LET TER FROM THE CEO

What makes a home? Walls and a roof? No, a home is much more than a structure. It is a place where we can be ourselves, a place where we prepare ourselves for the world outside, a place to go when we need to feel safe. It is where we put our stuff; it is an expression of who we are and who we want to be; it is the place where our most treasured memories are made. Most importantly, it is where we live with the people we love, our families and our precious pets. “The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned.” Maya Angelou Our hearts go out to the thousands of people who have been impacted by hurricanes this summer, losing their homes and their possessions. So very much has been lost that cannot be replaced. Thousands have had their lives turned upside down and while we are incredibly saddened by the catastrophic devastation, we are also heartened by the outpouring of generosity and humanity. Our spirits were lifted to see the vast numbers of brave volunteers and early responders risk their lives to rescue those in need; to hear the stories and the gratitude of

people who received help, comfort and support; and we salute the legions who moved quickly to organize supplies, shelters, food and clothing. We are again reminded of the goodness of people. Over and over we heard, yes, we lost our home, but everyone is safe, proving again that our hearts do not lie within four walls, but with those we love. We will rebuild our neighborhoods and communities. We will move on into the future with optimism, wiser though from our experiences. For so many, new chapters will be written; the unfamiliar and alien will become home. Our prayers and good wishes are with you. As Swedish writer Henning Mankell said, “You can have more than one home. You carry your roots with you, and decide where they grow.” With love from the New Orleans Auction Galleries Team,


“The size of the auction or the item for sale doesn't change the importance of doing a good job. Every sale means something to somebody and that's what it is all about. If it's important to them, it has to be important to me.” — RANDOLPH HOLFORD

From a 2015 interview with the Houston Chronicle

New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to welcome back Randolph Holford as guest auctioneer for our October 14-15 Estates Auction. From livestock to Lalique, Holford has sold countless items over the past 40 years in the auction business. However, he is most recognized as the official auctioneer for the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, a position he has held since 1985. His legendary auction skills and distinctive style have raised millions for what has become one of the largest non-profit organizations in the United States.


New Orleans Auction Galleries is committed to supporting education in our community and beyond. As part of that commitment, we are pleased to announce that we are partnering with Houston-based non-profit To Educate All Children (TEACH) and world renowned jewelry designer Matthew Campbell Laurenza for our Fine Jewelry, Furs & Accessories auction on November 18. The sale will feature a unique jeweled box designed by Laurenza and 100% of the proceeds from this spectacular piece will benefit TEACH. We invite you to join us on November 18 to support TEACH's vision of ensuring that school is a safe, calm place of learning for every student.

153 Circle of Giovanni Bernardo Carbone (Italian, 1614‑1683) “Portrait of a Gentle Lady in Mourning, Seated in a Bargello Chair” oil on canvas unsigned. Presented in a 19th-century giltwood frame. 47‑7/8” x 39” Provenance: Herbie Oakes Collection, Houston, Texas. $4,000‑$7,000 Giovanni Bernardo Carbone (sometimes spelled Carboni) was an Italian painter from Genoa, who studied under Giovanni Andrea de Ferrari, a pupil of Anthony van Dyck. While Ferrari preferred religious scenes, which he perfected in the form of altarpieces, Carbone’s forte was portraiture - of all the Genoese artists, his work is the most closely allied to van Dyck’s portraits from the 1630s, which were strongly influenced by the Venetian colorists. After a year-long sojourn in Venice, van Dyck established himself as a prolific portraitist in Genoa from 1621‑1627, painting the wealthy with a grandeur that combined the Flemish penchant for detailed refinery and expressive hand and facial gestures/expressions with the color and subtle modeling of Titian. Van Dyck’s presence in Genoa opened a tremendous door of opportunity in the decades that followed for the young Carbone; there was abundant demand for the growing mercantile class to ennoble themselves since the city was both the capital and center of maritime trade in the Liguria region. The painting offered here is strongly suggestive of the portraiture Carbone executed in the manner of van Dyck for the Genoese gentry, and closely resembles the physiognomy, dress and execution of two well-known portraits by van Dyck - “Dorothy, Lady Dacre” (1633) in the British Burger Collection (now housed in the Denver Art Museum), and “Lady with a Rose” in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. Like the aforementioned portraits, the imposing presence of the sitter is depicted in three-quarters view from below, so that the viewer is forced to look upward in admiration at the social position she wields. Even in mourning, she is larger than life, occupying two-thirds of the picture plane with the same voluminous black taffeta gown and diaphanous silk hairpiece as the other two portraits. In all three works, the fabric cascades downward onto the viewer with the weight of their prestige. In Carbone’s portrait, the fine modeling of the face, detailed lace rebato - a lighter version of the ruff collar - black pearls and elongated expressive hands (another van Dyckian convention) that touch the breast and finger the embroidered handkerchief all bespeak of the sitter’s position within a prominent family. In addition to the rich, imported fabrics and pearls, perhaps the most telling example of her mercantile wealth is the stunning Bargello patterned chair in which she sits with its prominently displayed gilt brass/bronze floral rivets and architectonic finials. The fine Bargello needlepoint, characterized by colorful geometric patterns, is believed to have originated in Hungary, and was imported into Italy in the 17th century. One of the earliest known examples of the Hungarian point, a set of upholstered armchairs conserved at the Bargello Museum in Florence, bears a striking resemblance to the chair pictured here. The “Lady in Mourning’s” identity, though unknown, is very much embedded in the fabric of Genoese portraiture tradition.

154 Attributed to Caspar Netscher (German, 1639‑1684) “Maiden Seated Before a Still Life of Fruit, a Landscape in the Distance” oil on canvas inscribed “C. Netscher/fecit” and dated “1674” lower right. Framed. 25‑1/2” x 30” $10,000‑$15,000 Caspar Netscher, a German-born artist, assimilated the character of the 17th-century Dutch genre style of his master, Gerard Terborch, into portraiture, characterized by sumptuous dress and settings. Following his apprenticeship with Terborch, Netscher journeyed to Italy, studying the lighting and composition of Renaissance and Baroque masterpieces, which he incorporated into his work through the use of lighting and the diagonal composition. Through the synthesis of these two genres and styles, Netscher was able to introduce a distinctly international style to the Northern Netherlands through his adept handling of costly silks and brocades, as is evidenced in the portrait offered here. The blue taffeta and white silk fringed in lace are dramatically thrust upward in a dazzling array of textures rendered through the bravura of chiaroscuro. The finery of the woman’s dress, as it ensconces her bosom, are a still life in itself, mirroring one of the rare melons at her feet. Both are exotic beauties for the taking of the affluent connoisseurs who patronized Netscher, making him one of the most prolific Dutch artists of his time. His works are conserved worldwide in major museums, such as the National Gallery, London; Amsterdam Museum; Uffizi, Florence; and the Staatliche Museen, Berlin.

After his death, much of his collection was retained by the Salgo Trust for Education, with some items - including the present lot - sold for the benefit of the trust.

215 Continental School (First Quarter 20th Century) “Fete Galante” oil on canvas unsigned. Framed. 73” x 59” $2,500‑$4,000 This fine panel recalls 18th-century vogue for Chinese-inspired works that flourished well into the early 1900s. Europeans were fascinated with the exoticism of the “Orient”, with the fine porcelain, silk, textiles and spices that flooded ports with the expansion of trade in the East in the late 17th/early 18th century through the Swedish East India Companies. China, in the imagination of Europeans, was combined with Turkey, Japan and India, a collective primitive other that dazzled and afforded a fantastic reprieve from the mores and strictures of the West. The influx of Chinese goods coalesced with the Rococo style, characterized by exuberant scrollwork and stylized sea-shell decoration couched in scenes of leisure and pleasure with gardens and courting couples (called fetegalantes) its archetypical subject. Marvels from the orient fueled the imaginative decadence of the genre that also flourished in the decorative arts and interior design, creating an abundant demand for Chinoiserie wallpaper, panels and screens, similar to the example offered here. 215

296 British School (Fourth Quarter 16th/First Quarter 17th Century) “Portrait of Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots (1542‑1587)” oil on panel unsigned. Framed. 21‑1/2” x 17‑1/2” $3,000‑$5,000 Mary Stuart reigned over Scotland from 1542 to1567. She acceded to the throne at six days of age and was forced to abdicate in favor of her one-year-old son James VI after she was suspected of commissioning the murder of her husband and cousin Lord Darnley with her lover Lord Bothwell. With claims to the English throne as well as being the greatgranddaughter of Henry VII, Mary tried unsuccessfully to overthrow another cousin, the Protestant Queen Elizabeth I. For eighteen years, Elizabeth had her imprisoned in various castles and manors in the interior of England, as Mary tried to orchestrate multiple escapes and assassination plots on Elizabeth’s life. Mary was eventually executed in 1586 after being implicated in her last attempted coup, the Babbington plot. For the majority of her incarceration (1570‑1584), she was housed at Sheffield Castle under the strict tutelage of George Talbott. Her captivity, however, was befitting of a queen, and she was issued servants, six-course meals, riding time, even commissioned portraits. One of the last known portraits of Mary was painted by Queen Elizabeth’s court painter Nicholas Hilliard at Sheffield Castle in 1578. The modest miniature executed with extraordinary bravura would live on in infamy, exceeding Mary for nearly a half century. Following her execution, numerous apocryphal images, known as the “Sheffield portraits”, were inspired by the Hilliard one under her son’s reign. The painting offered here is a fine example of a “Sheffield portrait”, as it portrays the bust of Mary in threequarter profile as a matron in her thirties wearing the classic atifet hairpiece - a romantic adaptation of the French hood that Mary popularized in the latter half of the 16th century. Two other similar “Sheffield portraits” are conserved in the Scottish National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh and the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg.

323 Follower of Antonio David (Italian, 1698‑1750) “Prince Charles Edward Stuart, ‘Bonnie Prince Charlie’ (1720‑1788)”, ca. 1730‑1745 oil on canvas unsigned, painted after the original commissioned in Rome in 1732 by his father, James, son of the exiled Stuart King James II and VII. Framed. 28‑1/2” x 24” $1,500‑$2,500

Charles Edward Stuart, known by the sobriquet Bonnie Prince Charlie, grew up in exile in Rome with his father, James Francis Edward Stuart, the heir apparent to James II and VI, King of England, Ireland and Scotland. James was exiled as an infant after King James was deposed in the Glorious Revolution of 1668, and his older Protestant half-sister Mary II and her husband William III of Orange were declared Queen and King. Despite two attempted coups d’etat in 1715 and 1745, neither father nor son was able to reclaim the throne, and remained in Rome. In 1729, James Stuart commissioned the Jacobite (Catholic) court artist Antonio David to paint portraits of his sons Charles and Henry. As the eldest, and heir apparent should the Catholic faction be restored, there was great demand for copies of the young hopeful monarch, Bonnie Prince Charlie. David and his workshop executed several copies, making it difficult to discern the” original”. The Scottish National Gallery has a 1732 portrait also by David that matches the exact measurements of the one offered here, and the National Portrait Gallery in London has a slightly smaller 1729 one from the studio of David. The “copy” in the Blairs Museum was brought to Scotland in the early 18th century from Abbe Peter Grant, and another, painted by the circle of David and gifted (by repute) by King James and Maria Sobieska, recently sold at Lyon & Turnbull in London for $63,000. Numerous as the copies are, period works, such as these, are highly coveted rarities at auction.

324 Studio of Sir Joshua Reynolds, P.R.A. (British, 1723‑1792) “Portrait of William, Lord Pulteney”, 1760s oil on canvas unsigned. In an antique gilt-washed carved wood frame. 36” x 26‑3/4” Provenance: M. Knoedler and Company, New York, New York; A prominent Garden District collection, New Orleans, Louisiana; thence by descent. Exhibited: Dallas Museum of Fine Arts “Four Centuries of European Painting”, October 6, 1951‑January 13, 1952, no. 21.

The sitter of this portrait, William Pulteney, was from an illustrious political family and, before his untimely death from fever, there were expectations that he would surpass his relatives in position and glory. Before the age of 30, Pulteney had twice been a Member of Parliament, achieved the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel in the British Army, was named a Lord of the Bedchamber, and was the Aide de Camp to King George III. It is documented that the prodigious Sir Joshua Reynolds was commissioned to paint several portraits of the young man, including one where he is posed with his beloved hunting dog. A portrait of Pulteney by Reynolds is conserved at the Cincinnati Art Museum in Ohio.

The opulence of this lot suggests that it was originally owned by advocate John Cathcart (1768‑1835), who was lord of Knockdolian Castle at the time of its manufacture, and whose wealth and influence had been augmented by his 1795 marriage to Ann Gordon, granddaughter of the Earl of Aberdeen. The sterling platter is hallmarked Sheffield, and was probably made to fit the base and dome, which are of the fused silver-on-copper plate so well-made in Sheffield that the city’s name became synonymous with it. Whether it was retailed by the Cunningham brothers of Edinburgh or purchased by Cathcart elsewhere and brought to them, their contemporaneous hallmarks on the finial show that Cathcart indulged in the extra expense of having a handsome sterling finial in the shape of his family crest made locally in Scotland; Edinburgh, at 80 miles from Ayrshire, was at the time the nearest silversmithing center capable of producing such detailed custom work.

Wang Shixiang (1914‑2009) was an extremely prominent collector of Chinese Art, and researcher of Chinese culture. He became internationally renowned for his work on an eclectic range of topics, and published over forty books, including the hugely influential Classic Chinese Furniture: Ming and Early Qing Dynasties. In 1985 he was recognized by the Chinese Ministry of Culture for his distinguished efforts in the fields of Chinese culture and history, and in 2003 was honored with the Prince Claus Award for his unparalleled research into the arts of China, and his contribution to the preservation of Chinese cultural heritage after the turmoil of the Cultural Revolution. The burning of incense has always been an integral part of Chinese culture, featuring in rituals from the religious to the medicinal, from neolithic times to the present day. The importance and value of incense burners, therefore, has always been high. They have taken many forms over the years, but it could be argued that the height of production came during the Ming and Qing dynastic periods, when

newly developed techniques and innovative artistic forms, supported by visionary emperors like Kangxi and Qianlong, saw a creative explosion in the region, producing much of the art synonomous with the country today. This exceptional piece, beautiful in its simplicity, is from this remarkable era, and is made all the more distinguished by the rarity of the seal mark found on its base. The four characters of ‘yi shi liu fang’, with their poetic connotations, are rarely found on incense burners, setting this piece apart from other aesthetically similar examples of the period. Another notable aspect of this censer is the inscription in the interior. “Gong bu chen Wu Bangzuo jian zao” translates as “Made for the Ministry of Works under the supervision of Wu Bangzuo” and is found on bronze works of similar form from the late Ming and throughout the Qing periods. Typically appearing alongside an apocryphal Xuande reign mark, to find it coupled with a different seal is another highly unusual aspect of the piece shown here, and adds another dimension to its rarity.

Timeless woman as an object, a goddess, angular, sensual, stylized; but always filled with grace and vitality that is woman. Woman to me is the ideal form, erotic yet pure, compositionary variable, yet identical every time." -David Hostetler Working in sinuous woods and bronze, Hostetler excelled at creating slightly abstracted, stylized female forms which refer back to the earth goddesses of ancient civilizations. Intending on a career as an engineer, Hostetler became interested in art during his recuperation from a shrapnel injury during WW II, when a Red Cross volunteer supplied the young soldier with drawing materials to keep his mind occupied. After the war, he attended Indiana University and received his MA in Fine Art from Ohio University, where he was to teach for almost forty years.

“Parting is such sweet sorrow that I’ll say my goodnight until tonight becomes tomorrow” Romeo and Juliet Act II, Scene 2 William Shakespeare $3,000‑$5,000 The sculpture presented here is from the “Romeo and Juliet” suite by Richard MacDonald, which was inspired by the 1965 Royal Ballet version of Sergei Prokofiev’s 1935 work and featured Rudolf Nureyev and Margot Fonteyn in the titular roles. Macdonald has chosen the dramatic “Balcony” scene where the two young lovers are loathe to leave each other. The tension in the figure of Romeo is almost palpable; the taut muscles, the reaching, grasping hands, and the anguished facial expression all expose his internal torment, and reveal the sculptor’s mastery at the depiction of the human form. Working in the time-consuming “lost wax” technique, MacDonald explores the innate power and complexity of the human figure.

They exhibited at the influential 1925 Exposition Universelle, after which their restrained traditional style was combined with Modernist design to create some of the most elegant European furniture of the mid-century, as exemplified in this superlative lot. 817 Pair of Baccarat “Harmonie” Crystal Whiskey Decanters 20th century, French, the decanters with stoppers and signed on the bottom, in their original boxes. decanter h. 10”, w. 3‑1/2”, d. 3‑1/2” $500‑$800

One of the most accomplished modern animalier artists, Loet Vandeerveen’s sculptures reveal an acute attention to detail and an inherent sympathy with the subjects. Growing up in Rotterdam, the young Vanderveen would visit the local zoo almost daily, eventually earning the trust and respect of the zookeepers, who soon gave the young boy nearly unlimited access to the animals. After bombing during WWII destroyed the city, the suddenly orphaned Vanderveen escaped to Belgium, joined the Dutch army, and ultimately made his way to the US. Vanderveen worked for years drawing sketches for fashion designers before turning to sculpture. His earliest animal figures were ceramic; after a fire destroyed his house and studio in 1985, he began to produce works in bronze, employing the timeconsuming and arduous lost wax technique. Vanderveen’s menagerie of animals, with their rich patinas and highly polished surfaces, run the gamut from the expected and easily recognizable to the more exotic. His works are in numerous permanent collections including the Cincinnati Art Museum; DeYoung Museum, San Francisco; Minneapolis Art Institute; Museum of Contemporary Crafts, New York; and the Pasadena Art Museum.

(including ivory handles)

Georg Jensen’s “Blossom” set (“Magnolie” in Danish) was one of his earliest designs, and was an immediate success. It was praised in the Danish press, and a teapot identical to that in the present lot was purchased by the Danish Museum of Decorative Art at the time. The design was a natural development from the then-current Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts designs, but in retrospect it is regarded as the singular starting point of modernist silver design. Examples of the set are conserved in, among others, the National Museum, Stockholm, the National Gallery, Melbourne, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The present lot is a fine example in excellent condition, accompanied by a copy of the original bill of sale dated less than ten weeks after Jensen’s death.

837 Tiffany & Co. Modernist Sterling Silver Compote designed in 1937, this example third quarter 20th century, New York, New York, with a saucer-shaped bowl above a short cylindridal standard with incised threaded banding and very slightly domed foot. h. 4‑1/4”, dia. 12‑1/2”; 44.22 t. oz. $800‑$1,200 This compote was one of Tiffany’s most successful modernist designs. It was introduced in 1937 in a much smaller version, one of which is conserved in the Jewel Stern American Silver Collection at the Dallas Museum of Art. This larger design was first produced around 1951, and the present example made sometime between 1956 (when William T. Lusk, whose initial marks this piece, became director of Tiffany) and around 1965 (when the use of the directory’s initials on Tiffany marks was discontinued).

Sterling Silver Bowl the pattern introduced in 1920, this example 1947‑1956, New York , New York, part of Tiffany’s reproduction series of important American silver, this bowl after a ca. 1700 example by Joseph Conyers, Boston, of plain hemispherical form with simple foot ring, monogrammed “FWB”. h. 4”, dia. 9‑1/8”; 24.25 t. oz. $600‑$900 This striking bowl, one of Tiffany’s most popular, is a testament to the endurance of American design. The late 17th-/early 18th-century original was part of the collection of Connecticut bed linen and quilt manufacturer George Smith Palmer (1855‑1934), a pioneering figure in the study and collection of American decorative arts. Palmer began to divest himself of his important collection in 1918, donating his sixty-five best furniture pieces to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, followed by the sale of his silver collection in 1920 to Tiffany & Co. (The remainder was sold to antiquarian Israel Sack in 1928.) Tiffany immediately placed Palmer silver on exhibition and simultaneously created the model for this reproduction, the original of which appeared as number 18 in the 1920 exhibition catalogue. The bowl’s Puritan simplicity of design appealed to adherents of both the Colonial Revival fad of the 1920s and its contemporaneous avant-garde stylistic opposite, Art Deco, and became even more popular throughout the period of mid-century modernism; Tiffany’s copy thus remained in production for at least thirty-five years. Tiffany eventually sold the Palmer collection to Edsel Ford, where it formed the core of the silver collection at the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Pointe, Michigan.

Rene Portocarrero, one of the most important Cuban artists of the 20th century, advocated a national art that drew its inspiration from its Afro-Cuban roots. A native of Havana, Portocarrero was a prodigious autodidactic; he was a painter, sculptor, ceramicist, scene designer, muralist and illustrator, whose scope and range of art in the Caribbean rivals that of Pablo Picasso in Europe. He exhibited throughout the Caribbean, the Americas and Europe, making close acquaintances with Fidel Castro and Peggy Guggenheim. He produced copious public works for Cuban prisons, hospitals and theaters. His commitment to improving lives through communal art was recognized by the Bulgarian and Polish Governments, as well as earning him many prestigious honors, including a seat on UNESCO’s International Association of Fine Art, the “Felix Varela” prize from Cuba, and the “Aztec Eagle” - Mexico’s highest award. Portocarrero’s works are conserved worldwide in leading institutions and museums, including paintings of Santa Barbara that resemble the one offered here.

855

855 Rene Portocarrero (Cuban, 1912‑1985) “Santa Barbara”, 1963 oil on academy board signed and dated lower right. Framed. 19‑1/4” x 9‑1/2” Provenance: Private collection, Florida. $6,000‑$9,000 “The religious work of Portocarrero has an enriching element in its paradoxical character, with angels with atrophied wings that will make the celestial flight difficult, but not impossible” --Ramon y Sergio Cernuda

Santa Barbara was a saint/spirit that Portocarrero visited numerous times. Her feast day, December 4, is one of the most important festival days in Cuba, as it is also shared with Chango, the Yorubian Lord of Fire and Lightening, a semidivine intermediary between God and human beings. In the 16th century, when the Spanish shipped enslaved Yorubians and Nigerians from West Africa to the new world, they were forced, among other indignities, to convert to Catholicism. From indentured labor and faith, the indigenous spirits (orichas) became syncretized with the saints, allowing various West African tribes to preserve elements of their cultural beliefs in a hostile environment. Spanish Colonial planters mistakenly characterized the worship of indigenous gods under the guise of saints as “Santeria” - a deviant form of prayer that privileges idolatries of saints over that of Christ. Following the Cuban Revolution, Santeria was revitalized as a recognized religion of Cuba and spread beyond the Spanishspeaking Caribbean. Santa Barbara was widely revered. Her life of suffering and perseverance became a metaphor for enslaved personages. Incarcerated in a tower for having converted to Christianity, she remained true to her faith through trials of torture in which her own father tried to burn her at the stake, and was struck down by lightning when that failed. As the patron saint of artillerymen, military engineers, miners and others who work with explosives, she embodied revolution and empowerment. In Santeria, Chango the powerful male spirit of lightning, thunder, war and dance, depicted in red and white with a crown, is assimilated with the female saint, becoming a symbol of fertility and rebirth. In this work Portocarrero celebrates the Santa Barbara of Santeria creating a spiritual carnality that beats to the drum of a multicultural Cuba - that a Cuban critic succinctly summarized: “His pen and brush will give us virgins and Santa Barbara, Christ and cathedrals of a baroque vocabulary that is tropical and joyful, where even tragic themes like crucifixions become joyful, with butterflies announcing their resurrection and female angels that delight with their [voluptuous] curves.” References: Sergio Cernuda, Ramon y. “Rene Portocarrero: lo spiritual en su obra.” Cubancuentro.

A native of the Philippines, Tabuena spent most of his adult life in Mexico. He studied architectural drawing at Mapua Institute of Technology and attended the Art Student League, New York and l’Academie de la Grande Chaumiere, Paris. He began painting the rural landscapes of his native region in the 1940s, continuing to work within this genre upon his move to Mexico. His early paintings employed a distinct technique - somewhat reminiscent of Cubism - of interlocking shapes of rich, translucent jewel-tones which merge to create works of multidimensional depth. His slightly nostalgic landscapes, as evidenced by the works presented here as lots 856 and 857, are carefully and brilliantly composed, distilling the setting to its most necessary and basic. Tabuena was the recipient of numerous awards and accolades including the prestigious 2007 Presidential Merit Award from the Philippine Government. 856

by Jodocus Hondius (Flemish/Dutch, 1563‑1612) for a French edition of Mercator’s Atlas, North and South America, hand-colored copper engraved map, published Amsterdam, ca. 1628. Matted, glazed and framed. 14‑3/4” x 19‑3/4” $2,000‑$4,000 Regarded by collectors as one of the most beautiful 17th century maps of the Americas, it was originally engraved by Hondius for the first edition of his Mercatorís Atlas and published for the 1628 French edition. Produced on a stereographic projection, the double folio map delineates a more accurate west coast of South America, yet still retains an enlarged North American continent. Beautifully hand-colored, it exudes the exoticism of the new worlds through the inclusion of fantastic details taken from Theodore DeBryís Grands Voyages (1588) of rare birds, sea monsters and native Brazilians (in the lower left cartouche) gathered around a cauldron preparing and drinking chicha- a fermented beverage made of maize and fruit.

877 “Carta Geografica della Florida nell’ America Settentrionale” by Giambattista Albrizzi (Italian, 1698‑1777) after De L’Isle’s famous 1718 map of the Gulf Coast, copper engraved map with later hand-coloring, published Venice, ca. 1740. Matted, glazed and framed. 13” x 17” $600‑$900 Published by Girolamo Albrizzi, this double-page folio map, engraved after Guillaume de L'Isle's famous rendition, depicts French claims to Florida prior to the treaty of Utrecht (1713) that ceded Spanish America to the Duke of Anjou. De L'Isle revolutionized cartography through a more scientific approach based on astrologically determined latitudes and longitudes. This map, together with De L'Isle's 1718 Carte de la Louisiane, were the first maps to accurately chart the Gulf coast between Florida and Texas and the Mississippi River, and became the source for all succeeding 18th century maps of the lower Mississippi and Texas. In this beautifully hand-colored Venetian edition, the names of the regions and indigenous people are listed in Italian, including Texas, which is identified as Cadodaquio after the Caddo Indians. The fortified cities of St. Augustine, Tampico, Charleston, Philadelphia and the Native American villages of Mahock and Manakin in Virginia are highlighted in red, while small churches demarcate towns. At the bottom, the map title is framed by a handsome allegorical cartouche of the new world with natives hunting African lions and deer beside a coast lined with lush palm trees.

884 After Augustus Kollner (German/American, 1813‑1906) “Saratoga Lake”, ca. 1850 watercolor, gouache, pencil and gum arabic on paper unsigned, titled lower center, frame backing inscribed “re-framed by Jas. B. Goddard/30 Huntington, Boston/June 1919”. Matted, glazed and framed. 8‑3/8” x 12‑1/2” $1,000‑$1,500 This charming view of Saratoga Lake was painted after one of Augustus Kollner’s famous “Views of America” which were printed in a book of lithographs by Goupil, Vibert & Co. in 1848. Kollner, a German-born artist, emigrated to the U.S. in 1839 and settled in Washington, D.C., as a professional draftsman and engraver. During the 1840s he produced numerous watercolor drawings of American scenery while traveling. Fifty-four of these were published and massproduced through the United States and France.

884

Charles W. Burton (act. 1822‑1850), a New York engraver and draftsman, working in the same venue, quite possibly painted this work. Burton, an autodidact, who did not have the formal training that Kollner had, established himself as a draftsman of diminutive ink and watercolor drawings designed for engraved publications. Burton was familiar with Saratoga Springs, a popular weekend resort in the mid-19th century that attracted thousands of tourists, as he was commissioned to illustrate the Piazza of Congress Hall for the city, which was engraved by Thomas Illman in 1848. Other notable commissions were New York City Hall and the U.S. Capital Building. The latter, now conserved at the Metropolitan Museum, typifies Burton’s style, which is strikingly similar in its medium, scale and execution to this one. Both exude extraordinary precision to detail. In both, the figures are dwarfed by their surroundings, executed with a naive use of perspective. The scale of the figures in the fore and backgrounds are confounded and are not relative in size to their environment, creating a multitude of vignettes within the work. Most striking of all is Burton’s unusual use of concentrated gum arabic (the binder in watercolors) as a shading device to create greater tonal depth within the tree foliage in Saratoga Lake. The “View of the Capital Building” employs the same technique along the treelined avenue, and it would appear by the print that the ivy-wrapped columns in the “Piazza of Congress Hall” possessed the same application of gum arabic.

On the Louisiana live oak: “All alone stood it and the moss hung down from the branches, Without any contemplation it grew there uttering joyous leaves of dark green” -Walt Whitman

According to the “Art Notes” column of the Times-Picayune and the Daily Democrat reviews from 1877‑1878, William Henry Buck was an upcoming landscape artist, regularly exhibiting landscapes of Bayou Teche and the Atchafalaya River at W. E. Seebold’s gallery on Canal Street in New Orleans. Critics often compared his handling of the live oak to Walt Whitman’s poetic metaphor of it for the sublime - for spiritual contemplation on the nature of isolation, and the art columnist aptly portended that through Buck’s deft handling of majestic oaks “he is perfecting his manner of tropical scenes... that he will win a lasting reputation we have no doubt.” Two of the reviews locate his paintings of these environs at Oak Lawn Plantation (now Oaklawn Manor, Franklin, Louisiana), while another two describe the plantation geography through the position of the Bayou and River in proximity to Grand Lake. According to a lengthy 1888 real estate advertisement, the plantation “is situated on both sides of Bayou Teche, an affluent [sic] of Atchafalaya river, and has a frontage of three miles on Grand Lake”; the property is on the Morgan’s Louisiana/Texas Railway with a direct steamboat line from New Orleans (the Southern Pacific-Oak Lawn) “that lands at its very doors.” The advertisement further states that Oak Lawn is “one of the most widely known and extensive plantations in Louisiana” with the “most superb private park in the United States... aided by art.” As indicated by the plantation name,

292

the live oaks are its arboreal marvel: “The smaller growth, in its wealth of coloring contrasted with countless magnificent live oaks, many of the branches measuring 150 feet... present a picture never to be forgotten, as nowhere else can it be seen.” As the art reviews suggest, the young Buck was clearly taken with the scenery and the ease with which the Plantation could be accessed by rail and boat, and by all accounts, he frequented the area between the fall of 1877 and the summer of 1878, painting the immense oaks along the banks of Bayou Teche several times. Another landscape of the Bayou exhibited at Seebold’s in the summer of 1878, the same year this painting was executed, bears notable compositional similarity, as does another painting of the Bayou, sold in these rooms on January 20, 2001, as lot 1125. All three exude the finest of Buck’s style - the majestic oaks (framed against hazy golden skies) are the centerpiece of the painting. Ethereally lit from behind, they dwarf terrains with cattle bisected by bayous in a harmony of tertiary blues and green. References: “Art Notes”. Times-Picayune. September 29, 1877. p. 4; Ibid.

She studied with William Merritt Chase and at the Concoran School of Art and Design. Rare for women at the time, she spent seventeen years as a professor of drawing and painting at the University of South Carolina. While there, she earned many accolades, most importantly the inclusion of her painting “Mrs. Barrett of Lick Skilet Gap” in the First National Exhibition of American Art at the Rockefeller Center, New York in 1936. She was also active in Provincetown, Massachusetts and exhibited at the Chicago Art Institute. This fine example of her work interestingly shows influence of Louisiana realist artist Clarence Millet, especially in the superb handling of light.

A native of Massachusetts and long-time resident of New Orleans, William Woodward was an influential member of the American art community as an artist, educator, and preservationist. He attended the recently established Rhode Island School of Design and the Massachusetts Art Normal School, where he first became interested in architecture, before spending several months at the prestigious Academie Julian in Paris. In 1884, Woodward was recruited to Tulane University in New Orleans to create and head the art department; he was to remain at that institution until 1921, when he retired as professor emeritus. During his tenure at Tulane, Woodward helped form Newcomb College, created New Orleans Art Pottery, and founded Tulane University School of Architecture - in addition to supervising the architectural plans of many of the University buildings. Woodward was a leading figure in the preservationist movement, and his participation was crucial to the eventual survival of many historically and culturally significant New Orleans neighborhoods, most notably the Vieux Carre. The two sketchbooks offered here as lots 971 and 972 are exceptional and rare examples of Woodward's work, and reveal the range of his artistic interests - from meticulously composed, detailed portraits to architectural renderings completed in a few, confident pencil strokes. The sketchbooks were completed over a period of time and include a few brief expository notations. They are a fascinating and compelling record of the people, places, and structures which caught the attention of this master draughtsman. References: Robert Hinckley.

Washington each inscribed en verso with the artist’s name, location and date; the Tuskegee classroom photograph is titled, probably in the artist’s hand, “Tailoring”. Each unframed. each 7‑3/8” to 8” x 9‑3/8” to 9‑1/2” $1,000‑$1,500

This collection of photographs represents an extraordinary view of American history, produced by one of the most accomplished photographers of the 20th century. Frances Benjamin Johnston was one of the first women artists to have her own studio. She received multiple magazine commissions for celebrity portraits, and she was the official White House photographer for five administrations from Benjamin Harrison through William Taft, photographing President McKinley just moments before he was assassinated at the 1901 PanAmerican Exposition in New York. After receiving her first camera from George Eastman, a family friend and inventor of the Kodak cameras, she was trained in developing and darkroom techniques by Thomas Smillie, director of photography at the Smithsonian Institute. Johnston had additional art instruction at the Washington Students League and the prestigious Academie Julian in Paris. Education remained a central focus in Johnston’s work. She wrote numerous articles on what women can do with cameras and co-curated an exhibition of women photographers at the 1900 Exposition Universelle. She gained even wider acclaim at the Exposition for her display of photographs of the Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute for African-Americans in Virginia, commissioned by its President Dr. Hollis Burke Frissel. Booker T. Washington, a graduate of Hampton and the President of Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, was so impressed with Johnston’s virtuoso in recording the classrooms and buildings with a sensitivity not seen before that he commissioned her to photograph Tuskegee. These two sepia-toned photographs of students receiving instruction in sewing and furnace maintenance remain stunning chronicles of this series, illustrating the stark contrast in resources between African-American trade schools and the liberal arts curriculum of white school children, seen here in two of the cyanotypes, sculpting clay at their desks after Classical Greek prototypes. The last photograph from Johnston’s service under Theodore Roosevelt, illustrates the interior of the Pan American Union Building- the headquarters for the Organization of the American Sates, erected under the Roosevelt administration on the site of the John Peter Nees Mansion in Washington, D.C. Following the Hampton and Tuskegee commissions, Johnston’s interest in architecture, in a desire to document buildings and gardens that had fallen into disrepair, led her to the American South, where she became a pioneering figure committed to the region’s architectural history, receiving grants and commissions from eight southern states, including Louisiana, where she retired in a home on Bourbon Street. 974 Collection of Five

975 William P. Spratling (American, 1900‑1967) “Two Architectural Views” each pencil, ink and watercolor on paper laid on cardboard the first of Cherokee House and Choctaw Mansion, Natchez, Mississippi; the second of a New Orleans bungalow inscribed at top “To Ethel and Norris Brett...”, each signed lower right. Matted, glazed and framed alike. sight, respectively 9‑3/4” x 8‑1/2” and 6‑3/4” x 9‑3/4” $1,000‑$1,500

Well known for his innovative Mexican silver inspired by Pre-Columbian art, William P. Spratling was also an accomplished architect, who, like Boyd Cruise, recorded New Orleans architecture in his drawings and championed for the preservation of Southern edifices throughout the 1920s while he was an instructor at Tulane University’s School of Architecture. These watercolor drawings are excellent examples of Spratling’s early work. The first view, which can still be seen today thanks to preservation efforts, is of the Cherokee House in Natchez at 217 High Street, built in 1794‑1810 with a side view of the ionic columns and grillwork on the front portico of the Choctaw Mansion constructed in 1836 for Joseph Neibert at 310 N. Wall Street. Both structures are architectural marvels that seamlessly blend Greek Revival elements with the Federal-style form established by Arlington and Rosalie. The second painting of an early 20th-century Californiastyle bungalow, nestled between mid-19th-century doublegallery homes (with their covered two-story galleries framed and supported by columns), is no less impressive, as it captures the architectural diversity characteristic of the Mid-City and Uptown areas of New Orleans. This work may be a 1928 wedding gift or a good-bye token in 1931 presented to Spratling’s fellow artists and friends, the Bretts. Ethel (1894‑1994), the Director of the Petit Vieux Carre, and her husband, Norris (1894‑1959), an actor and tire salesman were active in the arts community and also participated in preservation efforts enacted through the School of Architecture and the Arts and Crafts Club. From the time of their marriage until 1930, the Bretts lived with Ethel’s mother on St. Charles Avenue in the eponymous home known today as the Circle Bar, one of the oldest stillstanding structures at Lee Circle. From 1935 until Norris’ death in 1959, the Bretts lived in the 500 block of South Peters Street. Perhaps the California-style bungalow is one of the homes the Bretts rented in 1931 when Spratling left New Orleans to set up a silver workshop in Taxco, Mexico.

996 Attributed to William Henry Buck (Norwegian/Louisiana, 1840‑1888) “Italian Domestics Gathering Water from a Roman Fountain Amid a Ruin” oil on millboard unsigned. Presented in a W. E. Seebold’s frame with brass artist plaque and partial label en verso. 7‑1/2” x 10‑1/4” Provenance: Collection of the Honorable Robert E. Brumby (1884‑1966), Franklin, Louisiana; thence by descent. $1,200‑$1,800

William Henry Buck left Scandinavia seeking exploration and fortune in the new world and tried his hand at many styles as he made his way down the eastern seaboard and Mississippi. Even after he established himself as a landscape painter in Louisiana in the mid-to-late 1870s, he still executed rogue portraits, seascapes, hunt and daily life scenes, even Classicalstyle hand-cut silhouettes. W. E. Seebold(‘s) was one of the first major fine art and antiques galleries, framers, and art supply retailers in the city that showcased the newest and finest fashions and inventions. In a lengthy 1877 review of Seebold’s in the Times-Picayune, the “art note” columnist first commends two landscapes on exhibit by Buck and then boasts that Mr. Seebold has recently introduced the photogravure “novelty” to the city of New Orleans, which was “first employed by Messrs. Goupil in Paris to transfer the compositions of the Salon to the volumes of engravings, which they annually exhibited.” Much of the Salon rage was for the Realist movement, which often married Grand Tour landscapes with Italian genre scenes,

308

creating a great demand for Italian peasants (washwomen in particularly) before Classical ruins, redolent of the scene pictured here. Hubert Robert, a French academician, was one of the leading painters of this style, exhibiting widely at the Salon. So popular were these images that etchings, through the new photogravure process, were made after them. It is through Seebold’s that Buck encountered these works, and likely painted this piece after a photogravure etching. The Seebold’s frame and millboard are also indicative of Buck. Aside from canvas, Buck mainly painted on millboard (pressed mill waste and paste). In the 19th century, millboards and nascent academy boards were the preferred medium for pleinair landscape artists, as they were cheap, lightweight and did not damage easily in transit. Seebold’s retailed millboards; the ones Buck used (likely from Seebold’s) were primed in gray to prevent the board surface from becoming frayed and abraded. Reference: “Art Notes”. Times-Picayune. Sept. 29, 1877. p. 4.

A. Remington, Gleanings of Low Voltage Technique. Chicago, 1932. h. 44”, w. 22‑1/2”, d. 13‑1/2” Provenance: Dr. Melvin D. Roberts (1879‑1957), Hancock, Michigan. $800‑$1,200 The 20th century ushered in the electrical age - with patented light bulbs and automobiles came electromedical cures and executions. With improved electric generators, galvanism (static electricity generation) bloomed from nascent electric shock treatments in Parisian insane asylums to the allAmerican cure. George Beard’s and Alphonse Rockwell’s 1871 book on the fantastic medical uses of electricity was re-published in more than ten editions that culminated with the electric chair and the X-ray exhibited at the World’s Columbian Exposition in 1893 and the Pan-American Exposition in 1901 by McIntosh Electric and Victor Electric, respectively. Both companies went on to produce the “Medical Apparatus” console featured here. They boasted in numerous advertisements and publications, including the book offered with this lot, that positive and negative galvanic currents cured everything from gout and impotency to hysteria of the stomach and flat feet through polarized frequencies. By the late 1930s, electrotherapy was applied to the brain to alleviate severe depressions through the triggering of brief seizures. Many famous personages in the annals of history were the recipients of these electrical probes in a growing age of psychotherapy enlightenment.

Meet Tiffany, the original Blue Dog (1968-1980), who was later resurrected as the medium of Cajun lore-the "loup garou" (werewolf). The fickle terrier/spaniel mix chewed up furniture and terrorized neighbors, but remained "loyal as the day was long" and kept Rodrigue company at nights in his studio. Tiffany lived on in memoriam as the artist's muse. Rodrigue, intent on preserving Cajun culture and traditions in the growing wake of globalization, had endeavored for years to capture the haunting essence of the loup-garou tale that adults told children to frighten them into good behavior. The loup-garou, derived from the French "rougarou" werewolf of the Middle Ages, devoured Catholic sinners, who failed to keep the Sabbath holy or observe the rules of Lent. Passed down through generations of French settlers in Louisiana, the loup-garou was syncretized with Acadian geography, so that it became more dog-like and

roamed sugar cane fields and cemeteries and swamps laden with live oaks, chasing errant individuals and casting evil spells on others. Tiffany's temperament, her white coating, which appeared blue in the moonlight, and furry tufts that framed her large bat-like ears, became the inspiration for Rodrigue's incarnation of the loup-garou, which has continued to evolve into a metaphor of the artist. Sometimes, it becomes the Blue Dog Man sporting a tuxedo, while other times, as Wendy Rodrigue noted "….its meaning shifts like the moods of an artist. After several years as a scary phenomenon sporting red eyes and spooky settings, the Blue Dog changed. At one point it became the ghost of Tiffany lost and searching for her master."

1067 Jose-Maria Cundin (Spanish/Louisiana, b. 1938) “Rosita”, 1976/77 polyester resin sculpture on a carved white oak and painted wood base. sculpture h. 33‑1/2”, overall h. 48‑1/2”, w. 19”, d. 16‑1/4” Provenance: Purchased from the artist; Private collection, Houston, Texas. $12,000‑$18,000 The rotund, woebegone figure of Rosita Camargo is one of Jose Cundin’s most recognizable characters, and was a favorite of the artist, appearing frequently in his work of the 60s and 70s. According to Cundin, Rosita - often accompanied by her faintly villainous, plump cohorts - is a foil for the foibles of humanity, allowing the artist to cleverly explore with his characteristic sharp sense of humor the more dastardly and dim facets of the human condition. The near life-sized (for Rosita!) sculpture of the “beatnik darling” of the Quarter presented here reveals the exaggerated facial features, idiosyncratic clothing, and grand emotional gesture most closely associated with the character. It is composed of acrylic resin over actual clothing, shoes, hat and hair, with prosthetic eyes. It is unusual for a Cundin sculpture of this depth, caliber and iconic significance to be offered at auction.

$1,800‑$2,500 The Man o’ War cup, named after the stallion widely regarded as one of the greatest racehorses of all time, is a solid gold cup designed by Tiffany & Co. for Abe Orpen, manager of Kenilworth Park, Ontario. The cup was presented to Man o’ War’s owner, Samuel D. Riddle, after the stallion defeated Sir Barton, first winner of the Triple Crown, in a highly-touted match race in 1920. Riddle’s widow donated the cup to the Saratoga Race Course in 1936, where it has been presented to the winner of the Travers Stakes (the 3rd ranked race for American threeyear-olds after the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes) every year thereafter by a member of the Riddle family. The gold cup is retained by Saratoga and the new winner added to the list inscribed on the trophy, but the owner is presented a smaller silver gilt copy, of which the present lot is an example. It was presented to Hill River Stable, owner of Eurasia, who won the 1943 Travers Stakes ridden by jockey Steve Brooks in 2:03:80. The piece is marked with Tiffany’s World War II “star” mark, indicating that it was made from domestically produced silver after April 17, 1943.

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

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.

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.

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

(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.

(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

(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.

(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.

(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.

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