Many factors have shaped painting in Indonesia: its natural environment, historical events, traditional features of culture, its religions and various beliefs, as well as other Eastern cultures from outside the archipelago including those of India and China. Later on Western, colonial inuences also had their part. However, these cultural rubbings had a far from one-way effect, but brought about mutual inuences. Rudolf Bonnets elongated gures for example were inuenced by the Balinese deformative sculptures, while simultaneously, Bonnet and other European artists in their active interaction with the local community encouraged the Indonesian painters to portray what they saw and felt during daily life without abandoning existing themes of religious and philosophical nature. Between 1900 and 1942 two different forms of paintings coexisted within the Dutch-Indies: the romanticist Mooi Indi art, and the Modern avant-garde art. The Mooi Indi art consisted of a group of painters of various descents. Their work, in an impressionist style, heralded the countrys idyllic scenery and its inhabitants, and represented their love and admiration for Indonesia. Meanwhile, painters,
who before their arrival in Indonesia, received an art education in Europe, introduced the modern avant-garde art. They did not only differ from the Mooi Indi art in their modern, expressionist, gurative or even surrealist style of painting but also in their active involvement with the local community and local artists as well as their attitude towards the colonial establishment. The modern avant-gardists provided inspiration for a generation of young Indonesian painters in the larger cities of Java (Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya and Yogyakarta) which, after 1945, sought to redene and invigorate a national identity through art. They found this in the common, humble, yet proud and self-reliant individuals within the communitys day-to-day life. With the works of artists such as: Roland Strasser, Han Snel, Haji Widayat, Leo Eland, Ger Adolfs, Frits Ohl, Piet Ouborg, Rudolf Bonnet, Auke Sonnega, Isaac Israels, W.G. Hofker, Willem Dooijewaard and Abdul Aziz the Indonesian section in this Nineteen to Now sale is exceptional in its diversity and quality.

NEO RAUCH
LOTS 284 291
Neo Rauch (Leipzig, b.1960) is known for his puzzling, seemingly narrative works. This collection of drawings and lithographs is made in his recognizable style. Some are in black and white. But he favours an idiosyncratically mat, broken colouristic, that unites all his works. It originates in his predilection for an old-fashioned form of childrens books and especially from his joy in the shrill colours of cheap comics. The people in them are busy with something or other; they dont seem to entirely t in with their surroundings. Rauch has developed a highly individual style, a mix of realism, abstraction with a surrealist touch, and inuences from pop art and comic strips. His dreamlike compositions seem to be peopled by memories of the GDR. Graphic art is part of Neo Rauchs complete oeuvre, even if he has created far fewer prints than drawings. Like his drawings, his prints are hardly preliminary sketches or imitations of his paintings. Certainly, his graphic art does not arise independently from his paintings, but neither is it created in a dependence that lags behind them.1 The drawings have been a long time in the making. They can be everything a sketch, a design or an impression that nds no expression in my larger paintings. They are like creatures looming on the sidelines of my creation. I actually have learned only lately to appreciate them as a witness of time passing and my own development. The drawings are very rarely a preparation for a next step in a large painting, but they have been companions along the way. Quite often they are rarities and exceptions in my work: I nd different motives and different physiognomies in them then I might normally use. I have often been criticised for using a face of the Fifties, or of working somehow retrospectively. I refuse to be categorised and wish to stay in control of my art. I cannot and will not change my voice. 2
LOT 288
Neo Rauch addresses the fundamental issues of art in the modern era the relationship between plane and spatial illusion, between abstraction and guration in a new way. Solutions dont come into it. My pictures supposedly have a vital quality, like an animal, a living thing. There is no need to understand, only to feel that this creature is, to the greatest possible degree, at peace with itself. It is not always possible to realise, but thats how I imagine a functioning picture. As soon as I have the feeling that the thing has blood circulating through it, a nervous system, a skeleton, then questions as to the message become completely marginal. 3

Compare with the cont drawing and etching of the same subject: B. Carpenter, Willem Hofker, Painter of Bali, Wijk en Aalburg, 1993, p. 89, p. 195.
The present lot bears an intimate quality because of the model, the date, the frame, and its provenance. Ni Gusti Kompiang Mawar was probably one of Hofkers most favorite models. The Balinese dancer and accomplished weaver was portrayed by him several times in oil, cont drawing and, upon returning to the Netherlands after World War II, in etching and mezzotint. The etching (g. 1) is based on the present lot. Hofker arrived on Bali in 1938, and lived there until 1943, when he and his wife Maria were interned by the Japanese. He has portrayed Kompiang Mawar several times during his stay on Bali. The present lot, dated 1940, is probably one of the rst, if not the rst known portrait of her by Hofker. The portrait of Ni Gusti Kompiang Mawar, dated 1943, (sold in these rooms on 20 November 2012 as lot 27 for 650,000 hammer price) which
shows Kompiang in a ceremonial dress, while elegantly gazing down, is comparable to the present lot. Although slightly more modest in size, the relaxed manner in which Kompiang is seated, loosely holding the basket, makes it into a most convincing painting within Hofkers oeuvre. The toned-down colours of her dress and the background further add to the intimate quality. This portrait of Kompiang was not only one of the rst portraits Hofker ever made of her, it was also the portrait of her he would hold on to the longest, until 1969. In a letter to the new owner, late 1969, he wrote: Bijzonder getroffen was ik dat Goesti Compiang Mawars beeltenis zoo onverwachts een begrijpend tehuis kreeg: herinneringen aan ons Indi.....! (Ive been especially touched by the fact that Gusti Kompiang Mawars portrait would, so unexpectedly, nd a new and understanding home: memories of our (Dutch East) Indies....!). In a second letter Hofker wrote he was working on the frame, which in the end would be delivered early 1970. Hofker used to make, or at least decorate, the frames around the works of art that we assume were most precious to him. In this case, Hofker coloured the hand-made frame, and used his spattering technique, that he started using in Bali together with his close friend Rudolf Bonnet. This Hofker frame, embracing Gusti Kompiangs portrait, enhances the sensation that the painting remained in a highly original state over many years. To be included in the forthcoming publication on W.G. Hofker, currently being prepared by Seline Hofker and Gianni Orsini. We kindly thank Gianni Orsini and Seline Hofker fig.1 W.G. Hofker, Ni Gusti Kompiang Mawar, etching, 1948. for their help in cataloguing the present lot.

Willem Dooijewaard was both painter and adventurer; seized by the urge to undertake extensive journeys in search of eclectic new experiences and painting subjects. He was willing to endure great hardship while traveling by foot or on horseback through the most insular and remote regions in order to depict his colourful exotic scenes. Dooijewaard shared his appetite for adventure and modern gurative style of painting with his close friend Roland Strasser. Both had a predilection for raw and real people and therefore refrained from using models as much as possible.
Together they made breathtaking journeys through the Dutch Indies, Central Asia and Japan. In these distant countries and amid their exotic peoples they created some of their most important works. The works by Dooijewaard and Strasser in this current sale can be considered prime examples of their versatile, exotic oeuvres, as well as a testimony to their explorative, even heroic journeys.

This lot is owned in whole or in part by Christies. ~ Import restrictions may apply or a CITES Licence might be required as this lot contains material from endangered species. l RTISTS RESALE RIGHT REGULATIONS A (DROIT DE SUITE/VOLGRECHT) If a lot is affected by this right it will be identified with the symbol l next to the lot number.

IMPORTANT NOTICES CHRISTIES INTEREST IN PROPERTY CONSIGNED FOR AUCTION From time to time, Christies may offer a lot which it owns in whole or in part. Such property is identified in the catalogue with the symbol next to its lot number. On occasion, Christies has a direct financial interest in lots consigned for sale, which may include guaranteeing a minimum price or making an advance to the consignor that is secured solely by consigned property. Such property is identified in the catalogue with the symbol next to the lot number. This symbol will be used both in cases where Christies holds the financial interest on its own, and in cases where Christies has financed all or part of such interest through third parties. When a third party agrees to finance all or part of Christies interest in a lot, it takes on all or part of the risk of the lot not being sold, and will be remunerated in exchange for accepting this risk. The third party may also bid for the lot. Where it does so, and is the successful bidder, the remuneration may be netted against the final purchase price. If the lot is not sold, the third party may incur a loss. Where Christies has an ownership or financial interest in every lot in the catalogue, Christies will not designate each lot with a symbol, but will state its interest at the front of the catalogue. ALL DIMENSIONS ARE APPROXIMATE. Picture lots are sold framed, unless otherwise stated. Measurements: height precedes width. CONDITION REPORTS Christies catalogues include references to condition only in descriptions of multiple works (such as prints, books and wine). For all other property, only alterations or replacement components are listed. Please contact the Specialist Department for a condition report on a particular lot. Condition reports are provided as a service to interested clients. Prospective Buyers should note that descriptions of property are not warranties and that each lot is sold as is. PROPERTY INCORPORATING MATERIALS FROM ENDANGERED AND OTHER PROTECTED SPECIES Property made of or incorporating (irrespective of percentage) endangered and other protected species of wildlife are marked with the symbol ~ in the catalogue. Such material includes, among other things, ivory, tortoiseshell, crocodile skin, rhinoceros horn, whale bone and certain species of coral, together with Brazilian rosewood. Prospective purchasers are advised that several countries prohibit altogether the importation of property containing such materials, and that other countries require a permit (e.g., a CITES permit) from the relevant regulatory agencies in the countries of exportation as well as importation. Accordingly, clients should familiarize themselves with the relevant customs laws and regulations prior to bidding on any property with wildlife material if they intend to import the property into another country. For example, the U.S. generally prohibits the importation of articles containing species that it has designated as endangered or threatened if those articles are less than 100 years old. Please note that it is the clients responsibility to determine and satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws or regulations applying to the export or import of property containing endangered and other protected wildlife material. The inability of a client to export or import property containing endangered and other protected wildlife material is not a basis for cancellation or rescission of the sale. Please note also that lots containing potentially regulated wildlife material are marked as a convenience to our clients, but Christies does not accept liability for errors or for failing to mark lots containing protected or regulated species.

A GUIDE TO CHRISTIES CATALOGUING PRACTICE Some of the terms we use in catalogue descriptions might be unfamiliar to you. Weve outlined below these expressions and their explanations. PICTURES, DRAWINGS, PRINTS AND MINIATURES The following expressions with their accompanying explanations are used by Christies as standard cataloguing practice. Our use of these expressions does not take account of the condition of the lot or of the extent of any restoration. Buyers are recommended to inspect the property themselves. Written condition reports are usually available on request. Name(s) or Recognised Designation of an Artist without any Qualification In our opinion a work by the artist. * Attributed to In our opinion probably a work by the artist in whole or in part. * Studio of / Workshop of In our opinion a work executed in the studio or workshop of the artist, possibly under his supervision. * Circle of In our opinion a work of the period of the artist and showing his influence. * Follower of In our opinion a work executed in the artists style but not necessarily by a pupil. * Manner of In our opinion a work executed in the artists style but of a later date. * After In our opinion a copy (of any date) of a work of the artist. Signed /Dated / Inscribed In our opinion the work has been signed/dated/inscribed by the artist. With signature / With date / With inscription In our opinion the signature/date/inscription appears to be by a hand other than that of the artist. The date given for Old Master, Modern and Contemporary Prints is the date (or approximate date when prefixed with circa) on which the matrix was worked and not necessarily the date when the impression was printed or published. Measurements are taken where possible, from the platemark (P), otherwise they record the size of the sheet (S) or the borderline of the subject (L). * This term and its definition in this explanation of Cataloguing Practice are a qualified statement as to authorship. While the use of this term is based upon careful study and represents the opinion of specialists, Christies and the consignor assume no risk, liability and responsibility for the authenticity of authorship of any lot in this catalogue described by this term.

A GUIDE TO BUYING AT CHRISTIES CONDITIONS OF SALE Christies Conditions of Sale and limited warranty are set out later in this catalogue. Bidders are strongly encouraged to read these as they set out the terms on which property is bought at auction. ESTIMATES Estimates are based upon prices recently paid at auction for comparable property, condition, rarity, quality and provenance. Estimates are subject to revision. Buyers should not rely upon estimates as a representation or prediction of actual selling prices. Estimates do not include the buyers premium or VAT. Where Estimate on Request appears, please contact the Specialist Department for further information. RESERVES The reserve is the confidential minimum price the consignor will accept and will not exceed the low pre-sale estimate. Lots that are not subject to a reserve are identified by the symbol next to the lot number. BUYERS PREMIUM Christies charges a premium to the buyer on the Hammer Price of each lot sold at the following rates: 30.25% of the Hammer Price of each lot up to and including 20,000, plus 24.2% of the Hammer Price between 20,001 and 800,000, plus 14.52% of any amount in excess of 800,000. Buyers premium is calculated on the basis of each lot individually. PRE-AUCTION VIEWING Pre-auction viewings are open to the public free of charge. Christies specialists are available to give advice and condition reports at viewings or by appointment. BIDDER REGISTRATION Prospective buyers who have not previously bid or consigned with Christies should bring: Individuals: government-issued photo identification (such as a driving licence, national identity card, or passport) and, if not shown on the ID document, proof of current address, for example a utility bill or bank statement.

Persons registering to bid on behalf of someone who has not previously bid or consigned with Christies should bring identification documents not only for themselves but also for the party on whose behalf they are bidding, together with a signed letter of authorisation from that party. To allow sufficient time to process the information, new clients are encouraged to register at least 48 hours in advance of a sale. Prospective buyers should register for a numbered bidding paddle at least 30 minutes before the auction. Clients who have not made a purchase from any Christies office within the last two years and those wishing to spend more than on previous occasions, will be asked to supply a new bank reference. For assistance with references, please contact Christies Credit Department at +31 (0)20 575 52 11. REGISTERING TO BID ON SOMEONE ELSES BEHALF Persons bidding on behalf of an existing client should bring a signed letter from the client authorising the bidder to act on the clients behalf. Please note that Christies does not accept payments from third parties. Christies can only accept payment from the client, and not from the person bidding on their behalf. BIDDING The auctioneer accepts bids from those present in the saleroom, from telephone bidders, or by absentee written bids left with Christies in advance of the auction. The auctioneer may also execute bids on behalf of the seller up to the amount of the reserve. The auctioneer will not specifically identify bids placed on behalf of the seller. Under no circumstances will the auctioneer place any bid on behalf of the seller at or above the reserve. Bid steps are shown on the Absentee Bids Form at the back of this catalogue. 78
ABSENTEE BIDS Absentee bids are written instructions from prospective buyers directing Christies to bid on their behalf up to a maximum amount specified for each lot. Christies staff will attempt to execute an absentee bid at the lowest possible price taking into account the reserve price. Absentee bids submitted on no reserve lots will, in the absence of a higher bid, be executed at approximately 50% of the low pre sale estimate or at the amount of the bid if it is less than 50% of the low pre-sale estimate.The auctioneer may execute absentee bids directly from the rostrum, clearly identifying these as absentee bids, book bids, order bids or commission bids. Absentee Bids Forms are available in this catalogue, at any Christies location, or online at christies.com. Absentee bids must be received at least 24 hours before the auction begins. TELEPHONE BIDS Telephone bids cannot be accepted for lots estimated below 2,200. Arrangements must be confirmed with the Bid Department at least 24 hours prior to the auction at +31 (0)20 575 59 50. Arrangements to bid in languages other than Dutch and English must be made well in advance of the sale date. Telephone bids may be recorded. By bidding on the telephone, prospective purchasers consent to the recording of their conversation. AUCTIONEERS DISCRETION The auctioneer can acting reasonably; (a) refuse any bid; (b) move the bidding backwards or forwards in any way he or she may decide or change the bidding order; (c) withdraw or divide any lot; (d) combine any two or more lots; (e) in the case of a mistake (whether or not made by Christies) or a dispute as to the successful bidder (whether during or after the auction, including after the fall of the hammer) restart or continue the bidding, cancel the sale of the lot or resell or reoffer a lot. If any dispute arises after the auction the auctioneers decision is final. SUCCESSFUL BIDS The fall of the auctioneers hammer indicates the final bid, at which time, the buyer assumes full responsibility for the lot. The results of absentee bids will be mailed after the auction. Successful bidders will pay the price of the final bid plus premium plus any applicable VAT. PAYMENT Buyers are expected to pay for purchases immediately after the auction. Payment can be made in cash, cheque, or by bank transfer in Euros to Christies Stichting Derdengelden: ABN Amro Bank N.

LOCAL TAXES AND VAT If a Lot is marked + or !, it will have a special VAT status and will be subject to higher rates as follows:
!: Lot is imported from outside the EU. For each Lot the Buyers Premium is calculated as 37.05% of the Hammer Price up to a value of 20,000, plus 31.1% of the Hammer Price between 20,001 and 800,000, plus 21.58% of any amount in excess of 800,000. + : 19% VAT applies to both the Hammer Price and the Buyers Premium. The Buyers Premium is calculated for each lot as 51.25% of the Hammer Price up to a value of 20,000, plus 45.2% of the Hammer Price between 20,001 and 800,000, plus 35.52% of any amount in excess of 800,000.

Netherlands tax authorities will not accept photocopies. - The purchase invoice must be addressed to a party resident outside of the EU. Christies remains liable to account for VAT on all Lots unless the conditions listed above are satisfied. Therefore Buyers will generally be asked to initially deposit all amounts of VAT invoiced. To apply for a refund the appropriate export evidence must be sent to Christies accounts department clearly marked VAT REFUND. There will be an administration charge of 35 payable to Christies for this service. An immediate refund of VAT is possible if shipping is arranged by Christies within 2 months of the date of the sale. SHIPPING A shipping form is enclosed with each invoice to buyers outside of the Netherlands. It is the buyers responsibility to pick up purchases or make all shipping arrangements. After payment has been made in full, Christies can arrange property packing and shipping at the buyers request and expense. Buyers should request an estimate for any large items or property of high value that require professional packing. For more information please contact the Shipping Department at +31 (0)20 575 52 52. INSURANCE AND STORAGE Buyers are advised to arrange their own insurance cover as soon as practicable after the sale. Please note that (subject to availability of space at our premises) all uncollected purchases may be transferred to third party storage at your expense if you fail to arrange timely collection or to issue instructions for shipping. VAT BUYERS FROM WITHIN THE EU Buyers who are resident outside The Netherlands, but within the EU, and who have obtained a valid VAT identification number that has been made known to Christies before or immediately after the sale, and who furthermore comply with all other conditions specified by Christies, will be eligible for a VAT rate of 0 %. The buyer guarantees to Christies the correctness of all information provided. Lots that are sold in accordance with the above, shall be ineligible to be resold under the Margin Scheme. EXPORT/IMPORT PERMIT Overseas buyers are advised to familiarise themselves with any restrictions or licence requirements relating to their intended purchases. In case of doubt, buyers are advised to consult their local customs authority or a reputable international shipper. Export licences in the Netherlands can usually be obtained within two to four weeks. Sellers and Buyers are advised that the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sciences may designate cultural objects as protected cultural objects, in which case restrictions with regard to the exportation and transfer of title of these objects apply. Sellers and Buyers are further advised that certain objects may fall within the scope of EUregulation no 3911/92, as a consequence of which an export licence from the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sciences may be required if the objects are to be exported to a country outside of the EU. An export licence issued by the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality, Department CITES will be required for the export of any item made of, or incorporating (irrespective of percentage) animal material such as ivory, whalebone, tortoiseshell, rhinoceros horn etc. and this generally takes up to 8 weeks. Clients are advised to check with the regulating body in the country of importation regarding items within this category - some countries have an absolute ban on the importation of certain materials.
Conditions of Sale
These Conditions of Sale and the information set out in the All You Need to Know section of the catalogue set out the terms governing the legal relationship of Christies and the seller with the buyer. You should read them carefully before bidding.
The following Conditions of Sale apply to the legal relationship between Christies Amsterdam B.V. (hereinafter: Christies) and the participants in the auctions held by Christies and related activities. By participating in the auction, the persons who bid at the auctions held by Christies (hereinafter: Intending Buyer(s)) accept the applicability of these Conditions of Sale. Christies therefore request Intending Buyers to read carefully both the Conditions of Sale and the definitions of some of the terms used in the catalogue. For ease of reference, the Conditions of Sale are divided into sections: Section A gives a background to some of the terms used in the Conditions generally; section B to (Intending) Buyers; and section C contains some general provisions. (A) BACKGROUND TO TERMS USED IN THESE CONDITIONS 1. In the conditions set out below, some terms are used regularly that need explanation. They are as follows: - The Buyer means the person with the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer, assuming this highest bid is at least equal to the Reserve, if any; - The Buyers premium means the charge payable by the Buyer as a percentage of the Hammer Price, at the rates set out in Article B.4.; - Condition report means additional information on a particular lot in the catalogue, as supplied by Christies; - The Consignment Agreement means the written agreement between Christies and the Seller containing the instruction from the Seller to Christies to sell the Lots during one or several auctions; - Forgery means a Lot constituting an imitation originally conceived and executed as a whole with a fraudulent intention to deceive as to authorship, origin, age, period, culture or source where the correct description as to such matters is not reflected by the description in the catalogue and which at the date of the auction had a value materially less than it would have had if it had been in accordance with the description in the catalogue. Accordingly, no Lot shall be capable of being a Forgery by reason of any damage and/or restoration work of any kind (including repainting); - The Hammer Price means the amount of the highest bid accepted by the auctioneer in relation to a Lot; - Margin Scheme means that the Buyers Premium includes VAT as set out in Article B.4; - Lot means any object or set of objects accepted by Christies for the purpose of selling the same at the auction and described in the catalogue under one lot number; - Proceeds of Sale means the Hammer Price less the commission and V.A.T. chargeable thereon and less all costs payable to Christies; - Purchase Price means the Hammer Price plus the Buyers premium and all other costs payable to Christies (including the resale royalty) plus any applicable VAT; - The Reserve means the amount below which Christies agree with the Seller that the Lot cannot be sold; - The Seller means the person offering an object or a set of objects to Christies for sale at one of the auctions held by Christies; (B) THE BUYER 1. THE BUYER (a) The Buyer is the person accepted as the highest bidder by Christies acting as agents for the Seller. The decision whether or not to accept a bid shall be made by Christies. Subject to the provisions of the section marked Auctioneers Discretion set out in the Buying at Christies, the purchase agreement between the Seller and the Buyer comes into being at the moment when Christies accept a bid as the highest bid. (b) When making a bid, a bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the purchase price, including buyers premium and all applicable taxes, plus all other applicable charges, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with Christies before the commencement of the sale that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to Christies, and that Christies will only look to the principal for payment. (c) Anyone wishing to bid at an auction must fill out and sign a registration form before the beginning of the auction. 2. CHRISTIES ACTING AS REPRESENTATIVES (a) In effecting sales Christies are acting as representatives for the Seller. Christies do not warrant to the Intending Buyers that the Sellers have the right of disposal of the objects sent in, nor that the objects are not charged with real rights or leased out, nor that all legal requirements relating to any export or import of the objects have been complied with. (b) Christies are not obliged to disclose the name of the Seller to the Intending Buyer or the Buyer. (c) Christies recommend Intending Buyers to attend the auction and to make bids themselves. (d) If an Intending Buyer gives Christies instructions to bid on his behalf, by using the form printed after the catalogue entries, Christies shall - without charging any additional fee - use reasonable efforts to do so, provided the instructions are received not later than 24 hours before the auction. If Christies receive commission bids on a particular Lot for identical amounts, and at auction these bids are the highest bids for the Lot, it will be sold to the person whose bid was received first. Commission bids are accepted by Christies subject to other commitments at the time of the sale, and the conduct of the sale may be such that Christies are unable to bid as requested. Christies do not accept liability whatsoever for failure to make a commission bid or for failure to correctly execute a commission bid. Intending Buyers should therefore always attend personally if they wish to be certain of bidding. (e) If an Intending Buyer makes arrangements with Christies not later than 24 hours before the auction, Christies shall - without charging any additional fee use reasonable efforts to contact the Intending Buyer to enable him to participate in bidding by telephone. Christies does not accept liability whatsoever for failure to make a telephone bid or for failure to correctly execute a telephone bid. 3. DESCRIPTIONS IN THE CATALOGUE AND VIDEO IMAGES (a) All statements of Christies in the catalogue and condition reports as to the (presumptive) designer, author, writer, origin, date, age, genuineness, source, provenance, condition or estimated Hammer Price of any Lot are statements of opinion only and shall never imply any guarantee by Christies. All illustrations in the catalogue serve merely as guidance for Intending Buyers; they do not provide any decisive information as to pattern, colours and degree of damage of any Lot. (b) Lots may be in imperfect condition. The absence of any reference in the catalogue to defects in a Lot does not imply that such Lot is free from defects, nor does reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. (c) Intending Buyers will have to form an opinion regarding the matters discussed in paragraph (a) and paragraph (b) above by personal inspection or otherwise during the previews. (d) Without prejudice to the provisions in paragraph (a) and paragraph (b) above, neither Christies nor their employees or representatives give any guarantee as to the correctness or completeness of any information supplied either verbally or in writing about any Lot. (e) If within one year after the auction the Buyer proves that a Lot bought by him is a Forgery, the sale of the Lot shall be cancelled and the Purchase Price shall be refunded by Christies to the Buyer.
