Lots will be sold in their numbered sequence unless the Auctioneer directs otherwise.

We and the Seller are not responsible for errors and omissions in a Catalogue, online descriptions or any other supplemental material whether oral or written.
(b) Evaluation; Item Descriptions. All descriptions, photographs, illustrations, and terminology used in a Catalog, online descriptions, bill of sale, invoice, or anywhere else, represent a good faith effort made by us to fairly represent the Lots; they are statements of opinion only. All such statements by us are not representations or warranties and Bidder agrees and acknowledges that it shall not rely on them in determining whether or not to Bid or for what price. Bidders are responsible to inspect and evaluate each Lot prior to bidding.
(c) Catalogues.

Descriptions of Lots therein are not comprehensive and may contain errors. We do not represent or warrant any aspect of content in the Catalogues or online descriptions other than the Authenticity of Lots as provided below.
8. Authenticity Warranty.
(a) Authenticity.

(b) Authenticity Warranty. We make no representations or warranties to information not explicitly contained in COA.

If it is determined to our satisfaction that the Authenticity is incorrect, the sale will be rescinded if the Lot is returned to us in the same condition in which it was at the time of sale. We reserve the right to require the Purchaser to obtain, at the Purchaser’s expense, the opinion of an expert in the field, mutually acceptable to us and the Purchaser, before we agree to rescind the sale under the warranty. This warranty is not assignable and applies only to the original Purchaser on record with The Fine Art Auction. This warranty does not transfer to any subsequent owners of any purchased property (this includes without limitation, heirs, successors, beneficiaries or assigns).
(c) Remedies. Your sole remedy is rescission; such remedy is exclusive and in lieu of any other remedy available at law, or in equity.
(d) Exclusions. Exclusions will be made and the forgoing warranty does not apply to Authenticity which on the date of sale was in accordance with the then generally accepted opinion of scholars and specialists, or the identification of periods or dates of execution which may be proven inaccurate by means of scientific processes not generally accepted for use until after publication of the Catalogue or online description, or which were unreasonably expensive or impractical or commercially unreasonable to employ in our sole discretion.
