The Collection of Alonzo and Gretchen Lansford Alonzo Lansford, Jr (1910-1978) and his wife, Gretchen Van Sant Lansford (1908-1978), avid art collectors, painters, and restorers, lived in New Orleans for the majority of their adult lives. Active in the art community from the 1940s, the couple lived at Villa Meilleur on Governor Nicholls Street in the Tremé; the property now houses the New Orleans AfricanAmerican Museum. While Gretchen Lansford was a well-known New Orleans conservator, Alonso Lansford was the first professional director of the Isaac Delgado Museum of Art, now the New Orleans Museum of Art. Serving as director from 1948-1957, Lansford had previously worked as a staff writer for Art Digest in New York and as the head of the Savannah Art Museum. His work at Delgado set a precedent for adding to the museum’s collection; Lansford was responsible for acquiring the Kress Collection, the Billups Collection, and donations from the Bultman family. The procurement of these works of art was the commencement of decades of expanding the museum’s holdings into the world-class establishment it is Gretchen and Alonzo Lansford (second and third from right) receive the late-night arrival of the Kress Collection at the Delgado Museum (now New Orleans Museum of Art) in 1952. today, boasting a wide variety of collections including American, The Samuel H. Kress Foundation donated thirty-two paintings which formed the basis of the European paintings collection at the Museum. European, Asian, African, and Oceanic Art.

The Asian Art Collection of Maurice and Eunice Lion Neal Auction Company is pleased to present the Asian art collection of Maurice (19252015) and Eunice (1930-2017) Lion within its Summer Estates Auction. Both Maurice and Eunice were world travelers. As a Merchant Marine during World War II, Maurice traveled extensively throughout Asia, where a passion for the arts and culture of the countries he visited developed. His first acquisition was a cloisonné vase from Japan, but he soon developed a taste for jade, jadeite, silver, hardwood, cloisonné, and other works from China. Maurice worked meticulously to gather pieces for his growing collection. As a self-taught collector, he acquired almost anything that caught his keen eye. The collection grew so vast that Maurice installed a “jade room” within his Metairie home that incorporated rubber flooring and rows of glass cases to protect his beloved objects. Amassed over a span of seventy years, the collection offered here represents one man’s tireless and impassioned love of Asian art.

Rare Chinese Silver Vase, late 19th/20th c., h. 34 1/4 in., electrified.

167. Continental School, late 18th/early 19th c., “William Prince of Orange (1772‑1843)”, oil on canvas, unsigned, 2 partial handwritten period labels en verso, one identifying sitter and one illegible, 49 1/2 in. x 40 1/4 in., period gilt frame. $15000/25000 Note: William VI, Prince of Orange-Nassau, who later became William I, King of the Netherlands and Grand Duke of Luxembourg, was born in The Hague to William V, Prince of Orange (17481806), and Wilhelmina of Prussia (1751-1820). Although William did not inherit his titles until his father’s death in 1806, he was trained from an early age in the military arts and attended military academy. During the Flanders Campaign of 1793-95, where the allied British, Dutch, Austrian, and Prussian forces attempted to invade France, William took part in many crucial battles, including those in Veurne, Menen, Wervik, and Fleurus. Initially a successful campaign, the French forces eventually forced the Allies to withdraw from their territory. It is likely during the aforementioned victorious stages of the campaign that the portrait presented in this lot was created by a court painter. In the scene, a young Prince William is depicted directing a cavalry assault on a defensive army, drawn up at the foot of the prominent outcrop in the distance. His demonstrative gesture follows a well-known pattern: a fine example of its use is in a notable portrait by Nicholas de Largillière of “Sir Robert Throckmorton” of 1729, in the collection of the National Trust of U.K., currently on loan to H.M. Treasury. Exiled to Britain and Prussia while first the Batavian Republic and then the French Empire under Napoleon held control of the Netherlands, William continued to fight against the French, leading Prussian and Austrian troops until 1813, when Tsar Alexander I supported William’s successful restoration as ruler of the Netherlands. Trading with his Prussian relatives, William gained the title of Grand Duke of Luxembourg in exchange for his Prussian lands near Nassau. Additionally, William was given control of the Austrian Netherlands and Liège, uniting the majority of lands that today comprise the countries of Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg; he formally became ruler of the United Kingdom of the Netherlands in 1815. As king, William sought to unite his subjects, a difficult task, as the North mostly consisted of Dutch Protestants, while the South was comprised of both French and Dutch-speaking Catholics. William’s preference for Protestantism in part led the Southerners to revolt, separate from the Netherlands, and form an independent Belgian nation. Although William fought to reunite his kingdom, he was unsuccessful and officially abdicated his throne to his son, William II, in 1840. 168.

Note: Opened in 1888 on Baronne Street, the New Orleans Art Pottery Company employed potters Joseph Meyer and George Ohr, and was run by William and Ellsworth Woodward, who taught the female students classes on drawing and decorating pottery. This broad view of the drying room depicts the location where the thrown pots would be stored in preparation for firing in the large kilns. The same room is depicted in an oil painting by William Woodward now located in the collection of the Biloxi Public Library. In that painting, Woodward focuses on the potter’s wheel in front of the windows and depicts George Ohr throwing a pot in the foreground with Joseph Meyer in the background. The intriguing composition of the drawing offered in this lot, gives us great insight into the inner workings of the New Orleans Art Pottery Company, a forerunner to Newcomb Art Pottery.

A grove of cypress trees anchors the large composition on the right as the lakeshore strewn with debris and barren tree roots curves to the left. A vivid blue sky is reflected in the lake waters. Boyle’s home in Lewisburg was a turn-of-the-century gathering place for artists such as Ellsworth and William Woodward, Alexander Drysdale and Andres Molinary.

Note: In the vibrant, predominantly turquoise, painting of 1986 by Ida Kohlmeyer offered here, the artist’s signature vocabulary of glyphs, each almost its own brightly-hued miniature painting, has broken free of the grid system she employed in the 1970s and early 1980s to float across the canvas in a cacophony of shapes and colors. The glyphs hint at familiar shapes, each undergoing a dimensional distortion that further adds to the overall feeling of movement and vitality. Semiotics, the study of signs and symbols, could not be more apropos as a title for this short-lived yet important series, and it acknowledges, as do many of Kohlmeyer’s titles (Cluster, Syntax, Rebus, and Synthesis to name a few) the dialogue of interpretation her canvases inspire with their viewers.

225. Ida Rittenberg Kohlmeyer (American/ New Orleans, 1912‑1997), “Crux Series”, oil on canvas, signed lower center, 32 1/4 in. x 47 1/2 in., period frame. $10000/15000 Note: From 1967 to 1969, Ida Kohlmeyer created several new series including “Crux,” “Rondo,” and “Chrysalis,” all of which focused on combining organic forms, geometric shapes, and concentric circles. Her works from this time period have often been compared to those of Georgia O’Keeffe, particularly O’Keeffe’s magnified views of the reproductive organs of flowers. While Kohlmeyer’s paintings are more stylized and abstract than those of O’Keeffe, there is a distinct correlation between the manner in which the two artists connect the idea of female sexuality with forms on the canvas that begin in the center and expand toward the edges. The “Crux” series, however, inserts an additional cruciform element to the combination. Distinct similarities exist between the current lot and “Crux #11,” illustrated in Ida Kohlmeyer: Thirty Years. Both paintings have vertical-format, diamond and cross-form compositions with concentric circle centers, which combine to perfectly illustrate the artist’s experimentation with geometric abstraction.

227. George Rodrigue (American/Louisiana, 1944‑2013), “Deep Love”, 1998, acrylic on canvas, signed lower left, signed, dated and titled en verso, 24 in. x 18 in., framed. $25000/35000 Provenance: Galerie Blue Dog, Carmel, CA. Note: Flowers are a recurring motif in George Rodrigue’s work, accompanying his Cajun figures and Blue Dogs to appear in hundreds of paintings over the course of his career. The early flowers, particularly Azalea bushes, were representative of the Louisiana landscape, although they often morphed into large masses of color on the dark canvases. With the Blue Dog series, particularly beginning in the mid-1990s, the flowers became a frequent element and an important compositional tool for the artist. The flowers are simple, bright in color and nonspecific. The artist was quoted as saying: “People ask me what kind of flowers they are, but I have no idea. They’re just petals with eyes in them to me.” In fact, the flowers often mimicked the eyes of the Blue Dog with round centers and bright colors, reinforcing the idea of the Blue Dog watching and questioning the viewer. A romantic at heart, Rodrigue often combined the flowers with hearts, embracing the universal symbols of love. In “Deep Love” of 1998 offered here, the Blue Dog is highlighted by a simple red flower on its chest, a tattoo of sorts, that emphasizes the iconic shape of the Blue Dog glowing against a black background and further supports the artist’s amorous title.

Martin base, overall h. 15 1/4 in. $4000/6000 Note: Chancing upon a welding and pottery studio in Vallauris, France, a young André Harvey decided to apprentice with the sculptor and learn welding, beginning his career as an artist. Harvey’s background in welding has often been put to use in his sculptures. Describing the process of creating the delicate tree frogs offered here, Harvey writes, “The hardest problem was sculpting the small hands and feet…I ended up making them out of welded steel using a jeweler’s torch.” This meticulous attention to detail is displayed not only in the tree frogs’ rendering, but throughout Harvey’s entire body of work. The realism and careful depiction of Harvey’s animals create a beautiful naturalism.

The artist’s work from the beginning has explored innovative materials and techniques and the relationship between the intended and unintended. Perhaps inspired by his work as a land developer, Dunbar transformed the painterly traits of the New York School into dynamic assemblages of natural elements, such as clay, tempera and metal leaf. In the work offered here from Dunbar’s Figurative series, the artist utilizes colored clays to create recognizable female figures that are also abstract, a fundamental play of texture and form. Reminiscent of his three-dimensional “action sculptures,” the work recalls ancient Greek and Roman sculptural fragments set against a twodimensional, abstracted and lush surface. Ref.: Pfohl, Katie.

Note: Renowned New Mexico artist Walt Johnston studied at the Art Institute of Chicago during the 1940s and earned national recognition as early as 1948. The artist defines his work as contemporary realism and says of the world around him: “All the sound ends in silence, and the silence never dies. I try to paint the silence. After all, the ultimate abstraction is reality.” In the expansive landscape of Chama Valley, New Mexico offered here, the artist captures both the tranquility and vitality of the remote valley with a meticulous attention to detail and strong composition.

Note: The MalusBeauregard House, also known as the Rene Beauregard House or the Chalmette Mansion, is located on land that was originally part of Chalmette Plantation, approximately six miles east of the French Quarter. Before the classical-style house was built in 1832, the land, now known as the Chalmette Battlefield, was the site of the Battle of New Orleans; in 1815, Andrew Jackson and his troops successfully thwarted the British forces’ attempts to capture the city of New Orleans. In the current lot, Heldner has chosen to depict Chalmette Mansion as it would have appeared when it was first built – an ethereal vision of the 1830s including a man with a top hat and walking stick and women in full skirts and bonnets.

Rows of spring vegetables thrive in the rich soil near the river, while Spanish moss-laden trees in the background and lily pads on the river add charming touches so often seen in rural southern Louisiana.

The rare and exceptionally high crest relates to a sofa conserved by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, illustrated in American Furniture of the 19th Century by Eileen and Richard Dubrow. A blend of Belter’s most ambitious styles, the armchair features elements that can be seen in known Belter patterns such as “Cornucopia” and “Rosalie,” including the proliferation of grape clusters and intricate oak leaf motifs. The dish-back form of the chairback relates to Belter’s “Patent Model” chair that was presented to the patent office on February 23, 1858, also illustrated in Dubrow’s American Furniture of the 19th Century.

The pier table’s exuberantly scrolled supports are a prominent feature of Meeks furniture, which is evident in several forms illustrated in a Joseph Meeks & Sons trade advertisement from 1833. Cooper notes that the elaborate curvature defines Meeks’ Late Classical furniture and marks it as “a distinctive American product.” (Cooper, 217). Ref.: Cooper, Wendy A. Classical Taste in America: 1800-1840. Abbeville Press: Baltimore, 1993, pp. 210-217.

274.

Note: Derived from the ancient Greek Klismos chair form, the elegant form of the “gondola” chair was revived in the Napoleonic and Louis Philippe eras and transmitted from France to the United States by high-style makers like Duncan Phyfe. By the Late Classical period, New York makers such as Joseph Meeks added stylized features to the gondola chair, such as those seen on the chairs in this lot, including the shaped crest rail and the vasiform splat.

275. American Rococo Carved Mahogany Tester Bed, mid‑19th c., New Orleans, likely the workshop of Prudent Mallard, molded tester, columnar posts, serpentine foliate carved headboard with beaded panel, conforming foot board and rails, h. 113 in., l. 83 in., w. 69 in. $10000/20000 Provenance: Colonel William and Catherine Balfour, Homewood Plantation, Natchez, MS. Note: The monumental tester bed in the lot shown here belonged to Colonel William and Catherine Balfour and was used in their palatial Greek Revival mansion at Homewood Plantation in Natchez, Mississippi. Homewood was built in 1860 as a wedding gift to Colonel William and Catherine Balfour from Catherine’s father, David Hunt, a wealthy planter. Similar to many Natchez homes during this period, such as Lansdowne and Stanton Hall, Homewood was decorated with Rococo furniture from the workshop of New Orleans cabinetmaker Prudent Mallard. The overall design and specific aspects of this historic bed can be referenced to known Mallard examples, especially the bed’s serpentine headboard and the robust foliate and shell-carved accents.

446. Benjamin Franklin Reinhart (American/ Pennsylvania, 1829‑1885, act. New Orleans, 1859‑1862), “Two Sisters and a Cat”, 1873, oil on canvas, signed and dated lower left, 30 in. x 25 in., framed. $2000/3000

Provenance: Descended in the family of the artist, New Orleans.

Note: An accomplished portrait, genre, and history painter, Benjamin Franklin Reinhart established a studio in New Orleans in 1859. While in the city, he painted the portraits of many prominent citizens, including Senator John Slidell and General Pierre Gustave Toutant Beauregard, whose portrait sold at Neal Auction Company for $39,600.00 in 2000. Although he spent the majority of the years of the Civil War in London, Reinhart was nonetheless a supporter of the cause, and a Confederate military company was named in Reinhart’s honor. After the war ended, Reinhart moved back to the United States, making his home in Kentucky, New York, and Pennsylvania over the last two decades of his life. In the lot offered here, two sisters of an affluent family are depicted in their matching finery with a cat, in keeping with a tradition in 19th century portraiture of children to include their pets.

Note: Working with both landscapes and portraits, Andres Molinary often recorded on canvas both the local scenery and prominent citizens of Louisiana, including General Pierre Gustave Toutant Beauregard and Senator John Slidell. Therefore, it is not surprising that he would have been called upon to paint this distinguished portrait of Martin Behrman, who served as Mayor of New Orleans for almost seventeen years until his death in 1926. Behrman, the longest-serving mayor in New Orleans history, was born in New York, but grew up on the west bank in Algiers. Losing both of his parents by the age of twelve, Behrman began supporting himself by working at a local grocery store. Due to his talents and ambition, he rose to the positions of a clerk of the City Council, a delegate to the state Constitutional Convention, and a state auditor before being elected mayor for the first time in 1904.

Note: Born in France, Anacharsis Fourcade taught drawing and painting before immigrating to the United States in the 1840s. Traveling throughout the South, Fourcade visited numerous cities; ads in period newspapers cite his painting skills and offer painting lessons in the artist’s “new and beautiful system of Monochromatic Painting.” Fourcade is known to have lived in Charleston, South Carolina, Wilmington, North Carolina, and Louisville, Kentucky. In 1848 in Montgomery, Alabama, Fourcade married Eliza Ferguson, originally from Georgia. It is unknown if there is a familial relationship between Anacharsis Fourcade and artist Joseph Fourcade, born c. 1775 in France, who worked in New Orleans from 1818-1820 painting portraits and miniatures. The current lot exhibits a composition and brushwork typical of mid19th century France, with a romanticized portrayal of a woman selling fish. In addition, the palette displays the monochromatic color scheme Fourcade described in his newspaper advertisements, with the chiaroscuro prevalent in French Romantic works.

521. Joseph Solman (Russian/American, 1909‑2008), “Sleeping Woman with Groceries on a New York City Subway”, charcoal on paper, initialed “J.S.” lower left, 13 1/2 in. x 10 3/4 in., framed. $700/1000 Provenance: “Joseph Solman, 50 Year Retrospective”, Robert Brown Contemporary Art, Washington, D.C., 1985. Note: In the 1930s, Joseph Solman along with Mark Rothko was one of the founders of the nine person group of expressionist painters known as “The Ten.” He maintained a steadfast interest in figurative drawing and painting, even forming another art movement, Reality, in the 1950s in New York when abstract expressionism was particularly de rigueur. He said, “I have long discovered for myself that what we call the subject yields more pattern, more poetry, more drama, greater abstract design and tension that any shapes we invent.” One of his favorite places to sketch was in the subway on the way to and from his part-time job as a betting clerk at Aqueduct. He would often sketch his fellow riders on his pad of betting slips. In the lot offered here, Solman focuses on a sleeping rider who appears propped up by her bag of groceries. His appreciation for Honoré Daumier, the famous French caricaturist and painter, is evident in the confident, bold outlines of the woman’s facial features and hands. Sleeping figures were a favorite subject of his as he noted that they tended to “pose perfectly when they’re asleep.” Ref.: Packer, William. “Joseph Solman.” The Guardian.

523. Attributed to Sir John Opie (British, 1761‑1807), “Portrait of Mrs. Maria Kenyon Jones Walley of Scarborough”, oil on canvas, unsigned, handwritten label identifying sitter en verso, 49 in. x 39 in., ornate gilt frame. $2000/3000 Provenance: Christie’s, May 4, 1907; “Highly Valuable Paintings from the Blakeslee Galleries, New York”, Plaza Hotel, Apr. 21‑23, 1915, lot 143; The Zigler Art Museum, Jennings, LA. Note: Sir John Opie, a child prodigy, was discovered by Dr. John Wolcot in 1775, when Opie was just fourteen years old. With Wolcot as his mentor, Opie soon gained a following, first in Cornwall, then in London. In the current lot, the finely painted dress and accessories of the opulent late 1780s are demonstrative of the detail with which Opie reproduced his wealthy clients’ attire. Due to his meticulous brushwork, Opie’s works became popular at the court of King George III, and he was commissioned to paint several royal portraits, including the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and Lady Harcourt. Eventually, Opie turned to grand historical scenes rather than the portraits for which he had become famous. Opie was elected to the Royal Academy in 1787 and was appointed professor of painting in 1806. Before his death in 1807, he worked tirelessly on a series of four lectures – the subjects being Design, Invention, Chiaroscuro, and Colouring – which were favorably received by his fellow academicians. The Blakeslee Galleries, located on Fifth Avenue in New York City, in whose collection this painting was held, were owned by Theron J. Blakeslee. In 1914, Blakeslee, learning of the potential failure of his galleries, committed suicide; his widow was advised by their attorney that public sale was most likely the best way to sell the majority of her assets.

Note: New Orleans-born artist Bernard Mattox uses symbolism and texture to relay his complex internal world through his canvases. His practice of digging inward to bring forth the subjects of his work is a process that he refers to as “the archeology of solitude.” As a student of anthropology and geology at Tulane, he traveled through Latin America in the 1970s to study the ancient ruins. The experience would leave a lasting impression on his approach to his work. Originally a ceramicist, Mattox considers himself mostly self-taught when it comes to painting. Using mixed media, including clay and natural objects, he packs his canvases with rich glyphs and symbols, mixing the abstract with the figurative, which results in works saturated with layers of visual stimuli as seen in the lot offered here.

Note: Local artist and founder of the Algiers Point Folk Art Zone, Charles Gillam is known for carving and painting whatever material he can find, which frequently includes wooden doors and driftwood. With a rainbow palette and New Orleans culture as his main inspiration, Gillam’s works are refreshing in their pared-down representations of local figures and scenes, as is evident in the lot offered here. Entitled “New Orleans Greats,” this carved wooden door features four beloved New Orleans musicians in Gillam’s trademark style. The grey lettering of the title is shaped like a crucifix, perhaps an ode to the city’s obsession with music which is appreciated with almost religious-like zeal.

In 1834, Copmann immigrated to the United States and worked in Brooklyn before making his way south to Charleston, New Orleans, and Louisville. He advertised his services in the city directories, and his works were reviewed by local newspapers, such as the Charleston Courier, which not only praised his talents in painting, but also his discovery of a fixative for pastel drawings that would allow the paper to be immersed in water without causing damage.

Nicolas-Charles Bochsa, a musician and composer, studied at the Paris Conservatoire and the Royal Academy of Music in London. Plagued by legal troubles and scandals, Bochsa traveled frequently and gave concerts throughout the United States and Europe – avoiding France, where he was wanted for fraud and counterfeiting. Because both Copmann and Bochsa traveled throughout the southern United States, it is not surprising that they met in New Orleans. The resulting portrait offered here depicts Bochsa standing next to his harp with sheet music in his left hand, prominently displaying the sitter’s name.

Dale Wilson Kennington (America/Alabama, 1935‑2017), “Gospel Song”, oil on canvas, signed lower right, artist label with title en verso, 42 in. x 84 in., framed. $1000/2000 Note: Dale Kennington began painting at the age of forty intending only to create portraits of her children. Later she began painting the neighborhood children to perfect her craft of portraiture. As Kennington’s career evolved, she ceased simply recording what she saw and began drawing from her imagination to create what she referred to as “happenings.” Kennington would carry a camera, her “rapid-fire sketch book,” and assemble a collage of captured moments to compose her paintings. The “happenings” in her mind were of the everyday, ordinary life events drawn mainly from her southern background. In the lot offered here, Kennington using lush colors and a cropped composition, invites the viewer to complete the narrative.

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