charge of £2 (+ VAT) per lot per day. No goods will be allowed

to be collected until these charges have been paid.

LOT SYMBOLS

VAT

Lots marked with a dagger (†) are subject to VAT on the

hammer price. Lots marked with an omega (Ω) have been

temporarily imported from outside the EU and are subject to

VAT at 5% on the hammer price and the buyer’s premium. In

online catalogues, the Sales Tax % column indicates the rate of

VAT on hammer price.

CITES REGULATIONS

Please note that lots marked λ may be subject to CITES

Regulations when exported.

The CITES Regulations may be found at

www.defra.gov.uk/ahvla-en/imports-exports/cites/

ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHT / DROIT DE SUITE

Lots marked with a ‡ symbol are potentially subject to a levy.

Droit de Suite is a royalty payable to a qualifying artist or

the artist’s heirs each time a work is resold during the artist’s

lifetime and up to a period of 70 years after the artist’s death.

Royalties are calculated on a sliding percentage scale based on

the hammer price excluding the buyer’s premium. The royalty

does not apply to lots selling below the sterling equivalent of

€1,000 and the maximum royalty payable on any single lot is

the sterling equivalent of €10,000.

Droit de Suite, which is not subject to VAT, will be added to

the buyer’s purchase price and then passed on to the relevant

collecting agency.

Please enquire for the accepted exchange rate on the day of

the sale.

Royalties for Droit de Suite are as follows:

4% Up to €50,000

3% €50,000.01 - 200,000

1% €200,000.01 - 350,000

0.5% €350,000.01 - 500,000

0.25% In excess of €500,000

Up to a maximum levy of €10,000

FIREARMS

Lots marked Ƒ in the catalogue, or by any other means

identified as controlled firearms, are subject to the UK

firearms/shotgun licencing regime, and should only be viewed/

purchased by individuals with appropriate licences. It is the

responsibility of the bidders to ensure that they are legally

authorised to acquire the lot that they are bidding for. In the

event that such a lot is successfully bid for by an individual who

is not authorised to possess it, that individual will be required

to pay for it, but are not allowed to take physical possession of

it. The auctioneers will reoffer the lot on behalf of the buyer in

a future auction; or may accept instructions to dispose of it by

some other legal means, at their discretion.

INFORMATION FOR BUYERS

1. Introduction. The following informative notes are intended to assist

Buyers, particularly those inexperienced or new to our salerooms. All sales

are conducted on our printed Conditions of Sale which are readily available

for inspection and normally accompany catalogues. Our staff will be happy

to help you if there is anything you do not fully understand.

2. Agency. As auctioneers we usually contract as agents for the seller

whose identity, for reasons of confidentiality, is not normally disclosed.

Accordingly if you buy your primary contract is with the seller.

3. Estimates. Estimates are designed to help buyers gauge what sort of

sum might be involved for the purchase of a particular lot. The lower

estimate may represent the reserve price and certainly will not be below it.

Estimates do not include the Buyer’s Premium or VAT (where chargeable).

Estimates are prepared some time before the sale and may be altered by

announcement before the sale. They are in no sense definitive.

4. The purchase price. The Buyer shall pay the hammer price together with

a premium thereon of 26% plus VAT @20% (totalling 31.2% inclusive) on

the first £500,000 and 20% plus VAT @20% (24%) inclusive thereafter.

5. VAT. (†) indicates that VAT at the current standard rate is payable by

the purchaser on the hammer price as well as being an element in the

buyer’s premium. This imposition of VAT is likely to be because the seller

is registered for VAT within the European Union and is not operating the

Dealers Margin Scheme or because VAT is due at 20% on importation

into the UK. The symbol (Ω) indicates that the lot has been imported from

outside the European Union and the present position is that these lots

are liable to a reduced rate of VAT (5%) on the gross lot price (i.e. both

the hammer price and the buyer’s premium). Lots which appear without

either of the above symbols indicate that no VAT is payable on the hammer

price. This is because such lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin

Scheme and it should be noted that the VAT included within the Premium

is not recoverable as input tax. (As at 31st December 2020. Please refer to

SOFAA website for updates to the Terms and Conditions).

6. We are, primarily, agents for the seller. We are dependent on information

provided by the seller and whilst we may inspect lots and act reasonably

in taking a general view about them we are normally unable to carry out

a detailed or any examination of lots in order to ascertain their condition

in the way in which it would be wise for a buyer to do. Intending buyers

have ample opportunity for inspection of goods and, therefore, accept

responsibility for inspecting and investigating lots in which they may be

interested. Please note carefully the exclusion of liability for the condition

of lots contained in the Conditions of Sale. Neither the seller nor we, as

the auctioneers, accept any responsibility for their condition. In particular,

mechanical objects of any age are not guaranteed to be in working

order. However, in so far as we have examined the goods and make a

representation about their condition, we shall be liable for any defect

which that examination ought to have revealed to the auctioneer but

which would not have been revealed to the buyer had the buyer examined

the goods. Additionally, in specified circumstances lots misdescribed

because they are ‘deliberate forgeries’ may be returned and repayment

made. There is a 3 week time limit. (The expression ‘deliberate forgery’ is

defined in our Conditions of Sale).

7. Electrical goods. These are sold as ‘antiques’ only and if bought for use

must be checked over for compliance with safety regulations by a qualified

electrician first.

8. Export of goods. Buyers intending to export goods should ascertain (a)

whether an export licence is required for the goods to leave the U.K.

and (b) whether there is any specific prohibition on importing the goods

in question into the destination country because, e.g. they may contain

prohibited materials such as ivory. Charges may be applicable for export

licences. Ask us if you need help. The denial of any permit or licence shall

not justify cancellation or rescission of the sale contract or any delay in

payment.

9. Bidding. Bidders will be required to register before the sale commences

and lots will be invoiced to the name and address on the registration form.

Some form of identification will be required if you are unknown to us.

Please enquire in advance about our arrangements for telephone bidding.

10. Commission bidding. Commission bids may be left with the auctioneers

indicating the maximum amount to be bid excluding buyers’ premium.

They will be executed as cheaply as possible having regard to the reserve

(if any) and competing bids. If two buyers submit identical commission

bids the auctioneers may prefer the first bid received. Please enquire

in advance about our arrangements for the leaving of commission bids

by telephone.

11. Methods of Payment. As a general rule any cheques tendered will need

to be cleared before removal of the goods is permitted. Please discuss

with our Office in advance of the sale if other methods of payment are

envisaged (except cash).

12. Collection and storage. Please note what the Conditions of Sale state

about collection and storage. It is important that goods are paid for and

collected promptly. Any delay may involve the buyer in paying storage

charges.

TERMS OF CONSIGNMENT FOR SELLERS

1. Interpretation. In these Terms the words ‘you’, ‘yours’, etc. refer to the

Seller and if the consignment of goods to us is made by an agent we

assume that the Seller has authorised the consignment and that the

consignor has the Seller’s authority to contract. Similarly the words ‘we’,

‘us’, etc. refer to the Auctioneers.

2. Commission is charged to sellers at the following rates: 15% + VAT on

each lot sold for up to £999, 10% + VAT on each lot realising £1,000 and

above.

3. Removal costs. Items for sale must be consigned to the sale room by any

stated deadline and at your expense. We may be able to assist you with

this process but any liability incurred to a carrier for haulage charges is

solely your responsibility.

4. Loss and damage waiver. We are not regulated by the FSA for the

provision of insurance to clients. However, we for our own protection

assume liability for property consigned to us at lower pre-sale estimate. To

justify accepting liability, we make a charge of 1.5% of the hammer price

plus VAT or, if unsold, our mid estimate of the hammer price. If the owner

of goods consigned instructs us in writing not to take such action, they

then remain at owner’s risk unless and until the property in them passes to

the Buyer or they are collected by or on behalf of the owner, and clause 4

is inapplicable.

5. Illustrations. The cost of any illustrations is borne by you. If we consider

that the lot should be illustrated your permission will usually be asked first.

The copyright in respect of such illustrations shall be the property of us,

the auctioneers, as is the text of the catalogue.

6. Minimum bids and our discretion. Goods may be offered subject to a

reserve agreed between us before the sale in accordance with clause 7.

7. We may sell lots below the reserve provided we account to you for the

same sale proceeds as you would have received had the reserve been the

hammer price. If you specifically give us ‘discretion’ we may accept a bid of

up to 10% below the formal reserve.

Reserves.

(a) You are entitled to place prior to the auction a reserve on any lot

consigned, being the minimum hammer price at which that lot may be

sold. Reserves must be reasonable and we may decline to offer goods

which in our opinion would be subject to an unreasonably high reserve

(in which case goods carry the storage and insurance charges stipulated in

these Terms of Consignment).

(b) A reserve once set cannot be changed except with our consent.

(c) Where a reserve has been placed only we may bid on your behalf and only

up to the reserve (if any) and you may in no circumstances bid personally.

8. Electrical items. These are subject to detailed statutory safety controls.

Where such items are accepted for sale you accept responsibility for the

cost of testing by external contractors. Goods not certified as safe by an

electrician (unless antiques) will not be accepted for sale. They must be

removed at your expense on your being notified. We reserve the right to

dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

9. Soft furnishings. The sale of soft furnishings is strictly regulated by

statute law in the interests of fire safety. Goods found to infringe safety

regulations will not be offered and must be removed at your expense. We

reserve the right to dispose of unsafe goods as refuse, at your expense.

The rights of disposal referred to in clause 8 and 9 are subject to the

provisions of The Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977, Schedule 1, a

copy of which is available for inspection on request.

SOCIETY OF FINE ART AUCTIONEERS AND VALUERS

and the ROYAL INSTITUTION OF CHARTERED SURVEYORS

CONDITIONS OF BUSINESS

10. Descriptions. Please assist us with accurate information as to the provenance

etc. of goods where this is relevant. There is strict liability for the accuracy of

descriptions under modern consumer legislation and in some circumstances

responsibility lies with sellers if inaccuracies occur. We will assume that you

have approved the catalogue description of your lots unless informed to the

contrary. Where we are obliged to return the price to the buyer when the lot

is a deliberate forgery under Condition 15 of the Conditions of Sale and we

have accounted to you for the proceeds of sale you agree to reimburse us

the sale proceeds. The liability to reimburse the sale proceeds shall not arise

where you are acting reasonably and honestly and are unaware of the forgery

but we are or ought to have been aware of it.

11. Unsold and withdrawn items. If an item is unsold it may with your consent

be re-offered at a future sale. Where in our opinion an item is unsaleable you

must collect such items from the saleroom promptly on being so informed.

Otherwise, storage charges may be incurred. We reserve the right to charge

for storage in these circumstances at a reasonable daily rate.

12. Withdrawn and bought in items. These are liable to incur a charge of up

to 10% plus VAT of the reserve or low estimate on being bought in or

withdrawn after being catalogued.

13. Conditions of Sale. You agree that all goods will be sold on our Conditions

of Sale. In particular you undertake that you have the right to sell the goods

either as owner or agent for the owner. You undertake to compensate us

and any buyer or third party for all losses liabilities and expenses incurred in

respect of and as a result of any breach of this undertaking.

14. Authority to deduct commission and expenses and retain premium and

interest.

(a) You authorise us to deduct commission at the stated rate and all expenses

incurred for your account from the hammer price and consent to our right

to retain beneficially the premium paid by the buyer in accordance with our

Conditions of Sale and any interest earned on the sale proceeds until the

date of settlement.

(b) You authorise us in our discretion to negotiate a sale by private treaty not

later than the close of business on the day of the sale in the case of lots

unsold at auction, in which case the same charges will be payable as if such

lots had been sold at auction and so far as appropriate these terms apply.

15. Warehousing. We disclaim all liability for goods delivered to our saleroom

without sufficient sale instructions and reserve the right to make minimum

warehousing charge of £2 per lot per day. Unsold lots are subject to the same

charges if you do not remove them within a reasonable time of notification. If

not removed within three weeks we reserve the right to sell them and defray

charges from any net proceeds of sale or at your expense to consign them to

the local authority for disposal.

16. Settlement. Subject to our normal trading conditions, payment will be made

by BACS or cheque five weeks after the sale unless the buyer has not paid

for the goods. In this case no settlement will then be made but we will take

your instructions in the light of our Conditions of Sale. You authorise any

sums owed by you to us on other transactions to be deducted from the sale

proceeds. You must note the liability to reimburse the proceeds of sale to us

as under the circumstances provided for in Condition 10 above. You should

therefore bear this potential liability in mind before parting with the proceeds

of sale until the expiry of 28 days from the date of sale.

(b) the maker of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer conducting the sale

shall be the buyer at the hammer price and any dispute about a bid shall be

settled at the auctioneer’s absolute discretion by reoffering the Lot during

the course of the auction or otherwise. The auctioneer shall act reasonably

in exercising this discretion.

(c) Bidders shall be deemed to act as principals.

(d) Our right to bid on behalf of the seller is expressly reserved up to the amount

of any reserve and the right to refuse any bid is also reserved.

20% plus VAT @20% (24%) inclusive thereafter.

5. VALUE ADDED TAX

Value Added Tax on the hammer price is imposed by law on all items affixed

with a † or Ω. Value Added Tax is charged at the appropriate rate prevailing

by law at the date of sale and is payable by buyers of relevant lots. (Please

the source of any funds received by us. The completion of the sale of a Lot

will be postponed or cancelled at our discretion if further time is needed

for investigation, or if you are in breach of your warranties as a buyer, or

if we consider the sale to be unlawful or in any way cause liabilities or be

detrimental to either Woolley and Wallis or the Seller.

storage and insurance charges.

(c) No purchase may be collected and we shall not release any lot to you or your

agent until it has been paid for.

8. REMEDIES FOR NON-PAYMENT OR FAILURE TO COLLECT PURCHASES

(a) If any Lot is not paid for in full and taken away in accordance with these

for the seller and on our own behalf, shall at our absolute discretion and

without prejudice to any other rights we may have, be entitled to exercise

one or more of the following rights and remedies:

(i) to proceed against you for damages for breach of contract;

(ii) to rescind the sale of that lot and/or any other lots sold by us to you;

(iii) to resell the lot (by auction or private treaty) in which case you shall be

responsible for any resulting deficiency in the total amount due (after

remedies only so far as is reasonable to make appropriate recovery in respect

of breach of these conditions

9. THIRD PARTY LIABILITY

All members of the public on our premises are there at their own risk and

must note the lay-out of the accommodation and security arrangements.

Accordingly neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall incur

liability for death or personal injury (except as required by law by reason of our

negligence) or similarly for the safety of the property of persons visiting prior

to or at a sale.

10. COMMISSION BIDS

Whilst prospective buyers are strongly advised to attend the auction and

are always responsible for any decision to bid for a particular lot and shall

be assumed to have carefully inspected and satisfied themselves as to its

condition, we will if so instructed clearly and in writing execute bids on their

behalf. Neither the auctioneer nor our employees or agents shall be responsible

for any failure to do so save where such failure is unreasonable. Where two or

more commission bids at the same level are recorded we reserve the right in

our absolute discretion to prefer the first bid so made.

11. WARRANTY OF TITLE AND AVAILABILITY

The seller warrants to the auctioneer and you that the seller is the true owner

of the property consigned or is properly authorised by the true owner to

consign it for sale and is able to transfer good and marketable title to the

property free from any third party claims.

12. AGENCY

The auctioneer normally acts as agent only and disclaims any responsibility for

default by sellers or buyers.

13. TERMS OF SALE

The seller acknowledges that lots are sold subject to the stipulations of these

Conditions in their entirety and on the Terms of Consignment as notified to the

consignor at the time of the entry of the lot.

14. DESCRIPTIONS AND CONDITION

(a) Whilst we seek to describe lots accurately, it may be impractical for us to

carry out exhaustive due diligence on each lot. Prospective buyers are given

ample opportunities to view and inspect before any sale and they (and any

independent experts on their behalf) must satisfy themselves as to the

accuracy of any description applied to a lot. Prospective buyers also bid on

the understanding that, inevitably, representations or statements by us as to

authorship, genuineness, origin, date, age, provenance, condition or estimated

selling price involve matters of opinion. We undertake that any such opinion

shall be honestly and reasonably held and accept liability for opinions given

negligently or fraudulently. Subject to the foregoing neither we the auctioneer

nor our employees or agents nor the seller accept liability for the correctness

of such opinions and all conditions and warranties, whether relating to

description, condition or quality of lots, express, implied or statutory, are

hereby excluded. This Condition is subject to the next following Condition

concerning deliberate forgeries and applies save as provided for in paragraph

6 ‘information to buyers’.

(b) Private treaty sales made under these Conditions are deemed to be sales by

auction for purposes of consumer legislation.

15. FORGERIES

Notwithstanding the preceding Condition, any lot which proves to be a

deliberate forgery (as defined) may be returned to us by you within 21

days of the auction provided it is in the same condition as when bought,

and is accompanied by particulars identifying it from the relevant catalogue

description and a written statement of defects. If we are satisfied from the

evidence presented that the lot is a deliberate forgery we shall refund the

money paid by you for the lot including any buyer’s premium provided that

(1) if the catalogue description reflected the accepted view of scholars and

experts as at the date of sale or (2) you personally are not able to transfer a

good and marketable title to us, you shall have no rights under this condition.

The right of return provided by this Condition is additional to any right or

remedy provided by law or by these Conditions of Sale.

GENERAL

16. We shall have the right at our discretion, to refuse admission to our premises

or attendance at our auctions by any person.

17. (a) Any right to compensation for losses liabilities and expenses incurred in

respect of and as a result of any breach of these Conditions and any exclusions

provided by them shall be available to the seller and/or the auctioneer as

appropriate.

(b) Such rights and exclusions shall extend to and be deemed to be for the

benefit of employees and agents of the seller and/or the auctioneer who may

themselves enforce them.

18. Any notice to any buyer, seller, bidder or viewer may be given by first class mail

or Swiftmail in which case it shall be deemed to have been received by the

addressee 48 hours after posting.

19. Special terms may be used in catalogue descriptions of particular classes of

items in which case the descriptions must be interpreted in accordance with

any glossary appearing in the catalogue.

20. Any indulgence extended to bidders buyers or sellers by us notwithstanding

the strict terms of these Conditions or of the Terms of Consignment shall

affect the position at the relevant time only and in respect of that particular

concession only; in all other respects these Conditions shall be construed as

having full force and effect.

21. English law applies to the interpretation of these Conditions.

22. Prior written consent must be sought by the buyer or any other party for

the use of any images, illustrations and written materials produced by or for

Woolley & Wallis relating to a lot or sale, including the contents of a catalogue.

Copyright for any of the aforementioned will remain the property of Woolley

& Wallis, subject to the provisions of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act

1988. Woolley & Wallis and the seller make no representations or warranties

that the buyer of a lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights

to it.

PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS, LITHOGRAPHS, ENGRAVINGS AND PRINTS

In accordance with long standing practice in Fine Art Sale Rooms certain terms

used in descriptions in the Catalogue have the meanings ascribed to them in

the glossary below.

Glossary

Any statement as to authorship, attribution, origin, date, age, provenance and

condition is a statement of opinion and is not to be taken as a statement of

fact. The Company reserves the right, in forming their opinion, to consult and

rely upon any expert or authority considered by them to be reliable.

(a) Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by the artist. (When the artist’s forename(s)

is not known, a series of asterisks, followed by the surname of the artist,

whether preceded by an initial or not, indicates that in our opinion the work is

by the artist named.

(b) Attributed to Edward Lear: In our opinion probably a work by the artist but less

certainty as to authorship is expressed than in the preceding category.

(c) Studio of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an unknown hand in the studio

of the artist which may be or may not have been executed under the artist’s

direction.

(d) Circle of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by an as yet unidentified but

distinct hand, closely associated with the named artist but not necessarily his

pupil.

(e) Style of ...; Follower of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work by a painter working

in the artist’s style, contemporary or nearly contemporary, but not necessarily

his pupil.

(f) Manner of Edward Lear: In our opinion a work in the style of the artist and of

a later date.

(g) After Edward Lear: In our opinion a copy of a known work of the artist.

(h) The term signed and/or dated and/or inscribed means that in our opinion the

signature and/or date and/or inscription are from the hand of the artist.

(i) The term bears a signature and/or date and/or inscription means that in our

opinion the signature and/or date and/or inscription have been added by

another hand.

(j) Dimensions are given height before width.

(k) Pictures are framed unless otherwise stated.

BOOKS AUCTIONS

If, on collation, any named item in this catalogue proves defective in text

or illustration, the lot may be returned within 14 days of the sale with the

defects stated in writing. This proviso shall not apply to defects stated in the

catalogue or announced at the time of sale; nor to the absence of blanks, half

titles, tissue guards or advertisements, damage in respect of bindings, stains,

spotting, marginal tears or other defects not affecting completeness of text

or illustration; nor to drawings, autographs, letters or manuscripts, signed

photographs, music, atlases, maps or periodicals; nor to books not identified

by title; nor to books sold not subject to return.

ARTIST’S RESALE RIGHT / DROIT DE SUITE

Droit de Suite is a royalty payable to a qualifying artist or the artist’s heirs each

time a work is resold during the artist’s lifetime and up to a period of 70 years

after the artist’s death.

Royalties are calculated on a sliding percentage scale based on the hammer

price excluding the buyer’s premium. The royalty does not apply to lots selling

below the sterling equivalent of €1,000 and the maximum royalty payable on

any single lot is the sterling equivalent of €10,000.

Droit de Suite, which is not subject to VAT, will be added to the buyer’s

purchase price and then passed on to the relevant collecting agency by the

auctioneer.

Please enquire for the accepted exchange rate on the day of the sale.

Royalties for Droit de Suite are as follows:

4% Up to €50,000

3% €50,000.01 - 200,000

1% €200,000.01 - 350,000

0.5% €350,000.01 - 500,000

0.25% In excess of €500,000

VALUATIONS

Valuations are a core part of our business and are usually carried

out by a senior specialist or director. Accuracy, speed and above all

confidentiality are paramount.

INSURANCE VALUATIONS

Written valuations for insurance can vary from a single item to a large

estate. Before starting we discuss the various options available so that

the valuation is specifically tailored to individual client’s needs.

For valuations of an entire house contents an itemised bound

valuation is produced and can be accompanied by photographs when

required. In addition to providing an inventory, written valuations can

prevent painful arguments with a loss adjuster in the event of a claim.

Woolley and Wallis valuations are accepted by all leading insurance

companies.

PROBATE VALUATIONS

We offer a speedy and professional service for executors and trustees

and provide bound valuations for probate and duplicate copies when

required. Since security is often a consideration, we can usually

arrange for a house to be cleared and sent for auction, our Valuations

Department ensures that executors are informed of which sales are

involved and the results thereof.

We also carry out valuations for Family Division, Capital Gains Tax,

and Private Treaty Sales.
