CONDITIONS OF SALE 
 
 I. Rejection of bids: Any bid which is not commensurate 
 with the value of the article offered or 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. 
 
 Il. The buyer: The highest bidder shall be the buyer, and 
 if any dispute arises between two or more bidders, the auctioneer 
 shall either decide the same or put up for re-sale the lot so in 
 dispute. 
 
 Ill. Identification and part payment by buyer: The name 
 of the buyer of each lot shall be given immediately on the sale 
 thereof, and when so required, each buyer shall sign a card giving 
 the lot number, amount for which sold, and his or her name and 
 address. 
 
 Payment at the actual time of the sale shall be made of all 
 or such part of the purchase prices as may be required. 
 
 If the two foregoing conditions are not complied with, the lot 
 or lots so purchased may at the option of the auctioneer be put 
 up again and re-sold. 
 
 1V. Risk after purchase: Title passes upon the fall of the 
 auctioncer’s hammer and thereafter neither the consignor nor the 
 Association is responsible for the loss or any damage to any 
 article occasioned by theft, fire, breakage or any other cause. 
 
 V. Delivery of purchases: Delivery of any purchases will 
 be made only upon payment of the total amount due for all 
 purchases at the sale. 
 
 Deliveries will be made at the place of sale or at the storage 
 warehouse to which purchases may have been removed. 
 
 Deliveries at the American Art Galleries will be made only 
 between the hours of 9 A. M. and 1 P. M. on sales’ days and on 
 
 other days—except holidays, when no deliveries will be made— 
 between the hours of 9 A. M. and 5 P. M. 
 
 Deliveries at places of sale other than the American Art 
 Galleries will be made only during the forenoon following the day 
 of sale unless by special notice or arrangement to the contrary. 
 
Deliveries at the storage warehouse to which goods may have 
 
 i | been sent will be made on any day other than holidays between 
 the hours of 9 and 5. 
 
 1] Deliveries of any purchases of small articles likely to be lost 
 or mislaid may be made at the discretion of the auctioneer during 
 the session of the sale at which they were sold. 
 
 VI. Storage in default of prompt payment and calling for 
 goods: Articles not paid for in full and either not called for by 
 the purchaser or delivered upon his or her order by noon of the 
 day following that of the sale will be turned over by the Associa- 
 | tion to some carter to be carried to and stored in some warchouse 
 | until the time of the delivery therefrom to the purchaser, and the 
 i] cost of such cartage and storage will be charged against the pur- 
 chaser and the risk of loss or damage occasioned by such removal 
 
 or storage will be upon the purchaser. 
 | NOTE: The Limited space of the Delivery Rooms 
 | of the Association makes the above requirements 
 necessary, and it is not alone for the benefit of the 
 Association, but also for that of its patrons, whose 
 goods otherwise would have to be so crowded as to 
 
 be subject to damage and loss. 
 
 VII. Shipping: Shipping, boxing or wrapping of purchases 
 is a business in which the Association is in no wise engaged, and 
 tl 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. 
 
 VIII: Guaranty: The Association exercises great care to 
 catalogue every lot correctly and endeavors therein and also at 
 
 the actual time of sale to point out any error, defect or imperfec- 
 tion, but guaranty is not made either by the owner or the 
 Association of the correctness of the description, genuineness, 
 authenticity or condition of any lot and no sale will be set aside 
 on account of any incorrectness, error of cataloguing or imper- 
 fection not noted or pointed out. Every lot is sold “as is” and 
 without recourse, 
 
Every lot is on public exhibition one or more days prior to its 
 sale, and the Association will give consideration to the opinion of 
 any trustworthy expert to the effect that any lot has been incor- 
 rectly catalogued and in its judgment may thereafter sell the lot 
 as catalogued or make mention of the opinion of such expert, who 
 thereby will become responsible for such damage as might result 
 were his opinion without foundation. 
 
 IX. Buying on order: Buying or bidding by the Associa- 
 tion for responsible parties on orders transmitted to it by mail, 
 telegraph or telephone will be faithfully attended to without 
 charge or commission. Any purchases so made will be subject to 
 the foregoing conditions of sale except that, in the event of a 
 purchase of a lot of one or more books by or for a purchaser who 
 has not through himself or his agent been present at the exhibi- 
 tion or sale, the Association will permit such lot to be returned 
 within ten days from the date of sale and the purchase money will 
 be refunded if the lot in any manner differs from its catalogue 
 description. 
 
 Orders for execution by the Association should be written and 
 given with such plainness as to leave no room for misunderstand- 
 ing. Not only should the lot number be given, but also the title, 
 and bids should be stated to be so much for the lot, and when the 
 lot consists of one or more volumes of books or objects of art, the 
 bid per volume or piece should also be stated. If the one trans- 
 mitting the order is unknown to the Association, a deposit should 
 be sent or reference submitted. Shipping directions should also 
 be given. 
 
 Priced Catalogues: Priced copies of the catalogue or any 
 session thereof, will be furnished by the Association at charges 
 commensurate with the duties involved in copying the necessary 
 information from the records of the Association.

 Autumn browns, varying from reddish iron-rust to deep seal and al- 
 most to black, and relieved by an occasional note of red, make up the 
 colors of earth and herbage in a more or less level stretch of wild 
 land. A straggling path, worn and hardened to a lighter note, wanders 
 along the edge of a short but dense wood which stands on the right, 
 green as to its higher leafage, and brown in the lower brush. At a 
 certain distance the land declines and falls away, leaving a corner of 
 the woods on the right of the path and detached trees on the left of 
 it strong in silhouette before a sky of creamy, white and gray clouds, 
 with a bluish suggestion back of them. In the left middle-ground the 
 suggestion of a kneeling fagot gatherer.

 A youne peasant girl of Capri, wearing dark blue bodice, white blouse 
 and pink skirt, is seen standing in back view as she leans against the 
 bent trunk of an olive tree. Her head is turned to the right so that 
 her face appears in profile. The setting for this graceful figure com- 
 prises a stone wall, enclosing the orchar , and foliage beyond. Marked 
 
 by the skilful treatment of the celebrated artist. 
 
 This painting was exhibited by Mr. Sargent at the Second Annual Exhibition of 
 the Society of American Artists, New York, 1879, and was purchased by the late 
 Daniel Cottier, 
 
 At the time the above picture was exhibited in the Ichabod T. W illiams Collec- 
 tion the late Carroll Beckwith, N.A., stated that “the model w as the famous beauty 
 ‘Rosina of Capri, who afterward married very brilliantly a distinguished artist.” 
 In 1878, when Mr. Carroll Beckwith came home to America to begin his artistic 
 career, Sargent went to Capri and painted the above picture and wrote to Mr. 
 Beckwith de seribing the beautiful model and mentioned this particular picture.

 AN UNKNOWN ARTIST 
 
 Louis VALLE 
 
 “To-day, a name which was unheard of yesterday, suddenly appears in the history 
 of Dutch art, and at once demands our homage with particular authority. This artist 
 becomes known to us through a painting which for many years was hidden away in 
 England, then returned to its native land for a brief instant, after which it passed 
 through the hands of a Parisian expert, and finally emigrated to America. On the 
 opposite page is a reproduction of the painting. It represents a male figure, of 
 natural height, admirable in psychological penetration, and beauty of composition, 
 and in every way worthy of our richest museums. An inscription appears in the 
 corner of the painting which we take to be Vallé (or Vallée), the title of this article. 
 
 “Who is this new-comer? 
 
 “No dictionary mentions his name; Wurzbach’s ‘Niederlaendisches Kiinstler- 
 Lexicon, which publication is in course of completion, and which is at the present 
 moment the best and most complete source of information available regarding Dutch 
 artists, does not mention him. It seems (but there is no authority to support this) 
 that a certain Louis Vallé was a pupil of Rembrandt, and that besides his painting, 
 he worked as a carpenter for his livelihood; just as Jan Steen was an inn-keeper, 
 and that he was a ‘sergeant’ on board a sail-boat bound for India. And that is all. 
 If, perchance, some erudite has in his possession documents containing information 
 on this artist, may these few words help bring them to light, and so complete the 
 reparation due to this great artist, this mysterious Vallé.

[ No. 78—Continued | 
 
 “For—our readers cannot deny it—we are concerned indeed with a great painter, 
 one who is not an imitator of Rembrandt merely, as so many of his pupils were, 
 but an original creator, anxious above all for the truth, and who is the equal, at 
 least, of his fellow-artists, Ferdinand Bol (whom he excels in penetration), or Fictoor. 
 It is true that there is lacking here that magic atmosphere in which Rembrandt 
 seems to bathe his subjects, and about which, to use Fromentin’s expression,—there 
 is an indefinable something of the other world which makes the present one seem 
 cold and grow pale beside it: but the keenness of observation, the intensity of life, 
 the sweeping strokes, the beauty of the composition, which one feels is soft and 
 rich, all the characteristics of a great artist, where can one find them more completely, 
 more in abundance, if not here? We are concerned with an artist, who is not only 
 accustomed to the difficulties to be met with in his work, for he is complete master 
 of his brush, but 
 
 and this is no less essential for a portraitist—with one who is a 
 keen observer, well trained, taught to scrutinize and search for the inmost, hidden 
 truth, from external appearances. Less skilled, indeed, than Frans Hals, but in 
 his order and simplicity, his deep and touching manner, consider and admire how 
 he has made the features, lacking in beauty, express bright intelligence, and made 
 us see, in this Dutch bourgeois, a man of means, but without vain display or self- 
 conceit, a pleasant looking man, mentally alert, prudent in judgment, probably the 
 founder or ‘regent’ of some hospital: the high vaulted gallery and building resem- 
 bling a chapel which can be seen through the bay window of the room where he is 
 standing, would warrant this supposition. Notice, too, the sombre distinction in the 
 arrangement of the picture, in the pose and dress of the figure, where the broad 
 and delicate strokes of white showing the lingerie collar and cuffs just relieve the 
 severity of the dark garments, which are a rich and soft black, according to those 
 who have seen the original. The excellent photographic reproduction which we see 
 here enables us to guess at the harmony in values, the richness of the composition, and 
 must afford an unusually fine treat to amateurs in good painting. The more one 
 studies the picture, the more it grows on one. Since this striking figure was revealed 
 to us, and we study it trying to fathom the provoking enigma there concealed, we 
 discover deeper beauty in it day by day. And so we appreciate the thought of the 
 dealer who had the painting in his possession for a short time: although he was 
 used to parting with treasures, the thought of this painting still haunts him, and 
 he admits he regrets having let it go. 
 
 “All this but arouses our curiosity the more, and the question we asked our- 
 selves, a little while ago, returns more insistently, and we write: Who is Louis 
 Vallé? and who will give us the information which we have a right to desire con- 
 cerning so great an artist.”
