116. MARY K. SLOAN

(Am. 1924-2014) River and Rocks, c. 1965 oil on canvas 16 x 18 signed lower left: MK Sloan

Mary Sloan’s vibrant and expressive style can be seen throughout a variety of mediums including but not limited to oil, mosaic, and watercolor. Having lived in both San Miguel de Allende, Mexico and Santa Fe, New Mexico before moving back to Texas, she was inspired and deeply influenced by nature. In both Desert Landscape and River Rocks Sloan’s desire to find balance between the beauty and brutality of nature is a profound influence in her work. As she stated, “there is much of nature’s constant struggle or combat yet beyond, behind, or near a struggle there is usually a stabilizing thing of beauty of strange conformity” (Sloan, Discovery).

Sloan’s works can be found in the following collections: Witte Museum, TX; Beaumont Museum, TX; Grumbacher Collection, NY; and Jefferson Museum, TX as well as others. Solo exhibitions include: Olla Podria, Dallas, TX; Men of Art Guild, San Antonio, TX; Texas Artist Association, Wichita Falls, TX.

(Am. 1864-1933) Wild Flowers of Palo Duro Canyon, 1927 oil on board 28 x 24 signed lower right: Joseph Birren signed and titled on verso: Joseph Birren, “Wild Flowers of Palo Duro Canyon” 1927, (Galardi or Indian Blanket Featured)

$6,000 - $12,000

The Davis Wildflower Competition provided an unprecedented artistic and financial opportunity for artists to paint the natural beauty of Texas. By the time the second annual Competitive Exhibition of Art was scheduled for 1928, the large cash prizes awarded by Edgar B. Davis and the San Antonio Art League were not only an incentive for Texas artists, but also for prominent artists throughout the country. Joseph Birren, having recently relocated to Santa Fe, New Mexico, traveled to Palo Duro Canyon to paint a Texas scene for the contest.

Birren, a landscape painter, illustrator and graphic artist, was known for a style he called Tactilism, meaning he used an individual style of patterned paint application in a way that gave the illusion of three-dimensional work. Born in Chicago in 1864, he attended the Art Institute of Chicago where he was a student of John Vanderpoel from 1883 to 1900. He also studied in Philadelphia, New York at the Art Students League, Munich, and Paris at the Julian Academy (1889). In the 1920s and 1930s, he maintained studios in both Chicago and Laguna Beach, California, and in 1927 had moved to Santa Fe where he had a positive reception to his impressionist landscapes.

141

For his entry, which he titled Floral Glory of the Palo Duro Canyon for the competition, he chose to paint the Prairie Dog Town Fork of the Red River as it meanders through the canyon. He notes on the back of the artist’s board the Indian Blanket wildflowers he highlights along the banks of the river. More than 600 paintings were entered for the contest and out of those, 100 were chosen for the exhibition. Birren was awarded an Honorable Mention prize for this entry. After the competition, the painting spent the next several months touring cities in Texas as part of a traveling exhibition of prizewinning paintings from the contest.

After some time roaming in the country working odd jobs, including working on farms, punching cattle, working in a circus, washing dishes and working as a movie stunt man, James B. Gantt enrolled in the Dallas Art Institute in 1933, which was then located at Maple and Alice Street on the edge of Little Mexico. He was awarded a scholarship to study under the painter and director of the Institute, Olin Travis and was taught by Jerry Bywaters as well.

In 1935, Travis helped Gantt apply for and receive a scholarship at the Kansas City Art Institute in Kansas City, Missouri where he went on to study with Thomas Hart Benton.

(Am. 1884-1979) Untitled Triptych - In the Shade of a Tree oil on MDF board each panel: 65 1/2 x 17 1/4 signed middle right: Marie Haines

$20,000 - $30,000

Painter and muralist Marie Bruner Haines (Mrs. Frederick A. Burt) was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. Early in her training she studied at the Cincinnati Art Academy of Cincinnati (1900-1901) and the Pennsylvania School of Industrial Arts, Philadelphia (1904-1905) and later continued her studies at prestigious art schools such as the Art Institute of Chicago and the National Academy of Design, NY. From 1908-1922 she lived in Atlanta, GA and moved to San Augustine, FL in 1923. Later that year, after her mother passed away, she moved to College Station to live with her sister. She became known for her murals and lunettes or half-moon shaped lacquered and painted panel works. She remained in College Station until 1950, when she married and moved to Bennington, VT. In the early 1940s, Haines was commissioned to create this sensitively rendered triptych that celebrated the career of Mr. Joseph Sayers “Cotton Joe” Mogford (1893-1989), a renowned cotton geneticist and professor of agronomy at Texas A&M University. Mogford originated the Cotton Pageant, an annual beauty pageant as part of the Maid of Cotton promotion of the National Cotton Council held from the late 1930s to the early 1970s. The funds raised by Mogford through the pageants were used to take Aggie students abroad to observe and study cotton agriculture in countries such as Uzbekistan and Peru. The scene depicted in this remarkable and historic piece is reminiscent of cotton farming as it was before harvest mechanization in the Brazos River valley of central Texas where Mogford spent his career. Works by Haines and biographical information about Mogford are held in the archives of Cushing Library of Texas A&M University.

Haines’ work can be found in the following collections: Museum of New Mexico, Santa Fe; Bennington County Courthouse, Vermont; Texas A&M University, College Station; Iowa State University, Ames; and Cincinnati Art Museum to name a few.

DAVID DIKE FINE ART

Renowned San Antonio born artist Julian Onderdonk, moved to New York in 1901 where he studied with William Merritt Chase, the Art Students League of New York, Robert Henri, and other influential artists. During his early days in New York he struggled, entering a business relationship with a ruthless art dealer that sold his works but kept most of the profit. For a few years, he divided his time between Texas and New York, sometimes working under various pseudonyms, but in 1909 he moved back to San Antonio for good. It was there in the Hill Country of Texas that his genius flourished.

As Onderdonk continued to paint in Texas, his sweeping landscapes became the prominent focus of his work.

Compositions depicting the human form became rare, but this important painting was an exception. In Noon on the Blanco Road – Southwest, Texas Onderdonk depicts a couple with their covered wagon pulled to the side of the road and a fire to prepare a meal. Their horses rest in the shade of a majestic live oak tree. The man wears a sombrero and the woman a red shawl. The noonday sun is shining brightly on the caliche road as it winds through the composition. Prickly pear cacti emerge from the stone outcropping as the clear blue sky with clouds fades into a gentle haze.

This rare painting captures a landscape and way of life for the people of San Antonio that would soon change as its population grew.

Bandera Creek is located in Bandera County, TX. It rises in Bandera Pass and runs south thirteen miles until it flows into the clear spring fed waters of the Medina River. This painting presents a unique composition and subject matter for Onderdonk. In this work he captured the clear jewel-toned water reflections of a pool beneath a green leafy canopy. This work is quieter and more reflective than some of his large open landscapes and gives a more intimate view of the terrain.

$35,000 - $45,000

EXHIBITED: Olin Travis: Texas Master, Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum, Canyon, TX.

Dallas born artist Olin Travis began painting at an early age, studying under Frank Reaugh and Vivian Aunspaugh. In 1909, he left Dallas to study at the Art Institute of Chicago and later became an associate instructor. He also became an instructor and the director of the Chicago Commercial Art School and worked as a commercial artist before returning to Dallas with his wife, Kathryne Hail Travis, in 1923. Together, he and Kathryne founded the Dallas Art Institute in 1926 and taught through the Ozark Summer School which they established in Cass, Arkansas.

Later in 1934, they were divorced.

In 1933, Olin Travis met Josephine Oliver while on a sketching trip with Frank Reaugh. Oliver was a gifted artist and violinist who had studied with Frank Reaugh since the age of 12 and had become Reaugh’s protégé. A romance soon developed between Travis and Oliver and they were married in 1935. Oliver became a concert violinist and played for the San Antonio and Dallas Symphony Orchestras for many years. She didn’t retire until the late 1970s. Her musical talent was admired by Travis and deeply connected him to the field of music. This influence can be seen in his masterful painting String Quartet.

In this work, Travis created a visual crescendo of multi-layered iconography. Neath the light of a full moon, a string quartet plays together on a lake covered in thin ice. Violinist I plays at a near frenetic pace and glides seamlessly across the ice. Unable to keep pace, violinist II has fallen headfirst into the ice. Perched in the bow of a gnarled tree, the violist creates moody and melodic notes. A turkey vulture roosts near him visually echoing his form. At the base of the tree, the cellist is seated and has lost himself in the music. This rare painting exhibits Travis’s stylized figures and links this oeuvre of his work to American and Texas Regionalism movements.

An important artist and teacher Travis’s influence was significant in the Dallas Nine group of artists and beyond. During his lifetime, Travis’s paintings were featured in numerous shows throughout Texas, New York, and Colorado and 20+ solo exhibitions were mounted. Today, his work can be found in the following collections: Panhandle-Plains Historical Museum, Canyon, TX; Dallas Museum of Art, TX; Elisabet Ney Museum and Texas Fine Arts Association, Austin, TX; Art Museum of South Texas, Corpus Christi, TX; and Marion Koogler McNay Art Museum, San Antonio, TX to name a few.

(Am. 1900-1978) Self-Portrait oil on canvas 36 x 30 signed lower right: F Darge

$30,000 - $50,000

German-born artist Friedrich Ernst “Fred” Darge arrived in Port Arthur, Texas in 1923. He soon moved to Chicago where he attended the Art Institute of Chicago, got married and worked for the Public Works of Art Project (PWAP). By 1933, he was separated from his wife and family and started to travel, working his way through California, Arizona, New Mexico, arriving finally in San Antonio. During this time, he worked as a cowhand and experienced firsthand the daily life of sheep and goat herders on the ranches of Texas. His eyes were opened to the beauty of the Big Bend country, and he found his lifelong passion: to chronicle in paint the life of the ranchman before the end of that era. Late in 1935 Darge moved to Dallas, where he would winter, but during the summers he went on painting trips out West, to the Big Bend and Taos where his love for painting cowboys grew.

Many times Darge knew his subjects personally and brought attention to, with forceful authenticity and detail, the daily life of the ranchman and herdsman of the West.

There are very few paintings Darge executed of this size and scope that ever come up for auction. In this rare and unique Self-Portrait, Darge portrays himself stoically, in full cowhand gear, and gazes directly at the viewer with his piercing blue eyes.

EXHIBITED: under the title, Landscape with House 1935 in the 1956 retrospective Homer Boss 1882-1956 at the New Mexico Museum of Art, Santa Fe, NM.

Homer Boss became a well known New Mexico artist who early on studied with William Merritt Chase (1902) and Robert Henri (1909) at the New York (Chase) School of Art. In his early work, Boss was known for commanding full-length portraits set against dark backgrounds. Eventually, he became known as one of “The Fifteen”, a group of Henri’s students which included George Bellows and Edward Hopper who rebelled against the structure of the National Academy. After a disagreement with Henri, Boss took over the school and later renamed it the Independent School, becoming an influential teacher.

In 1925, Boss’s art practice started to shift as he began regularly traveling to New Mexico. The commanding beauty of the landscape and desert formations captured his imagination. His color palette dramatically expanded as he painted the nuances of the landscape and the people he found there.

1933 was another year of change for the artist, Boss permanently moved to his ranch in Santa Cruz, New Mexico.

This important composition of the artist’s house is imbued with the light and colors of the desert. The work displays a certain stylization of forms which identifies the work as belonging to the American Scene painting movement in New Mexico, and painted at a similar time as the Dallas Nine (e.g., Bywaters, Lester, etc).

Boss’s work can be found in the following collections: Chazen Museum of Art, Madison, WI; Georgia Museum of Art, Athens, GA; Heard Museum, Phoenix, AZ; Milwaukee Art Museum, WI; and National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. to name a few.

$25,000 - $35,000

Ben Culwell was a significant Abstract Expressionist whose artwork was created in Texas, and who first achieved fame through an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. In 1946, Culwell was chosen to exhibit 19 paintings, in a seminal exhibition, Fourteen Americans at the Museum of Modern Art, with artists of the first generation of Abstract Expressionists. This exhibit was one of the first exhibitions to present Abstract Expressionism to the public. Due to Culwell’s link to New York art museums, he was one of the primary Texas artists who played an instrumental role in the birth of Abstract Expressionism in Texas.

Culwell began his early art training at the Dallas Art Institute in 1934, moved to New York in 1936, studied at Columbia University, and lived in New York until 1937. From 1941 to 1944, Cullwell experimented with artist materials and techniques during the war. In 1944 while on leave, Culwell showed the work to Jerry Bywaters who decided the work worthy of a one-man exhibition at the Dallas Museum of Fine Arts. In 1945, Curator, Dorothy Miller came to Dallas from New York, admired Culwell’s work and included 19 works in the Fourteen Americans exhibition.

For many of the Texas abstractionists, art sales were slim and Culwell as well was forced to work another job to financially support himself. It was not until the late 1950s and early 1960s when renewed appreciation for his artwork brought art sales.

Greening of a Moment is an iconic work, dated 1956-1958, and a unique opportunity, to acquire a work by artist who in the opinion of many art historians is still underrecognized, and ripe for further art historical recognition. Greening of a Moment has been on continuous loan to a museum since 2014 until placed at auction.

The surface of the painting has been built up with layers of lacquer and thick paint application, and buried in the paint layers are pieces of glass.

Culwell creativly experiments and plays with texture, found objects, glass, and other materials, both traditional and non traditional. Everyday has been on continous loan to a museum since 2014 until placed at this auction.

In 1977 the McNay Art Museum held a major retrospective on the artist, and in 1987 was featured in a solo exhibition at the Menil Art Museum.

Paul Harris Collection LOTS: 224-232 FOR DECADES, PAUL ROGERS HARRIS was influential in the Dallas art scene as a curator, educator, and artist. Having graduated from the University of North Texas with a major in art and a minor in education, Harris was a strong advocate for art education, starting his career as a teacher in Fort Worth, Texas before moving to Dallas where he continued teaching and also became the art director of the Dallas Independent School District’s television program KERA-TV. Additionally, he established the Children’s House at the Dallas Museum of Contemporary Arts before moving to New York, NY, both enrolling at New York University and working at The Museum of Modern Art until 1970 when he moved back to Dallas, becoming head of the Department of Art Education at Southern Methodist University. After four years at the university, Harris was director of the Art Center in Waco, TX before becoming an independent curator, establishing Paul Rogers Harris Exhibitions in 1988.

Daniel Kendrick is a prolific artist with strong ties to the mystique of Texas. Being a devout patriot, Kendrick’s love and vast knowledge of the Texas landscape, including Palo Duro Canyon State Park, can be felt through his paintings as well as his continuous devotion to the Texas Bluebonnet. His landscapes are detailed as “every brushstroke and color scheme are deliberately applied in such a way to achieve an effect” highlighted in the expertly precise foliage and striking Texas horizon.

As a young adult, M. Walker Nelson yearned to be a scientific illustrator with a focus on botanicals. Inspired by classic novels from Hemingway and Conan Doyle, Walker Nelson began hiking and collecting leaves to identify. When she got her first job working for a collegiate geology professor - illustrating bone fragments for a scientific journal - she quickly realized she was in the wrong business. She was not the one in the field exploring, but in a tiny room with fluorescent lighting - a human copy machine. “I was not out in nature and I was not allowed to take creative liberties” she remembers. “Although I transitioned to a fine artist, I have kept a love for nature.” This painting was inspired by a 2021 trip along I-10 from Texas to Tallahassee Florida. The magnolia trees are a gem of the forest. Their deep green glossy leaves with lime edging hides a brilliant velvet gold on the underside. She has intentionally left the quick construction lines to show the breeze gently moving in the branches as its likeness was captured.

(Am. b.1953) Flying Colors mosaic sculpture 78 x 68 x 30

$15,000 - $25,000

“Flying Colors” is one of a little over one hundred pegasuses that were installed in Dallas as part of the public art exhibition Dallas Soars! to promote tourism as well as link the business and art communities of the city together. The symbol of the pegasus was chosen as they have a unique history with the city since 1934 when the neon lit pegasus was placed on top of the Magnolia Oil Co. building. The pegasuses were displayed across Dallas in the summer of 2001 and a few can still be found in the city today.

Sonia King’s pegasus “Flying Colors,” sponsored by Harris F. Underwood III, Inc., showcases her use of mosaics, believing that “while a piece may work in color and shape, it must also correctly handle light, create contrast in texture, [and] move the eye in a certain way.” King’s pegasus uses 19,300 mosaic beads and mirrors to create a gradient effect across the varying colors, which with its size of nearly 6 feet and weighing over 100 pounds is truly a statement. King has been featured in numerous exhibitions and was commissioned in 2015 for a mosaic installation for HALL Arts in the Dallas Arts district.

TEXAS ART AUCTION

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AUCTION The following, as amended by any posted notices, specific bills of sale or similar instruments relating to a transaction or oral announcements during the sale, constitutes the entire terms and conditions on which property listed in the catalogue shall be offered for sale or sold by Murad Auctions, the auctioneer conducting the sale on behalf of any consignor for whom we act as agent. DDFAA (as subsequently defined) is not an auctioneer and is not conducting the auction or arranging any resulting transaction. In these Conditions of Sale, “We” and “Our” refer to Murad Auctions.

1. As used herein the term “bid price” means the price at which a lot is sold to the purchaser and the term “purchase price” means The aggregate of (a) the bid price, (b) A PREMIUM PAYABLE BY THE PURCHASER OF 22% of the hammer price (or 27% if bidding via LiveAuctioneers.com online) and (c) unless the purchaser is exempt by law from the payment thereof, any Texas or local sales tax (or compensating use tax of another state) and applicable taxes. Murad Auctions has been authorized by the consignor to retain, as part of our remuneration, the premium payable by the purchaser.

2. On the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, the highest bidder shall be deemed to have purchased the offered lot, and title to the lot shall pass to the purchaser, in accordance with all of the conditions set forth herein and thereupon the purchaser (a) assumes full risk and responsibility therefore (b) if requested will sign a confirmation of purchase, and (c) will pay the purchase price in full in cash for all lots purchased. To prevent misdelivery and inconvenience in settlement of a purchase, no lot may be transferred. All property shall be removed from our premises at the purchaser’s expense immediately following the sale. If not so removed we may, as an accommodation to the purchaser, transfer the property to a public warehouse or other premises under our control or the control of DDFAA at the purchaser’s sole risk and expense. Each sale made pursuant to these Conditions of Sale will be deemed to constitute a grant of security interest by the purchaser to us in, and we may retain as collateral security for the purchaser’s obligations to us or our assignee, any of the purchaser’s property in our possession, and we may apply against such obligations all monies held or received by us for the account of, or owing to, the purchaser. Each purchaser consents to the filing of public notices or our lien. Whenever the purchaser pays only a part of the total purchase price for one or more lots purchased, we may apply such payments, in our sole discretion, to the lot or lots we choose. Payment will not be deemed made in full until we have collected all amounts due in cash or good funds represented by cleared checks or cashier checks.

If the foregoing conditions or any other applicable conditions herein are not complied with, in addition to other remedies available to us and the consignor by law, including but without limitation, the right to hold the purchaser liable for the purchase price, we at our option may either (a) cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages all payments made by the purchaser or b) resell the property with a three day notice to the original defaulting purchaser, and in such event the purchaser shall be liable for the payment of any deficiency plus all costs and expenses of both sales, our commission at our standard rates, all other charges due hereunder, attorney’s fees and incidental damages; or (c) take any measures it deems necessary. If Murad Auctions must resell the property, the original defaulting purchaser will be held responsible for any deficiencies in the purchase price, including any and all associated expenses including reasonable attorney’s fees, warehousing, commissions or any other costs associated with the default. No actions by us or any third party before or after the auction shall be deemed a waiver of any of the foregoing.

3. We reserve the right to withdraw any property at any time before the actual sale. 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.

4. The auction will be conducted by Louis Murad TXS 13362. We reserve the right to reject any bid

from any bidder. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the purchaser. In the event of any dispute between bidders, or in the event the auctioneer doubts the validity of any bid, the auctioneer shall have sole and final discretion either to determine the successful bidder or to re-offer and resell the article in dispute. If any dispute arises after the sale, our sales records shall be conclusive in all respects.

5. If we are prevented by fire, theft or any reason whatsoever from delivering any property to the purchaser, our liability shall be limited to the sum actually paid therefore by the purchaser and shall in no event include any incidental or consequential damages.

6. Some lots are offered subject to a “reserve,” which is an undisclosed minimum price below which the lot will not be sold. If a lot is offered subject to a reserve, the auctioneer may implement such reserve by bidding on behalf of the consignor, whether by opening bidding or continuing bidding in response to other bidders until reaching the reserve.

7. ALL STATEMENTS CONTAINED OR IN ANY BILL OF SALE, INVOICE OR ELSEWHERE, OR MADE BY THE AUCTIONEER, AS TO AUTHORSHIP, PERIOD, CULTURE, SOURCE, ORIGIN, MEASUREMENT, QUALITY, RARITY, PROVENANCE, IMPORTANCE, EXHIBITION AND LITERATURE OF HISTORICAL RELEVANCE OR PHYSICAL CONDITION ARE QUALIFIED STATEMENTS OR OPINION AND NOT REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES. WE AND CONSIGNORS MAKE NO REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTIES AS TO WHETHER THE PURCHASER ACQUIRES ANY COPYRIGHTS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY REPRODUCTION RIGHTS IN THE PROPERTY. No employee or other agent of Murad Auctions, the auctioneer, David Dike Fine Art, L.L.C., Dike Management, LLC, David Dike Fine Art Auction, David Dike Fine Art or of David Dike (collectively “DDFAA”) is authorized to make on behalf or that of the consignor any representation or warranty, oral or written, with respect to any property. Prospective bidders should inspect the property before bidding to determine its condition, size and whether or not it has been repaired or restored.

THE PURCHASER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY COMPENSATORY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL OUR LIABILITY OR THE LIABILITY OF DDFAA TO A PURCHASER EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE ACTUALLY PAID. 8. All deliveries will be shipped COD unless otherwise agreed to by purchaser and Murad Auctions. If packing and handling of purchased lots is done by us, it is done at the entire risk of the purchaser. We are not liable for any acts or omissions of carriers or packers, including those we may recommend. Such carriers or packers may carry their own insurance and any claim for loss or damage should be addressed directly to them. No items will be shipped unless we specifically agree to do so.

9. Unless prior arrangements have been made with Murad Auctions, there may be a seven day waiting period if purchasing artwork with a personal or company check. To avoid delay of this sort, bidders are encouraged to prearrange check approval or establish a line of credit

with Murad Auctions by calling (214) 720-4044 no later than 5pm on Friday, October 14, 2022. There will be no exceptions. Bank card purchases will be honored at our option.

10. These Conditions of Sale and the purchaser’s and our respective rights and obligations hereunder are governed by Texas law. By bidding at an auction, whether in person or by agent, telephone or other means, the purchaser or bidder agrees to be bound by these Conditions of Sale and to consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of, and the federal courts sitting in, the State of Texas. All of our obligations under these Conditions of Sale and the obligations of purchaser to pay, are performable in Dallas, Dallas County, Texas.

11. These Conditions of Sale shall bind the successors and assigns of all bidders and purchasers and inure to the benefit of our successors and assigns. No waiver, amendment or modification of the terms hereof (other than posted notices or oral announcements during the sale) shall bind us unless specifically stated in writing by us. If any part of these Conditions of Sale is for any reason invalid or unenforceable, the rest shall remain valid and enforceable.

12. As a service to those wishing to place bids, we may at our discretion accept bids without charge in advance of sale by telephone, or in writing on bidding forms available from us. “Buy” bids will not be acceptable; all bids must state the highest bid price the bidder is willing to pay. As noted above, a premium payable by the purchaser will be added to the bid price. In the event identical bids are submitted, the earliest will take precedence. Absentee bids shall be executed in competition with other absentee bids, any applicable reserve and bids from the audience. Successful absentee bids may not be acknowledged, but sale results and selling prices for any lot may be obtained by telephoning us during normal business hours. We assume no responsibility for failure to execute these bids for any reason whatsoever.

13. As a convenience to our clients, we furnish pre-sale estimates for all lots included in the catalogue. These are intended as an approximate guide to current market value, and should not be interpreted as a price or as an appraisal.

The final bid may well be less or more than any estimate printed.

14. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED ABOVE, ALL PROPERTY IS SOLD “AS-IS” AND NEITHER MURAD AUCTIONS, THE AUCTIONEER, DAVID DIKE, THE DAVID DIKE FINE ART AUCTION, DAVID DIKE FINE ART, L.L.C. OR DIKE MANAGEMENT LLC, NOR THE CONSIGNOR NOR THE AGENT OF ANY OF THEM MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIES, AS TO THE TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS OR CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY OR AS TO THE CORRECTNESS OF DESCRIPTION, GENUINENESS, ATTRIBUTION, PROVENANCE OR PERIOD OF THE PROPERTY OR AS TO WHETHER TH E P U R C H A SER ACQUIRES ANY COPYRIGHTS OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IN LOTS SOLD OR AS TO WHETHER A WORK OF ART IS SUBJECT TO THE ARTIST’S MORAL RIGHTS OR OTHER RESIDUAL RIGHTS OF THE ARTIST. 15.
