ees, servants or agents shall be responsible for any error of description
or for the condition or authenticity of any Lot. No warranty whatsoever is
given by the seller or Auctioneer or by any of their employees, servants
or agents in respect of any Lot and any condition or warranty express or

Forgeries
19. Any amount paid by a buyer in respect of a Lot which, if it is proved
within 3 years of the date of the auction at which it was purchased, to

sions hereof, provided that:

that the Lot was a Forgery would have been by means of scientific pro
cesses which were not generally accepted for use until after the date of
the auction or which were unresonably expensive or impratical.
The buyer’s sole entitlement under this condition is to a refund of the
actual amount paid by him in respect of the Lot. Under no circumstances
shall the Auctioneer be liable for any damage, loss (including consequen
tial, indirect or economic loss) or expense suffered or incurred by the
buyer by reason of the Lot being a Forgery. The benefit of this condition

seller shall pay the Auctioneer a contribution towards such insurance at
the rate of 1.5% of the Hammer Price plus VAT. If the seller instructs the

risk of the seller who undertakes to indemnify the Auctioneer and hold
the Auctioneer harmless against any and all claims made or proceedings
brought against the Auctioneer of whatever nature and howsoever and
wheresoever occurring for loss or damage to the Lot. The sum for which
a Lot is covered for insurance under this condition shall not constitute
