91. Rufin Gavrilovich Sudkovsky (Ukrainian, 1850‑1885), “Farmer’s Cottage on River Bank”, oil on canvas, signed in red in Cyrillic lower right, 48 3/4 in. x 70 3/4 in., period frame with brass artist plaque. $40000/60000 Provenance: A La Vieille Russie, 718 Fifth Avenue, New York, NY, 1976; Collection of Mrs. Dudley J. Hughes, Jackson, MS. Note: Rufin Gavrilovich Sudkovsky was a Ukrainian painter from Ochakiv who specialized in monumental seascape and maritime scenes. Studying as a child at the Odessa Drawing School, in 1868 he went to St. Petersburg to attend the Imperial Academy of Arts where he spent about four years and was awarded several medals. Sudkovsky traveled to Germany, France, Austria and Switzerland, trips which improved the technique and originality of his work. He continued to exhibit his work at the Academy in St. Petersburg. While preparing for an exhibition in Kiev in 1885, Sudkovsky fell ill from typhus and passed away at the young age of 35. He created a masterful body of work that was limited to a little over a hundred paintings. In 1882, Sudkovsky exhibited a work titled Tempest near Ochakiv that won him the title of Academician from the Academy. The painting offered here may quite possibly be this very work. A dramatic rain storm sweeps across the sea in the background, while the marsh grasses bend in the wind. A thatched roof house sits on the shoreline, while two women tend a fire and a man secures his rowboat. Sudkovsky often formed his compositions as arcs of land adjacent to the curving water, a technique employed in this remarkably monumental painting. The power of the oncoming storm and rain are effectively rendered, manifesting the artist’s true brilliance as a painter.

106. Raffaelo Romanelli (Italian / Florence, 1856‑1928), “La Sulamitide [The Shulamite]”, 1881, kneeling marble figure, inscribed “SU / LA / MI / TI / DE” across bangles on headdress; signed and dated at side of base, “R. Romanelli Firenze 1881”, h. 44 in. $40000/60000 Provenance: Possibly Manheim Antiques, New Orleans, 1957; Collection of Mrs. Dudley J. Hughes, Jackson, MS. Note: This wonderful statue represents “the Shulamite,” the heroine of The Song of Songs, “a semidramatic idyll written originally for some notable wedding” somewhat after 332 B.C., and also known in alternative titles as The Book of Canticles, or—somewhat misleadingly, in view of its Aramaic-influenced Hebrew of the Hellenistic period—as The Song of Solomon, one of the most poetical (and puzzling) books of the Old Testament. Initially interpreted as a religious allegory (usually of God’s love for faithful believers, or for the human soul), this short text has also been interpreted as a sort of sacred drama, usually—albeit implausibly—involving Solomon himself, his desired consort (as depicted in this captivating figure), and the shepherd who was construed to have been her first love. That dramatic interpretation, still retaining many aspects of an allegorical reading, was the basis for a popular religious play of the 18th c.—Giuseppe Maria Ercolani, Sulamitide, 1732— one of whose several editions may possibly have inspired this appealing characterization (though “Sulamitide” is the standard Italian word for “Shulamite,” the Hebrew term for the heroine as given in the text [ch. 6, verse 13]; so that Romanelli’s inspiration may have come from no more distant source than his own Bible). The tenderly adoring attitude of this exceptional figure makes it truly one of the most memorable sculptures of its period. Many of the heroine’s attributes are taken directly from the text of Canticles: the inscribed “ornaments of gold [and] silver” on her head, the “strings of jewels [around her] neck” [1:10-11], and perhaps most notably the “cluster of henna blossoms” [1: 14] held in her hand (with another flower seen on the base). Two millennia of inspired commentary about this princess—ostensibly the daughter of an Egyptian pharaoh—who traditionally eschewed the role of King Solomon’s consort in order to preserve her virtue, have made her (in the writings especially of St. Augustine) the paradigm of a saintly submissiveness, at once imploring the appreciation of her enchanting beauty, while at the same time remaining a chaste embodiment of God’s love. Romanelli’s inspired rendition of those lofty sentiments exemplifies one of the highest achievements of 19th-c. sculpture. Ref.: 4th c. BC, The Song of Solomon (King James and especially Revised Standard versions); Ernest Sutherland Bates, The Bible designed to be read as living literature, New York ,1936, p. 771; Rev.

113. Vittorio Reggianini (Italian, 1858‑1939), “The Secret”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, 39 1/2 in. x 26 3/4 in., period frame. $80000/120000 Provenance: Collection of Colonel Bluford H.J. Balter (1884‑1971) and Alva S. Oteri Balter (1884‑1973), New Orleans; Vincent Mann Gallery, New Orleans, 1977; Collection of Mrs. Dudley J Hughes, Jackson, MS. Note: Born in Modena in 1858, Vittorio Reggianini trained in the local academy, the Accademia di Belle Arti, alongside Gaetano Bellei and Eugenio Zamphighi. In 1885, he moved to Florence and it was during this period that the artist established a reputation for himself on the international art market. At this time, the artist’s choice of subject matter and style dramatically shifted from the local historical realism that dominated his earliest work to the new Continental taste for more fanciful paintings that recreated the luxuriant lifestyles and opulent decor of the late 18th and early 19th century. The artist’s masterworks were genre subjects, which depicted the life of elegant ladies and gentlemen of the late 18th century. He was a superb draughtsman and had a particular talent for painting the sumptuous fabrics and furniture of that period. Reggianini’s subject matter always suggests a story, usually of a romantic nature. In this particularly beautiful example of the artist’s work, a lady receives a love letter which she reads in secret with her sisters. He paints their hands and faces with delicate precision, and their satin gowns are exquisitely executed. The empire waist and décolletage of the women’s dresses and the curled hair, styled to resemble Grecian fashion, perfectly personify the styles worn during Napoleon’s Empire period from 1804‑1815.

523. Louisiana Ladderback Child’s Chair, 19th c., turned finials, tapered stiles, spindled arms, turned uprights, original rawhide seat, h. 22 1/2 in., w. 13 in., d. 11 1/4 in. $800/1200 Provenance: Found in New Roads, LA. Note: The finials, cylindrical upward-tapering stiles, arched and slightly bowed slats, rawhide seat, and hand-formed seat rails on this chair relate closely to those on several well-known slat-back chairs from the Acadian prairie. Interestingly, certain more complex carved elements on this chair, including the spindled arms and swelled uprights, are not seen on the other illustrated chairs, perhaps indicating the work of a yet unidentified craftsman.

522. Important American Federal Inlaid Cherrywood Tall Chest of Drawers, early 19th c., cove-molded cornice, three short over five graduated drawers, chamfered stiles, spurred “French” feet, h. 65 1/2 in., w. 44 1/2 in., d. 22 1/2 in. $7000/10000 Note: The cove-molded cornice, style and execution of inlaid decoration, drawer configuration, spurred French feet, and the use of cherry and poplar relate this tall chest to several other Pennsylvania examples made in the Federal style circa 1800. Interestingly, nearly identical cherrywood tall chests have been attributed to Lancaster County, PA. The contrasting diamond inlay on the frieze, double band-inlaid drawers, and chamfered stiles inlaid with an interlacing string pattern bespeak a distinctive refinement of this tall chest from. Lying eighty miles west of Philadelphia, Lancaster County became the center of a regional school of cabinetmaking during the late 18th century.

531. Anthony Thieme (Dutch/New York, 1888‑1954), “Taxco Cathedral, Mexico”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, titled, inscribed, artist’s studio stamp, and remnants of two hand‑written labels en verso, 30 in. x 36 in., framed. $15000/25000 Note: A native of Holland, Thieme studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rotterdam and the Royal Academy at the Hague. After completing his studies, Thieme journeyed throughout Europe and South America, working in stage design to support his travels. Thieme first came to the United States in 1917 and initially worked as a set designer and book illustrator, first in New York and later in Boston. By the late 1920s, Thieme had married and moved from Boston to Cape Ann in Rockport, Massachusetts, an emerging art colony. Like the other Rockport artists, his style was influenced by Impressionism. Throughout his career, Thieme favored painting en plein air because it allowed him to better capture the atmosphere’s fleeting effects. He has been referred to as the “Master of Light and Shadow.” In 1935, Thieme and his wife visited Mexico and Guatemala. The view of Taxco Cathedral offered here was likely painted during this trip. It is interesting to note that concomitant with Thieme’s Mexican sojourn, the New Orleans artist William Spratling was resurrecting Taxco’s heritage as a center of silver craftsmanship.

Jacques Telesphore Roman III obtained the property from his brother-in-law Valcour Aime in 1836. Impressed by the dramatic overarching trees, he demolished the modest house at the end of the allé and replaced it with a majestic Greek Revival structure. He originally named it Bon Sejour, meaning “good stay” in French, but the nickname Oak Alley, given to it by travelers on the Mississippi steamers, eventually took hold. There are 28 columns on the plantation mirroring the 28 oak trees lining the path. In the painting by Clarence Millet offered here, Oak Alley Plantation stands impressive amongst the lush greenery of the garden, while three antebellum ladies congregate in the shadows of an oak tree.

George Frederick Castleden (British/New Orleans, 1861‑1945), “A Sandy Beach”, 1936, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left, titled en verso, 18 in. x 22 in., period frame. $3000/5000 Provenance: D.H. Holmes, New Orleans. Note: Born in Canterbury, England in 1861, George Frederick Castleden studied art in his native city until moving to (current day) Saskatchewan in Canada to study oil painting at the Canada Regina Institute. He settled in New Orleans in 1911, where he became enchanted with the Old World architecture and ambiance of the French Quarter. He would go on to capture the daily city scenes both in etchings and oil paintings until he left New Orleans for Charleston in 1936. From 1934 to 1936, he and Mazie Howell were commissioned by Frank Evans, the owner of D. H. Holmes Department Store to paint a series of landscape murals to be displayed around the store.

Note: Harry W. Barnitz was a student of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and studied under the renowned American Realist painter, Thomas Eakins. Eakins, who painted a portrait of Barnitz when he was just nineteen, complimented his young student in a letter from 1884, “[y]ou draw and paint very well and extremely well for your age. I know no one who has a better start.” In 1887, he moved to Atlanta for a brief period and taught at the Atlanta Art School as well as the Washington Seminary for Girls. He also shared a studio with Henry Ossawa Tanner, a fellow student from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Orion Frazee, a local sculptor, art critic, and prominent figure of the Atlanta art scene described him: “his manner is the broad, vigorous style of the French school – is strong and rich in color.” Barnitz left Atlanta to return to Philadelphia in 1889. A rare example from Barnitz’ time in the South, the work offered here presents a sweeping view of a southern landscape complete with rustic cabin, a woman washing clothes in the stream and a cotton harvest in the background. The composition, luminous color and precise brushwork certainly lend credence to Eakins’ glowing review of the young painter.

Meeker, who had studied landscape painting at the National Academy of Design under the leader of the Hudson River School, Asher B. Durand, was much inspired by the indigenous flora and fauna along the river. His sketches from this time period would become the foundation for his series of Southern luminous landscapes, and he would continue to draw on them throughout his career. Though he returned to St. Louis after the war, he continued to paint scenes from the bayou, returning to Louisiana every summer to paint the Mississippi delta. He works are characterized by a play of light and darkness with the sky illuminating the dark foliage below all while casting reflections off the water. His glowing portrayals of bayous and swamps, like the one offered here, gained him critical national and regional acclaim. Ref.: Chambers, Bruce W. Art and Artists of the South: The Robert P.

The Cajuns of George Rodrigue. Birmingham, AL: Oxmoor House, Inc., 1976, p. 25. Note: George Rodrigue’s Cajun scenes are defined by a somber palette depicting dark earth, minimal sky, and low-hanging oaks adorned with Spanish moss. The intensity of the colors convey the mystical quality of the swamp in Cajun country. People are depicted as suspended within the shadowy landscape, symbolizing the Cajuns’ own displacement from Canada to Louisiana where they became “locked in” the bayou and a new way of life. The subjects glow against the dark foliage like ghosts or relics of an older time. In the painting offered here, Rodrigue mirrors his characteristic treatment of the human figure through his depiction of the Sacred Heart statue, once located on the grounds of Mount Carmel Academy in his hometown of New Iberia, LA. Mount Carmel Academy opened as a day and boarding school in 1872 on the banks of the Bayou Teche and closed in 1988. Rodrigue wrote of the painting: “The irony of the painting is that I paint a statue very similar to the way I paint the people. I paint my people as if they were caught in the landscape. And the statue as I have put it here is in the center of the oak tree, the center of the mind, the heart and the life-style of the Cajun.” Ref.: “History.” Catholic High. http://chspanthers.com/Pages/AboutUs/History/ history.html.

603. Ida Rittenberg Kohlmeyer (American/New Orleans, 1912‑1997), “Tropism”, 1958, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower right, “Orleans Gallery, Royal St., New Orleans” label with title and “Fourth Annual Painting of the Year, Atlanta Art Association and Mead Atlanta Paper Company, 1958” entry form with title en verso, 48 in. x 48 in., framed. $10000/15000 Note: In 1956, Ida Kohlmeyer traveled to Provincetown, MA to do a three month workshop with famed Abstract Expressionist, Hans Hofmann. This period of time ignited a major turning point in her approach to painting. Inspired by Hofmann’s advice that painting should be an “invention and not an imitation,” she began to approach her work in a more impulsive and physical way. Her new methodology shifted her focus to the process of making art rather than the outcome and thus 1956 marked the beginning of her evolution from figurative painting to Abstract Expressionism. Mark Rothko came to New Orleans in 1957 as a visiting artist for Newcomb College, reinforcing the influence of Abstract Expressionism on Kohlmeyer’s work. He lived in Kohlmeyer’s late mother’s house and worked in the garage. Rothko’s friendship had a lasting impact on her paintings, as is evident in her later usage of defined fields of color. The important painting from 1958 offered here clearly shows the contemporaneous influence of these two important artists on Kohlmeyer’s work and also provides a window into her successful development as an artist in her own right.

605. Charles Sheeler (American, 1883‑1965), “Design for World’s Fair”, 1939, conte crayon on paper, pencil‑signed and dated lower center, pencil‑signed, titled and inscribed “Ridgefield, Conn. c/o Downtown Gallery, 113 W. 13 St., NYC”, “Michael Rosenfeld Gallery, 50 West 57th Street, NYC” labels en verso, image 9 in. x 7 in., sheet 10 1/2 in. x 9 1/4 in., framed. $15000/25000 Note: Charles Sheeler was born in Philadelphia in 1883 and attended the School of Industrial Art in Philadelphia as well as the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art. A self-taught photographer, Sheeler worked for a brief time documenting local buildings for architects, then later photographing the interior of his own home, focusing on the play between the planes of light and shadow. This work resulted in a 1920 collaboration with the photographer Paul Strand on the short film “Manhatta,” which focused on the ever-changing cityscape of New York City. His concentration on industrial architecture including skyscrapers, bridges, and factories led to his association with the Precisionist movement. The years preceding the completion of the 1939 drawing offered here were an exciting time for the artist. In 1931, art dealer Edith Halpert offered Sheeler exclusive representation at her Downtown Gallery in New York. As a result, Sheeler attained broader recognition for his precise, yet evocative, interpretations of utilitarian forms and attracted important commissions. From 1939 to 1940, he traveled across the country on assignment for Fortune magazine, photographing locations for a series of paintings on the theme of “Power.” The six finished paintings depicted icons of American industry such as airplanes, locomotives, power plants, and dams, and he would later utilize his source materials for related works. Sheeler was also the subject of a biography written by the historian and critic Constance Rourke in 1938 and a retrospective exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in 1939. In 1939, Sheeler also opened an exhibition at the New York World’s Fair. The motto of the fair was “The World of Tomorrow.” This theme is reflected in the drawing offered here through the suspended abstract industrial shape reminiscent of skyscrapers and Manhattan architecture, and it also serves as an example of a body of work best described as “exploring the balance between abstraction and representation, photography and painting, an increasingly mechanized present and a more homespun past, uniting all these aspects in a skillful tension.”

620. Irma Sompayrac Willard (American/Louisiana, 1897‑1991), “Along the Stream, Louisiana Landscape”, 1922, oil on canvas board, signed and dated lower right, 14 in. x 19 3/4 in., period gilt frame. $6000/8000 Note: Born in Natchitoches, Louisiana, Irma Sompayrac (later Mrs. David Milne Willard) began painting during her time as a student at Newcomb College, from which she graduated in 1920. After spending time traveling between and working in New York City and Natchitoches, Sompayrac, her friend Gladys Breazeale, and former professor Ellsworth Woodward collaborated to create the Natchitoches Art Colony. With Sompayrac and Breazeale as directors and Woodward as professor, the Art Colony opened with its first season in 1921; there were ten students who had enrolled to study and compete for prizes. In 1922, Will Henry Stevens joined the colony as the primary instructor and over the next decade, the school, while retaining a relatively small number of around thirty students, gained national publicity and students from as far as California. This light and airy landscape, with a rich, yet soft, palette and sweeping composition, draws comparisons to Ellsworth Woodward’s oil paintings. The scene of a Louisiana stream certainly could have been painted near the Natchitoches Art Colony, a location which Woodward described as “an ideal location for an Art Colony” with “scenery unsurpassable.” Noted as the first art colony of the south, the Natchitoches Art Colony paved the way for future colonies and clubs, such as the Cane River Arts and Crafts Club.

New Orleans, 1857‑1862), “The Steamer Magnolia at the Port of New Orleans”, c. 1857‑1860, salted paper photoprint mounted on paper, signed in negative “Edwards, Photo.” and inscribed “Opposite Post Office, Royal St. N.O.” lower left, image 6 in. x 7 3/4 in., sheet 11 in. x 13 7/8 in., antique wood frame. $3000/5000 Ill.: A Closer Look: The Antebellum Photographs of Jay Dearborn Edwards 1858‑1861. New Orleans: The Historic New Orleans Collection, 2008, p. 25. Note: Jay Dearborn Edwards moved to New Orleans in 1857 and was working from a studio at 19 Royal Street by 1860. Edwards’ photographs from this era are the earliest surviving photographs printed on paper of New Orleans and depict a thriving port city. Cotton and sugar were the primary commodities fueling activity along New Orleans’ levees and driving business interests. The 1859-60 cotton harvest, the largest on record to date, produced 4.65 million bales, of which 2.25 million passed through the port of New Orleans. With few exceptions, Edwards’ photographs portrayed, directly or indirectly, some aspect of this commerce. Steam power, a defining technology of the Industrial Revolution was another key subject for Edwards. In the salted paper photoprint offered here, Edwards captures a view of the port of New Orleans along the Mississippi River levee. There are two steamboats, one of which is the Magnolia, loaded with bales of cotton and men standing on the upper deck and planks leading to the wooden wharf. The name of the other boat is not visible, but it has signs indicating it is an express for Memphis, Louisville, and Cincinnati. The wharf is stacked with numerous cotton bales, as well as barrels. On October 20, 1859, under the heading “River Intelligence,” the New Orleans Daily Crescent noted that the packet Magnolia had arrived in port with 5,383 cotton bales on board, more than any boat had carried that season. Given the vast discrepancies in the size of individual bales at the time, the Magnolia could have been carrying anywhere from two to four million pounds of cotton. Printing on paper allowed Edwards to create images that were larger than even rare full-plate daguerreotypes. His view of New Orleans combined with his remarkable technical skill in the still new field of photography offers a remarkable compendium of construction, shipping, and business activity. Edwards captured the full sense of the nation’s third-largest port at the height of the antebellum period. Edwards fled New Orleans in the spring of 1862 when his photographs of Union activities and forts along the coast implicated him as a Confederate spy. Following his service to the Confederacy as a mail carrier in Virginia, Edwards settled his family there until 1886, when they moved to Georgia and opened a photography studio near the historic Atlanta center of Five Points.

Note: Tennessee artist Adele Lemm spent much of her life in the South and New England, where she often summered at Martha’s Vineyard. She studied at the Siena College in Memphis as well as the Memphis Academy of Arts. Lemm’s well-known work is defined by blocks of color in a soft palette with details omitted in favor of representation through broad brush strokes, perfectly exemplified in the painting offered here. In addition to painting, Lemm taught for twenty-three years at the junior school of the Memphis Academy of Arts. In the 1950s and 1960s, Lemm exhibited at the National Academy of Women Artists’ Annual Exhibition, New Orleans Museum of Art, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Brooks Museum of Art and Ward Eggleston Galleries in New York City. Her work is represented in the collection of the Brooklyn Museum of Art. Ref.: Pennington, Estill Curtis, and James C. Kelly. The South on Paper: Line, Color and Light. Spartanburg: Robert M.

656A. Arthur Silverman (American/New Orleans, b. 1923), “Untitled”, 1985, stainless steel, signed and dated, acrylic base, 36 in. x 5 3/4 in. x 5 in., mounted on a wood pedestal, overall h. 70 in., w. 11 in., d. 11 in. $1500/2500 Provenance: Estate of Dorothy “Dot” Shushan, New Orleans, LA. Note: New Orleans sculptor Arthur Silverman is most noted for his monumental sculptures. His powerful and often sizeable work is based on a simple idea — the use of one geometric element in repetition: the tetrahedron, or a triangular pyramid. A tetrahedron has no right angles, so a tetrahedral structure jars us out of spatial complacency. To Silverman, this seemingly humble form is special. “The tetrahedron is very exciting visually,” he says. “It’s very difficult to anticipate what you are going to see.” The work offered here is a slender, elegant sculpture based upon these design principles. Silverman has executed more than 400 metal sculptures that range from just inches to more than 60 feet in height. In the New Orleans area alone, more than 30 public buildings feature his artwork, including the Tulane Law School and the A. B. Freeman School of Business at Tulane University, the Entergy Centre on Poydras Street, and Temple Sinai on St. Charles Avenue. His work is also included in numerous museum collections.

He was discovered in 1973 by New York gallerist, Gisela Fabian of Fabian Gallery, who overheard a friend remark that his works were better than those being exhibited at her gallery. She offered to look at Zingale’s pieces, and shortly thereafter, she placed them in her show of important American self-taught artists. As is demonstrated by the painting offered here, Zingale’s works are defined by their two-dimensional rendering of subject matter as well as bold areas of color. Zingale’s works are included in collections of the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe, Nelson Rockefeller Collection in New York, and the Fenimore House Museum in Cooperstown, New York.

CONDITIONS OF SALE Placing a bid at auction constitutes buyer’s acceptance of and agreement to these Conditions of Sale. 1. WAIVER OF WARRANTY: All lots are sold “AS IS”. No statement regarding condition, kind, value, or quality of a lot, whether made orally at the auction or at any other time, or in writing in this catalogue or elsewhere, shall be construed to be an express or implied warranty, representation, or assumption of liability. Any such warranty is WAIVED. Regarding works of art, Neal Auction Company does not make any express or implied warranty as to authorship. No statement in the catalogue or elsewhere, orally or in writing, shall be construed as an express or implied warranty, representation or limitation of liability as to authorship. Any such warranty is WAIVED. Buyer agrees and acknowledges that: (a) buyer is not relying on Neal Auction Company’s skill or judgment in selecting to purchase any lot; (b) no oral or written statements in the catalogue of Neal Auction Company or elsewhere regarding condition, attribution, kind, quality, value or authorship are the cause of or reason behind buyer’s purchase of any lot; (c) buyer would have incurred the purchase of any lot regardless of any oral or written statements about condition, attribution, kind, quality, value, or authorship made in the catalogue or elsewhere; (d) Neal Auction Company did not know and could not have known that condition, attribution, kind, quality, expressed value, or authorship is the cause or reason why buyer decides to purchase any lot; (e) buyer’s purchase of any lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; and (f) Neal Auction Company did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral or written statement about a lot in the catalogue or elsewhere would cause a nonpecuniary loss to buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing WAIVER OF WARRANTY, agreements and acknowledgements, Neal Auction Company may in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, consider any reasonable request for rescission of a sale on the basis of authenticity of authorship of a work of art under the following terms and conditions only, all of which must be met: A. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding lots identified by Neal Auction Company by the terms “attributed to,” “school of,” “manner of,” “after,” or “signature of.” B. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer notifies Neal Auction Company in writing within 25 calendar days from the date of the auction, and returns the lot to Neal Auction Company in the same condition that the lot was in at the time of sale. C. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission regarding any lot unless the buyer presents to Neal Auction Company a written document signed by a recognized art expert acceptable to Neal Auction Company that the lot in question is a forgery. D. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission to any person (including but not limited to the original buyer’s heirs, legatees, assigns, transferees, or subsequent purchasers) other than the original buyer, and any rights of the original buyer are not transferrable or assignable. E. Neal Auction Company shall not grant rescission when: (i) there is a conflict of expert opinion as to the authorship; (ii) expert opinion supported authorship at the time of sale, although expert opinion may have changed after the date of sale; and (iii) scientific processes that were unavailable, expensive or impractical at the time of sale have revealed since the time of sale that the author or period Neal Auction Company believed to be accurate at the time of sale was inaccurate. F. In any dispute between Neal Auction Company and buyer regarding authorship of a work of art, it is stipulated that rescission of the sale and refund of the price paid shall be the buyer’s sole recourse or remedy, if any is available, and Neal Auction Company shall not be responsible or obligated for any damages (including compensatory, general, incidental, exemplary or special damages), non-pecuniary losses, costs, expenses, injury, mental anguish, lost profits, attorney’s fees, or any other monetary or injunctive relief. 2. The auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the successful bidder. At the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, title to the offered lot will pass to the bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer. The bidder thereupon assumes full risk and responsibility and will pay full purchase price for the said lot. 3. The auctioneer may decide that any original bid is not commensurate with the value of the article offered, or that any advance thereafter is not of sufficient amount, he may reject the same.

4. The auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw any item at any time before the sale of the item. 5. No merchandise will be released before the end of the auction. 6. If the buyer fails to comply with any of the Conditions of Sale, Neal Auction Company reserves the right to hold such defaulting buyer liable for the purchase price; to cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payment made by the buyer; resell the property without reserve at public auction or privately on seven days’ notice to the buyer or, take such other actions available by law as deemed necessary or appropriate. If Neal Auction Company resells the property, the original defaulting buyer shall be liable for the payment of any deficiency in the purchase price and all costs and expenses, including warehousing, the expenses of both sales, reasonable attorneys’ fees, commissions, incidental damages and all other charges due hereunder.
