94 ROBERT BATEMAN (1930– ) By the Roadside - Horned Larks acrylic on board 24 x 35 ¾ inches signed lower left: Robert Bateman“Almost all our elm trees have been wiped out by Dutch elm disease, and soon all our farm fencelines will be made of metal and will be put up entirely by machines. The older fencelines have individuality and personality – and they are primarily the product of manual labor. Wood fences are also friendly to wildlife, providing nesting places for birds and other animals. The fence in By the Roadside – Horned Larks is actually a transitional fence with elements of both old and new technologies. It is made of wooden posts, rails and some wire, and was built in the days when farmers were largely self-sufficient and relied almost entirely

on local materials for building. With the advent of ‘industrial’ agriculture, farmers have come to depend increasingly on expensive machines, pesticides and fertilizers – which look efficient until their environmental cost is factored in. Along with these changes, the old spirit of community is vanishing. So an old fenceline is not just something I find aesthetically pleasing, it represents a whole way of life that has been virtually lost.” –Robert Bateman PROVENANCE: Private Collection, Redlands, CA LITERATURE: Robert Bateman, Robert Bateman: An Artist in Nature, Random House, New York, NY, 1990, illus. p. 90 $6,000 – $9,000

164 MARTIN GRELLE (1954– ) Wedding Preparations acrylic and oil on canvas 60 x 50 inches signed lower left: (cross) MARTiN GRELLE © 2009 CA verso: titled, signed, dated “The idea for this painting came from reading a passage in George Bird Grinnell’s book on the Cheyenne Indians, volume 1. This paragraph is a small part of his description of wedding activities: ‘When the girl set out she was dressed in fine new clothing, but after she had been taken into her mother-in-law’s lodge, the sisters or cousins of her husband took her to the back of the lodge, removed the clothing that she wore, and dressed her in new clothing they had made, combing and rebraiding her hair, painting her face, and hanging about her various ornaments as gifts.’ I have taken artistic license on one part of the painting – as I have shown her to have a red ribbon wrap on her braided hair. Traditionally, Cheyenne women did not wrap their braids, but I thought it added an extra interaction between the girl and her helper, who has the ribbon in her hands and is preparing to wrap the second braid – and I considered it as part of the ‘ornaments’ given as gifts.” –Martin Grelle PROVENANCE: From a Private Collection $150,000 – $250,000 — 74 —

180 G. HARVEY (1933–2017) Good Wage Wranglers oil on canvas 30 x 50 inches signed lower right: G. Harvey- © verso: titled and signed Gerald Harvey Jones, known as G. Harvey, was born in 1933 in San Antonio, Texas. Harvey grew up hearing his grandfather’s stories about ranching and driving cattle across Texas in the frontier days, so for him the American West was more than a distant past but rather a vibrant heritage he felt directly connected to. Early on Harvey developed an interest in sketching and drawing, and by the time he attended college at North Texas State University he had followed that early interest into a talent for oil painting. Following graduation, Harvey taught at University of Texas, Austin.

Realizing that nights and weekends were not enough time for him at the easel, Harvey left teaching in 1963 to dedicate his full energy to a fine art career. Just two years later, Harvey’s career truly took off when he was featured in the Grand National Exhibition in New York and won the New Master’s Award from the American Artists’ Professional League.

Shortly thereafter, President Lyndon B. Johnson discovered Harvey’s work and instantly became a collector.

In addition to landscapes and genre scenes from the American West, Harvey also drew inspiration from the rich history of Europe, painting street scenes from a time when horse’s hooves still clattered on the cobblestones. Regardless of the subject, all of Harvey’s work is marked by his dramatic use of light and contrast and his skillful and trademark impressionistic style. G. Harvey’s paintings and sculpture transcend time, cultural, and geographical boundaries making him one of the most broadly appealing artists of this era and placing his name at the forefront of early twenty-first century American art. His original works are in the collections of major corporations, museums, the United States Government, and private collections throughout the world.

While Harvey’s subjects may appear disparate, from charming cobblestone lined avenues to cowboys trudging through snow, they are united by one common theme. Harvey discusses this unifying inspiration, saying, “Transition has also been a theme in my art. I’m drawn to eras when people were confronted with change – challenged to use change as a positive force in their lives.”

193 CARL RUNGIUS (1869–1959) Wyoming Elk, ca. 1910 oil on canvas 30 x 46 ¼ inches signed lower right: C. Rungius lower left: © C.R. Despite being one of the most famous painters of North American wildlife, Carl Rungius was born in Rixdorf near Berlin, Germany, in 1869. Rungius developed an early interest in studying and hunting wild animals, due in large part to the influence of his father and grandfather, both amateur naturalists and taxidermists. At a young age Rungius also showed a talent for drawing, and pursued his formal artistic training in Berlin at the Berlin Art School, the Academy of Fine Arts, and the School of Applied Arts. Following his education, Rungius began his career as a romantic painter in Germany.

As fortune would have it, in 1894 Rungius’s uncle invited him to travel to Maine for a hunting trip. It was then that Rungius’s passion for hunting big game and painting truly came together, as he found his inspiration for both in the wildlife of North America. Enchanted, Rungius spent a summer hunting in Wyoming before moving permanently to New York in 1897.

Rungius’s studio in New York allowed him easy access to the art scene of New York City as well as the wilderness of the Northeast and the Canadian Rockies. In 1904 Rungius traveled the Yukon with Charles Sheldon, and in 1910 he traveled to Banff, Alberta for the first time. In Banff Rungius found the ideal location for painting and hunting, particularly with the prevalence of the bighorn sheep in the region. Rungius built a studio there in 1921, nicknamed ‘The Paintbox,” and visited annually until his death in 1959.

Likely painted around 1910, Wyoming Elk depicts a large elk coming down a hillside, traversing the canvas from right to left. Consistent with his work from this period, the brushwork is tighter and less impressionistic than Rungius’s later work. The contrast of the bright sunlight and color in the upper left corner serves to create a sense of drama when set against the cooler, darker, fore and midgrounds that make up the majority of the composition.

194 THOMAS MORAN (1837–1926) Cascade Falls, Yosemite, 1905 oil on canvas 30 ¼ x 20 inches signed lower right: Moran.1905. verso: titled, signed, dated While Thomas Moran was born in Bolton, England in 1837, he emigrated to the United States with his family in 1844, and spent the majority of his career creating and advocating for American art. Moran developed an early interest in art, and often frequented the museums and galleries in Philadelphia. At sixteen, Moran secured an apprenticeship with a wood engraving firm, where he worked for three years before transitioning his focus to painting and drawing under the guidance of local painter James Hamilton. It was through Hamilton that Moran gained exposure to the work of J.M.W. Turner, who would prove to be a major inspiration for Moran. Moran subsequently encountered Turner’s work in person, when he visited Europe in 1861.

Over the next decade, Moran exhibited at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, taught at the Philadelphia School of Design for Women, and worked as an illustrator for Scribner’s Monthly and other publications. The turning point in Moran’s life and career came in 1871 when he accompanied geologist Ferdinand Vandeveer Hayden on his geological survey of the Yellowstone region. Moran’s drawings and watercolors from this survey inspired Congress—leading them to purchase one of his resulting oil paintings and to declare Yellowstone the world’s first national park in 1872. Later that same year, Moran traveled to Yosemite for the first time. Fresh off his trip to Yellowstone, Moran found the late-season waterfalls to be lack-luster and underwhelming. As a result, he created only a few sketches, which resulted in a handful of aquarelles and chromolithographs.

In the summer of 1904, Moran made his second trip to Yosemite, when he travelled through the region by horseback. What failed to inspire him the first time, proved to spark his interest the second. Moran drew great inspiration from the region on this trip, sketching extensively. He also likely learned of the campaign by John Muir and the Sierra Club to add the Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove into the newly created Yosemite National Park, which at the time did not include these areas. As a result, Moran created large canvases of many iconic, and at the time unprotected, areas of the valley including Vernal Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and of course Cascade Falls.

A product of this second foray into Yosemite, Moran painted Cascade Falls, Yosemite upon his return to the studio in 1905. Driven by Muir’s mission to see the region preserved, Moran channeled his passion for the American landscape and his ethereal and romantic style into the creation of this work. Flanked by stoic trees and boulders, Moran places the dramatic falls in the center of the composition but presents the viewer with the side of the falls, rather than a straight-on approach. The still water of the foreground provides a perfect foil for the churning cascade that fills the center of the canvas. Complimenting the falls themselves, Moran gives just as much attention to the castoff and spray, which draws the viewer in by creating a compelling v-shaped composition. Created with the intent to inspire rather than replicate, Moran places more emphasis on romance than stringent reality. He writes, “I place no value upon literal transcriptions of Nature. My general scope is not realistic; all my tendencies are toward idealization. Of course, all art must come through Nature: I do not mean to depreciate Nature or naturalism, but I do believe that a place as a place, has no value itself for the artist only so far as it furnishes the material from which to construct a picture.”

204 OSCAR E. BERNINGHAUS (1874–1952) The Lookout oil on canvas 24 x 30 inches signed lower left: O.E. BERNINGHAUS Oscar E. Berninghaus, born in 1874 in St. Louis, Missouri, displayed his inclination for art at an early age. At sixteen he quit school to work for a lithography company and later attended night classes at the School of Fine Arts in St. Louis. In 1899, the Denver and Rio Grand Railroad hired him to travel west to sketch and produce watercolors of the mountain scenery, people, and villages. It was during this journey that Berninghaus encountered the magic of Taos, the Pueblo, and its Native inhabitants.

Berninghaus continued to return to Taos almost every summer for the next twenty-five years. As early as 1905, his work received critical acclaim in the newspapers with some writers comparing him to Frederic Remington. In the summer of 1915, Berninghaus co-founded the famous Taos Society of Artists along with Joseph Henry Sharp, Bert Geer Phillips, Ernest Blumenschein, E.I. Couse, and Herbert Dunton.

In 1925, Berninghaus moved permanently to New Mexico where he continued to paint in Taos until the time of his death. For the majority of his career, Berninghaus painted from life—live models and plein air landscapes. However, towards the end of his career the people and terrain of Taos became so ingrained in the artist’s mind that he could paint just as accurately from memory as from life. A cornerstone of the Taos community, Berninghaus earned the trust and respect of Pueblo members, and as a result was given unprecedented access to the kivas and sacred dances. This intimate relationship between artist and subject lends an unshakeable authenticity to Berninghaus’ work.

While Russell and Remington viewed the cowboy or the Plains Indians as hallmarks of American art and identity, Berninghaus saw his work and that of his contemporaries in Taos as something undeniably American. He described this, saying “I think the colony in Taos is doing much for American art. From it I think will come a distinctive art, something definitely American—and I do not mean that such will be the case because the American Indian and his environment are the subjects. But the canvases that come from Taos are as definitely American as anything can be.” A departure from Berninghaus’ pueblo subjects, The Lookout is a rare example of a western work from the artist.

The end result is a series of larger than life historical characters rendered in a contemporary style.

After painting the subject on an aluminum substrate, I create an EPS vector file in order to have the LED neon tubes created to exact specifications. Once the neon pieces are created, they are attached to the painted substrate and connected to a dimmable, commercial grade transformer hidden inside each painting’s custom-built frame. This piece depicts Jim Hawkins, who was one of the toughest Texas Rangers in the late 1800’s.

217 JOHN CLYMER (1907–1989) In the Dead of Winter oil on board 24 x 36 inches signed lower left: John Clymer verso: titled Widely recognized for recording western history and wildlife in his art, John Ford Clymer was born in Ellensburg, Washington in 1907. Clymer developed an interest in art from a very early age. Following high school, he moved to Vancouver, British Columbia, where he worked as an illustrator and attended art school. In 1930, Clymer attended the Wilmington Academy in Delaware, where he encountered and found inspiration from the illustrator and western artist, N.C. Wyeth. In 1932, Clymer married his childhood sweetheart Doris and moved to Westport, Connecticut to join the artist gathering there.

During World War II, Clymer and illustrator Tom Lovell joined the Marines. Stationed in Washington State, they spent their time painting war illustrations. After the war Clymer decided to create historical paintings. In order to accurately depict the West in his work, Clymer researched and traveled throughout the region. In 1966, Clymer and his wife settled down in the quiet western town of Jackson, Wyoming, to better pursue Clymer’s interest in painting local western people and regional wildlife.

Clymer received many honors, including the National Academy of Western Art’s Prix de West Award and the National Museum of Wildlife Art’s Rungius Medal. His hometown of Ellensburg, Washington established the Clymer Museum. Clymer’s family generously donated the contents of his studio to the National Museum of Wildlife Art in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

A skilled illustrator and storyteller, Clymer brought his narrative talent to In the Dead of Winter. In this painting Native American hunters pursue bison through deep snow under a winter sun. Depicted with delicate beauty, the scene itself is one of desperate survival.

The hunters have the advantage, snowshoes elevating them above the drifts, while the bison desperately attempt to flee. Clymer softens the severity of the subject through his treatment of the stunning landscape—presenting the viewer with winter’s dichotomy.

220 ROBERT BATEMAN (1930– ) Antarctic Evening - Humpback Whales acrylic on canvas 48 x 60 inches signed lower right: Robert Bateman 2000 © “It was one of those magical evenings – unplanned and unforgettable. Our ship had been visiting the fascinating capes and bays of the Antarctic Peninsula. We had witnessed spectacular landscapes of mountains and glaciers and had crammed in visits to clamoring penguin colonies populated with tens of thousands of birds.

Normally, after dinner, the vessel would be steaming on to the next day’s destination but the timing in this case meant that we had a few hours to spare. The sea was like glass and on the spur of the moment the expedition leader decided to lower the Zodiac inflatables so that those who wished it could have a peaceful, almost private tour among the ice floes and bergs. The long polar twilight turned the sky and sea into a lavish and changing display of color. The ocean was so calm it was as if we were suspended in an undulating spectrum. The great bergs towered above us as sculpted mountainous islands from some ancient fairy tale.

These waters are rich in nourishment not only for penguins and seals but for numerous whales. Giant humpback whales would be mere specks in comparison. We had been seeing humpbacks almost daily so I added a couple of the world’s largest animals as contrast for the majestic ice scape; we did not actually see them that evening but they could have been there. The next day we had the thrill of a lifetime when one ‘spy hopped’ a few feet from our Zodiac. Its encrusted face poised vertically, examining us for several long moments.” –Robert Bateman PROVENANCE: Private Collection, Redlands, CA EXHIBITED: Robert Bateman: Diversities, Everard Read, Johannesburg, South Africa, 2000 LITERATURE: Robert Bateman, Robert Bateman: Diversities, Everard Read, Johannesburg, South Africa, illus. p. 22 $50,000 – $75,000 — 115 —

In terms of livability I would tend to favor the less violent aspects of animal behavior but many people who collect my paintings respond to the action arrangements which are usually included in any representative group work.

One might liken this interest in the baroque interplay of animal forms to the attitude of music lovers to the virtuoso embellishments of a soloist. It is regarded as a proof of skill. And, truth to tell, it is…What I am trying to suggest is that all aspects of animal activity deserve the attention of the artist.” –Bob Kuhn PROVENANCE: The Artist From the Collection of Judson Charles Ball and Nancy Sue Ball Private Collection, Nashville, TN $50,000 – $75,000

JOHN COLEMAN (1949- )

John Coleman is a multi-faceted artist working proficiently in the genres of sculpture, oils and charcoal. His love of history and philosophy have enabled him to develop a profound connection to the subjects he portrays. Born in Southern California, Coleman studied at the Art Center for Design in Los Angeles. Sculpting full time since 1994, John was voted into professional membership of The National Sculpture Society of New York in 1999 and joined the Cowboy Artists of America in 2001.

Always an advocate for traditional art, John was pleased to demo at the first FACE event held in Miami Beach, Florida in 2018. The Fine Art Conference & Expo (FACE) was a gathering of talented artists from around the world whose purpose is to bring focus back to traditional art.

In discussing his artistic process, Coleman says, "I am fascinated how music can convey a mood without lyrics and have often thought sculpture lends itself to that idea. I have always loved history and mythology and feel they are the lyrics to my sculpture; the musical interpretation that engages the emotions. Just as music has a beginning, a middle and an end, so does sculpture. I like to tell stories in my work using metaphors that help explain who we are and from where we came. Creating an object means little to me unless I can portray an underlying emotion or analogy. Each piece tells a story in the three dimensional, a visual mythology written by my hands and spiritual imagination, somehow linking us to the past and bringing us to a greater understanding of our ancestors."

John served as president of the Cowboy Artists of America and has served on the board of The National Sculpture Society in New York City. In his hometown of Prescott, AZ John has served on the board of The Preservation Commission, The Phippen Museum and is a current board member of The Granite Mountain Hotshot Memorial Partnership.

224 JOHN COLEMAN (1949– ) Mystic Smoke and Sacred Arrows bronze 35/35 35 x 16 x 15 inches inscribed lower front: “MYSTIC SMOKE AND SACRED ARROWS” JOHN COLEMAN CA © 2010 35/35 “Mystic Smoke and Sacred Arrows was inspired by a Mandan ritual George Catlin witnessed in the 1830’s. By draw, a group of young men were chosen to take turns staking their personal medicine and reputation on their ability to bring rain to the drought stricken Mandan people. Once this process started, there was no end until the rain came.

This type of ceremony was performed by other tribes as well; the use of sweet grass and sage burned to create a smudge or mystic smoke that carried their prayers to the Great Spirit was not uncommon.

In the ceremony that Catlin witnessed, the young mens’ techniques varied with the exception of the use of smoke. After several days, the man who was successful by using the mystic smoke and a sacred arrow pierced the clouds, bringing an end to the drought.” –John Coleman PROVENANCE: From a Private Collection $20,000 – $30,000

225 JOHN COLEMAN (1949– ) Wahktageli, Big Soldier bronze 17/35 30 x 14 x 11 inches inscribed center verso: WAHKTAGELI THE BIG SOLDIER BODMER-CATLIN SERIES JOHN COLEMAN CA © 2005 17/35 “Wahktageli, also known as Big Soldier to the Missouri traders, was a Yankton (Nakota) Sioux Chief who was over six and a half feet tall. About 60 years old when Bodmer painted his portrait in 1833, Big Soldier posed for two days and smoked the pipetomahawk he was holding from time to time.

I was inspired by this painting not only because of his unusual height, but also because of the early headdress Big Soldier was wearing. Made from the long feathers of birds of prey they were tied to his hair and presented an image very different from the more contemporary fashion seen in photography after the 1870’s.” –John Coleman PROVENANCE: From a Private Collection $15,000 – $25,000 — 120 —

Gall led some of the early charges and it is said that Crazy Horse led the decisive charge that killed Custer.

Although Sitting Bull did not participate in the battle, it was his dream of a great victory during a vision quest that brought the Indians together at Little Bighorn. I was told by my guide at the Memorial Site of the many advantages that the Indians had over the Cavalry.

Most notable I think was the repeating Winchesters possessed by the Indians, like the one Crazy Horse is holding, as opposed to the Cavalry’s single shot rifles. In contrast to that, it is said that Gall carried only his axe into battle; as a way, perhaps, of avenging the death of his family who were killed by the Cavalry at an earlier date.” –John Coleman PROVENANCE: From a Private Collection $80,000 – $120,000

230 JOHN COLEMAN (1949– ) Iron Sharpens Iron bronze 35/35 14 x 10 x 11 inches inscribed lower front: “IRON SHARPENS IRON” © 2008 JOHN COLEMAN CA 35/35 “In the culture of the Plains Indians some 150 years ago, a boy would be introduced to the bow and arrow very early in his life. Helping him to understand the rudimentary process of correctly fitting the arrow to the bow, a father kneels over his young son and the scene is that of bonding and affection between the two. As my sculpture depicts this event, it also lends itself to an even bigger story.

The deeper side is that the bow and arrow represent food and protection for the whole tribe. For these early Indians, the process of mentoring related directly to the survival and prosperity of the people. Together, this very young boy and his father create equilibrium where the skill and knowledge of the boy will not only impact the teacher, but the rest of the tribe as well.

For in this sculpture, the boy represents the future, his father and mentor the present, here they are equals: Iron Sharpens Iron.” –John Coleman PROVENANCE: From a Private Collection $4,000 – $6,000

Pachtuwa-Chta had been living peacefully with the Mandan. Described as a tall, handsome man, Pachtuwa-Chta was characterized as someone who couldn’t be counted on and described as a man who had killed many white men. He posed for Bodmer wearing a beautiful red buffalo robe and heavily beaded leggings and moccasins and carried in the crook of his arm a gunstock type war club. In exchange for his portrait, Pachtuwa-Chta accepted a picture of a bear in which Maximilian painted the bear and Bodmer provided the background.” –John Coleman PROVENANCE: From a Private Collection $15,000 – $25,000 — 125 —

Some of my favorite historic Native American imagery includes pictures of a warrior, dressed in regalia associated with doing battle, and is also holding what we consider today to be a symbol of femininity; the parasol. Seeing this always makes me smile, but when you understand the practicality of portable shade for a man living on the Plains, and that some of these men were very flamboyant, it makes a lot of sense. The perfect vehicle I felt to explore my parasol idea was to create a piece depicting a couple from the early 1900’s participating in the annual Crow Fair Parade on the Crow Agency and introducing themselves to their people for the first time as newlyweds.” –John Coleman PROVENANCE: From a Private Collection $15,000 – $25,000

The summer Corn Dance begins in the privacy of the Kiva where the super naturals bestow promises. When the time is right, the dance moves outside to the Plaza.

Taking the dance into the light of day, the promises made in the Kiva for the germination and growth of the crops are made known to the world through the song and gesture of the dancer.

246 HOWARD TERPNING (1927– ) It’s Been a Long Day oil on canvas 24 x 34 inches signed lower right: © Terpning 76 verso: titled and signed Often referred to as the Storyteller of the Native American, Howard Terpning’s realistic paintings are among the most sought after and acclaimed images ever produced of Native American traditions, customs, and history. In his masterfully created historical works, we see his deep dedication to the accurate, compassionate, and insightful depiction of the Native American culture.

Born in Oak Park, Illinois, he attended the Chicago Academy of Fine Art and the American Academy of Art. Terpning then worked in commercial art in Chicago before moving to New York City where he had a successful career as a commercial illustrator for magazines and movie posters.

In 1977, Terpning moved to Tucson, Arizona to document Native American culture and the America West.

Two years later, he was elected to the National Academy of Western Art as well the Cowboy Artists of America.

Over the last four decades, his remarkable career has been recognized with every top award in western art including countless Gold Medals from the Cowboy Artists of America, two Prix De West Purchase Awards from the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum, the Hubbard Award for Excellence and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Autry National Center of the American West.

In It’s Been a Long Day Terpning depicts a Native American leading his horse through the snow. Golden hour shadows flicker across the scene, indicating that they are running out of daylight. Remnants of snow remain on the knees of the man and all the way up to the horse’s belly, proof that it has indeed been a long day and they’ve come a long way.

Nor are there any representations and warranties, express or implied, as to whether the purchaser acquires any copyrights, including, but not limited to, any reproduction rights in any property. Contents of this catalogue are subject to change or supplementation before or during the sale, including the sale of any lot.

2.

Prospective bidders should inspect the property before bidding to determine its condition, size, and whether or not it has been repaired or restored.

3.

A buyer’s premium will be added to the successful bid price and is payable by the purchaser as part of the total purchase price. If paying by cash or check, the purchase price will be the sum of the final bid price plus a buyer’s premium of 19% of the final bid price of each lot up to and including $500,000, 17% of the excess of the final bid price above $500,000, and 14% of the excess of the final bid price above $1,000,000, plus any applicable sales tax, shipping and handling charges.

5.

Except as may be announced by the auctioneer, all bids are per lot, as numbered in the catalogue.

6.

The Jackson Hole Art Auction reserves the right to reject any bid. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer will be the purchaser, subject to reserves.

In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event of doubt as to the validity of any bid, the auctioneer will have the final discretion to determine the successful bidder, cancel the sale, or to reoffer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, the Jackson Hole Art Auction’s sale record shall be final and conclusive. The Jackson Hole Art Auction, in its discretion, may execute orders or absentee bids as a convenience to clients who are not present at the auction; however, the Jackson Hole Art Auction is not responsible for any errors or omissions in connection therewith.

7.

If the auctioneer, in his or her discretion, determines that any bid is below the reserve of the article offered, he or she may reject the same and withdraw the article from sale, and, if having acknowledged an opening or other bid, the auctioneer decides that any advance thereafter is insufficient, he or she may reject the advance.

8.

On the fall of the auctioneer’s gavel, the highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer assumes full risk and responsibility for the offered lot, subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth herein, and is immediately obligated to pay the full purchase price or such parts thereof as the Jackson Hole Art Auction may then require. All sales are final, and there shall be no exchanges or returns. Payment shall be made by cash, check, wire transfer, Visa, MasterCard, or American Express. (See, paragraph 3 above: “If paying by credit card . . .”) In addition to other remedies available to us by law, the Jackson Hole Art Auction reserves the right to impose, from the date of sale, a late charge of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) of the total purchase price, if payment is not made in accordance with the conditions set forth herein.

9.

a.

All property must be removed by the purchaser at his or her expense not later than (10) business days following the sale, and if it is not so removed, (i) a handling charge of 1% of the total purchase price per month from the tenth day after the sale (until its removal) will be payable to us by the purchaser, with a minimum of 5% of the total purchase price due for any property not so removed within 60 days after the sale, and (ii) we may send the purchased property to a public warehouse for the account, at the risk and expense of the purchaser.

b.

If any applicable conditions herein are not complied with by the purchaser, the purchaser will be in default, and in addition to any and all other remedies available to the Jackson Hole Art Auction and its agents and consignors by law, including, without limitation, the right to hold the purchaser liable for the total purchase price, including all fees, charges, and expenses set forth herein, the Jackson Hole Art Auction, at its sole option, may (i) cancel the sale of that, or any other lot or lots sold to the defaulting purchaser, or (ii) resell the purchased property, whether at auction or by private sale, or (iii) effect any combination thereof. The purchaser will be liable for any deficiency, any and all costs, handling charges, late charges, expenses, and commissions of both sales, legal fees, and expenses, collection fees, and incidental damages. In addition, a defaulting purchaser will be deemed to have granted and assigned the property or money to the Jackson Hole Art Auction or its agents and consignors or any of their affiliated companies, and the Jackson Hole Art Auction may retain and apply such property or money as collateral security for the obligations due. The Jackson Hole Art Auction and its agents and consignors shall have all of the rights accorded to a secured party under the Wyoming Uniform Commercial Code. The purchaser of each lot agrees that each lot is unique and that the Jackson Hole Art Auction, in its sole discretion, shall not be required to sell or otherwise seek to mitigate damages should such purchaser fail to pay the total purchase price. Payment will not be deemed to have been made in full until the Jackson Hole Art Auction shall have collected good funds. The Jackson Hole Art Auction reserves the right to hold all purchases pending collection of the total purchase price.

All lots are subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price acceptable of the consignor. In such instances, the Jackson Hole Art Auction may implement the reserve by bidding on behalf of the consignor. In instances where the Jackson Hole Art Auction has an interest in the lot, it may bid up to the reserve to protect such interest. The Jackson Hole Art Auction, or its agents or consignors, may also bid upon other property listed in this catalogue.

10. Jackson Hole Art Auction is the owner of images of each lot offered for sale and may use such images for its own archival purposes, as well as for advertising and publicity in connection with this or future sales by the Jackson Hole Art Auction.

11. Unless exempted by law, the purchaser will be required to pay all applicable state and local sales, gross receipts, and compensation tax. Proof of exemption in the form of a current Non-Taxable Transaction Certificate must be provided at registration. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to pay any applicable compensating use tax of another state on the total purchase price.

12. These Terms and Conditions of Sale, together with the parties’ respective rights and obligations hereunder, shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, without regard to Wyoming rules concerning conflicts of law.

13. Prospective bidders and purchasers agree that, in the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to a sale of property, the party asserting such controversy or claim shall provide written notice thereof to the other party, and that any such controversy or claim not settled within fourteen (14) days of delivery of notice by the other party, including any controversy or claim arising from or relating to the sale, or to these Terms and Conditions of Sale, including the terms of this paragraph, shall be resolved and settled by binding arbitration in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, or such other place upon which the parties may agree, in writing; such arbitration shall be pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect; the award, which shall include costs of arbitration and an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party, shall be final, and the judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

14. The Jackson Hole Art Auction may, in its discretion and at a purchaser’s request, package and ship items as directed by the purchaser. In such event, purchaser agrees to the following conditions: a.

S A LE S TA X A recent Supreme Court ruling has led to changes nationwide regarding sales tax laws. In 2018 the Supreme Court of the United States ruled against Wayfair in favor of the state of South Dakota regarding the state’s right to collect sales tax on online purchases from a business without a physical presence in that state. This decision changed the existing status quo and has created a precedent for other states to collect sales tax from businesses without a physical presence in their state.

The new laws vary from state to state and require all businesses (not just auction houses) to collect sales tax if they meet a given state’s threshold for an economic nexus. An economic nexus is used in place of a physical presence in the state and can be met by either a total sales amount limit into that state or a total number of individual transactions into that state.

Currently the Jackson Hole Art Auction has met the threshold for an economic nexus in the following states: Arizona, Colorado, Connecticut, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. If the purchaser is shipping to any of these states, the Jackson Hole Art Auction is required by law to add the appropriate state and local sales tax to the purchaser’s invoice.

The following states do not currently have sales tax and/or applicable economic nexus laws, and as a result the Jackson Hole Art Auction is not required to collect sales tax from Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, or Oregon.

Due to the variable nature of auction sales, and the small window in which they occur, the Jackson Hole Art Auction does not yet know if the states not listed above will require sales tax collection, as that will be determined by the total dollar amount sold into each state—which cannot be predicted. The Jackson Hole Art Auction will be tracking these totals live during the sale using tax software, and will strive to inform the purchaser at the time of invoicing if sales tax collection is required; however, it may be necessary to bill for sales tax post-sale if the threshold for an economic nexus in the purchaser’s state is met after the purchaser has paid.

Even if the Jackson Hole Art Auction is not required to collect sales tax from the purchaser’s state, unless exempted by law, the purchaser will be required to pay all applicable state and local sales, gross receipts, and compensation tax per the terms and conditions.

If the purchaser has a valid resale certificate, the purchaser will not be required to pay sales tax. Please provide a copy of this certificate at the time of registration for tax compliance.
