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.

 Payment of that part of the purchase money not made at the 
 time of sale shall be made within ten days thereafter, in default 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) arising from such re-sale shall

 it is sold ‘as is” and without recourse. 
 
 The Association exercises great care to catalogue every lot cor- 
 rectly, and will give consideration to the opinion of any trustworthy 
 expert to the effect that any lot has been incorrectly catalogued, and, 
 in its judgment, may either sell the lot as catalogued or make mention

 for such damage as might result were his opinion without proper 
 
 foundation.

 A Frencu cottage interior with a man, seated, an elderly woman and

 ish gray, affording effective relief for the figures which are painted with 
 much skill. Details are highly finished but not so much so as to detract 
 from the agreeable and unified ensemble.

 of his favorite subjects, drawn from the robust peasant life of France.

 Height, 221 inches; width, 1714 inches 
 
 On a cloudy evening in Holland, with a wide roadway drenched with 
 rain and a windswept sky of grays and warm whites, a peasant woman 
 is bringing home her cows from pasture. They advance along the road 
 in single file led by one with red-brown body and white face. At the 
 left the road is banked with trees and in the distance the plain beyond 
 meets the sky, where it is suffused with the warm tints of sunset. The 
 subdued tints of the color scheme produce a restrained and harmonious 
 ensemble.

 ABOVE a wide stretch of rolling country with meadows, harvest fields, 
 trees and a road leading over the hillsides past a farmhouse, on the left 
 in the middle distance, rises a high sky of broken clouds, dark and 
 threatening as the storm passes to the left, with gray and white in 
 other portions. Through rifts in the clouds where patches of brilliant 
 blue are seen the sun shines on the distant country producing an 
 effective contrast. This landscape is notable for the harmonious unity 
 of diverse features and for the effective rendering of a fleeting phase of 
 Nature’s changes.

 environment unite to produce a notable example of the work of the 
 Dutch master.
