Note: Anglo-Colonial furniture makers began producing European-style furniture in the 18th century during British colonial rule. By the mid to late 19th century, furniture makers in South Asia started to apply notably local techniques and artistic features to European-style furniture, as evident in the recamier offered as lot 28. The intricately carved back, carved lion’s masks, and attractive finish relate to carved Anglo-Indian furniture held in the collection of The Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

51. Elemore Morgan Jr. (American/Louisiana, 1931‑2008), “Flooded Field”, 1985, acrylic on masonite, signed, titled, dated, inscribed and “Arthur Roger Gallery, New Orleans” label en verso, 22 in. x 26 in., unframed. $7000/9000 Provenance: Arthur Roger Gallery, New Orleans.

Note: Known as one of the south’s premier landscape painters, Elemore Morgan Jr. often painted plein-air Louisiana landscapes. Formally educated at Louisiana State University and the Ruskin School of Fine Arts at Oxford University, Morgan enjoyed travel and painted scenes he observed from around the world. However, he always returned to Louisiana, where he appreciated the atmospheric effect of moisture in the air and how it diffused the sunlight. In the current lot, Morgan employed his characteristic broad brush strokes and gestural painting style to capture the standing water in a field under a clear, open sky.

52. Paul Sawyier (American/Kentucky, 1865‑1917), “Elkhorn Creek, Kentucky”, watercolor on paper, signed lower right, exhibitions labels including “Paul Sawyier: A Centenary Memorial” with title en verso, 13 3/4 in. x 21 in., matted and framed. $8000/12000 Provenance: Mrs. Isaac F.

Robinson studied at the Académie Julian in Paris and taught at the Maryland Institute, Drexel Institute, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, Columbia University, and the National Academy of Design. In 1937, Robinson retired and moved south to Biloxi, Mississippi, where he continued to paint; his impressionistic palette and brushwork combined with the southern scenery to create beautifully complex compositions of views of everyday life in Biloxi.

54. William S. Robinson (American/Mississippi, 1861‑1945), “Biloxi ‑ Mississippi”, 1939, oil on board, signed lower left, signed, monogrammed, titled, dated “March‑23‑1939”, printed artist’s biography and inscribed en verso, 12 in. x 16 in., framed. $5000/8000

56. Ed Ruscha (American, b. 1937), “New Wood/Old Wood”, 2007, Mixografia® diptych relief prints on handmade paper, each pencil‑signed and dated lower right, no. 13/75, “Mixografia, Los Angeles, CA” label en verso with artist, title and date and “Ed Ruscha New Wood/Old Wood” 2008 Mixographia® brochure en verso, each 13 in. x 34 in., framed together; accompanied by copy of original invoice. $3000/5000 Provenance: Mixografia, Los Angeles, CA, 2008; Collection of Nan Wier, New Orleans, LA. Note: In 1962, Ed Ruscha along with Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and Jim Dine, was included in the Pasadena Art Museum’s exhibition entitled “New Paintings of Common Objects,” one of the first American museum shows to feature what would become known as Pop Art. Ruscha, who become famous for his word paintings such as the MOMA’s “Oof,” also found inspiration through Marcel Duchamp and his readymades. Ruscha’s work, as described by fellow artist Adam McEwen, “is so unpretentious, so un-condescending. He actually does deal with great themes but in an irreverent way.”

In the lot offered here, Ruscha’s presentation is minimalist. Reliefs representing two identical blocks of wood in different life stages are presented side by side. The meaning, like much of his work, is for the viewer to interpret. It is buried in the unsaid, the relationship that resides in the juxtaposition between the old and new, fresh and decayed, pristine and weathered.

66. Milton Avery (American, 1885‑1965), “The Eclipse”, c. 1930s, watercolor on paper, signed lower right, pencil-titled and various inscriptions incl. “Owned by March Avery” en verso, “DC Moore Gallery, New York” and “George Krevsky Gallery, San Francisco, CA” labels with artist, title and date en verso of backing board, 15 in. x 22 in., framed; accompanied by a copy of DC Moore Gallery 2006 invoice. $25000/35000 Provenance: DC Moore Gallery, New York; George Krevsky Gallery, San Francisco, CA. Note: “He was, without question, our greatest colorist. Nothing that has occurred in the entire development of Color Field abstraction can be said to rival or surpass the invention and virtuosity he lavished upon the pictorial uses of color.” ~ Hilton Kramer In the lot offered here, Milton Avery’s transgressive mastery of color is evident in the cool palette of eggplant, dark blue and chartreuse that lushly saturate the paper. Much like his contemporary, an artist to which he was often compared, Henri Matisse, Avery had the ability to reduce his subjects to their most basic and essential articulations, conveying details in the mere suggestions of shape and form. Avery, whose work often contains a spark of gentle humor, instilled this work with a wink to the viewer–the figures on the beach enthralled with their view of an eclipse are themselves on view for Avery’s audience.

68. Edward Hopper (American, 1882‑1967), “Temptation of St. Anthony”, c. 1900‑10, conté crayon on paper, signed lower right, titled lower center, “Frank K.M. Rehn, New York”, “Jan Krugier Gallery, New York” and “DC Moore Gallery, New York” labels with artist, title and date en verso, 12 1/4 in. x 9 in., framed; accompanied by a copy of DC Moore Gallery 2000 invoice. $12000/18000 Provenance: Frank K.M. Rehn, Inc., New York; Jan Krugier Gallery, New York; DC Moore Gallery, New York.

Note: Edward Hopper was an enthusiastic reader from an early age; his father kept a large library including the most popular English classics and translations of French and Russian literature. Hopper eventually began to create illustrations based on the novels that most affected him. By finding meaning in these books, “Hopper came to define his art as a constant struggle to master the pictorial in order to record inner truth,” according to author Gail Levin.

Knowing of Hopper’s avid reading and interest in French literature, it would not be unlikely that he had read a translation of Gustave Flaubert’s The Temptation of St. Anthony. In the chapter “The Martyrs,” Flaubert writes that St. Anthony “witnesses the meetings of Christian women at the sepulchres.

He beholds the touching ceremonies of prayer, change into orgies,– lamentations give place to amorous dalliance.” While we cannot know if Hopper intended this depiction to be a literal illustration from Flaubert’s lifelong work, it is highly likely that Hopper would have been familiar with the book, and the drawing offered here certainly has distinct parallels to Flaubert’s description of that memorable scene.

69. Bruce Conner (American/California, 1933‑2008), “Still Life”, 1963, ink on paper, signed, titled and dated on backing board, “Picasso Frames, Marina Del Rey, CA” and “Christie’s 11‑Jan‑11, Lot 11” labels en verso, 23 3/4 in. x 17 3/4 in., matted and framed; accompanied by a copy of original 2011 Christie’s invoice. $6000/8000 Provenance: Property from the Collection of Dennis Hopper, Christie’s New York, Rockefeller Center, Jan. 11, 2011, lot 11.

Note: Bruce Conner was a pioneer in the San Francisco Beat scene in the late 1950s and first garnered critical success for experimental film projects and his assemblages composed of found objects. These sculptures, created between 1957 and 1964, were a passionate rejection of the consumerism in American society and challenged the traditional limitations of the art world. Determined to defy categorization, Conner continued to work in a large variety of media and styles throughout his career, remaining always inventive and unpredictable. In the work offered here, Conner depicts an interior scene in ink. The darkened and distressed chair upholstery harkens to Conner’s assemblage furniture pieces of the same period (Couch, 1963), providing hints of decay within an otherwise traditional interior. The line quality and mark-making along with utilization of negative space seamlessly combine to display Conner’s skill in composition, as well as conception.

In the early 1960s, Bruce Conner met Dennis Hopper at the Ferus Gallery in Los Angeles. Both born in Kansas, they would become lifelong friends.

Hopper immersed himself in the West Coast art scene and collected works by many artists, some more profoundly than other, including Bruce Conner. “Still Life,” offered here, was previously sold at Christie’s in New York as part of the Dennis Hopper collection, which included 300 works from the late actor’s home in Venice Beach, CA.

70. Jesus Moroles (American/Texas, 1950‑2015), “Las Mesas Column”, 1999, Fredericksburg granite, unsigned, h. 99 in., w. 26 in., d. 13 1/2 in. (comprised of 24 components). $30000/50000 Provenance: Acquired from the Artist, Important Private Collection, Nashville, TN.

Note: Born in Corpus Christi, TX, Jesus Moroles developed an early passion for art.

Following service in the Air Force during the Vietnam War and studies at North Texas State University, Moroles worked as an apprentice to renowned sculptor Luis Jimenez (1940-2006). In 1980, he fulfilled a lifelong dream to travel to Pietra Santra, Italy for one year, where he was deeply moved by the art and tradition of marble carving. The artist returned to Texas shortly thereafter, committed to working in stone. Rather than carving marble however, Moroles instead felt that granite would be his medium, saying “granite was a fundamental element…the core and heart of the universe” Looking to the work of Isamu Noguchi (1904-1988) for aesthetic inspiration, Moroles began using wedge-like tools to split stone: “I wanted to expose the true nature of the stone, so I decided not to carve it but tear it.” This method involved hammering five-inch steel wedges into the stone, causing it to split along the natural grain. Moroles polished some surfaces of the granite, but left others rough. The interplay of the smooth and coarse surfaces became a vital element in his work, a subtle commentary on the theme of man versus nature that would be woven in his work throughout his career.

Moroles generally worked on a colossal scale, transforming the landscape with large fragments of granite through his public sculptures. Moroles’ largest work was a 1991 memorial to Houston police officers, a 120-by-120-foot public sculpture on the banks of Buffalo Bayou. His most visible was “Lapstrake” from 1987, a 64-ton, 22-foot-tall sculpture at the E.F. Hutton CBS Plaza in New York, across the street from the Museum of Modern Art. The New Orleans Museum of Art’s Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden includes Moroles’ “Las Mesas Bench” from 1989. Despite their large scale, Moroles completed all of his works in his own studio in Rockport, TX. Granite required both great physical strength and perseverance to transform, and Moroles rarely worked from sketches, instead allowing the medium to shape his design. His forms were universal columns, crescents, triangles, obelisks, and pyramids.

Many paradoxes exist within Morloles’ work, as they evoke both ancient and modern civilizations. Sensuous columns resemble both pre-historic totems and sleek, towering skyscrapers. With the “Las Mesas Column,” offered here, Moroles effortlessly achieves both the scale and captivating surface seen in his most important works. The column towers over the viewer, and as the artist intended, the natural presence of the stone transforms the environment surrounding it into a “sacred space.”

Jesus Moroles was one of the master sculptors of his generation. His works are held in esteemed private, museum, corporate, and public collections including the Dallas Museum of Art, Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Museum of Contemporary Art in Oksaka, Japan, Museum of Fine Arts Houston, Museum of Fine Arts Santa Fe and the National Museum of American Art Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C., among others. Moroles’ sculptures were included in over three hundred museum and gallery exhibitions during his lifetime, and he was awarded the National Medal of Arts in 2008.

77. Leonard Theobald Flettrich (American/New Orleans, 1916‑1970), “Dancer Putting on Lipstick”, oil on canvas, signed lower left, 43 in. x 26 in., original artist‑made cypress frame. $4000/6000 Note: Notable New Orleans artist Leonard Flettrich painted both representational and abstract works throughout his career. Having studied with Paul Ninas at the Arts and Crafts Club School and showing his paintings alongside John McCrady at the Downtown Gallery, parallels can be seen between the works of Flettrich and his contemporaries. In the current lot, the stylization of the figure is reminiscent of McCrady’s work, while the flat, abstracted background calls to mind Ninas’ aesthetic. However, Flettrich brings to life the young dancer caught in a commonplace task, reapplying lipstick during a break. Bonnie Crone writes, “Art for Flettrich was a very personal thing – a medium to express emotion and truth.” This portrait of a dancer, depicting a brief moment in time, achieves that goal by capturing the fleeting expression on the woman’s face.

by San Lazzaro, “XXe Siècle, No. 4”, Paris, “William Weston Gallery, London, England” label with artist, title and date en verso, 12 1/2 in. x 8 7/8 in., framed; accompanied by a copy of original invoice. $800/1200 Provenance: William Weston Gallery, London, England, 2008; Collection of Nan Wier, New Orleans, LA.

Flettrich enjoyed a productive career in New Orleans, exhibiting locally and nationally, while also teaching at the Arts and Crafts Club, Tulane University’s School of Architecture, and the New Orleans Academy of Art. His work has been exhibited at the Louisiana State Museum and is included in the collection of the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.

The model in this painting is believed to be Mary Lee Aucoin, who often posed for artists at Newcomb College, and often modeled for Flettrich in his French Quarter studio. The frame on this painting is of note, as it was likely made by either Flettrich, Carl Durel, or John Clemmer for the Gresham Gallery, which was owned by local art dealer and interior designer, Charlie Gresham.

A peer of prominent New York cabinetmaker Duncan Phyfe, Lannuier’s elegant classical furniture melded Anglo-American taste with French style and technique.

With only subtle differences, this lot is almost identical to a Lannuier card table from a private collection, illustrated in Honoré Lannuier: Cabinetmaker from Paris by Peter M. Kenny. The foliate carved supports are directly related to Lannuier’s “water-leaf carving,” a feature prevalent throughout his work. The table’s paw feet are also related to Lannuier’s common usage of outstretched lion’s paw feet paired with acanthus carvings, also illustrated by Kenny in several examples, including tables held in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Winterthur Museum in Delaware.

123.

(closed) 23 1/2 in., d. 47 in. $2500/3500 Note: A versatile piece, the multiform table has longer dimensions than the typical card table or games table and was used during the early 19th century for a variety of purposes including casual dining, serving, and games. Features of the table offered here are almost identical to examples made

by Philadelphia furniture maker Anthony Quervelle.

The overall form, incurvate plinth, and paw feet are distinctly similar to a Quervelle table from the collection of Mr. Charles B. Swain. The elaborately carved acanthine standard, a form often used by Quervelle and other Philadelphia makers, relates to a Quervelle breakfast table from a private collection, illustrated in Philadelphia Empire Furniture. The table’s foliate carved frieze panel relates to a Philadelphia work table held in the collection of The Biggs Museum of American Art, also illustrated in Philadelphia Empire Furniture.

The elaborately carved crest on the loveseat offered here is almost identical to the crest of a Belter armchair in the “Tuthill King” pattern that descended through the Springmeier family, illustrated by Eileen and Richard Dubrow in American Furniture of the 19th Century.

199. Elizabeth O’Neill Verner (American/South Carolina, 1883‑1979), “Charleston Flower Seller Smoking a Pipe”, pastel on silk, signed lower left, sight 15 1/2 in. x 11 3/4 in., framed. $10000/15000 Note: Charleston artist Elizabeth O’Neill Verner is noted for her pastel drawings of the city’s flower women and vegetable vendors, distinctive and picturesque figures in the city during the first half of the 20th century. At one point, the mayor of Charleston threatened to outlaw the activities of the flower vendors, but Verner came to their defense. Not only was she indebted to them as models for her work, but she believed in their contributions to the charming fabric of Charleston, treating them with compassion. In her depictions of the flower women, she keeps her backgrounds to a minimum and shows them in natural positions with animated expressions, often holding or offering their flowers. The drawing offered here is a lovely example of a Verner pastel.

200. George Rodrigue (American/Louisiana, 1944‑2013), “Louisiana Bayou with Live Oak Tree”, 1971, oil on canvas, signed lower left, signed, dated and artist’s and “George Rodrigue Art Gallery, Lafayette, LA” stamps en verso, 12 in. x 16 in., framed. $10000/15000 Note: From 1968 to 1971, a young George Rodrigue worked on crafting his unique vision of Louisiana in his paintings by incorporating just three elements: the oak tree, ground and sky. By giving the oak tree prominent placement and shifting the horizon line higher on the canvas, the landscape grew more and more to resemble the Louisiana landscape of the artist’s childhood in Acadiana. Cropping the oak tree at top and illuminating the scene with only intermittent swatches of bright sky, Rodrigue found a unique perspective that left him with an infinite number of arrangements of his three elements; a puzzle which would fascinate the artist throughout his career.

In the early landscape from 1971 offered here, Rodrigue’s bayou is a carefully composed composition dominated by the silhouetted oak tree in the background and the road or river (often interchangeable in the swamps of Louisiana) in the foreground. The dark, twisting shape envelopes the lower right half of the canvas, drawing the viewer into the scene.

By the early 1970s, Rodrigue had begun to receive critical acclaim for his work. The Louisiana State Art Commission sponsored a Rodrigue exhibition at the Louisiana State Museum in the Old State Capitol in Baton Rouge in 1970, featuring seventy oak tree paintings. He also was the subject of a one-man exhibition at the Beaumont Art Museum, now the Museum of Southeast Texas, which opened to rave reviews in August of 1971. His most significant commendation during this period was in 1974. Accepted into the prestigious Le Salon in Paris, he was the only American honored, receiving an honorable mention for his painting “The Class of Marie Courrege.” At the time, the French newspaper Le Figaro described Rodrigue as “America’s Rousseau.”

Note: Born near Chicago in Grayslake, Illinois, Charles Longabaugh studied art at Wheaton College and the Art Institute of Chicago. Working primarily from his studio in Grayslake, Longabaugh also loved to travel. He painted locales such as New York and Philadelphia, as well as urban and rural scenes of the South. Longabaugh traveled as far south as Mexico, working his way through Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi, and his cityscapes, bayou landscapes, and rustic cabin scenes from the New Orleans and Natchez areas are some of his loveliest works. The current lot exhibits Longabaugh’s talent as a colorist; the teal, green, and brick red colors in each painting contrast for a complementary visual effect. The two locations depicted in this lot, Barracks at Burgundy and Esplanade near Rampart, are only a block apart in the eastern section of the French Quarter; they portray a delightful view of New Orleans life in the late 1930s.

249. Will Henry Stevens (American/New Orleans, 1881‑1949), “Abstract Composition with Shells”, 1947, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower center, 22 in. x 26 in., framed. $15000/25000 Provenance: Neal Auction Company, Feb. 5, 2000, lot 254.

Note: Will Henry Stevens was a pioneer of Modernism in the South who worked simultaneously in both abstract and representational styles. Stevens came to New Orleans in 1921 to teach at Newcomb College, a position he held until the year prior to his death. Stevens became part of the active and exciting art circle centered around the French Quarter. Prior to and during his tenure in New Orleans, he also worked in and visited New York, where he was exposed to current international developments in artistic styles. A trip in the 1930s to the newly opened Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York exposed him to the work of the European masters Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky. Both artists became a strong influence on Stevens’ aesthetic. In the painting offered here, he depicts abstracted shells and other forms of sea life against diagonal planes of color. The composition is a masterful example of Stevens’ modern, abstract style.

254. Richard Misrach (American, b. 1949), “Crucifix and Union Carbide Plant ‘Cancer Alley’, Louisiana”, 1998, chromogenic print, signed, titled, dated, numbered “2/25” and inscribed lower margin, sheet 20 in. x 24 in., framed. $1800/2500 Note: Misrach is one of the most influential photographers of his generation, in the 1970s he helped to pioneer the renaissance of color photography and its use in large scale works. Most famous for his ongoing series, Desert Cantos, Misrach has captured landscapes for over 40 years, focusing on the human and industrial impact on nature. The artist says of his work: “My own agenda is foregrounding the importance of time in photos, in its infinite number of permutations.”

Misrach was commissioned in 1998 by the High Art Museum in Atlanta to produce an exhibit entitled “Picturing the South.” His time in Louisiana consisted of traveling between Baton Rouge and New Orleans in the area known as “Cancer Alley,” documenting the relationship of the local people and the petrochemical industry. Shocked at the environmental conditions he encountered, the artist returned in 2012 to complete a continuation of the series. Referring to the haunting nature of these photos, art critic Jeff Davis used an example of the photograph offered here as the best model of what Misrach was portraying “...the themes of death and pollution at the hands of machinery and the petrochemical industry…” Editions of this print are included in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, Chicago Art Institute, High Art Museum, Stanford University Cantor Art Center and Aperture Gallery New York.

Note: After studying sculpture in his native Italy, Achille Perelli came to New Orleans in the late 1840s and began his career as a sculptor, painter, and marble cutter. Active in the New Orleans art world, Perelli was involved in the formation of the Southern Art Union and the Artists’ Association of New Orleans, where he taught drawing and sculpture. By the 1870s, Perelli had turned almost exclusively to painting nature morte scenes of fish, birds, and other small animals. Prized for their accuracy and attention to detail, Perelli’s nature mortes have always been highly sought after by collectors. In the current lot, Perelli depicted a Passenger Pigeon, a now-extinct cousin of the mourning dove, with a distinctive gray-blue head and back and a red breast.

Exh.: “Creative Obscurity, The Genius of Noel Rockmore”, LaGrange Art Museum, LaGrange, GA, 2012 and illustrated on catalogue cover.

Note: A theme that recurs throughout Noel Rockmore’s career is his dedication to portraiture. He painted family, friends, musicians, artists, and strangers.

Another frequent element in Rockmore’s work is that of dream and fantasy.

The current lot, which depicts the artist’s mother and father, sensitively combines both of these themes - the realistic and sympathetic portraits of his parents are fantastically interwoven with his mother floating in a Chagall-like manner over his father.

Rockmore’s parents, with whom he was very close and yet had a combative and competitive relationship, each passed away soon after this portrait was completed; Floyd Davis died in 1966 and Gladys Rockmore Davis in 1967.

While other portraits from 1965 depict his parents sitting or standing next to each other in an interior setting, the current lot, with its dark background, floating sitter, and white bouquet of flowers, seems almost funereal in nature.

It is interesting to speculate whether the artist knew of his parents’ declining health or predicted that he would soon lose them. Rockmore himself admitted he had a preoccupation with death, stating, “I am to a certain extent one of those artists who chronicles decay…I would say the spectre, the inevitability of death excites me. It is somehow the promise behind the peculiar process we insist upon calling life.”

700.

Note: In the early 1960s, opposition to the Vietnam War began to grow, inspiring protests, boycotts, and strikes, and artists often used their canvases to comment. Rolland Golden joined those protesters in 1970 with his Old South series. In a 1978 interview, he stated, “I was struck by the similarities between our Civil War of the 1860s and the Viet Nam War of the 1960s. I felt I had to make a statement about war and its futility. In my show the emphasis was not on brilliant charges, but on the sufferings of the soldiers.”Golden painted a variety of subject matter throughout his career, including works depicting the rural South, New England, Manhattan, France, and Moscow. Some of the works he considered the most important were the paintings that resulted from his passionate political beliefs. Although he was criticized by some for commercializing the controversy of the war, Golden felt it was important for artists to use their art to make political statements about which they felt passionately. He pointed out in a 1985 interview for American Artist magazine that this was something other artists, such as Francisco Goya, Honoré Daumier, and Diego Rivera, had been doing for centuries.The current lot, “Beyond Endurance,” draws parallels both obvious and nuanced between the Civil War and the Vietnam War, while also portraying Golden’s empathy for the soldiers in both wars. Depicting the suffering of a crouched Confederate cavalryman, whose face is obscured but whose bloody hands and tattered uniform can be clearly seen, Golden creates a sense of hopelessness and distress. However, loss of hope is not the focus of the piece or the Old South series as a whole. Rather, as Paul Fabry writes, “It is a metaphor of the futility of war and the triumph of peace.” In 1976, Golden was invited by the Institute of Soviet-American Relations to exhibit a one man show of fiftyone paintings in Moscow, Leningrad, Kiev, and Odessa. The group consisted of a variety of subject matter, and “Beyond Endurance” was included in the show. Golden’s works were well received by the Soviet audience, who appreciated the realistic style, views of everyday life, and historical analogies.

Note: The intricately carved monumental bed in the lot offered here is a blend of Gothic, Elizabethan and Jacobean styles. The bed’s overall form is a revival of the grand carved oak state beds made for English stately homes during the 16th and 17th centuries. As Gothic Revival furniture became popular in the England during the first half the 19th century, the Elizabethan and Jacobean revivals emerged during the late 19th century and remained in fashion into the early 20th century. During this period, English furniture makers often copied the grand oak beds of English stately homes. An early 20th century copy of an oak state bed from the Rothamsted Manor shares many of the same characteristics of the bed in the lot offered here, including the paneled tester, figural and mask carvings, and the highly-ornamented posts.

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.
