Welcome to OCTOBER

The October Estates Auction celebrates craftsmanship, storytelling and a love of collecting. From the intricately carved Rococo Revival furniture of Belter and Meeks to the warmly patinaed 17th-century Italian pieces and beautifully woven Flemish tapestries, this sale’s offerings span centuries.

The two-day sale, which takes place Oct. 18-19, features items from several noted Mississippi collections and estates–from the bluffs of Natchez, once one of the country’s wealthiest cities, to Greenville in the heart of the Mississippi Delta, renowned for its cultural and literary legacy. Additionally, the sale features prominent private collections from Birmingham, Houston, New Orleans and Palm Beach.

We are delighted to present Part Two of the Estate of Stella Sharp, a remarkable collector, hostess and businesswoman. Throughout her life, Stella amassed an extraordinary collection of silver, porcelain and decorative arts, while gracing countless gatherings with her style, warmth and generosity. Her Natchez shop, Sharp Designs and Works of Art, became as much a hub for Stella’s collecting pursuits as a touchpoint for bringing people together, one of her greatest gifts. A friend of the auction, Stella was a spirited and knowledgeable bidder. This sale continues the legacy of a woman whose passion for beauty inspired all who knew her.

We are also pleased to feature furniture, fine art, silver, and carpets descended from the Percy Family of Greenville, one of the Delta’s most influential dynasties, which helped shape the region’s civic and cultural identity over generations.

William Alexander Percy, lawyer, poet and author of Lanterns on the Levee (1941), transformed Greenville into a vibrant intellectual center, hosting figures such as Shelby Foote, Robert Penn Warren, Allen Tate, Langston Hughes and Dorothy Parker.

After the sudden deaths of his cousin and cousin’s wife, Percy took in their three sons, Walker, LeRoy and Phinizy. Influenced by his “Uncle Will,” Walker went on to win the National Book Award in 1962 for The Moviegoer . Pieces from the collections of LeRoy and Sarah Percy, and their daughter Sally “Pi” Percy Lewis, are also included in this sale.

Lastly, the auction offers an extensive selection of fine jewelry, including pieces by Van Cleef, Tiffany and David Webb; an impressive selection of carpets; a collection of Newcomb pottery; 17th- and 18thcentury Italian furniture; and fine silver ranging from Paul Storr and Gorham to Tiffany.

I invite you to explore these items and stories in more detail within the pages that follow. Our twoweek exhibition begins Monday, Oct. 6, and continues through Friday, Oct. 17, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Join us at our gallery on Thursday, Oct. 16, from 5 to 7:00 p.m. for an evening preview, paired with light bites and refreshments.

We look forward to seeing you!

BEAUTY Collector

ESTATE The of STELLA SHARP

For Stella Sharp of Natchez, Mississippi, antiques were a conduit for connection. She treasured opportunities for learning and immersing herself with beautiful, storied things, and relished the chance to share her knowledge and passion with others.

Sharp Designs and Works of Art became as much a hub for Stella’s collecting pursuits as it was a touchpoint for bringing people together, a gift that was at the heart of her work and life.

At New Orleans Auction, we had the opportunity to witness Stella’s luminous spirit. A friend of the auction, Stella was a spirited and knowledgeable bidder. More importantly, her warmth and generosity were felt in every interaction.We are honored to share her story in these pages.

Silver Linings

Stella Roper Sharp was born in Crystal Springs, Mississippi, in November 1928. During the tumultuous years of the Great Depression, she spent time at the Baptist Children’s Village in Jackson. Despite her unpredictable upbringing, Stella excelled academically and earned her spot in the National Honor Society at Central High School.

During World War II, after graduating from high school, Stella moved to New Orleans and worked in food service at military mess halls. A few years later, thanks to her excellent typing skills and proficiency at shorthand, Stella became the court stenographer in the Southeast Region of Mississippi.

Stella’s early life experiences fueled her desire to excel, a drive that remained fervent throughout her life. The ugliness she witnessed became a motivator for the beauty she pursued, created and personified over her 96 years of life.

At what would for others be “retirement age,” Stella earned her Bachelor’s degree from the New College at St. Edwards University in Austin. Remarkably, at the age of 75, she completed her coursework for a Master’s degree in Art History from Louisiana State University. When asked how she passed her French proficiency exam on the first try, she humbly responded, “I took French in high school!”

“They say every cloud has a silver lining. That was Stella. Her beauty was breathtaking. Her poise and posture were

unmistakable.

I think she was kind to

everyone

because she had experienced so much unkindness as a young adult.”

– Richard Crook, Friend

Beautiful Pursuits

Having grown up with very little, Stella treasured every little thing. Focusing on beautiful things, her loved ones say, may have allowed her to cope and overcome. Over the years, Stella cultivated a passion for creating and collecting.

Floral arrangements became her preferred creative expression. She competitively grew chrysanthemums and participated in local garden club flower shows, for which she served as a judge and instructor. As containers were an integral part of her floral designs, Stella soon acquired a love and curiosity for antique silver, porcelain and cloisonné. Before long, she’d expanded her knowledge of the decorative arts, amassing a beloved collection of serving dishes, fabrics, candles, garlands, table runners, tablecloths and more.

A voracious learner, Stella took courses on floral design, participated in forums on antiques and silver and studied American fine arts. As her eight children grew out of the house, Stella ventured to New York City to participate in Sotheby’s decorative arts appraisal course.

With a deep love and understanding of the decorative arts, and of silver in particular, Stella became an avid collector and an enthusiastic bidder at auction. New Orleans Auction is privileged to have counted Stella among our frequent clients. In every interaction, her warmth and generosity were as evident as her genuine excitement for beautiful, storied items.

“Auctions provided her with an expert assessment, keeping her apprised of antiques’ history, beauty and craftsmanship. She appreciated auctions’ role in preserving these art forms.”

– Sherry Hanson, Daughter

collections

Over the years, Stella amassed an extensive and thoughtfully assembled collection of silver and porcelain. She loved sharing her deep knowledge and collection of American Coin Silver, Sterling Silver and Sheffield Silver Plate with everyone she met, polishing her pieces until her last days.

Stella’s shop became a hub for her collecting pursuits and a touchpoint for countless connections. Sharp Designs and Works of Art made a national name for itself, as much for its impressive selection as for Stella, who delighted customers with the stories behind antiques.

Beauty, knowledge and connection were at the forefront of everything Stella did and in who she was as a wife, mother, friend and hostess.

Joyful Gatherings

Stella’s vibrant approach to hosting stemmed from her gift of bringing people together. Whether it was greeting a stranger, meeting new friends, arranging flowers or hosting a tea party, she most enjoyed spreading joy.

Stella always brought the party to life. Whether transforming the Natchez Convention Center into Camelot, recreating the Moulin Rouge on a rooftop or forming a German beer garden in a restaurant’s dining room, if she could imagine it, the space would become it. With seeming ease and a detailed eye, Stella transformed even the most unexpected spaces into elegant grand halls, lush Scottish gardens and roaring ‘20s speakeasies.

“You want people to feel welcomed at any party. You want them to feel joy. To me, any social

occasion broadens our participation in the beauty of life.

I don’t consider parties frivolous.”

–

Stella Sharp

Food, too, held an important place at Stella’s table, and her thematic menus provided another creative outlet. While cooking wasn’t her strength, she relished her daughter Liza’s culinary expertise and always welcomed the opportunity to contribute to a well-set table with an abundant potato salad or her signature and most loved stuffed eggs.

With her magical touch, Stella made even the most complex and tedious party tasks seem effortless. To her, festivities were a conduit to good music, good dancing and even better conversations.

mediocre would do. She wanted to help others make life special. She had excellent taste and a thirst for quality of life.”

– Sherry Hanson, Daughter

Stella passed away in December 2024 at the age of 96. A mother of eight, grandmother to 14 and great-grandmother to seven, she leaves behind a lasting legacy of generosity, resilience, curiosity and beauty.

New Orleans Auction is honored to present Part Two of The Estate of Stella Sharp.

The

BELTER FURNITURE Enduring of explorations LEGACY

Written by / Greg S. Kowles

Few artisans shape a style so completely that their name becomes shorthand for its finest expressions. John Henry Belter did just that.

Born in Germany in 1804, Belter immigrated to the United States in 1833. Having apprenticed under a furniture maker in Stuttgart, Belter was already quite accomplished in his craft before he arrived in New York. By 1844, he had established himself as a respected cabinetmaker, and within a decade, he had built his acclaimed five-story factory in Manhattan.

B explorations

elter specialized in making furniture in the French-inspired Rococo Revival style and became best known for his technical innovations, for which he received several patents, including for his distinctive plywood lamination technique. This approach utilizes steam and pressure to bend and compress up to 21 layers of wood, significantly enhancing the material’s strength. Belter’s use of this technique allowed him to make furniture that was lighter yet stronger than solid hardwood furniture, as well as produce intricately undulated forms on the backs of chairs and sofas. One of his boldest and most famous claims was that you could throw one of his chairs out of a third-story window and it would not break!

The strength of Belter’s legacy is evident in his style’s lasting impact on American design. For nearly a century following his sudden death in 1863, any furniture of the period with the carving or the styling of the Rococo Revival was referred to as “Belter furniture.” While his family attempted to carry on the business without him, his absence was evident; the company went bankrupt in 1865.

Having combined craftsmanship with technological innovation, Belter undoubtedly became one of the most prominent American cabinetmakers of his time. His work remains extremely coveted by collectors today.

New Orleans Auction is thrilled to offer many rare examples of Belter’s characteristic creations in this sale, including an armchair and six side chairs in the “Patent Pattern,” for which Belter received a patent. We would also like thank the authors of The Furniture of John Henry Belter and the Rococo Revival for their scholarship and thorough examination of Belter’s technical innovations.

The Architectural Legacy of the Historic

Patrick F. Taylor Library

Written by / Valeria L. Palmertree

With its thick, copper-colored walls, semicircular arched entrance and rounded towers, the Historic Patrick F. Taylor Library appears to have been plucked out of medieval Europe, yet is located in the vibrant Warehouse Arts District of downtown New Orleans. The story behind this architectural treasure is thus a long and winding one, rich with historic significance.

The imposing building was originally conceived by Charles T. Howard, president of the Louisiana State Lottery Company. It is believed that before his unexpected death in 1885, Howard had discussed the potential design and construction of the library with the esteemed American architect and Louisiana native Henry Hobson Richardson.

During the last decade of his life, Richardson designed and built six important public libraries in the Northeast and submitted a design for the commission of a library in East Saginaw, Michigan. While his design was not chosen, it became the foundation for Howard’s vision. It would also be the last of Richardson’s library works and his only one in the South. He, too, fell fatally ill in 1886.

The men’s shared vision would find its way to fruition, however. The Howard Memorial Library was dedicated on March 4, 1889, coinciding with the late Howard’s birthday and with Lundi Gras, New Orleans’s festive “Fat Monday.”

While the Howard Memorial Library opened as a Louisiana reference library, its collections were transferred to Tulane University in the mid-20th century. During the 1940s, the space was used as a storage site for “Bundles for Britain.” After several other transformations, which included a radio station, office spaces and even a law firm, Patrick F. Taylor and Phyllis Taylor purchased the building in 1988 and ushered in the library’s centennial with a major restoration project. On June 21, 1989, it was rededicated as the Patrick F. Taylor Library.

Now owned by Ogden Museum of Southern Art, University of New Orleans, the Historic Patrick F. Taylor serves as an undeniably unique venue for special events and gatherings.

Castle-Like Grandeur

Richardson’s acclaimed design aesthetic was so distinct that a new architectural style was named after him: Richardsonian Romanesque. The Historic Patrick F. Taylor Library is a stellar example of his characteristic work.

The exterior’s dark brown stone came from the Kibbe quarry in Massachusetts and its red terracotta roof tiles from Akron, Ohio. Inside, the dome-vaulted, wooden ceiling and rounded walls provide a rich, castle-like atmosphere reminiscent of a castle’s grandeur. The interior was crafted primarily with polished white oak and gray sandstone accents, all gleaming with the combination of chandeliers and natural lighting. One of the most intricately carved elements on the library’s interior is the seal of the City of New Orleans, located over the entry door.

The library’s rich history, ornate craftsmanship and luminous atmosphere provided the warm and rich backdrop for the photos that make up our October Estates Auction catalogue.

Seeing the South Anew

Located in the vibrant Warehouse Arts District of downtown New Orleans since 1999 and open to the public since 2003, Ogden Museum of Southern Art invites visitors to experience and learn about the artists and culture of the American South.

Property Descended in the Family of William Alexander Percy

Greenville, Mississippi

(LOTS 35-63)

The Percy Family was among the most influential planter families of the Delta, helping shape the cultural and civic identity of the region for generations.

William Alexander Percy (1885-1942) was a prominent lawyer, poet and author. In his best-selling memoir, Lanterns on the Levee: Recollections of a Planter’s Son (1941), Percy explores complex issues of tradition, race and change in the South with both lyricism and candor.

Percy was educated at University of the South (Sewanee) and Harvard Law School, and spent formative time abroad before reluctantly returning to Greenville. Though hesitant to resume the life of a planter, he assumed a central role in the town during turbulent years marked by the rise of the Ku Klux Klan, the catastrophic flood of 1927 and the economic struggles of The Great Depression.

After the sudden deaths of his cousin and cousin’s wife, Percy took in their three sons, Walker, LeRoy and Phinizy, becoming their “Uncle Will.” His home became an intellectual salon that attracted leading Southern writers and artists. Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Hodding Carter, novelist and historian

Shelby Foote, poet Allen Tate, novelist Caroline Gordon, author and poet Robert Penn Warren, poet and social activist Langston Hughes and poet and literary critic Dorothy Parker were among those who gathered in Percy's garden. This circle transformed Greenville into an unlikely literary hub, its influence stretching far beyond the Delta.

Guided in his youth by his uncle’s moral and intellectual influence, Walker Percy became one of the most acclaimed American novelists of the twentieth century. He went on to win the National Book Award in 1962 for The Moviegoer, a novel that, like his adoptive father’s memoir, probed questions of identity, tradition and the search for meaning in modern Southern life.

LeRoy and his wife, Sarah, shared a passion for travel and collecting. They filled their Bayou Road home with treasures, often acquired with the guidance of New Orleans antiquarian Don Didier. Their daughter, Sally “Pi” Percy Lewis, and her husband, Howard “Buster” Lewis, continued this legacy with taste and sophistication.

New Orleans Auction is pleased to offer property from the collections of William Alexander Percy and the Percy Family.

ca. 1800, the cove-molded crest with a stepped base, the double upper doors set with eight lights, both upper and lower doors with scratch-beaded edges, the whole raised on bracket feet with a scalloped apron. h. 89-1/2”, w. 49”, d. to corner 29”

Exhibition: Mairie du Pont-Aven, “Gauguin et ses Amis”, #141.

The authenticity of this painting has been confirmed by Antoine Laurentin and it will be included in the archives of the catalogue raisonne of the artist.

A native of Nantes, Puigaudeau did not begin to paint in earnest until he returned from travels in Italy and Tunisia. Settling in the Breton village of Pont-Aven, he soon became ensconced in the local, vibrant art community which included such luminaries as Charles Laval, Paul Gauguin, Claude Monet, and Pierre August Renoir. With their emphasis on bold colors and strong light, the artists of the Pont-Aven School were progressive, popular, influential and amongst them were the future leaders of numerous significant art movements including Symbolism and Synthetism. Even within such an esteemed group of artists, the Impressionist Puigaudeau was acclaimed for his sun-drenched, luminous landscapes of the Breton countryside, which frequently incorporated figures and aspects of rural life. His technique was to carefully apply numerous layers of bold, bright colors with small, vigorous brushstrokes. The success of his style and approach is evidenced in the work offered here with its light-dappled trees and the shimmering golds and greens of the foliage flanking the lone, central figure. This painting was included in an exhibition held at the City Hall in Pont Aven entitled "Gauguin et ses Amis".

18” x 24”

$4,000-$7,000

Born in Fayette, Missouri, Roger Medearis grew up among the rolling hills and lush beauty of the Midwestern landscape. At eighteen years old, he enrolled at the Kansas City Art Institute where he studied with Thomas Hart Benton, who was, at the time, at the forefront of the Regionalist art movement. For Medearis, this allowed him to paint what he knew: farmlands of Missouri, local flora and fauna of the Midwest, and meditations on the natural world. However, as World War II ended, so too did the heyday of Regionalist fine art, and Medearis quit painting to join the corporate world. As Abstract Expressionism came to dominate the market, Medearis became a leading salesman for Container Corp. of America.

It wasn’t until the mid-1960s that he would begin to work again; encouraged by his wife, he produced a strong body of work reminiscent of his younger years, including paintings, drawings, prints, and bronzes. He worked intermittently until his death, achieving the success that had eluded him in the post-war years. Today, his work can be found in the National Museum of American Art in Washington, D.C., the NelsonAtkins Museum in Kansas City, and in a number of prominent private collections across the nation.

Brandan “BMIKE” Odums (American/New Orleans, Contemporary)

“James Gallier”, 2014

acrylic and oil on canvas signed lower right, and signed and dated en verso. Unframed.

87-1/2” x 48-1/2”

$1,200-$1,800

A New Orleans native, Brandan “BMIKE” Odums’ work presents a dialogue between fine art and historicity. Through murals, paintings, installations, and film, Odums depicts historical figures, contemporaries, and ordinary people in a realist manner while maintaining a bold, playful color palette. This confluence of realism and abstraction conveys a courageous spirit that unites all of Odums’ subjects, regardless of race, gender, or time.

In the present lot, Odums depicts James Gallier, the famed architect whose designs shape the image of New Orleans still to this day. His most recognizable achievement is Gallier Hall, a stunning example of Greek Revival architecture, which served as City Hall until 1957. Surrounded by blueprints, the local skyline, and instruments of architecture, Gallier is portrayed almost as a religious figure, complete with a halo, recognizing his patronage as a powerful and lasting force on the city.

48” x 108-1/2”

$2,000-$4,000

An acclaimed postmodern painter, Ciel Bergman, previously Cheryl Bowers, was originally an obstetrics nurse and single mother of two. After winning first place in painting in the Jack London Invitational, she decided to return to school and received her MFA from the San Francisco Art Institute. Early on, she crossed paths with Georgia O’Keeffe, who inspired Bergman to focus her abstractions on the power of nature and feminine consciousness. For the remainder of her celebrated career, she strove to paint transcendental emotionality, combining a dynamic color palette with appropriated images. She is still known presently as one of the masters of postmodernism. Today, her work can be found in private and public collections throughout the United States, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City; the National Gallery, Washington, DC; and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art.

Attributed to Cosmo John Alexander (Scottish/American, 1724-1772)

In an antique frame.

49-1/2” x 40, framed 65” x 53-1/2”

$1,500-$2,500

Provenance: Sold in these galleries at the William E. Groves Estate Auction, June 7, 1993; private collection, New Orleans, Louisiana.

Cosmo John Alexander's life was dominated by his Scottish heritage and allegiance to the Jacobite cause, which aimed to restore the Stuart's catholic monarchy to the British throne. The son of a Scottish artist, he became an accomplished portraitist in both Europe and America. Alexander's support of the defeated Jacobite Rising in 1745 forced his exile from Scotland. While traveling in Europe, he earned portrait commissions, many from fellow exiled Jacobite supporters. In 1766, he traveled to the British colonies, settled in Philadelphia, and solicited portraits from the local Scottish immigrant communities.

In 1768, William Franklin, Royal Governor of New Jersey, invited Alexander to stay at the governor's mansion in Burlington. The son of American statesman Benjamin Franklin, he was a steadfast British Empire Loyalist which caused a political rift between himself and his father. Alexander stayed for several weeks receiving patrons and painting portraits. This portrait was likely painted during Alexander's extended visit at the New Jersey governor's mansion. In the portrait of William Franklin, Alexander featured a classical column revealed behind a curtain and a desk topped with an inkwell, quill pens and stack of papers symbolizing the sitter's power and significance.

A year later, Alexander accepted the fourteen-year-old Gilbert Stuart, the son of Scottish immigrants, as an apprentice. With Stuart, Alexander traveled south to Williamsburg and Charleston earning portrait commissions.

An avid art collector, William E. Groves amassed over 1500 paintings, prints, watercolors, daguerreotypes, and miniatures which included over fifty portraits which he stored in the expansive historic building at 502 Frenchman Street. Groves wrote,

“Collecting is a vice that breaks no competition from other vices. It is a passion that grows and dominates until you stand trembling before the object of your desire, determined to own it at all costs while earnestly striving to conceal your cupidity lest it affect the price.”

Groves was mentored and initially inspired to collect by Dr. Isaac Monroe Cline, U.S. Meteorologist and shop proprietor of The Art House on St. Peter Street in the French Quarter. This portrait attributed to Cosmos Alexander was previously part of the William E. Groves collection. 276

In July 1824, Marquis de Lafayette, the last surviving major general of the American Revolutionary War, accepted an invitation from his friend President James Monroe and Congress to visit the United States. Throughout his twenty-four states tour, Lafayette received a hero’s welcome and was greeted with public celebrations, music, and monuments to memorialize his visit. The publicís fascination with the visit of Lafayette sparked a lively industry in souvenirs.

The linen handkerchief printed was a commemorative souvenir, depicting Lafayette's arrival at Independence Hall in a horse-drawn carriage accompanied by a procession of soldiers, and then his arrival in New York Harbor aboard the ship Cadmus before an animated crowd along the shore.

Important American Gothic Revival Rosewood and MarbleTop Center Table

$20,000-$40,000

The design for this iconic table is attributed to the New York architect Alexander Jackson Davis (1803-1892), who is noted for designing the famous country villa Kenwood, located outside of Albany, New York, and built in 1842 for industrialist Joel Rathbone. An illustration of the drawing room at Kenwood is featured in Andrew Jackson Downing’s book, The Architecture of Country Houses, and shows an example of this Gothic table as its centerpiece. The present table is part of an elite group of American Gothic Revival furniture, the most notable of which is a table that was purchased for the Davis-designed Gothic villa Belmead, in Powhatan County, Virginia, about 1845. That table sold in these galleries in 2000 for a record $233,500.00, and is now in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago. Other examples of this form are in the collections of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, George (The Virginia Carroll Crawford Collection), The Detroit Institute of Arts, The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Audubon wrote of the Hermit Thrush:

“This, kind reader, is another constant resident in the Southern States, more especially those of Mississippi and Louisiana, where it abounds during the winter months, and is found in considerable numbers during spring and summer...

This Thrush prefers the darkest, most swampy, and most secluded cane-brakes along the margins of the Mississippi, where it breeds and spends the summer.

The flight of the Hermit Thrush is performed low over the ground, and in a gliding manner, as the bird shifts from one place to another at a short distance.”

– John James Audubon

In the late summer of 1821, John James Audubon visited Oakley Plantation in St. Francisville, Louisiana. Upon his arrival, Audubon wrote, “The rich magnolias covered with fragrant blossoms, the holly, the beech, the tall yellow poplar, the hilly ground and even the red clay, all excited my admiration. Such an entire change in the fall of nature in so short a time seems almost supernatural, and surrounded once more by numberless warblers and thrushes, I enjoyed the scene.” The painting for the engraving Pine Creeping Warbler was created during Audubon’s stay in St. Francisville.

Ada Mary Wilt Lonnegan

(American/Louisiana, 1879-1963, act. Newcomb College 1896-1906)

In remembrance of her daughter, Josephine Newcomb donated the funds to establish the H. Sophie Newcomb Memorial College in 1886 for the education of women within Tulane University. Cincinnati ceramic artist Mary Sheerer was hired in 1894, and she initially worked on testing glazes and clays, and taught classes on China paintings. Under the influence of the brothers Ellsworth and William Woodward as well as Sheerer, Newcomb Pottery continually expanded and focused on green and blue color schemes, using southern clay and depictions of regional images of nature that were personally familiar to the decorators.

Ada Wilt Lonnegan was among the earliest students to enroll in the ceramic program and was an active participant during the experimental and formative years of Newcomb Pottery. In 1899, Lonnegan graduated from the Normal Art Course and continued her studies at Newcomb College until 1906. One of her vases was among the twenty-three pieces exhibited in the Newcomb Pottery display in the Palace of Fine Arts at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition in St. Louis that collectively earned a silver medal. Calligraphy was a specialty of Lonnegan which she would incorporate in her ceramic designs. She married in 1896; the year she started to attend Newcomb College. Interestingly, she was one of the few married students to attend Newcomb College. They would have three children and apparently, she gave up her artistic career to raise her children.

$2,500-$4,000

Provenance: Descended in the family of the artist.

The lack of a potter’s mark and the early date of the charming “Pomegranate and Morning Lily Plate” reveals that it was likely decorated by Ada Wilt Lonnegan using a pre-made blank plate in a China painting class, which Mary Sheerer taught during her initial years at Newcomb College. China painting was a popular art movement for women in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, starting in Cincinnati under the influence of the talented ceramicists Mary Louie McLaughlin and Maria Longworth Nichols.

Rockefeller, financier, philanthropist, and founder of the University of Chicago, the two hinged banks swinging open to reveal numerous cubbies and compartments, the drop-down lid with an inset leather blotter, opening to additional drawers and compartments, the interior finished in choice bird’s-eye maple, retaining its original finish and line-gilt decor, along with two working keys. h. 68”, w. 37-1/2”, d. 28”

$10,000-$15,000

The accompanying black and white image shows Rockefeller’s actual desk, from the Archival Photographic Files, University of Chicago Library, Special Collections Research Center.

Entrepreneur William S. Wooton, Indianapolis, Indiana, received a patent for his desk design in 1874. The desk was introduced at a time when small business owners were seeing an increase in daily correspondence and paperwork. Then came the need for adequate storage and retrieval of files. An early advertisement for the Wooton desk described the model as follows:

“Everything that ingenuity can suggest or devise to facilitate desk labor, has been introduced in our secretary...Its comprehensive character is such that ample accommodations are afforded for the requirements of the most voluminous business. Every facility is furnished for a thorough and systematic classification of books, papers, memorandums, etc. Through its aid the usual fret and worry of office work is converted into a positive pleasure. It is a miniature counting-house, with a combination of such conveniences as are found best adapted for the manipulation of office work, and these all under one lock and key.”

Several prominent figures owned Wooton desks, including businessmen, presidents, and even royalty. These included John D. Rockefeller, Ulysses S. Grant, Joseph Pulitzer, and Queen Victoria. Other notable owners were Jay Gould, Charles Scribner, and Madam C.J. Walker. The desks were highly sought-after status symbols in the late 19th century due to their innovative design and functionality. They were considered “The King of Desks.”

John D. Rockefeller:

A key figure in the oil industry, Rockefeller’s wealth and influence made him a prime candidate for owning such a prestigious desk.

Ulysses S. Grant:

As a former President, Grant’s ownership of a Wooton desk underscored its appeal to powerful individuals.

Joseph Pulitzer:

A renowned newspaper publisher, Pulitzer’s purchase of a Wooton desk highlights its popularity among influential figures in the media and business worlds.

Queen Victoria:

The reported commission of a Wooton desk by Queen Victoria further solidified its status as a symbol of prestige and luxury.

Madam C.J. Walker:

A successful entrepreneur and philanthropist, Walker’s ownership of a Wooton desk suggests its appeal to prominent women of the era.

Jay Gould:

A prominent figure in the railroad industry, Gould’s acquisition of a Wooton desk demonstrated its value to financiers and businessmen.

Charles Scribner:

As a publisher, Scribner’s purchase of a Wooton desk reflected the desk’s popularity within the publishing and literary circles.

"They feel like beautiful great paintings in spite of being photographic, and of sculpture, and perforated and on paper and collaged and melanged and dipped and shredded and lit and discolored and reversed and cropped and blown up and pinned and all... Visually, they achieve an almost Rubenesque painterly breath of quality in the way that the portraits of the wax portraits look like oil paintings with all their inner light releasing itself."

–Edit de Ak

In 1985, the Israeli artist Izhar Patkin began to experiment with a truly innovative technique: large-scale perforated photographic prints. Employing images from his repertoire of wax characters, the resulting works are translucent, luminescent, and oddly compelling. As the critic Susan Martin stated, "...through their grotesqueness, these portraits speak of a forbidden and formidable 'Other' ... I was touched by their tenderness and vulnerability. As they simultaneously attract and repulse, they can make you laugh or they can make you cry."

At the 1989 Galleria d'Arte exhibition of Portrait of a Bust three wax, tulle and plaster busts were posed on pedestals before their corresponding perforated prints. These figures, Tom/Mot, Mot/Tom, and Rosita are slyly clever interpretations of the gargoyles perched atop the edifice of the Baroque Villa Palagonia (colloquially referred to as the Villa dei Mostri , Villa of the Monsters) in Bagheria, Sicily. By isolating these figures from their somewhat cluttered and chaotic surroundings, Patkin has revealed the humanity beneath the "monstrous" surface.

The New England landscape appears to have made a lasting impression on the aspiring artist. In both her paintings and the backgrounds of her portraits, she often incorporated elements of the northern landscape.

In 1958, Bannister moved to New Orleans, where she joined the artists along Jackson Square in the French Quarter. In the late 1960s, she and her husband moved to the Mississippi Gulf Coast where her romantic realistic portraits of young girls earned her acclaim.

In 1940, Robert "Robin" Field became the Director of the Newcomb College School of Art, Tulane University. Field sought to distance the school from the former Newcomb Pottery enterprise, instead looking to establish a more diverse and modernist program. Field hired Louisiana artist Jules Struppeck in 1946 to teach in the school's sculpture department. A graduate of the University of Oklahoma and Louisiana State University, Struppeck was proficient in a variety of sculptural materials and methods and was instrumental in establishing the Newcomb Sculpture Foundry in the late 1950’s. Struppeck spent 34 years teaching at Newcomb College and retired in 1980 as the head of the sculpture department. A notable group of sculptors that studied under him at Newcomb College include Lynda Benglis, Mignon Faget, and Arthur Kern.

In 1952, he authored the book The Creation of Sculpture where he expressed his philosophy on sculpture and provided chapters on different sculptural techniques. Struppeck wrote "In relation to space, sculptural ideas are ideas of actuality-that is, they are concepts of the objects that will exist tactually as well as visually in space. Form, concept, and material can never be completely separated."

In 1954, Struppeck was invited to exhibit at the Whitney Museum of American Art’s Annual Exhibition of Contemporary American Sculpture, Watercolors and Drawings. Throughout his artistic career, he earned commissions including two wood sculptures for the U.S. Marine Hospital Gym in uptown New Orleans, a large bronze of "Justice" for the exterior of the Iberia Courthouse, and a wood sculpture of "Cotton Pickers" for the Many, Louisiana post office in 1941, funded by the Treasury Relief Art Project, a New Deal arts program.

Conceived by Mary Moffett and Elizabeth Bethea, professors at Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, the sculpture "The Lady of the Mist" was a collaboration between Duncan Ferguson and Jules Struppeck with funds provided by the Women’s Panhellenic Association of Ruston in 1938. Placed in a fountain on the main campus, the intent of the figure with her outstretched arms was to both greet the freshmen to campus and wish the graduates a fond farewell.

Enrique Alferez, the Mexican-born sculptor was a friend and colleague of Struppeck with both artists working in the art deco style. Struppeck assisted Alferez in casting his sculptures at the Newcomb Foundry. For the "Two Women" sculpture, Struppeck worked with terra cotta clay and favored live models. The carved geometric carved base was created to support the sculpture, compliment it stylistically, and bring it to eye level.

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. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty against redhibitory defects, including without limitation: (x) any defects rendering a Lot useless or its use inconvenient; and (y) any defects diminishing the usefulness of a Lot; and any such warranties are 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. Buyer is buying at Buyer’s sole risk and peril as to third parties who may claim rights in the Lot after the Sale.

(iv) No warranty as to authorship. NOAG does not make any express or implied warranty as to authorship of works of art and fine art. 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.

(v) No warranty of peaceful possession, etc. The following warranties are waived and excluded: the absence of hidden defects, peaceful possession, and ownership. NOAG and Seller provide absolutely no warranty that the Lot is free from hidden defects, or for peaceful possession, or for ownership.

(vi) No other warranties. None of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, give any representation, warranty or guarantee or assume any liability of any kind in respect of any Lot with regard to merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, description, size, quality, condition, attribution, authenticity, rarity, importance, medium, provenance, exhibition history, literature or historical relevance. 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 [subject to a $30 fee for domestic wires and a $60 fee for international wires] 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 12% 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 antiterrorism 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. By bidding at the Auction and/or through execution of the attached registration form, the Bidder consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Louisiana and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the Eastern District of Louisiana.
