letter from the ceo Tinsel. Just hearing the word transports me to my seventh Christmas as surely as if I was clutching the comforting hand of the ghost of Christmas past.

Growing up, Christmas at my house mostly revolved around Christmas tree traditions. Every year on the appointed night, my parents and I would pile into our wood-paneled station wagon and visit at least two tree lots. After much discussion on everyone's part and some negotiation, the (almost) perfect tree would be tied to the top of the car for the trip home.

With a great to-do and much huffing and puffing, my dad, a die-hard Navy man, would haul the tree into the house and then string the lights, using some words in the process that perhaps a 7-year-old shouldn't have heard, but this was the one occasion my mom didn't chastise him. Finally came the magical Christmas moment when dad plugged in the lights and the now “vintage-style” bulbs bathed our small den in red, green, blue and gold light.

We’d stand for a moment admiring the beauty of the (almost) perfect tree and enjoying the woodsy smell. Hanging the ornaments completed the evening, and we tromped off to bed, weary but full of holiday spirit.

The following night, dad would be happily ensconced in his favorite chair, knowing his contribution to Christmas was mostly over, and he could enjoy the rest of the season. But after dinner, mom would start carefully placing tinsel on the tree, one single, sparkly strand at a time.

During my earliest years I longed to be a part of this tradition; however, my chubby fingers couldn't handle the tiny, fragile strands. But in my seventh year, my mother announced I, too, could hang the tinsel on the tree. The end result was a tree that glowed and shimmered and was simply, to me, the most breathtaking sight I had ever seen. And every year following, I was equally awestruck.

Both my parents worked long and hard so time together was a luxury. But each year, when mom and I would meticulously hang those hundreds of metallic strands, sometimes talking and sometimes just enjoying being together, it was my opportunity to have time alone with her. It was during this tinsel-hanging time I confessed adolescent secrets, including my first love and then heartbreak and my hopes for college and my future.

After the flurry of serving Christmas Eve dinner, the yearly family pictures had been taken in front of the tree and the guests had noisily departed, mom would turn off all the lights in the house. With mugs of hot chocolate, which as the years passed turned into glasses of wine, we would sit together, once again admiring our magnificent (almost) perfect tree and enjoying our special time together.

The Christmas tree tradition my mom and I shared is one of the special ways I remember her, holding those memories of our years of putting tinsel on our trees close to my heart.

It is in creating traditions we define who we are in relation to our families and society. They give us a framework for our memories and lend a semblance of order to an unpredictable future. Traditions feed our hearts and our souls.

At New Orleans Auction Galleries, we have our own holiday traditions, which include decorating a fabulous tree (almost perfect, but with no tinsel, though) that illuminates our preview party. There’s also the famous, much-anticipated Brie soup we serve during the festivities.

And, as always, we have the tradition of offering 1,138 amazing auction lots on Saturday, December 10 and Sunday, December 11 starting at 10:00 a.m. each day. A few of my favorite things Santa should promptly load on his sleigh include an extensive collection of Newcomb and Shearwater pottery from the Estate of George “Dod” Stewart, an avid collector of Southern art pottery.

As always, it will be a busy season, so don’t forget to mark your calendars for our preview party, Thursday, December 8, beginning at 5:30 p.m. It’s sure to be a night of magical holiday fun, which, to me, is (absolutely) perfect.

All of us at NOAG wish you a happy holiday season filled with both old and new traditions, and of course, a Happy New Year!

George “Dod” Stewart Slidell, Louisiana

George “Dod” Stewart was an artist, musician, avid art collector, pottery collector and patron of the arts. He pursued all things Arts and Crafts. Guests to his modest home beneath the St. Tammany pines of Slidell, Louisiana, found an overwhelming collection of Newcomb and Shearwater pottery along with a large collection of paintings and furniture. His scholarship on Shearwater Pottery, one of the earliest American art potteries, helped bring further recognition to the work of Walter Anderson, James “Mac” Anderson and Peter Anderson, as well as later generations of Anderson potters and decorators. Dod loved people, and his admiration of the Anderson family is reflected in his book, Shearwater Pottery, an invaluable, authoritative and comprehensive resource for collectors and scholars of Shearwater.

His patronage of contemporary artists extended nationwide. As president of the American Art Pottery Association and his participation in the annual Arts and Crafts Conference in Asheville and the Pottery Lovers gatherings in Zanesville each year, Dod met with collectors and contemporary artists alike. Dod generously loaned pieces from his personal collection to museums, including the Smithsonian Institute and the University of Louisiana.

Known worldwide in the organ procurement and transplantation community, Dod's vocation took him around the globe many times. Friends and family always enjoyed his dry wit and generosity, usually over a delicious meal. His friends knew of Dod's artistic pursuits and many helped locate possible items of interest. Packages and crates usually beat Dod home, and his dining room always seemed like “Christmas central.”

In addition to his many accomplishments in the medical field and as a collector, Dod played piano and guitar, and was an amateur horticulturist. He maintained a greenhouse of orchids as well as many beautiful plants in his home and yard.

New Orleans Auction Galleries is honored to offer art pottery, paintings and furniture from the Estate of George “Dod” Stewart.

ALICE EVANS PRATT HOUSTON, TEXAS

Alice Evans Pratt was born January 17, 1915 in Houston, Texas to Joseph W. Evans and Emily Scott Evans. She attended The Kinkaid School and later spent a year at Newcomb College.

The Evans family founded Evans & Company Cotton Buyers and Exporters in 1908. Located in the Houston Cotton Exchange Building, Evans & Company remained a major business in Houston throughout the early 20th century. Alice’s father, Joseph, was instrumental in establishing the Port of Houston as an important port for cotton producers and contributed to its current status as an international gateway for essential cargo.

Alice had a natural curiosity and love of learning. Her interests included gardening, decorating, medicine and business. She loved dogs, especially Sam, one of the many German Shepherds she owned throughout her life.

As a native Houstonian, Alice was dedicated to improving the Houston community. She created the Emily Scott Evans Endowed Professorship in the Special Collections and Archives Department at the University of Houston and also supported the construction of the Emily Scott and Joseph Wood Evans Training Room classroom that provided UH students a place to research and learn from the library’s rare books, archives and manuscripts. Alice was also instrumental in funding the landscaping for the Houston Public Library’s main downtown location.

On a national level, Alice was on the board of the National Parks Foundation and established the Wills Foundation to fund medical research for Huntington’s Disease. She was extremely interested in the medical field, specifically genetics, and was excited by genomic advancements. Alice was fascinated with technology and saw new advancements in electronics and their impact on the world as the most important development of her lifetime.

Alice loved to travel and had a special appreciation for Turkey, France and New York City. She remained active until the very end of her life, even taking a motorcycle ride to celebrate her 90th birthday. Alice died in June 2016 at 101 years old.

New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to offer items from the Estate of Alice Evans Pratt in our Winter Estates Auction.

Virginia McGaughey Lynch was a well-known New England art gallery owner. Born in Greenville, Texas in 1916, she attended Baylor University and earned an Undergraduate degree in French. She continued her studies at Baylor, earning a Masters in American Civilization. In 1960, after her first marriage ended in divorce and her children were grown, she moved from Texas to Massachusetts, briefly taking a job at Brandeis University before marrying William Lynch. After William died, she worked in the alumni office of the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and later served on the school’s Board of Trustees.

Virginia always had an appreciation and love for art, but it wasn’t until she opened Virginia Lynch Gallery in 1983 at 68 years old that she formally pursued a career in that field. Prior to opening the gallery, she had dabbled in the art world by selling paintings by artist Molly Luce out of her home; she continued to represent Luce after opening the gallery and is credited with reviving her career. She represented several hundred artists over the years, including Dale Chihuly, Gretchen Dow Simpson, Molly Luce and many others. Widely celebrated in the art world for her ability to discover and elevate emerging as well as established artists, she received an Honorary Doctorate Degree from RISD in 1997 (alongside renowned artist Chuck Close) and the school honored her with a curatorial retrospective in 2000.

New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to offer paintings from the collection of Virginia Lynch.

Clyde Connell, the eldest of nine children of a Louisiana cotton planter, was a self-taught abstract expressionist artist. She briefly attended Brenau College in Gainesville, Georgia, before leaving that institution to raise her family and independently study art. Her earliest paintings and drawing were expressive documentary depictions of the society and culture around her. In the mid-50s, inspired by the Abstract Expressionist artists such as Jackson Pollack and Adolph Gottlieb, Connell began to move away from figural representation.

Connells’s often larger than life sculptures required materials that were plentiful, inexpensive, and easily manipulated by the diminutive artist, and these were ultimately to be found in the environment around her the brown earth, red clay, and wood of the Louisiana countryside. Frequently incorporating found objects and materials into her assemblages, she created powerful works evocative of ritual. Mystical and often spiritual, but not indicative of a particular dogma, these sculptures integrate symbols and hieroglyphs with geometric and linear elements, allowing for the viewer’s personal interpretation.

A native of Connecticut, David Hayes received his BA from the University of Notre Dame before enrolling in the Graduate Program at Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana, where he studied with the abstract expressionist artist David Smith (1906-1965). Inspired by the geometric metal sculptures produced by Smith, Hayes began to create large scale steel sculptures of abstracted organic forms, suggestive of their natural inspiration. His earliest works were constructed of welded steel – a distinctly industrial material; Hayes had trained with a blacksmith in Indiana, and he forged and constructed the steel constructs himself. As his style evolved, Hayes began to turn more frequently to cut steel, which he painted and frequently textured. With these sculptures, composed of curving, asymmetrical elements, Hayes explored the relationship of form and space, shapes and colors.

One of the most acclaimed contemporary American sculptors, Hayes was awarded the Logan Prize for Sculpture from the University of Chicago, and was the recipient of a Fulbright Scholarship and a Solomon R. Guggenheim Fellowship. His works are in numerous public and private collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Guggenheim Museum, New York; University of Connecticut, Storrs; Hirschorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C.; Wadsworth Athenaeum, Hartford; and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Texas.

David Teniers, the Younger (Flemish, 1610‑1690), “The Temptation of St. Anthony”, oil on oval-form wood panel, monogrammed D.T. in a circle far center right, various labels in German, French and English en verso, including a reproduction of the painting in a gallery sale catalogue ca. 1900, 16‑1/2” x 22”. Framed. Provenance: By repute Prince Pavel Demidov, Villa San Donato, 1881, and Pierre Eugene Secretan, “Vente de Secretan” by Galerie Sedelmeyer, Paris, 1889; then Christie’s, London, March 11, 1911, lot 130; Isaac Newton Fleischner Collection, Portland, Oregon. [25000/40000] Illustrated

David Teniers, the Younger was a prolific artist of the Flemish Baroque period, believed to have painted nearly 2,000 paintings in his lifetime, including the small landscapes, poignantly dubbed “afternoons,” which he was rumored to have executed in half a day. Teniers was admitted as a “master” into the Guild of St. Luke in Antwerp in 1632, he later presided over it in 1644, and was appointed painter and curator to the Archduke Leopold Wilhelm, painting and buying artwork across Europe for his collection. His lasting legacy, aside from the numerous paintings he created, was the founding of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp in 1663.

Teniers trained under his father, an artist of equal merit, and was influenced by Peter Paul Rubens, Adrien Brouwer and his father-in-law Jan Brueghel the Elder. The latter two artists’ style of genre painting, which depicted “lower class” individuals comically engaged in various vices and acts of debauchery- prostitution, drinking, smoking, card/ dice playing and fighting- greatly informed Teniers’ works , but instead of drawing upon tavern and village scenes to stage a parody of Dutch proverbs, like Brueghel, the Elder’s famous “Topsy Turvy World” (1559), Teniers preferred the biblical scenes illustrated two centuries before

by Hieronymous Bosch. Two of his favorite stories, which he visited numerous times in his life, are “The Rich Man in Hell” and the “Temptation of St. Anthony.” The painting offered here represents one of his five prototypes of the Temptation recognized by John Smith in his catalogue raisonné (1829-1842). While all are set in the eponymous cave of the 3rd century hermit, the arrangement and consort of demons, monsters and women the Devil sends to distract St. Anthony from his worship vary.

Recurring figures, also seen here, are the temptress with her flesh and chalice, a cloaked and beaked demon, jousting amphibians, and bird and ass hybrids.

This scene of the Temptation is as colorful as the history recorded in its labels en verso. There is a very old and faint handwritten inscription in German that dates the painting to the 1640s, followed by a mid-to-late 19th century label titled in French- joining them are a stamp notating “Collection W. Thom Smith” from ca. 1940, and most striking of all- a printed reproduction of the painting from a ca. 1900 English catalogue/

book stating that its provenance is from the Villa San Donato sale of Prince Demidov and the Sécretan sale in 1889. In 1881, a large part of the Demidov Collection housed in fourteen rooms in the Villa was auctioned with the property that also included numerous collections from Count Nicholas, Anatole and Prince Paul over a period of six weeks.

Pierre Eugène Secrétan a French industrialist and major art collector, purchased many works of art at the San Donato sale in Italy, including at least three Teniers (one of which was a “Temptation of St. Anthony”). After the copper crash of 1889, Sécretan was forced to liquidate his collection, which he sold through Galerie Sedelmeyer during the 1889 Universal Exposition in Paris. Much of the collection to be auctioned was published in an impressive catalogue, designed to attract French and American investors. The “Temptation of St. Anthony” painting by Teniers that was auctioned in the sale as lot 171 is not the one offered here, as it is not on copper. It is quite possible that Sécretan, an avid collector of Dutch/ Flemish Baroque painting, sold this “Temptation” to Sedelmeyer prior to the sale. Until the first part of the 20th century, the painting’s provenance is unknown. It was published and illustrated either shortly before or after it was auctioned at Christie’s, London in 1911 where it was purchased by Isaac Newton Fleischner (1859-1927) of Portland, Oregon. Fleischner, a Austrian/American businessman, was an avid art collector and partner in Mayer & Company, the largest wholesale dry goods house on the Pacific coast. From where the painting went after Fleischner is not known (Collection of W. Thomas Smith?). This Teniers painting continues to dazzle and bedevil viewers centuries later, tempting greater inquiry.

Attributed to William Hunt Diederich (Austrian/American, 1884‑1953), Art Deco gilt and patinated iron music or magazine rack, with a central motif of a figure with a wolfhound, h. 20”, w. 14‑7/8”, d. 4‑7/8”. [4000/7000] Illustrated The son of a Hungarian father and American mother (who was a member of the prominent Hunt family of Boston; her father was the acclaimed artist William Morris Hunt), Diederich spent his childhood in Switzerland before briefly attending the Boston Art School and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.

Formal schooling held little interest for the young man, and Diederich spent several years traveling across the American West working as an itinerant cowboy. He eventually traveled to Africa and Europe, studying in Paris with the great animalier Emmanuel Fremiet.

Diederich exhibited in the Paris Salons of 1911 and 1912, and at the Salon d’Automne in 1914. Upon his return to the United States, Diederich settled in New York City where he began to produce silhouettes, sculptures, and carefully composed iron and metal items. A believer that even the most mundane could-and should--be beautiful, he dedicated much of his career to creating gracefully rendered utilitarian objects, such as fire screens, gates, racks and trivets. Incorporating into his work elements of the various cultures he had encountered during his travels, Diederich was inspired by everything from Native American pottery to Roman architecture. His elegant figural pierced metal pieces were much admired by New York society in particular, and his work was frequently exhibited at the Whitney Studio Club (which evolved into the Whitney Museum of American Art), and Ferargil Galleries, New York, New York.

A pianoforte by Loud & Brothers, with a similar base attributed to Joseph Barry, sold at Brunk Auctions, February 17, 2007, lot 154. The underside of the top of one of the present examples utilizes the seat of thick boards necessary to support instrumental works. The top structure on the other table utilizes more conventional thinner poplar boards. Both appear to be original, suggesting that the pieces were diverted from piano to table purposes during their construction.

Joseph Barry is recognized as the preeminent Philadelphia cabinetmaker in the classical period. A brass-inlaid sideboard and secretary is in the collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art. His pieces are also curated by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Winterthur Museum, and the Telfair Academy, Savanah, Georgia.

Two American Coin (.900) Silver Mugs, mid-19th century, the first dated 1856, by Wood & Hughes, New York, of waisted octagonal section, decorated with repousse flower-andscroll and acanthus bands with beaded edges and crested scroll handle, with presentation inscription “Presented by / Ensign J.F. Rusha / 2nd Best Shot / Louisiana Grays / May 4th / 1856”, h. 4”, w. 3‑1/4”, the second ca. 1870 by Peter L. Krider (1821‑1895) for J. E. Caldwell & Co., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, of slightly tapering cylindrical form with engraved berry cartouche, beaded rims and crested scrolling handle, engraved “Lizzie”, h. 3‑3/4”, dia. 2‑1/2”, 6.18 total t. oz.

Provenance: Estate of Alice Evans Pratt, Houston, Texas.

[500/800] Illustrated The Ensign “J.F. Rusha” who presented this shooting trophy was Joseph Francis Ruhsa (ca. 1814‑1878), a Philadelphia native. His obituary states that he came to New Orleans around 1828, although the actual date is probably a little later. He was certainly in New Orleans by 1836, when records show J.F. Rusha as one of the founders of the Protection Hose Fire Company, for whom he served as secretary until at least 1852. Newspaper accounts also show him as an Ensign in the Louisiana Grays in 1856, the year the cup was presented; for instance, he is mentioned several times as one of the organizers of the Louisiana Grays Fancy Dress Ball in April.

He worked briefly as a distiller before joining his elder brother Edwin Morris Rusha (1811‑1893) as a clerk in his liquor and wine business. He died in New Orleans on February 3, 1878.

Fine American Coin (.900) Silver Presentation Pitcher, dated 1841, by Gale, Wood & Hughes, New York, New York, of inverted pear form, decorated with elaborate repousse rococo cartouches of neoclassical architecture, with a repousse acanthus-form calyx below and milled leaf-and-berry band above, the flaring collar with integral spout engraved with flowers and rococo scrolls, with melon-knopped crested scroll handle, the whole raised above a knopped and domed foot en suite, the cartouche engraved with a presentation inscription “to Capt. Rich’d. B. Cleland / of British Steamer / Britannia” from the passengers of his May 1841 voyage from Liverpool to Boston, h. 15‑1/2”, l. 10‑1/2”, dia. 7”, 44.30 t. oz. [2500/4000] Illustrated The Britannia was the first ship of the Cunard line, whose maiden voyage was in July 1840. The trip ushered in the age of the luxury ocean liner, at the forefront of which Cunard would remain for the next hundred years. Glasgow-born Captain Richard B. Cleland (1809‑1891) was not at at the helm of that voyage, though he did captain Cunard’s second ship, the Caledonia on her maiden voyage of the same route in September 1840. He was evidently seconded to the Britannia by the spring of the following year, when twenty-one of his passengers were signatories on this magnificent pitcher, an elegant artifact of the earliest days of luxury sea travel.

(Though there were those who were not so impressed; see the recollections of the Britannia’s most famous - and most famously miserable - passenger, Charles Dickens, whose January 1842 crossing on the steamship is covered in comical detail in his American Notes.

Alfred Boisseau (French/American, 1823‑1901), “Miss Mary Tanner (b. 1833‑1834), Waubun Plantation, Terrebonne Parish, Louisiana”, 1849, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left center, titled on brass artist plaque, 39‑1/2” x 31‑1/2”.

Presented in a giltwood frame. Provenance: Descended in the family of the sitter; Ex-collection Don Didier, New Orleans, Louisiana. Illustrated: Pennington, Estill Curtis, Down River: Currents of Style in Louisiana Painting, 1800‑1950 (Pelican Publishing: Gretna, LA, 1991), p. 2. [8000/12000] Illustrated

Rarely is a portrait from Alfred Boisseau’s brief tenure in Louisiana “discovered”, even rarer is its sale at auction.

Since 1976, only eight recorded portraits have been sold at auction, and only one of those is of a Louisiana belle of equal execution— Portrait of a Young Lady, possibly Mrs. Alfred LeMore, nee Marie Xavier Athenaïs Chretien (b. 1830). The portrait offered here of Miss Mary Tanner painted in September, 1849, is both one of the first portraits Boisseau is known to have done after his return from France and one of the last Louisiana ones he painted before he embarked for New York.

Boisseau, a native of France, studied under Paul Delaroche, a Neo-Classical painter of historical and mythological scenes, before debuting at the Paris Salon in 1842. Boisseau, following in the footsteps of his predecessor Jean-Joseph Vaudechamp and Jacques Aman sought a more lucrative market abroad in the “New World.” Classical style paintings, marked by strong lighting, fine detail and a polished finish, appealed to the burgeoning French Creole class of merchants and plantation owners eager to commemorate their success. Boisseau’s early portraits very much belong to this tradition- the sitters rendered at three-quarter to full profile occupy the entire picture plane dominating the landscape, fields and finery before which they are placed, evoking a sense of pride and mastery. Miss Tanner, though a mere girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, presents a commanding stature with her black hoop-skirt, piercing eyes and hair, framed before a window with lush crimson drapery swept aside to reveal an impressive, though diminutive, landscape of Live Oaks and a family plot loosely painted in tertiary colors.

As the portrait, painted at Waubun Plantation, indicates, Miss Tanner comes from an illustrious family, one that along with the Verrets, and Thibodauxs, had been instrumental in the development of Terrebonne parish, which was partitioned from Lafourche in 1822. The sitter, Mary, was the fifth daughter of Lemuel Tanner (1786-1843) and Marie Agnes Celeste Belanger (1797-1864). Mr. Tanner, born in Screven, Georgia, served as a First Lieutenant in the War of 1812 in the Seventh Regiment of the Louisiana Militia. In 1814, he settled in Lafourche and married Belanger, who was jointly related through blood and marriage to the Thibodaux family.

The Belanger and Tanner families were wealthy planters

who owned lands in both parishes that adjoined near Bayou Terrebonne. In the 1860 census, Mrs. Tanner recorded the Waubun Plantation real estate value at $1000,000; personal property at $230,000. The Plantation (also near Bayou Terrebonne) was purchased in 1845, following the death of Lemuel Tanner in 1843, and remained in the family until after the death of Celeste in 1864.

A decade before her death, Mrs. Tanner gifted two large parcels of the land to the New Orleans, Opelousas and Great Western Railway, which would later become greatly contested in the Supreme Court of Louisiana in 1895 and 1911 when the title was acquired by Captain John T. Moore (a childhood friend of Mark Twain), who owned the plantation from 1895-1916.

The Tanner’s land (via succession) was wrought with legal issues. In 1852 the Supreme Court of Louisiana overturned a previous ruling and mandated that restitution be paid to Lemuel Tanner’s heirs that listed Mary, her mother and eight of her sisters and brothers. Mary’s sister Rosella (b. 1830) was not noted as an heir, because she died in 1846, leaving her older sister Elizabeth (b. 1823) and younger sisters Brigitte (b. 1836) and Louisa (b. 1840) in the home at the time of the portrait commission. What became of Mary after 1852 is shrouded in mystery. Marriage certificates issued in Louisiana for women named Mary Tanner (born 1833-1835) list that a Mary Ester Tanner, born 1834, (Ester is also the name and middle name of two of her sisters) married Edmund W. Barnes (b. 1828) of New Orleans in 1856, and later Oscar Cheney (b. 1829) of Magnolia Plantation in Rapides Parish in 1869. According to periodicals published in the Alexandria Weekly Town Talk, she died a few years before her daughter Rosa’s wedding to Martin Lacaze in 1895.

[1000/1500] Illustrated Baxter was born in Hyannis, Massachusetts and, under the sponsorship of Governor William Sprague, received his training in Europe, first at the South Kensington School of the Royal College of Art in London and then the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. Despite his rigorous Academic training, Baxter preferred a more plein air approach to painting. Upon completion of his studies he traveled across Italy and France, sketching and painting on site. He eventually settled in Rhode Island and opened studios in Newport and Providence. A member of the Boston Art Club, the Providence Art Club and the Newport Art Association, Baxter was also an early supporter of the Rhode Island School of Design, which has three of his paintings in their archives.

Few works by Baxter remain since a devastating studio fire destroyed almost his entire life’s work.

Mary Lizzie Macomber (American/Massachusetts, 1861‑1916), “Contemplation”, oil on canvas, signed with “M. L. Macomber/Studio” stamp lower left, 20” x 16”. Framed.

[1000/1500] Illustrated Mary Lizzie Macomber was an allegorical and genre painter who created works in a style reminiscent of the British PreRaphaelites. A native of Fall River, Massachusetts, she studied with Robert S. Dunning (1829‑1905) and Frank Duveneck (1848‑1919), and briefly attended the School of the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, before opening her own successful studio in Boston. Employing a deep, rich color palette and utilizing a stark contrast between light and shadow, her subjects, almost exclusively women, boldly encompass the canvas.

As evidenced by the portrait presented here, this technique creates an emotionally compelling work which engages the viewer. Macomber exhibited widely during her life, including at the Pennsylvania Academy of Art, Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Carnegie Institute, and the National Academy of Design, and was the recipient of numerous awards.

Recognized today for his images of Native American life, Edward Curtis was an ethnological writer and photographer, intent on documenting cultures he feared would soon be extinct. His twenty-volume series, The North American Indian, funded by financier J. P. Morgan, took nearly twenty-five years to complete. Almost exhaustive in scope, it included over 1,500 images and a collection of essays culled from the information contained in the countless wax cylinder recordings Curtis made during his travels and interviews. The series is available online in its entirety via Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois (http:// curtis.library.northwestern.edu/). The image presented here, “The Vanishing Race”, is one of his most wellknown images, and stands as a testament to Curtis’ intentions when he embarked on his life-long project: to create a visual recording of an endangered culture, people, and way of life.

2. Before the Auction (a). ALL SALES ARE “AS IS, WHERE IS” WITH NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER. (i) NEITHER NOAG NOR THE SELLER PROVIDES ANY GUARANTEE OR WARRANTY AS TO THE NATURE, DESCRIPTION, GENUINENESS, PROVENANCE, IMPORTANCE, OR CONDITION OF THE LOT. All Sales and Auctions are without any representation or warranty of any kind by NOAG or the Seller. Bidders and Buyers are responsible for satisfying themselves concerning the condition of the Lots and the matters referred to in the catalogue entry, the Condition Report, or in any other statement or writing provided. All Sales are final and are “AS IS WHERE IS.” (ii) No warranty of redhibition. ANY WARANTY AGAINST REDHIBITORY DEFECTS IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED.

In addition, NOAG and Seller provide no warranties, guarantees, or representations as to whether a Lot is fit for its ordinary use, fit for Buyer’s intended use or for Buyer’s particular purpose. (iii) No warranty against eviction. ANY WARRANTY AGAINST EVICTION IS WAIVED AND EXCLUDED. In the event that Buyer is evicted from possession of whole or part of the Lot, neither NOAG nor Seller have any duty whatsoever to return any part of the Purchase Price to Buyer.

Except as required by local law, any express or implied warranty of any kind whatsoever is excluded by this Section 2(a). (b). Examination of property / Condition Reports. Prospective Buyers and Bidders are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the Auction takes place. As a convenience, Bidders may request that NOAG produce a Condition Report (“Condition Report”) for a Lot, which, if produced, will provide additional detail concerning the condition of the Lot as observed

by NOAG’s staff. NOAG reserves the right to decline to produce a Condition Report for any specific Lot, for any reason and in NOAG’s sole discretion.

(c). Catalogue and other descriptions. (i) All statements made by NOAG as to condition, authorship, period, culture, source, origin, measurement, quality, rarity, provenance, importance, or historical relevance, whether in the Catalogue entry for the Lot, in the Condition Report, and/ or in a bill of sale, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, are qualified statements of opinion only and are not to be relied on as statements of fact. Such statements do not constitute a representation, warranty or assumption of liability by NOAG of any kind. References in the Catalogue entry or the Condition Report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the Bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. (ii) Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, are responsible for the correctness of any statement of whatever kind concerning any Lot, whether written or oral, nor for any other errors or omissions in description or for any faults or defects in any Lot. (iii) Any Estimates provided should not be relied on as a statement that this is the price at which the item will sell or its value for any other purpose. Any written or oral appraisal, Estimate or other statement of NOAG or our representatives with respect to the estimated or expected selling price of any Lot of Property is a statement of opinion only and shall not be relied upon by Bidders or prospective Bidders as a prediction or guarantee of the actual selling price. (iv) NOAG shall not be liable for any errors or omissions in catalogue or other descriptions of the Property. Neither NOAG nor the Seller is responsible in any way for errors and omissions in the catalogue, or any supplemental material. (d). Further acknowledgement. As a Bidder and prospective Buyer, you further agree and acknowledge that: (i) You are not relying on NOAG’s skill or judgment in selecting to purchase any Lot; (ii) No oral or written statements in the Auction Catalogue, Condition Report, or elsewhere are the cause of or reason behind your purchase of any Lot; and you would have incurred such purchase regardless of any oral or written statements about condition, attribution, kind, quality, value, or authorship made in the catalogue or elsewhere; (iii) NOAG did not and could not have known that condition, attribution, kind, quality, expressed value, or authorship is the cause or reason why you decide to purchase any Lot; (iv) Your purchase of any Lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; and (v) NOAG did not know, nor should it have known, that any oral or written statement about a Lot in the catalogue, Condition Report or elsewhere would cause a nonpecuniary loss to a Buyer.

3. At the Auction (a). Registration before bidding / Bidding requirements. In order to be accepted as a Bidder and allowed to place a Bid, all Bidders must meet all of the following requirements: (i) A Bidder must complete and sign the attached registration form and provide identification to NOAG; (ii) NOAG may require the production of bank or other financial references or any other additional information; (iii) When making a Bid, a Bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the Purchase Price in full in the event that the Bidder submits the Winning Bid, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with NOAG before the auction of the Lot that the Bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to NOAG, and that NOAG will only look to that principal for payment (iv) All Bids are to be made in U.S. currency unless agreed upon between NOAG and the Bidder; and (v) At NOAG’s sole discretion, NOAG may require any Bidder to post a cash deposit in an amount set by NOAG at its sole discretion. Such deposit may include, without limitation, a deposit of 25% of the Maximum Bid (or another amount set in NOAG’s sole discretion) in the case of Absentee Bids (defined below). (b). Refusal of admission / Rejection of Bidders. NOAG has the right, at its complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any Auction. NOAG reserves the right to reject any Bidder for any reason whatsoever and in NOAG’s sole discretion. (c). Absentee bids / Telephone bids. (i) As a convenience to Bidders, NOAG may allow a Bidder to submit an absentee bid (“Absentee Bid”) or telephone bid (“Telephone Bid”) by filling out (in full) the section of the attached registration form marked “Absentee Bids / Telephone Bids.” In order to submit an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid for an Auction, that registration form must be filled out and submitted to NOAG no later than 5:00 p.m. central time on the last business day before the commencement of the Auction. (NOAG reserves the right to accept late Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid submissions in NOAG’s sole discretion.)

All Absentee Bid submissions must include a maximum bid amount (“Maximum Bid”). (ii) If an Absentee Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, the Auctioneer or other NOAG staff will place the Absentee Bid at the amount of the opening bid amount, and will increase the amount as necessary until the earlier of (x) the Absentee Bid is the Winning Bid; or (y) the amount reaches the Maximum Bid. All such actions in this paragraph are at the sole discretion of the Auctioneer and/ or NOAG. If NOAG receives Absentee Bids on a particular Lot with identical Maximum Bid amounts, and at the Auction these are the highest bids on the Lot, the Lot will be sold to the person whose Absentee Bid was received and accepted first. In the event of a tie bid between an Absentee Bid and a Bid submitted by a Bidder physically present at the Auction (or a Telephone Bid), the Lot will be sold to physically present Bidder (or bidder submitting the Telephone Bid).

(iii) If a Telephone Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, NOAG staff shall attempt to contact the Bidder using the telephone number provided. If successfully contacted, the Bidder shall then be afforded the opportunity to place a Bid on the Lot by telephone. Telephone Bids may be recorded. By submitting a Telephone Bid, the Bidder consents to the recording of the conversation and the placing of the Bid. (iv) Execution of Absentee Bids and Telephone Bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the Auction and neither NOAG nor the Auctioneer shall have any liability for failing to execute an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid or for errors and omissions in connection therewith.

(d). Video or digital images. At some Auctions there may be a video or digital screen. Errors may occur in its operation and in the quality of the image and we do not accept liability for such errors.

NOAG reserves the right to video tape and record proceedings at any Auctions. Any personal information obtained will be held in confidence by NOAG but may be used or shared with our affiliates and marketing partners for customer analysis purposes and to help us to tailor our services to buyer requirements. Any Bidder attending an Auction in person who does not wish to be video-taped may make arrangements to make a Telephone Bid in accordance with Section 3(c) above. (e). Reserves. All Lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold (the “Reserve”). The Reserve for a Lot will not exceed the low Estimate for that Lot. The Auctioneer may open the bidding on any Lot below the Reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller. The Auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the Reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lot may be sold at a Hammer Price below the Reserve, at the discretion of the Auctioneer and NOAG, in any manner consistent with the agreement between NOAG and the Seller. (f). No bidding by Seller. Under no circumstances shall Seller (as agent or principal), whether by itself or through its representatives, employees or agents (except as through the Auctioneer as set forth in Section 3(e) above), enter or cause to be entered a Bid on Seller’s Lot. (g). Auctioneer’s discretion. The Auctioneer has the right at his or her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any Bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he or she may decide, to withdraw or divide any Lot, to combine any two or more Lots, and in the event of any error or dispute, to determine the Winning Bid, to continue the bidding, to cancel the Sale or to reoffer and resell the Lot or item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the Sale, NOAG’s sale record is conclusive.

Unless otherwise announced by the Auctioneer at the time of Sale, all Bids are per Lot as numbered in the Catalogue and no Lot shall be divided for Sale. NOAG and/or the Auctioneer may withdraw any Lot at any time before such Lot is offered at Auction, for any reason and in their sole and absolute discretion. (h). Successful bid and passing of risk. The Auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the Winning Bid and the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer marks the acceptance of the highest and best bid as the Winning Bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the Seller and the Buyer.

Risk and responsibility for the Lot but not its title passes to the Buyer immediately upon announcement of the Winning Bid at the Auction. (i). Post-auction sale. In the event that there is no Winning Bid at Auction for a Lot, or the Lot is withdrawn from the Auction, or the Sale is cancelled for non-payment pursuant to Section 4(g) below, NOAG may sell the Lot at public or private sale at any time thereafter, in a manner consistent with the agreement between Seller and NOAG. (j).

NOAG assumes no responsibility for failure to execute Bids for any reason whatsoever.

4. After the Auction (a). In order to consummate and complete the Sale, the Buyer must tender payment in full of all of the following amounts (all such amounts together being the “Purchase Price”) to NOAG: (i) the Hammer Price; and (ii) the “Buyer’s Premium” consisting of a premium of 25% of the Hammer Price (discounted to 22% if the method of payment is by check, cash, or wire transfer by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction) up to and including a Hammer Price of $200,000 and 10% of the amount by which the Lot’s Hammer Price exceeds $200,000; and (iii) Any applicable Louisiana, state, local, and federal or other taxes, calculated as required by law. Any documentation of tax exemption must be provided by the Bidder contemporaneously with the execution of the attached registration form. (b). Payment and passing of title. The Buyer and any other Bidders are responsible for contacting NOAG for Auction results during the week after the conclusion of the Auction. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(i) below which may require earlier payment, the Buyer must pay the full Purchase Price no later than 4:30 pm central time on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction.

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

(f). Storage charge. Subject to the foregoing provisions, any Lot that is not picked up by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction is subject to an additional storage charge of $5.00 per Lot per day (“Storage Charge”) for as long as the Lot is stored at NOAG’s facilities. The outstanding amount of this Storage Charge must be paid in full (in addition to the Purchase Price) before such Lot will be released to the Buyer. Such Storage Charge accrues on a daily basis and is billed monthly.

All items handled or stored will be at the Buyer’s risk. NOAG is not liable for any damage to Lots after the conclusion of the Auction. (g). Remedies for non-payment. If the Buyer fails to make payment in full of the Purchase Price in good cleared funds within the time required by Section 4(b) above, or payment in full of any applicable Storage Charge when incurred, NOAG shall be entitled in its absolute discretion to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies (in addition to asserting any other rights or remedies available by law): (i) to charge outstanding amounts to the Buyer’s credit card; (ii) to charge interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (but not to exceed the highest amount chargeable under applicable law); (iii) to hold the Buyer liable for the total amount due and to commence legal proceedings for its recovery together with interest, legal fees and costs to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law; (iv) to exercise any other remedy or remedies available under the law, including but not limited to a second sale of said item in accordance with the provisions of applicable law, including the subsequent enforcement of any deficiency against the initial buyer; (v) to cancel the sale; (vi) to resell the property publicly or privately on such terms as we shall think fit; (vii) to pay the Seller an amount up to the net proceeds payable in respect of the amount bid by the defaulting Buyer; (viii) to set off against any amounts which NOAG may owe the Buyer in any other transactions, the outstanding amount remaining unpaid by the Buyer; (ix) where several amounts are owed by the Buyer to NOAG, in respect of different transactions, to apply any amount paid to discharge any amount owed in respect of any particular transaction, whether or not the Buyer so directs; (x) to reject at any future Auction any Bids made by or on behalf of the Buyer or to obtain a deposit from the Buyer before accepting any Bids; (xi) to exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security and/or privilege over any property in our possession owned by the Buyer, whether by way of pledge, security interest or in any other way, to the fullest extent permitted under Louisiana law (including without limitation under La. Civil Code art. 3247, La. R.S. 10:7-209 and 10:7-210 and other applicable law), or (xii) to take such other action as NOAG deems necessary or appropriate. In connection with the item (xi) above, the Buyer will be deemed to have granted such security to NOAG and NOAG may retain the affected Lot and any property of the Buyer as collateral security for such Buyer’s obligations to NOAG and to the Seller

If we resell the property under Section 4(g)(vi) above, the Buyer shall be liable for payment of any deficiency between the total amount originally due to us and the price obtained upon resale as well as for all costs, expenses, damages, legal fees and commissions and premiums of whatever kind associated with both sales or otherwise arising from the default. If we pay any amount to the Seller under paragraph (vii) above, the Buyer acknowledges that NOAG shall have all of the rights of the Seller, however arising, to pursue the Buyer for such amount. (h). Shipping and packing. All shipping, packing, and transportation of Lots from NOAG’s facilities is the responsibility of Buyer. NOAG may, as a courtesy, assist Buyer with necessary arrangements, but by doing so, NOAG assumes no responsibility or liability for shipping, packing, moving, or transportation, including without limitation damage to Lots, damage to Buyer’s vehicle, or any personal injury of any persons involved. (i). Earlier payment may be required. For any specific Lot, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(b) above, NOAG may require, in its sole discretion, that the Hammer Price for the Lot be paid immediately upon the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer and announcement of the Winning Bid, with the balance of the Purchase Price being due by the close of the Auction.

5.Copyright The copyright in all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for NOAG relating to a Lot including without limitation the contents of the Catalogue, is and shall remain at all times the property of NOAG and shall not be used by the Buyer or Bidder, nor by anyone else, without our prior written consent. NOAG and the Seller make no representation or warranty that the Buyer of a Lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights in it.

6. Severability If any part of these Conditions of Sale is found by any court to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that part shall be discounted and the rest of the conditions shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

7. Data Collection In connection with the operation of our auction business, NOAG may need to seek personal information from Bidders or obtain information about Bidders from third parties (e.g., credit checks from banks). Such information will be processed and kept by us in confidence. Some of Bidders’ personal data may also need to be shared with third party service providers (e.g., shipping or storage companies) for Bidders’ benefit. By participating in an Auction, you agree to all previously stated disclosure.

8. Law and Jurisdiction The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to these Conditions of Sale, the conduct of the Auction and any matters connected with any of the foregoing shall be governed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Louisiana.
