part

9 Attributed to Major General Sir Eyre Coote, K.C., Sultan's Medal for Egypt 1801 (Medal of the Order of the Crescent), first class, gold, 54mm, hairlining but otherwise extremely fine; together with another Sultan's Medal for Egypt, third class, gold, 42mm, nearly extremely fine; and a small archive of fascinating documents in support of the attribution, comprising: a contemporary translation of a letter written to Coote by the Ottoman Grand Vizier thanking him for gifts and professing friendship, an envelope addressed to Coote in Malta (possibly the means by which his medal was conveyed to him, and two copies of an Ottoman Turkish passport issued to a later member of the Coote line, in respect of a trading vessel.

Born in 1762, the nephew of Lt. General Sir Eyre Coote (celebrated for his role in operations in India), Eyre Coote was educated at Eton and Trinity College Dublin, before purchasing a commission in the 37th Foot (his uncle's regiment) in 1774. He fought as a Lieutenant and Captain in the American Revolutionary War, and subsequently advanced to Major in the 47th Foot (1783) and Lt. Col. of the 70th Foot (1788). Following the outbreak of war with France in 1793 he commanded light infantry in the West Indies with great distinction. He became a Colonel in 1794 and returned to the West Indies under General Sir Ralph Abercromby in 1795, where he once again distinguished himself, and was made Aide de Camp to King George III. Further active service followed, this time in two expeditions in Northern Europe, together with continuing advances in rank.

Thus, by 1801, Coote was a highly accomplished office with considerable combat experience, and this was the year in which a British force, under the command of Sir Ralph Abercromby, moved to defeat Napoleon's Army of the Orient in Egypt, where they had been stranded in 1798 by Nelson's victory at Aboukir Bay. French possession of Egypt represented a dire threat to British interests in India, and with a European peace in prospect it was vital that they be dislodged before their claim could be enshrined in a treaty. The campaign was also important because it witnessed a resurgence in British military prowess after a disheartening series of defeats. Coote played a prominent part, landing at the head of his Brigade as part of the meticulously planned and executed amphibious assault that initiated operations. In the coming months he discharged his duties with great skill and energy, and at the culmination of the campaign he led his troops in a dashing circuitous assault on Alexandria to help deliver the coup de gras to the French dream of an Egyptian colony. Like many of his peers, he received a gold medal from the Ottoman Sultan, representing what came to be seen as the equivalent of an order of chivalry. As well as two such medals, the lot will include a contemporary translation of a very friendly letter to Coote from the Ottoman Grand Vizier, and an Ottoman envelope addressed to him in Malta, where many officers received their medals.

Provenance: by descent through a branch of the family £12,000­16,000

Born at Plympton St Mary in Devon, 15th December 1867. Entered the service as Boy 2nd Class in H.M.S. Lion, 23rd February 1884. After a promising start the recipient went through a troubled period in the late 1880s, with some time spent in cells. By 1891, however his conduct was again being assessed as ‘Good’ and ‘Very Good’, and he was transferred to H.M.A. Widgeon 15th September 1893, taking part in riverine expeditions in West Africa. He was finally discharged in May 1906. £300­500

A Cape of Good Hope General Service Medal renamed to Private J. Ashford, Cape Police: clasp: Bechuanaland (337 PTE J ASHFORD C. PCE.), engraved, surname unofficially re­engraved, good very fine.

Three medals to Sergeant C. (or G.) Blake, Hampshire Regiment: British South Africa Company Medal, Rhodesia 1896 reverse, clasp: Mahonaland 1897 (3757 CORPL. G. BLAKE. 2/HAMPS.

REGT), good very fine.

A Private J. Ashford appears (crossed out) on the KSA roll for the Cape Police. It is unclear to whom this medal was originally awarded, because the number 337 appears to have been assigned to a Corporal (W.D. Devine) £100­150

The coincidence of battalion and service number suggest that the discrepancy in initials is an error originating in the rolls. Roll for BSA Co Medal indicates service with the mounted infantry.

Served in the 2nd Anglo­Boer war and was killed in action at Magersfontein, 11 December 1899, while advancing at the head of a small party of men. * Lt. Cox was undoubtedly entitled the Khartoum clasp for his Khedive’s medal, and the absence of the clasp is presumed to be a consequence of the issue of his medals being complicated by his death. £400­600

30 The Great War P.O.W. group of four medals to Captain (later Lieutenant­Colonel) Arthur Stewart­Cox, Royal Artillery, who was wounded and taken prisoner during the retreat from Mons, August 1914: 1914 Star and Bar (LIEUT: A. STEWART­COX. R.F.A.); British War Medal 1914­20 and Victory Medal with Mention in Despatches emblem (CAPT. A. STEWART­COX.); War Medal 1939­45, unnamed as issued; together with a mounted group of corresponding dress miniatures, nearly extremely fine, full size medals with replacement ribbons.

Born in 1888, the recipient served with the British Expeditionary Force in France, 1914, and was part of the section of 118th Battery, 26th Brigade Royal Field Artillery which was ordered to support the men of the 2nd Battalion Munster Fusiliers in their celebrated rearguard action at Etreux, 27th August 1914. This tiny force, comprising approximately three and a half companies of the Munsters, two guns from 118 battery, and a handful of others, delayed the advance of an entire German Corps in fourteen hours of fierce fighting, surrendering only when compelled to by the exhaustion of their ammunition.

The artillery were called upon to work their guns with no cover and in close proximity to the enemy, and suffered heavy casualties ­ among them Lieutenant Stewart­Cox, who was wounded and taken prisoner.

32 The historic Great War Military Cross group of medals to Captain (Robert) Anthony Eden, King's Royal Rifle Corps, and Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1955 to 1957: Military Cross, George V; British War Medal 1914­ 20 (CAPT. R.A. EDEN), Victory Medal (CAPT. R. A. EDEN), Jubilee Medal 1935, Coronation Medal 1937, Coronation Medal 1953, the last three unnamed as issued; mounted for wearing and with tailor's copy MID emblem to the Victory Medal, good very fine or better; together with two mounted sets of corresponding dress miniatures, one pre and one post 1953.

Best known as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1955­57, as a young man Robert Anthony Eden was involved in the formation of the 21st Battalion King's Royal Rifle Corps (Yeoman Rifles) during the First World War. He was a member of Eton College Officer Training Corps, and the outbreak of the War had found him eager, like many of his generation, to find a place in a regiment. His brother Jack was killed in action in 1914, and this seems only to have quickened his enthusiasm. His initial efforts were hampered by poor eyesight, but his chance came when a family friend, the Earl of Feversham, set about raising the new battalion. Eden went with the Yeoman Rifles to the Western Front as a junior officer and his early exploits included an abortive trench raid following which he led the hazardous rescue of a dangerously wounded Sergeant. The battalion was deployed to the Somme front in September 1916 where its commander Lord Feversham was killed in action, and his replacement appointed the young Eden as his Adjutant, in which capacity he gave exemplary service. His M.C. was gazetted in June 1917, shortly before he went into action following the detonation of the mine under Messines Ridge at the start of the 3rd Battle of Ypres.

All sources indicate that Eden was not only very brave; but that he was also compassionate and highly principled, with a deeply felt concern and respect for the men under his command. This courageous and intelligent officer went on to have a distinguished career in politics, becoming an opponent of appeasement during the 1930s, and then playing a vital role in Winston Churchill's cabinet during the Second World War. He served as Prime Minister between 1955 and 1957, and it is believed that this is the first time that the medals of a British Prime minister have been offered at auction.

Earlier in 1916 he had also been mentioned in a despatch of Sir John French “for gallant and distinguished services in the field”.

His M.C. action took place 1st September 1916, in Delville Wood, on which day the battalion war diary records an attack, giving few details but mentioning Edge Trench as a focal point. The citation is as follows: “For conspicuous gallantry in action. He led a bomb party with great courage and determination under a very heavy fire. He displayed great gallantry throughout, as he had done on many previous occasions” Lieutenant Hearn survived the war, and retired, receiving a gratuity, 15th April 1919. £1,000­1,500

D.H.

Having previously spent four years in the 1st Bn Cambridgeshire Regiment, he joined the ranks of the Malay States Volunteer Rifles in 1915, before obtaining a commission in the Malay Volunteer Infantry, which he held until 1935. He captained the F.M.S. rifle team in the 1930s, and competed for them at Bisley. On the outbreak of the Second World War he was on leave in England, and he applied for a commission in the army, but was advised that his services were of greater use to the Colonial Service, and so returned to his duties in the East, and was interned as civilian, together with his wife Isobel. He was a published expert on rice, and copy of his book ‘Rice’, is offered with this lot. His O.B.E. (not present in the lot) was gazette in December 1976.

The paintings included in this lot are of particular importance, Prisoners experienced great difficulty in obtaining (and retaining) the even basic necessities of life, and Isobel Grist was usual in being able to produce these paintings and preserve them through her captivity, until her liberation. Her family recount that she secured her watercolour paints mere moments before being marched off to Changi, and that brushes were made for her by other prisoners using human hair. £400­600

41 The scarce Korean War D.F.C. group of eight to Major (later Major General) Arthur George Ernest Stewart­Cox, Royal Artillery: Distinguished Flying Cross, George VI issue (2nd Type), reverse dated 1952; British War Medal 1939­45; General Service Medal 1918­62, George VI (IND IMP), 2 clasps: Palestine 1945­48, Malaya (CAPT.

R.A.); Jubilee Medal 1977; Pingat Peringatan Malaysia Medal, bronze; court mounted, all about very fine or better; together with the corresponding mounted group of dress miniatures; and a Republic of Korea Korean Veteran’s Association Medal, with enamelled suspension brooch.

D.F.C. London Gazette 03/10/1952, “..in recognition of gallant and distinguished flying services in Korea” Major General Stewart­Cox’s long and highly distinguished career began in November 1944 when, as a cadet, he received an emergency commission as 2nd Lieutenant; and by the time of the Korean War he was a Captain. As he advanced in rank he held a number of prestigious appointments, including GOC Wales, Honorary Colonel 289 Commando Battery RA TA, and Colonel Commandant of the Royal Regiment of Artillery ­ a post which he relinquished in April 1990.

In July 1951 Captain Stewart­Cox was deployed to Korea as part of 1903 Independent Air Observation Post Flight RAF, where his role was to pilot Auster aircraft in order to observe and direct artillery fire. His CO, Major R.N.L. Gower, describes him in the following terms, in his recommendation for the D.F.C.: “… his courage and efficiency have been outstanding. He has engaged most successfully a large number of enemy targets with the artillery of the Division and the Corps medium and heavy artillery… A large number of his shoots have been against heavily dug in and AA protected enemy gun positions sited well behind the front lines… Captain STEWART COX has allowed nothing to deter him in the completion of the task of each sortie and has always displayed cool determination and a disregard for his personal safety.”

He goes on to cite the following example of the recipient’s remarkable bravery and professionalism: “Last November he was carrying out a dusk sortie while the division was being attacked in considerable force. Flying over enemy territory he spotted 150 enemy moving forward to attack our own infantry and he immediately called down the fire of the whole Divisional Artillery on to this target. As the enemy advanced up a steep reverse slope the field guns were crested [unable to engage the enemy owing to the topography]. Captain STEWART COX foresaw this situation and had issued fire orders to all mortars that could reach. As a result there was no gap in the engagement of the enemy and his cool and efficient handling of the situation resulted in only 40 enemy surviving the shelling.” £4,000­6,000

A family group of three Memorial Plaques commemorating Lieutenant Colonel A. E. E. Lowry, DSO, MC, West Yorkshire Regiment, and his two brothers, the sons of William Buchanan and Annie Sophia Lowry of Bournemouth: 2nd Lieutenant William Augustine Harper Lowry, India Army Reserve of Officers, was killed in action on the 4th June 1915, at the 3rd Battle of Krithia during the Gallipoli campaign. He was aged 25 years and serving with the 14th King George’s Own Ferozepore Sikhs, which battalion was almost wiped out in the battle, loosing 80% of its officers.

Lt. Col. Auriol Ernest Eric Lowry, 2nd Battalion West Yorkshire Regiment, was killed in France on the 23rd September 1918, aged 25 years, by a machine gun bullet, while visiting the battalion outposts. He had previously been awarded the Military Cross (L.G. 14/01/1916), the Distinguished Service Order (L.G. 26/07/1918), and the French Croix de Guerre with palms. He had served throughout the war on the Western Front and qualified for the 1914 Star.

His D.S.O. citation describes his leadership in “many days of very fierce fighting… [and] counter attacks against overwhelming odds” his force being completely surrounded “he cut his way out, being personally the last to cover the withdrawal” He was then captured but made a hazardous escape, and the citation concludes “His fortitude and indomitable courage throughout a memorable twelve days were beyond all praise”. The period in question was in late March 1918, in the area of Eterpigny and Rosiers, and it was during this time of intense fighting that Auriol’s younger brother Cyril was killed.

Captain Cyril John Patrick Lowry, also 2nd Battalion West Yorkshire Regiment, was killed in action in France on the 25th March 1918, aged 20 years. Most poignantly the battalion war diary is endorsed by his elder brother Auriol, and it describes the incident (a counter attack into machine gun and rifle fire as the enemy were crossing a bridge), and later lists Cyril among the dead.

Provenance: Alfred de Rothschild (1842­1918); Lionel de Rothschild (1882­1942); Edmund de Rothschild (1916­ 2009); The Trustees of Exbury House The 16th century witnessed a period of unprecedented creativity and opulence in the embellishment of arms and armour, as exemplified in the oeuvre of the Negroli family of Milan. Stylistic influences included references to the classical world (all'antica), and an exuberant treatment of broader heroic and fantastical themes (all'eroica). The grotesque mask that surmounts the peak of this helmet, and the form of the foliage on the crest are particularly characteristic of this tradition. Filippo Negroli is regarded as the nonpareil of this magnificent aspect of Renaissance culture. £5,000­8,000 64

SOCIETY OF FINE ART AUCTIONEERS AND VALUERS and the ROYAL INSTITUTION OF CHARTERED SURVEYORS CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS INFORMATION FOR BUYERS

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS

1 . Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’, ‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.

2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed. Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.

3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it. Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable). Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.

4. The purchase price.

The Buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 25% plus VAT @20% (totalling 30% inclusive) on the first £500,000 and 12% plus VAT @20% (14.4% inclusive) thereafter.

5. VAT. (†) indicates that VAT at the current standard rate is payable by the purchaser on the hammer price as well as being an element in the buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation into the UK. The omega symbol (Ω) indicates that the lot has been imported from outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium). Lots which appear without either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium is not recoverable as input tax. (As at 31st December 2020.

Please refer to SOFAA website for updates to the Terms and Conditions).

6. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular, mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is defined in our Conditions of Sale).

7. Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified electrician first.

8. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a) whether an export licence is required for the goods to leave the U.K. and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing the goods in question into the destination country because, e.g. they may contain prohibited materials such as ivory. Charges may be applicable for export licences. Ask us if you need help.

The denial of any permit or licence shall not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale contract or any delay in payment.

9. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before the sale commences and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form. Some form of identification will be required if you are unknown to us. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium. They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve (if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids by telephone or fax.

2. Commission is charged to sellers at the following rates: 15% + VAT on each lot sold for up to £999, 10% + VAT on each lot realising £1,000 and above.

3. Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the sale room by any stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is solely your responsibility.

4. Loss and damage waiver. We are not regulated by the FSA for the provision of insurance to clients. However, we for our own protection assume liability for property consigned to us at lower pre­sale estimate. To justify accepting liability, we make a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price plus VAT or, if unsold, our mid estimate of the hammer price. If the owner of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, they then remain at owner’s risk unless and until the property in them passes to the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 4 is inapplicable.

5. Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider that the lot should be illustrated your permission will usually be asked first. The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us, the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue.

6. Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods may be offered subject to a reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7.

7. We may sell lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the hammer price. If you specifically give us ‘discretion’ we may accept a bid of up to 10% below the formal reserve.

Reserves. (a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve (in which case goods carry the storage and insurance charges stipulated in these Terms of Consignment). (b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent. (c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally.

8. Electrical items. These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls. Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

9. Soft furnishings. The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. We reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense. The rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 and 9 are subject to the provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a copy of which is available for inspection on request.

10. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the contrary.

Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us the sale proceeds. The liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery but we are or ought to have been aware of it.

11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will need to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discuss with our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are envisaged (except cash).

11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is unsold it may with your consent be re­ offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed. Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred. We reserve the right to charge for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.

12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and collected promptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage charges.

12. Withdrawn and bought in items. These are liable to incur a charge of up to 10% plus VAT of the reserve or low estimate on being bought in or withdrawn after being catalogued.

WW102-679 Listing.qxp_Layout 1 27/05/2021 11:31 Page 103

13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold on our Conditions of Sale.

In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods either as owner or agent for the owner. You undertake to compensate us and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking.

14. Authority to deduct commission and expenses and retain premium and interest. (a) You authorise us to deduct commission at the stated rate and all expenses incurred for your account from the hammer price and consent to our right to retain beneficially the premium paid by the buyer in accordance with our Conditions of Sale and any interest earned on the sale proceeds until the date of settlement. (b) You authorise us in our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not later than the close of business on the day of the sale in the case of lots unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these terms apply.

3. INCREMENTS Bidding increments shall be at the auctioneer’s sole discretion.

4. THE PURCHASE PRICE The Buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 25% plus VAT @20% (totalling 30% inclusive) on the first £500,000 and 12% plus VAT @20% (14.4% inclusive) thereafter.

5. VALUE ADDED TAX Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed with a † or Ω. Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing by law at the date of sale and is payable by buyers of relevant lots. (Please refer to ‘Information for Buyers’ for a brief explanation of the VAT position).

6. PAYMENT

15. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make minimum warehousing charge of £2 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If not removed within three weeks we reserve the right to sell them and defray charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to the local authority for disposal.

(a) Immediately a lot is sold you will:

16. Settlement. Subject to our normal trading conditions, payment will be made by BACS or cheque 5 weeks after the sale unless the buyer has not paid for the goods. In this case no settlement will then be made but we will take your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above. You should therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds of sale until the expiry of 28 days from the date of sale.

(c) In line with new legislation we reserve the right to investigate and identify the source of any funds received by us. The completion of the sale of a Lot will be postponed or cancelled at our discretion if further time is needed for investigation, or if you are in breach of your warranties as a buyer, or if we consider the sale to be unlawful or in any way cause liabilities or be detrimental to either Woolley and Wallis or the Seller.

WW102-679 Listing.qxp_Layout 1 27/05/2021 11:31 Page 104

10. COMMISSION BIDS Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its condition, we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall be responsible for any failure to do so save where such failure is unreasonable. Where two or more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.

11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller is the true owner of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the property free from any third party claims.

12. AGENCY The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for default by sellers or buyers.

13. TERMS OF SALE The seller acknowledges that lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the consignor at the time of the entry of the lot.

14. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION (a) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the accuracy of any description applied to a lot.

Prospective buyers also bid on the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph 6 ‘information to buyers’.

22. Prior written consent must be sought by the buyer or any other party for the use of any images, illustrations and written materials produced by or for Woolley & Wallis relating to a lot or sale, including the contents of a catalogue. Copyright for any of the aforementioned will remain the property of Woolley & Wallis, subject to the provisions of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. Woolley & Wallis and the seller make no representations or warranties that the buyer of a lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights to it.

PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS, LITHOGRAPHS, ENGRAVINGS AND PRINTS In accordance with long standing practice in Fine Art Sale Rooms certain terms used in descriptions in the Catalogue have the meanings ascribed to them in the glossary below.

GLOSSARY Any statement as to authorship, attribution, origin, date, age, provenance and condition is a statement of opinion and is not to be taken as a statement of fact.

The Company reserves the right, in forming their opinion, to consult and rely upon any expect or authority considered by them to be reliable. (a) Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by the artist. (When the artist’s forename(s) is not known, a series of asterisks, followed by the surname of the artist, whether preceded by an initial or not, indicates that in our opinion the work is by the artist named. (b) Attributed to Edward Lear: In our opinion probably a work by the artist but less certainly as to authorship is expressed than in the preceding category. (c) Studio of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an unknown hand in the studio of the artist which may be or may not have been executed under the artist’s direction. (d) Circle of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an as yet unidentified but distinct hand, closely associated with the named artist but not necessarily his pupil. (e) Style of ...; Follower of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by a painter working in the artist’s style, contemporary or nearly contemporary, but not necessarily his pupil. (f) Manner of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work in the style of the artist and of a later date. (g) After Edward Lear: In our opinion a copy of a known work of the artist. (h) The term signed and/or dated and/or inscribed means that in our opinion the signature and/or date and/or inscription are from the hand of the artist.

(b) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by auction for purposes of consumer legislation.

(i) The term bears a signature and/or date and/or inscription means that in our opinion the signature and/or date and/or inscription have been added by another hand.

15. FORGERIES

(j) Dimensions are given height before width.

Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any lot which proves to be a deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21 days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought, and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that (1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition. The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.

(k) Pictures are framed unless otherwise stated.

BOOK AUCTIONS

GENERAL

If, on collation, any named item in this catalogue proves defective in text or illustration, the lot may be returned within 14 days of the sale with the defects stated in writing.

This proviso shall not apply to defects stated in the catalogue or announced at the time of sale; nor to the absence of blanks, half titles, tissue guards or advertisements, damage in respect of bindings, stains, spotting, marginal tears or other defects not affecting completeness of text or illustration; nor to drawings, autographs, letters or manuscripts, signed photographs, music, atlases, maps or periodicals; nor to books not identified by title; nor to books sold not subject to return.

(b) Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may themselves enforce them.

Droit de Suite is a royalty payable to a qualifying artist or the artist’s heirs each time a work is resold during the artist’s lifetime and up to a period of 70 years after the artist’s death.

Royalties are calculated on a sliding percentage scale based on the hammer price excluding the buyer’s premium. The royalty does not apply to lots selling below the sterling equivalent of €1,000 and the maximum royalty payable on any single lot is the sterling equivalent of €10,000.

18. Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail or Swiftmail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the addressee 48 hours after posting.

Droit de Suite, which is not subject to VAT, will be added to the buyer’s purchase price and then passed on to the relevant collecting agency by the auctioneer.

19. Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of items in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with any glossary appearing in the catalogue.

Royalties for Droit de Suite are as follows:

20. Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as having full force and effect.

21. English law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions.
