Letter from the ceo “She has long been haunting my paintings, the great central image of my art.” - Marc Chagall (1887-1985)

While his renowned talent as an early modernism artist is unequivocal, Marc Chagall’s passion for beauty is a longing to which I think many of us can relate. To be completely enraptured by something (or, in his case, someone … Bella Rosenfeld, his wife), is an indulgent joy in and of itself.

I have long had an appreciation for this particular Chagall painting, but when Casi, who recently earned an Appraisal Studies Certificate in fine and decorative art from New York University, so eloquently shared the emotional story behind it, well, I am now enthralled with it. After all, who among us is not in love with true love?

Chagall articulated this feeling of desire prolifically through an array of mediums, providentially leaving a legacy of fine art for us to enjoy today. Among his notable works is the stunning “Le Bouquet d’Amour,” which New Orleans Auction Galleries is honored to offer in our March auction (lot 920).

Continuing our obsession with all things beautiful, we will be hosting a special event in March, and I want you to be the first to know about it. The very talented fashion designer Adam Lippes will feature sportswear from his luxury lifestyle brand for women and men during an exclusive trunk show for friends of NOAG during our auction preview party (details below).

"This painting exemplifies the magical, dreamlike poetry of Chagall’s work,” said Nicole Casi, NOAG researcher and fine art specialist. It is a symphony in blue that celebrates two of the most recurring themes painted by the artist: lovers and the crowded rooftops of his childhood village in Vitebsk, Belarus (then part of the Russian Empire), where Chagall met Bella, his young bride." Casi – who holds doctorate and master’s degrees in the history of art from Cornell University, among many other scholarly achievements – pointed to Chagall’s muse, whom she calls the artist’s ultimate raison d'être. Bella was, Casi said, a representation of “a purity of love that spilled forth in his paintings, defying gravity and perspective, causing figures to soar through the skies and objects to dance in tandem in a kaleidoscope of colors and forms." In 1944, Bella, an American war émigré, died suddenly; however, Chagall’s desire to draw artistic inspiration from her continued. “The song of Bella and his beloved Belarus persisted in the composition of ‘Le Bouquet d’Amour,’ also known as ‘Amoureux au Bouquet,’ which he painted several times between the late 1940s and early 1960s,” said Casi, who joined NOAG in 2015 after a successful career in academia. “In each, lovers who resemble Chagall and Bella embrace beneath an overwhelming plume or tree – the flowering bouquet the wellspring of their love rooted in the courtship of their youth beneath the moonlit village.”

Lippes is, of course, a prominent international designer who launched his own collection in 2004 after years in the fashion industry. Since that time, the brand is represented in 75 luxury retailers – including Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue – in 29 nations and widely online (AdamLippes.com). Flip to the next spread to learn more about Adam. I have long been an Adam Lippes admirer (and shopper!). The fabrics, colors, and fresh, easy elegance of his creations are genius. I think you’ll love the pieces he is bringing from his New York studio to share just with us. Don’t miss out, so mark your calendars now: The NOAG preview party is Thursday, March 15, 5:00 to 7:30 p.m. The event will offer delicious refreshments as well as the opportunity to see Adam’s latest line and to view Marc Chagall’s “Le Bouquet d’Amour.” The trunk show will continue on Friday, March 16, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. On Saturday and Sunday, March 17-18, we will offer 1,100 lots during the auction, with bidding in person, by phone and online. Among this amazing collection of jewelry, art, silver and furniture, I know you are sure to find your next object of desire.

FEATURED PROPERTY Property Descended in the Kilp Family

Antonio and Carola Kilp, Wiesbaden Germany; to their daughter Carmelita Kilp Blackburn (1923-2017), Sugar Land, Texas

Antonio Kilp was born February 14, 1885 in Muenster, Germany, and his wife, Carola Werner Kilp, was born April 14, 1895 in MĂźnzenberg, Germany. The Kilps settled together in Wiesbaden.

The factory was used to manufacture weapons and munitions, and their home, which was quite grand, was used as a field hospital and officer quarters during the war.

The Kilps, according to immigration and death records, appear to have moved between Germany and Texas from 1921 when Antonio became a naturalized U.S. citizen and the early 1930s. In 1927, they resided again in Wiesbaden. Antonio was fluent in seven languages, including English. Antonio and Carola were strongly against the Hitler regime and chose to leave Germany, ultimately settling in Houston, Texas for a number of years during and after World War II.

Collectors of art and antiquities for generations, the Kilps brought their family collection to the United States when they left Germany.

The German Army confiscated the family’s furniture factory and home in Wiesbaden during the war.

New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to offer property descended in the Kilp Family.

The couple frequently travelled between the United States and Germany following the war. Antonio died January 3, 1959 in Houston and Carola died March 24, 1967 in Germany. She is buried in a German cemetery in Ostheim, Germany.

Dr. George H. Porter III was an accomplished medical executive, and a fixture in business and society both in New Orleans and nationally. He served as the CEO of Alton Ochsner Medical Foundation for over two decades, making him the longest-serving CEO in Ochsner’s history. Born in North Carolina, Porter graduated magna cum laude and received his medical degree with honors from Duke University. After completing his internship at Duke, he did residencies at Barnes Hospital at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and the Peter Bent Brigham Hospital at Harvard Medical School in Boston. Porter went on to complete a hematology fellowship at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Maryland, where he worked as part of a team that developed treatments for Hodgkin’s disease and childhood leukemia. He moved to New Orleans in 1964, marking the beginning of his decades-long career at Ochsner. Porter served as president of the Alton Ochsner Medical Foundation from 1980 until 2001, when the Ochsner Clinic Foundation was formed. When Porter became president, he oversaw the Ochsner Clinic, Ochsner Foundation Hospital and a research facility. During his tenure, he oversaw the development of numerous satellite clinics and an expansion of educational and research programs. In addition to his role at Ochsner, he was a fellow at the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer and a fellow and life member of the American College of Physicians. He also served on the boards of the American Medical Center Consortium, the Greater New Orleans Area branch of the American Cancer Society and the Louisiana Cancer and Lung Trust Fund.

He was a former chairman of the Bureau of Governmental Research, a former vice chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and a member of the Metropolitan Crime Commission, Gallier House, the Business Task Force on Education and the Eye, Ear, Nose & Throat Hospital.

Jakob Bogdani, a native of Presov, Hungary, moved to Amsterdam in 1684 where he was trained in the Dutch Golden Age tradition of the masters Melchior de Hondecoeter (1636‑1695) and Willem van Aelst (1627‑1683) - who specialized in still lifes with wild game and flowers. In 1688 Bogdani traveled to London, where he would remain for the rest of his life, seeking employment first with William III, Prince of Orange, before being appointed court painter to Queen Anne. Under the tutelage of the court, Bogdani achieved great success, earning commissions from some of the most esteemed aristocrats, such as Queen Mary II and Admiral George Churchill, brother of the Duke of Marlborough.

19 Continental Oak Refectory Table

Churchill, one of his chief patrons, owned the famous aviary at Windsor Park, affording Bogdani ample access to the many exotic birds he depicted like the cockatoo in the painting offered here. Bogdani’s superb still lifes typically featured the imported goods of London’s rich maritime trade; foreign species of birds and flowers crowded his paintings with white and scarlet highlights in the plume and foliage accentuated by dark backgrounds. Examples of his work are conserved in the Royal Collection and Fitzwilliam Museum in London and in Magyar Nemzeti Galeria in Budapest.

Provenance: Estate of Dr. George Porter III, New Orleans, Louisiana. $2,000‑$4,000 Little is known of James Fellowes, the artist of the portrait offered here. He was active in Cheshire and Wales in the first half of the 18th century, and appears to have been somewhat itinerant, often producing portraits of members of the same community or family within a short period of time. He signed and dated most of his works en verso of the canvas, so it is possible to follow his travels to some degree. Between 1751 and 1755, several members of the prominent Vaughan/Nanney family of Nannau, North Wales, sat for Fellowes and three portraits, presently conserved at Amgueddfa Cymru, Cardiff (National Museum of Wales), have been identified: William Vaughan, Catherine Nanney Vaughan, and Ann Vaughan. The latter two bear a striking resemblance to the work offered here, both in feature and composition. All three women are presented in 3/4 length, shoulders at a slight angle, heads slightly turned, finely dressed in silk and white lace, with a strand of lustrous pearls across and slightly dipping below the bosom. Of the numerous extant portraits of women by Fellowes, these are the only three to reveal such a carefully and prominently displayed strand of pearls, suggesting a very specific meaning which, unfortunately, has been lost to posterity. The similarity of features between the portrait of Catherine and this unidentified sitter is undeniable; the same deep-set , heavy-lidded dark eyes, strong brown, roundly tipped noses, and thin upper lips. The two women could be sisters.

205 British School (First Quarter 19th Century), “Portrait of Francis Spencer Hawkins, of H.M.’s Bengal Indian Army” oil on canvas unsigned. Presented in an antique carved giltwood frame. 36‑1/4” x 28”, framed 43” x 35” $1,000‑$1,500 Francis Spencer Hawkins was born into an Anglo-Indian military family; his father was Colonel Thomas Hawkins of His Majesty’s Bengal Indian Army. Following in his father’s footsteps, Hawkins entered the Bengal Army as an Ensign in 1815 at the tender age of 17. The portrait offered here was likely completed a short time later to commemorate his commission into the army. Hawkins proved a capable and diligent officer, and he steadily rose within the echelons of the army, eventually attaining the rank of Colonel. He was twice married; firstly to Maria Loveday in 1823, with whom he had one daughter, and secondly to Emily Kellet of County Cork, with whom he had two children including a son, Francis Kellet Hawkins, who also joined the Bengal Army (culminating his career as a Major-General). 205

The Bengal Indian Army, formed in 1765, was initially under the auspices of the powerful East India Company. In 1858, in part due to social and political upheavals between the military and the civilians, oversight of the army was transferred to the direct authority of the British Crown.

Literature: Ref: Richard Lancelyn Green and John Michael Gibson, Bibliography of A. Conan Doyle (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1983). $1,500‑$2,500 Coincidental with the February 1892 appearance of the first story in this lot, “The Adventure of the Speckled Band” (the tenth story in the canon), the character of consulting detective Sherlock Holmes and his chronicler Dr. Watson had proved so wildly popular that Conan Doyle’s publishers paid him a thousand pounds for a new series of stories featuring the duo. The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes appeared in October 1892, collecting the first series of stories, including those from the February 1892 through June 1892 issues offered here. The new series of stories began in the Strand with the December 1892 issue here and continuing through December 1893, when they were collected in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes - with the exception of “The Adventure of the Cardboard Box”.

301

It has been suggested that the story’s illicit love affair and double murder (topics which Doyle was keen to keep out of his stories when possible) prompted Doyle to exclude it. It was included in the American edition, but quickly removed because of its controversial nature. It did appear in the third British collection - The Final Bow - and even today, the story is usually found in Memoirs in American Editions and in Final Bow in English ones. Similarly, the famous opening of the story, wherein Holmes seems to read Watson’s mind, interrupting his thoughts with the observation “You are right, Watson, it does seem a most preposterous way of settling a dispute” is sometimes found in the story “The Adventure of the Resident Patient” as well; Doyle thought the passage too good to exclude from The Memoirs, so he added it to the latter story in the first edition. The section was printed in both stories until the error was corrected in the 1928 omnibus edition. 301 detail

Her will, written in September of 1814, with revisions in October and December, was probated on May 18, 1815. One of the witnesses was W. Wilshere, and a bequest in her last codicil reads “to my kind friend Mr. Wilshere I bequeath a seal”; i.e., that a memorial seal in her honor be made for him. This, evidently, is that seal.

797 British School (Fourth Quarter 19th Century) “Death of Ahithophel” oil on canvas unsigned. Framed. 40” x 53”, framed 47” x 60” $4,000‑$7,000 In mid-19th century England there was a shift from the grand historicizing paintings extolled by the salons and academies towards more intimate scenes chosen specifically to engage the sentiments of viewers. Inspired in part by the somewhat radical attitude of the Pre-Raphaelite artists, these resulting works were meticulously and intricately detailed – though not necessarily historically accurate. Great attention is given to textures, patterns and design elements, and the scenes themselves were often instantly identifiable to the intended audience.

796 English Mahogany Bookcase the domed and molded top above an open case fitted with shelves and flanked to either side by fluted pilasters, raised on a plinth base. h. 118”, w. 63”, d. 14” $800‑$1,200

The work offered here is of the suicide of Ahithophel from 2 Samuel 15-17. Though this reference may seem somewhat obscure to contemporary viewers, it was a scene well known to artists of the day; the Pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Burn-Jones completed a related stained glass window. Ahithophel had been a close ally to King David before betraying him and joining forces with his sworn enemy Absalom. When Ahithophel discovers his counsel has been ignored, he returns to his home and hangs himself. The artist has chosen the moment when Absalom is confronted with the dead body of his councilor. This masterfully composed scene portrays Ahithophel’s inert, pale body languidly draped atop the white bedclothes and is in intentional stark contrast to the deep, dark tones of the rest of the painting. The viewer’s attention is instantly drawn to the young man’s body, before taking in the various other elements; the figure grasping his head in despair, the gossiping couple beyond the doorframe to the right, the aide at left. It is a complex scene, with wonderfully detailed draperies and architectural elements.

Literature: Lucie-Smith, Edward and Albert Paley. The Art of Albert Paley: Iron, Bronze, Steel. New York: N. Harry Abrams, 1996. $7,000‑$10,000 “With forged iron, I deal with plasticity. I’m dealing with vulnerability. I have no idea of what I’m capable of doing. It’s only through the process and experience that I understand what my possibilities are and what my limitations are. If I don’t challenge myself, I have no idea. I have just one time to do this.” --Albert Paley Albert Paley, a contemporary metal sculptor and endowed Professor of Art at Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, New York, is one of the world’s leading metalsmiths, well known for the famous Art Nouveau-style Portal Gates he created in 1974 for the Renwick Gallery at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. He has created more than fifty site-specific sculptures and an impressive line of furniture design that is seldom offered at auction. His works are in the collections of major museums throughout Europe and the United States, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. And he is the first sculptor to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Institute of Architects. Before his career took off with the Renwick commission, Paley was first a jewelry designer in the late 1960s at the height of the Art Nouveau revival, creating large sumptuous pieces of twisted gold,

copper and semi-precious stones that swirled and flowed like botanical forms that bespoke of the psychology of the times that Paley described in an interview with NPR as creating “a sense of self, a sense of bearing... What does jewelry do to the individual[s]? How does it manifest their ego or their presence?” Paley’s early proclivity for how to “emotionally and intellectually engage the viewer” through metallurgy underlies all of his work. As stated in the opening quote, Paley’s sculptures are a tour de force of forged movement, of synthesized line, form and ambiance through the literal and symbolic transformation of states, between elasticity and the inelastic ore, associated with modern industry. Paley studios decor line is yet another extension of this aesthetic exploration that specializes in lighting, another key element in architecture. “Sphere Floor Lamp” coaxes new forms that are both fluid and flotsam, sculpting unity and deconstruction through the inertia of bending, power lathes and pneumatic hammers that exemplify Paley’s virtuoso.

“My painting represents not the dream of one people but of all humanity”…. ~Marc Chagall Marc Chagall, one of the most celebrated artists of the 20th century, touched thousands through his art, transforming the nostalgia of his childhood in Vitebsk, a tiny Jewish shtetl in Belarus (then part of the Russian Empire) into a wellspring of hope, creating whimsical scenes that border on the supernatural through their motley juxtaposition of color, scale and perspective that employ elements of cubism and fauvism. Though Chagall’s native village was destroyed in two world wars and its Jewish population almost halved, its memory persists in recurring symbols and images that bear witness to the past in vignette-like psalms that sing of life: clowns and musicians (particularly fiddlers) defy gravity, dancing on diminutive rooftops and spiral through heavens of blue; and flowers bloom and lovers swoon ensconced in an embryo of their own. In an open letter to his city Vitebsk, at the height of the holocaust in 1944, Chagall writes: “Why? Why did I leave you many years ago? You [the City] thought: "I can see, I am etched in the boy's heart, but he is still 'flying,' he is still striving to take off, he has 'wind' in his head." ... I did not live with you, but I didn't have one single painting that didn't breathe with your spirit and reflection.” At the time Chagall wrote his letter, he and his wife were living as war emigres in New York; shortly after his wife and the love of his life Bella Rosenfeld died suddenly of an infection that could not be treated due to a wartime shortage of penicillin. Art critic Jackie Wullschlager writes in her biography of Chagall that "as news poured in through 1945….Bella took her place in

Chagall's mind with the millions of Jewish victims.” Following her death, Chagall immortalized her in a lovers' embrace in a multitude of “Bouquets d’Amour”, also known as “Amoureux au Bouquet”, which he painted several times between the late 1940s and early 1960s. This “Bouquet d’ Amour” exemplifies the magical, humanity of the artist’s work; the theme of love is universal. This painting, a veritable symphony in blue, is a testament to Bella, captured in two of the most enduring themes painted by the artist: lovers and the crowded rooftops of Vitebsk where Chagall met his bride. Bella was Chagall’s endless muse and ultimate raison d’etre as an artist. She represented a purity of love that spilled forth in his paintings in a kaleidoscope of colors and forms. As Chagall states in his autobiography My Life: All I had to do was open my window and in streamed the blueness of the sky, love and flowers with her [Bella]. ….she has long been haunting my paintings, the great central image of my art.” In each rendition of “Bouquet d’ Amour”, lovers, who resemble Chagall and Bella, embraced beneath an overwhelming plume or tree - the bouquet the flower of their love rooted in the courtship of their youth beneath the moonlit village.

The stunning glass art of gemmail is very rare, and, by proxy, it is overlooked. The genre that flourished in the mid-20th century, largely due to Pablo Picasso's avid endorsement of the medium, attracted the attention of notable celebrities with the means to purchase them, such as the Emperor of Japan, Prince Rainier of Monaco, Nelson Rockefeller, the Rothschilds and the Weisweillers."Le Repas des Enfants (The Children's Meal)" is the third known gemmail work to be offered at auction. These works are so unique that this lot was first thought to be a pate-de-verre when it was evaluated in 2010 at Sotheby's, New York; and the Evansville Museum in Evansville, Indiana, did not realize they owned a gemmail by Picasso for sixty-one years until a New York auction house traced the provenance of "Femme Assise au Chapeau Rouge (Woman Seated with a Red Hat)" to the industrial designer Raymond Lowery, who donated the work to the Museum in 1961. Gemmail, a compound word meaning "enameled gem" (gemme + email), known also in the plural as gemmaux, is a mid-20th century technique for creating 3D glass art that is designed to be viewed in front of a light box or illuminated from behind. French painter Jean Crotti invented the technique in the 1930s and perfected the process over the next twenty years through the assistance of his neighbor and business associates- the Malherbe-Navarre family (father and two sons), who were physicists that specialized in the molecular diffusion of light and fluorescence. In the early 1950s, they patented the idea and opened a production studio, "Les Gemmaux de France." Whereas stained glass proper uses lead came to join the pieces of glass, creating metal divisions (tracery)

between them, gemmail is a more holistic process whereby multiple fragments of glass in varying sizes, shapes and colors are layered on a large piece of clear glass and then immersed in a special enamel solution to set the composition. The work is then placed in a low fire kiln that allows the pieces to bond, but not melt, creating a translucent painting that retains the clarity and superposition of the fragments. Pablo Picasso was immediately enamored by gemmail when fellow artist Jean Cocteau introduced him to it in 1954, and began experimenting with the process and collaboratively working with Crotti and the Malherbe-Navarres. Between 1954 and the first Picasso retrospective exhibition in 1957, Picasso authorized Les Gemmaux to reproduce sixty of his masterpieces, twenty of which were exhibited two years later in the first American exhibition of gemmaux. When "Le Repas des Enfants" was evaluated in 2010 by Picasso's son, Claude, he stated that while the work was indeed a gemmail piece after his father's 1953 painting, he could not ascertain if the work was authorized by his father through Les Gemmaux as the records are incomplete. Gemmail pieces are typically signed before they are fired, so if "Le Repas des Enfants" was not produced by the Malherbe-Navarres on behalf of Picasso, then by whom? Of the sixty known works Les Gemmaux produced for Picasso, only the location of a handful are known, most remain in private collections. Is this stunning work of gemmail another discovery?

952 “Course of the River Mississipi [sic], from the Balise to Fort Chartres...” by Lieutenant John Ross of the 34th Regiment, engraved and published with hand-colored outlines by Robert Sayer and John Bennett, London, 1775. Matted, glazed and framed. plate 45” x 14”, framed 55” x 25‑1/4” Provenance: Private collection of Hugo Wedemeyer, New Orleans, Louisiana. $2,500‑$4,000 This map was the first official English survey of the lower Mississippi region, published at the outset of the American Revolution in Thomas Jefferys’ watershed American Atlas by Sayer and Bennett. It was commissioned by the British government in 1765 to illustrate the scope of the economical and strategical gains it acquired in the French and Indian War. Lieutenant John Ross, a distinguished member of the 34th Regiment of Foot, who served in the siege of Havana and garrison of West Florida, charted the lower Mississippi River from the mouth of the Missisippi (Fort Belise) just south of New Orleans north to Fort Chartres, just south of St. Louis. Ross’ map depicts the River’s course in excellent detail with comprehensive information on boundaries, forts, villages, arable lands and cane fields, as well as navigational data on the depths and soundings of the Mississippi and Gulf for approaching ships. To date, it is one of the most important maps of the late 18th century in terms of cartography and American colonial history.

When scholars first began to seriously study Early American portraiture within the larger framework of American art history, one of the main debates was how closely it was connected to and influenced by English portraitists; could it be considered a distinct style, or was it merely a location based variation? Confusing the issue was the indisputable fact that many of these early American artists had lived, studied, or worked in England. In fact, it was not unusual for an artist to travel back and forth between the two countries and it is often difficult, if not impossible, to definitively track their travels. One such artist was Joseph Blackburn. Little is known of Blackburn’s education or artistic experience, though it is likely that he apprenticed in the studio of a London portraitist. Much of his earliest work, spanning from his beginnings in England, and including his years in Bermuda and New England, reveal the influence of mezzotints of the 18th century English masters of portraiture; figures are within a half or full oval surround, and there is a decided emphasis on the fabrics and accoutrements of wealth and prestige, often at the expense of true likeness.

In addition to the distinctive oval format, the two portraits offered here reveal several key characteristics of Blackburn’s approach to portraiture; thin compressed lips with distinctive deep dimples at the corners, full cheeks and fleshy, rounded chins, strong linear bridge of nose, and what has been referred to as his “rococo palette” of clear blues, pinks and reds. They are less opulently dressed than some of his full length or multifigural portraits, but are strikingly similar to his “Portrait of a Woman”, ca. 1762 now conserved at the Brooklyn Museum, New York or “Portrait of Anne Saltonstall”, at the San Antonio Museum of Art, Texas., References: Miles, Ellen G., ed.

The original monumental sculpture of the Marquis de Lafayette, the French hero of the American Revolutionary War, is in New York’s Union Square Park. A gift of the French residents of the city, it is a suitably impressive figure, resting on an elaborate carved granite pedestal. The sculptor of this work, Bartholdi, is most well-known for his “Liberty Enlightening the World” - coolloquially “The Statue of Liberty”, which is on Bledsoe’s Island in New York Harbor where it has grandly greeted visitors to the United States since its installation in 1886. This sculpture was also a gift of the French to the citizens of the United States.

Harrison’s map, published shortly after the American Revolutionary War, is a striking representation and translation of D’Anville’s map with the coasts, lakes and bayous outlined in green.

993 Rare “Norman’s Plan of New Orleans & Environs” hand-colored lithograph map by Henry Moellhausen, published by B. M. Norman, New Orleans, 1845. Unframed. sheet 18‑1/2” x 25‑1/2” 994

Provenance: Private collection of Hugo Wedemeyer, New Orleans, Louisiana. $900‑$1,200 This rare map is unparalleled in the scope of its detail that illustrates significant social mores through historical boundaries. In 1836, the city charter was repealed and redrawn around Anglo and French Creole communities due to mounting ethnic tensions. The boundaries of these three new municipalities (with their own council, police force and taxes) that lasted until 1852 are clearly delineated on the map in pink/green, green/pink and orange/yellow lines with corresponding street plans and block numbers. Intersecting these municipalities are the transportation lines - railways, canals and ferries, and footprints of dozens of other major edifices, many of which are identified on the legend at the base that contains an impressive listing of public buildings, banks, churches, theaters and businesses. 994 “Louisiana”, Charted After the Lewis and Clark Expedition (1804‑1806) hand-colored engraving by Samuel Lewis and Henry Schenck Tanner, published 1812, matted; together with a “Plan of New Orleans”, hand-colored engraving by Wellington Williams, published ca. 1845‑1869. Both matted. sheet sizes 10‑1/4” x 8‑1/2” and 8” x 8‑3/4” Provenance: Private collection of Hugo Wedemeyer, New Orleans, Louisiana. $800‑$1,200 With the first map, American map maker Samuel Lewis partnered with Aaron Arrowsmith, English hydrographer to the King, to create better articulated maps for atlases of the new Louisiana Purchase territory. Based on an earlier map by Antoine Soulard, this fine map, which depicts the region west of Mississippi explored by Lewis and Clark, became the primary map of the new territory and its surroundings, as it was easy to navigate with its clean lines and attractive coloring.

1005 Manner of Ammi Phillips (American, 1788‑1865) “Portrait of a Gentleman in a White Linen Cravat” oil on canvas second or third quarter 19th century, unsigned. Framed. 29‑3/4” x 24‑1/8”, framed 33‑1/2” x 28” The majority of early Colonial American portraits were unsigned works completed by itinerant artists who traveled a circuit of New England and Mid-Atlantic states. It is, therefore, often difficult to definitively attribute a portrait to a specific artist except for the few rare occasions where there exists contemporaneous documentation in the form of letters, receipts, or even diary entries. It is not unusual for a portrait to have been ascribed for decades as the work of one artist, only for newly unearthed writings to reveal it is the work of another. The wonderful example of early American portraiture presented here, of an unidentified man, is indicative of the works produced by such itinerant artists, and is especially reminiscent of the portraits by Ammi Phillips. The assertive, direct gaze, strongly delineated facial features, the empty, darkened background, and the somewhat blockish approach to the body are all characteristics of Phillips’ work as seen in such portraits as “Colonel Nathan Beckwith” at the Brooklyn Museum, New York, or “Portrait of Henry Teller”, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. 1005

1027

It is impossible to discuss the importance of Newcomb College art pottery without mentioning its preeminent potter, Joseph Meyer, and decorator Sadie Irvine, yet little is stated about Meyer as a ceramicist proper, or about Irvine’s contribution to the Newcomb Guild. Meyer, often regarded as the father of all Gulf Coast pottery, came from a long lineage of master French potters, who immigrated to America from Alsace and settled in Biloxi ca. 1857. After the Meyer’s pottery store in Back Bay was destroyed in the August hurricane of 1860, the Meyers eventually moved to New Orleans and set up shop near City Park and founded the New Orleans Art Pottery Company. Before joining Newcomb in 1896, Meyer trained George Ohr, the eccentric Biloxi potter in New Orleans and later; while at Newcomb, at the behest of the Woodwards, he advised the young Anderson brothers on the development of Shearwater Pottery. In contrast to Newcomb’s iconic slip painted pastels with botanical themes (exemplified in many of the other Newcomb lots), Meyer preferred experimental copper and red reduction glazes and fire glazes in iridescent and metallic hues, some of which

320

are well demonstrated on these two bowls and the aubergine “Ali Baba” olive jar, named after the Persian tales, because of its shape. The range of glazes, clays, even shapes, represented in this lot is a fine example of the depth and range Meyer achieved. Meyer’s experimental works were widely exhibited throughout the early 20th century in international fairs and received numerous accolades and awards, including a silver medal at the PanAmerican Exposition in Buffalo, New York, and at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Centennial Exposition in St. Louis. Irvine, under the direction of Robert Durant Field and potter Kenneth Smith, was formative to the development of the Newcomb Guild, which sought to produce commercially oriented pieces of functional design and form inspired by the Bauhaus movement. As the primary decorator and instructor, Irvine was largely responsible for the Guild’s nine beautiful high-gloss earth tone glazes, executed with subtle tonal variations that emanate outward from the rims or bases of the bowls and vases characteristic of these two Lichen Ware and Gulf Stream Ware examples in the preceding lot.

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

(c). Except as otherwise stated, NOAG acts as consignment agent for the Seller. The contract for the sale of the Lot is therefore made between the Seller and the Buyer. (d). By bidding at the Auction as a Bidder or Buyer, and/or by your signature below, 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.

Except as required by local law, any express or implied warranty of any kind whatsoever is excluded by this Section 2(a). (b). Examination of property / Condition Reports. Prospective Buyers and Bidders are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the Auction takes place. As a convenience, Bidders may request that NOAG produce a Condition Report (“Condition Report”) for a Lot, which, if produced, will provide additional detail concerning the condition of the Lot as observed by NOAG’s staff. NOAG reserves the right to decline to produce a Condition Report for any specific Lot, for any reason and in NOAG’s sole discretion. Rev. 01/04/17


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

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

Rev. 01/04/17


(iii) If a Telephone Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, NOAG staff shall attempt to contact the Bidder using the telephone number provided. If successfully contacted, the Bidder shall then be afforded the opportunity to place a Bid on the Lot by telephone. Telephone Bids may be recorded. By submitting a Telephone Bid, the Bidder consents to the recording of the conversation and the placing of the Bid. (iv) Execution of Absentee Bids and Telephone Bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the Auction and neither NOAG nor the Auctioneer shall have any liability for failing to execute an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid or for errors and omissions in connection therewith. (d). Video or digital images. At some Auctions there may be a video or digital screen. Errors may occur in its operation and in the quality of the image and we do not accept liability for such errors. NOAG reserves the right to video tape and record proceedings at any Auctions. Any personal information obtained will be held in confidence by NOAG but may be used or shared with our affiliates and marketing partners for customer analysis purposes and to help us to tailor our services to buyer requirements. Any Bidder attending an Auction in person who does not wish to be video-taped may make arrangements to make a Telephone Bid in accordance with Section 3(c) above. (e). Reserves. All Lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold (the “Reserve”). The Reserve for a Lot will not exceed the low Estimate for that Lot. The Auctioneer may open the bidding on any Lot below the Reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller. The Auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the Reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lot may be sold at a Hammer Price below the Reserve, at the discretion of the Auctioneer and NOAG, in any manner consistent with the agreement between NOAG and the Seller. (f). No bidding by Seller. Under no circumstances shall Seller (as agent or principal), whether by itself or through its representatives, employees or agents (except as through the Auctioneer as set forth in Section 3(e) above), enter or cause to be entered a Bid on Seller’s Lot. (g). Auctioneer’s discretion. The Auctioneer has the right at his or her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any Bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he or she may decide, to withdraw or divide any Lot, to combine any two or more Lots, and in the event of any error or dispute, to determine the Winning Bid, to continue the bidding, to cancel the Sale or to reoffer and resell the Lot or item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the Sale, NOAG’s sale record is conclusive. Unless otherwise announced by the Auctioneer at the time of Sale, all Bids are per Lot as numbered in the Catalogue and no Lot shall be divided for Sale. NOAG and/or the Auctioneer may withdraw any Lot at any time before such Lot is offered at Auction, for any reason and in their sole and absolute discretion. (h). Successful bid and passing of risk. The Auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the Winning Bid and the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer marks the acceptance of the highest and best bid as the Winning Bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the Seller and the Buyer. Risk and responsibility for the Lot but not its title passes to the Buyer immediately upon announcement of the Winning Bid at the Auction. (i). Post-auction sale. In the event that there is no Winning Bid at Auction for a Lot, or the Lot is withdrawn from the Auction, or the Sale is cancelled for non-payment pursuant to Section 4(g) below, NOAG may sell the Lot at public or private sale at any time thereafter, in a manner consistent with the agreement between Seller and NOAG. (j). NOAG assumes no responsibility for failure to execute Bids for any reason whatsoever.

4. After the Auction (a). In order to consummate and complete the Sale, the Buyer must tender payment in full of all of the following amounts (all such amounts together being the “Purchase Price”) to NOAG: (i) the Hammer Price; and (ii) the “Buyer’s Premium” consisting of a premium of 25% of the Hammer Price (discounted to 22% if the method of payment is by check, cash, or wire transfer [subject to a $30 fee for domestic wires and a $60 fee for international wires] by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction) 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.
