CONDITIONS OF SALE 
 
 1, Any bid which is merely a nominal or fractional advance 
 may be rejected by the auctioneer, if, in his judgment, such bid 
 would be likely to affect the sale injuriously. 
 
 2. The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and if any dispute 
 arise between two or more bidders, the auctioneer shall either de- 
 cide the same or put up for re-sale the lot so in dispute. 
 
 3. Payment shall be made of all or such part of the pur- 
 chase money as may be required, and the names and addresses of 
 the purchasers shall be given immediately on the sale of every lot, 
 ‘in default of which the lot so purchased shall be immediately put 
 up again and re-sold. 
 
 Payment of that part of the purchase money not made at 
 the time of sale shall be made within ten days thereafter, in de- 
 fault of which the undersigned may either continue to hold the 
 lots at the risk of the purchaser and take such action as may be 
 necessary for the enforcement of the sale, or may at public or 
 private sale, and without other than this notice, re-sell the lots 
 for the benefit of such purchaser, and the deficiency (if any) aris- 
 ing from such re-sale shall be a charge against such purchaser. 
 
 4. Delivery of any purchase will be made only upon pay- 
 ment of the total amount due for all purchases at the sale. 
 
 Deliveries will be made on sales days between the hours of 
 9 A. M. and 1 P. M., and on other days—except holidays— 
 between the hours of 9 A. M. and 5 P. M. 
 
 Delivery of any purchase will be made only at the American 
 Art Galleries, or other place of sale, as the case may be, and only 
 on presenting the bill of purchase. 
 
 Delivery may be made, at the discretion of the Association, 
 
 of any purchase during the session of the sale at which it was sold. 
 
5, Shipping, boxing or wrapping of purchases is a business 
 in which the Association is in no wise engaged, and will not be 
 performed by the Association for purchasers. The Association 
 will, however, afford to purchasers every facility for employing 
 at current and reasonable rates carriers and packers; doing so, 
 however, without any assumption of responsibility on its part 
 for the acts and charges of the parties engaged for such service. 
 
 6. Storage of any purchase shall be at the sole risk of the 
 purchaser. ‘Title passes upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer, 
 and thereafter, while the Association will exercise due caution in 
 caring for and delivering such purchase, it will not hold itself 
 responsible if such purchase be lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed. 
 
 Storage charges will be made upon all purchases not removed 
 within ten days from the date of the sale thereof. 
 
 7. Guarantee is not made either by the owner or the Asso- 
 ciation of the correctness of the description, genuineness or au- 
 thenticity of any lot, and no sale will be set aside on account of 
 any incorrectness, error of catologuing, or any imperfection not 
 noted. Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior 
 to its sale, after which it is sold “as is” and without recourse. 
 
 The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot 
 correctly, and will give consideration to the opinion of any trust- 
 worthy expert to the effect that any lot has been incorrectly cata- 
 logued, and, in its judgment, may either sell the lot as catalogued 
 or make mention of the opinion of such expert, who thereby would 
 become responsible for such damage as might result were his 
 
 opinion without proper foundation.

 only finely wrought and true to nature, but has a beauti- 
 
 ful patina on the bronze. It is meant for a paper weight, 
 
 but might be used as a pendant. It comes from his own 
 
 studio, as do all the other Baryes here.

 91a—Inpian Water Buck. By A. L. Barre 
 
 Pleasing little clock ornament by the master of all mod- 
 
 é y (4 ern animal sculptors. Quiet, but full of natural move- 
 ment and grace. Olive brown patina. One of the ant- 
 lers has been broken off. 
 
 92—Eneuisu Serrer. By A. L. Tee inka Tpepl pr 
 
 The sculptor has caught the intelligent look of a setter 
 
 Ht = dog as it pauses in sight of game, and alfo the suspended 
 motion as, with one paw nerevously raised, it half- 
 crouches with excitement and notifies his master that a 
 bird is there. The muscles are strongly indicated and 
 even the hair of the dog suggested in Barye’s broad way 
 of modeling. Fine brown patina.

 93—Srac rv Sicut or His Rivat. teed evi ' Barve / C4 
 
 Small mantel ornament in which the sculptor has caught 
 23 a g¢_the noble, defiant look of a stag about to do battle with a 
 j rival. Large modeling and fine movement—power and 
 light-footedness combined. Peculiar patina, of which 
 Barye had in his day the monopoly. He surpassed all 
 the bronze men in quality of color as in other traits. 
 Rare piece from his earlier life before he took to num- 
 bering his pieces.

 94—Lion Smirinc Serpent. By A. L. Barye 
 
 aft 
 
 This vivid little episode of the jungle may be seen in 
 bronze larger than life in the Tuileries Gardens, Paris. 
 The large group is not so lively as this one; the left paw 
 is not raised to strike and the tail does not curl in anger. 
 
 Also the serpent or python is held fast by a different — 
 
 foot. The snarling, violent gesture suited to the mantel- 
 ornament was restrained by Barye in the monumental 
 piece. Beautiful brown patina.

 A statuette that brings out the immense pawer of the 
 South American jaguar—a beast of prey the Spaniards 
 called the tiger; for large specimens are as big as young 
 tigers and more powerful. The creature sees its food 
 or its enemy, and stands ready to advance or bound 
 away. It is a female. Beautiful brown patina.

 96—BuLu on THE DerensiveE. By A. L. Barre 
 
 _ Rare piece, because the sculptor did not cast many speci 
 
 as oo 
 
 mens of it. The moment chosen is when dogs are let 
 loose and the bull, tearing up the ground with its forefoot, 
 lowers its head and turns it sideways to impale the in- 
 cautious hound on one sharp horn. The immense weight 
 and the square bones and muscles of a full-grown bull 
 are told by the sculptor with the greatest faithfulness 
 to nature.

 The raised forefoot and open mouth of the stallion, its 
 
 ~ arched neck and pose of hind legs show that he is in the 
 
 presence of a rival and proposes to beat him off the field. 
 The head shows remote Arabian blood, the powerful 
 barrel and limbs suggest the Flemish horse. Early copy, 
 not signed. Greenish patina. 
 
98—Cuares VI, Kine or France. By A. L. Barye 
 os. cLhis little equestrian statuette of one of the Kings of 
 7 Ss — France may have been modeled as a sketch to interest 
 those who were arranging for a royal monument. Instead 
 of helmet he wears the laurel crown; instead of lance or 
 sword he carries the baton of command in his right. 
 Barye has carried out very completely the armor of man 
 and horse. Fine old bronze patina. Very rare.

 /./ ) oe _Meéne was one of Barye’s contemporaries and more suc- 
 
 (TU ~~ cessful in his appeal to horsemen and hunters than 
 Barye. He sought elegance more than character and ~ 
 types. This is a handsome highbred animal built for 
 speed. Its fine skin shows the veins, its large eyes and 
 “set up” tail speaks for the careful breeding and han- 
 dling of the stud. Unusual patina.

 Mounted on a marble slab. Modern’ and beautiful piece 
 of modeling and casting made in consequence of the suc- 
 
 od BO Sh. of “L’aprés-midi d’un Faune.” The peculiar move-

 play, and very cleverly rendered. Moreover, the 
 bronze has a fine olive-brown patina. Unusual and 
 valuable.

 buckskin and carries a sword in his right. Attitude and 
 face express quietly but firmly his purpose to see the 
 contest through. Very rare and valuable.
