other related topics.

Dan passed away in 2022 after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer, following what was a memorable family trip to Washington, D.C. with his daughter, son and ex-wife, with whom he maintained a close friendship. It seems fitting perhaps that some of his last memories were made in one of his favorite cities and among his most beloved.

NOAG is honored to present the Estate of Daniel A. Glaser, which includes a diverse selection of furniture, fine art and more.

$1,000-$1,500

Nahum Tschacbasov’s Russian Jewish family immigrated to America at the turn of the century. After working as a successful businessman, Tschacbasov turned his attention to art and moved to Paris in 1932 where he studied with Adolph Gottlieb and Fernand Leger. After returning to New York City, he exhibited in 1935 at Galerie Secession and along with Mark Rothko, Joseph Solman, and Adolph Gottlieb, forming a group identified as “The Ten,” who shared common intentions in their art of social consciousness with an expressionist and abstract style.

Tschacbasov exhibited at the Whitney Museum of Art, Museum of Modern Art and Art Institute of Chicago. In 1944, he had a one-man exhibition of his works at the Arts and Crafts Club in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

The painting “Mother, Child and Birdcage” was likely exhibited at Joseph Heller Gallery, Inc. as part of a one-man show in 1950. Tschacbasov had consecutive one-man shows at Joseph Heller Gallery from 1950 to 1953.

$3,000-$5,000

While still working as a commercial illustrator, Andy Warhol created a series of offset lithographs of whimsical fairies and cherubs for his book In the Bottom of My Garden in 1956. He enlisted the help of his friends to do some of the hand-coloring, and had his mother, Julia, with whom he shared an apartment on the Upper East Side of New York City, write the script text.

The title came from a song by Rose Fyleman and Liza Lehmann entitled “There are Fairies in the Bottom of Our Garden”, which was popularized by singer and comedian Bea Lillie, who was romantically linked to Tallulah Bankhead and became a queer icon.

Provenance: Galerie Georges Giroux, Brussels, Belgium; Sotheby’s, New York, June 22, 1983, lot 20; Collection of Monica Perls and the late Hugo Perls (1886-1977), New York; The Estate of Gary Baxter Webb, Houston, Texas; Private collection, New Orleans, Louisiana.

Literature: Feltkamp, Ronald. Theo van Rysselberghe, 18621926. Paris: Editions de l’amateur, 2003, no. 1912-028.

$30,000-$50,000

Theo van Rysselberghe was a talented Belgian NeoImpressionist, who was one of the founding members of the Brussels avant-garde group Les Vingt (The Twenty). The group, comprised of twenty independent artists, promoted diverse styles that rejected the traditions of the art academies and the Salon which sanctioned them through state-funded exhibitions. Instead, they exhibited annually on their own in concert with twenty other invited international artists. Through these exhibitions, van Rysselberghe was introduced to French NeoImpressionism and the divisionist technique of employing dots of pigment and allowing the eye to mix them through a complex understanding of color theory and optics rather than mixing them on the palette. The painting offered here is a fine example of his early exploration with divisionism, whereas this oeuvre, painted after he moved to Paris in 1897, shows a far greater command of the technique in the juxtaposition of the mimosas with the complimentary colored decorative background. Though not dated, van Rysselberghe painted three other paintings of mimosas in 1912 that, according to Ronald Feltkamp, are consistent with the style in this example.

Why am I so incredibly and incurably romantic about Cornwall? One’s past, I suppose; I see children running in the garden... The sound of the sea at night... almost forty years of life, all built on that, permeated by that: so much I could never explain.”

-- Virginia Woolf, 1921.

Best known for his marine paintings, Hayley Lever’s long artistic career resulted in works of various subjects in numerous styles, from impressionistic to expressionistic. He was born in South Australia in 1875 and after completing and excelling at art classes at Prince Alfred and Norwood Art School, he moved to England in the 1890s, studying art in London and painting at St. Ives, a fishing port and popular artistic colony on the Cornish coast. There, Lever shared a studio with Frederick Waugh, and studied painting with Albert Julius Olsson and Algernon Talmage. A painting by Frederick Waugh is included in our July auction, lot 501.

“Summer Evening, St. Ives” was produced during his stay in the small fishing town that has captured the imagination of artists and writers since the early 1800s, drawn to the dramatic landscapes, and the light illuminating the waters from dawn to dusk, a result of the bay’s geographical position.

While St. Ives greatly contributed to the revolutionary styles of British Modernism, many European and American marine artists flocked to the picturesque village, finding inspiration in the soft light and turquoise waters.

In this quiet painting of fishing boats, moored in the little harbor, captured on a warm summer afternoon, one can feel the sunlight upon one’s face, each color brightened in the sun-drenched harbor.

The artist has chosen to execute the scene in the wide, thick brushstrokes, reminiscent of the great impressionist Vincent Van Gogh whom Lever idolized. We are invited to linger and meditate on the colors and shapes of an environment that is essentially timeless as it is devoid of people and landmarks.

William Henry Buck (Norwegian/Louisiana, 1840-1888)

Provenance: Purchased from the artist; thence by descent in the family; to be sold for the benefit of Griffith Homeplace Museum, Terrell, Texas.

$100,000-$150,000

The Norwegian-born painter William Henry Buck arrived in New Orleans in 1869, and studied with prominent artists of the day including Richard Clague and Andres Molinary. Buck became an active member of the city’s emerging art community of the late 19th century and achieved recognition for his plein-air paintings of the Louisiana landscape. In 1708, Native American Indians shared with Jean-Baptiste Bienville that Bayou St. John, which they called Bayouk Choupic, was a natural portage to the Mississippi River. Because it offered a route from the lake to the river, Bayou St. John played an essential role in the founding of New Orleans. After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, the Carondelet Canal was dug which connected the back of the city with the Bayou St. John.

In the mid-19th century, Marie Laveau was known to perform voodoo ceremonies including inviting the public to St. John’s Eve ritual on Bayou St. John.

In the painting “Sunrise Over Bayou St. John”, Buck captures the break of day, as the sun rises over the bayou filled with Spanish moss-draped live oak trees.

Jean Joseph Vaudechamp (French, 1790-1866; active New Orleans 1831-1839)

Provenance: Private collection, France.

$2,500-$4,000

While studying at Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Jean Joseph Vaudechamp apprenticed in the studio of Anne-Louis Girodet. An accomplished artist, Girodet was a student of the renowned Neoclassical painter Jacques-Louis David. Favoring portraiture, Vaudechamp;s paintings reflect his talents at refined draftsmanship and capturing the sophistication of his sitters. In 1832, Vaudechamp began to make annual trips for ten years to New Orleans where his portraits were highly regarded and came to define the prosperous merchants and planters of French descent.

Dated 1827 "Portrait d'Homme" was painted while Vaudechamp was still in France and is among his earliest portrait work. The skillfully rendered portrait reflects the elements that would become representative of Vaudechamp's work in Louisiana including the elegantly dressed sitter depicted in a bust-length view. Interestingly, Vaudechamp employed a simple olive brown background that he would favor in his later Louisiana portraits.

The firm of Hache & Cie. was located in Vierzon on the Cher River and in the department of the same name. Successors to the firm of Petry & Ronsse (which itself could be traced back to the early days of the Restauration), the company was founded in 1845 by brothers-in-law Adolphe Hache and Leon PepinLehalleur. The new industrialized manufacturing techniques introduced by Hache & Pepin-Lehalleur - coupled with the region’s rich supplies of clay and firewood - established Vierzon as a major porcelain manufacturing center of France, which it would remain until the French economic crises of the 1970s. Pepin-Lehalleur retired in 1872, succeeded in the firm by his sons, after which the firm was known as Hache & Lehalleur fils. Following Adolphe Hache’s retirement in 1885, he was succeeded by his son and son-in-law as Alfred Hache, Jullien & Cie., known from 1893 simply as A. Hache & Cie. These companies received numerous exhibition awards, including silver medals in Paris in 1858 and 1867, a prize medal in London in 1862, gold medals in Paris in 1867 and 1878, diplomas of honor in Vienna in 1872 and Paris in 1889. Adolphe Hache was awarded the Legion d’Honneur in 1886, and Alfred Hache served as the President of the Ceramics Jury in the Paris Exposition of 1900. See Chavagnac & de Grollier, Histoire des Manufactures Francaises de Porcelaine (Paris: Picard & fils, 1906), pp. 694-695, for a brief history of the company and their marks.

1. Introduction

(a). These Conditions of Sale (“Conditions of Sale”) contain all the terms governing Auctions (defined below) conducted by Cakebread Art Antiques Collectables, Inc. d/b/a New Orleans Auction Galleries (“NOAG”), and all the terms under which NOAG and the Seller (defined below) of a Lot (defined below) contract with the Buyer (defined below). These Conditions of Sale may be amended by posted notices or oral announcements made during the Auction.

(b). Under these Conditions of Sale, the following capitalized terms are defined as follows:

• An “Auction” is a public auction conducted by NOAG, at which Bidders may place Bids to purchase one or more Lots offered for sale by NOAG. An Auction takes place over one or more days and includes separate auctions of one or more Lots within an event conducted by NOAG;

• The “Auctioneer ” is the auctioneer calling the Auction conducted by NOAG; A “Bid” is a bid made by a party at the Auction to purchase a Lot;

• A “ Bidder ” is (i) a person making a Bid at the Auction (whether in person, through an absentee bid, through electronic or internet means, or through telephone bidding); and/or (ii) a person who attends the Auction and registers to make a Bid (whether in person, through an absentee bid, through electronic or internet means, or through telephone bidding);

• A “ Buyer ” is the party that commits to purchase a Lot by submitting the Winning Bid at Auction;

• “ Buyer’s Premium” is defined in Section 4 below;

• “Catalogue” is the Auction catalogue utilized by NOAG to list the Lots offered at Auction;

• The “ Estimates” are the high and low estimates of value for each Lot set forth in the Catalogue presented by NOAG in connection with the Auction or otherwise set forth and/or announced at the Auction;

• The “ Hammer Price” for a Lot is the amount of the Winning Bid at the Auction, as announced by the Auctioneer, exclusive of commissions, Buyer’s Premium, expenses, and any taxes or other charges;

• A “ Lot ” is specific item of property offered for sale at Auction; The “Reserve” is defined in Section 3 below;

• The “ Winning Bid” is, as to a particular Lot, the Bid recognized by the Auctioneer as the highest and best Bid for that Lot.

(d). By bidding at the Auction as a Bidder or Buyer, and/or by your signature on the bid form, paddle or online registration, you agree to be bound by these terms.

2. Before the Auction

(a). ALL SALES ARE “AS IS, WHERE IS” WITH NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER.

(i) NEITHER NOAG NOR THE SELLER PROVIDES ANY GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY AS TO THE NATURE, DESCRIPTION, GENUINENESS, PROVENANCE, IMPORTANCE, OR CONDITION OF THE LOT. All Sales and Auctions are without any representation or warranty of any kind by NOAG or the Seller. Bidders and Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the Lots and the matters referred to in the catalogue entry, the Condition Report, or in any other statement or writing provided. All Sales are final and are “AS IS WHERE IS.”

(ii) No warranty of redhibition. ANY WARANTY AGAINST REDHIBITORY DEFECTS IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty against redhibitory defects, including without limitation: (x) any defects rendering a Lot useless or its use inconvenient; and (y) any defects diminishing the usefulness of a Lot; and any such warranties are waived and excluded. In addition, NOAG and Seller provide no warranties, guarantees, or representations as to whether a Lot is fit for its ordinary use, fit for Buyer’s intended use or for Buyer’s particular purpose.

(iii) No warranty against eviction. ANY WARRANTY AGAINST EVICTION IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED. In the event that Buyer is evicted from possession of whole or part of the Lot, neither NOAG nor Seller have any duty whatsoever to return any part of the Purchase Price to Buyer. Buyer is buying at Buyer’s sole risk and peril as to third parties who may claim rights in the Lot after the Sale.

(iv) No warranty as to authorship. NOAG does not make any express or implied warranty as to authorship of works of art and fine art. No statement in the Catalogue or elsewhere, orally or in writing, shall be construed as an express or implied warranty, representation or limitation of liability as to authorship. Any such warranty is WAIVED.

(v) No warranty of peaceful possession, etc. The following warranties are waived and excluded: the absence of hidden defects, peaceful possession, and ownership. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty that the Lot is free from hidden defects, or for peaceful possession, or for ownership.

(vi) No other warranties. None of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, give any representation, warranty or guarantee or assume any liability of any kind in respect of any Lot with regard to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, description, size, quality, condition, attribution, authenticity, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, exhibition history, literature or historical relevance. Except as required by local law, any express or implied warranty of any kind whatsoever is excluded by this Section 2(a).

(b). Examination of property / Condition Reports. Prospective Buyers and Bidders are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the Auction takes place. As a convenience, Bidders may request that NOAG produce a Condition Report (“Condition Report”) for a Lot, which, if produced, will provide additional detail concerning the condition of the Lot as observed by NOAG’s staff. NOAG reserves the right to decline to produce a Condition Report for any specific Lot, for any reason and in NOAG’s sole discretion.

Rev. Jan. 2023

(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. Jan. 2023

(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, and for bids placed though online bidding partners LiveAuctioneers and Invaluable consisting of a 28% premium of the Hammer Price, up to and including a Hammer Price of $200,000; and 12% of the amount by which the Lot’s Hammer Price exceeds $200,000 (NO DISCOUNTS); 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. Jan. 2023

(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.
