Im Jänner 1896, nur wenige Monate nach der bahnbrechenden
Entdeckung einer neuen Art von Strahlen durch den Mediziner
und Universitätsprofessors Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen 1895,
führen Josef Maria Eder und Eduard Valenta an der „k. u. k.
Graphischen Lehr-und Versuchsanstalt“ in Wien ihre ersten von
vielen Experimenten mit Röntgenstrahlen durch. Die unsichtbaren Strahlen schafften nicht nur neue Perspektiven und
Anwendungsgebiete in der modernen Wissenschaft, sondern
verhalfen auch der Fotografie zu neuen Möglichkeiten. Durch
das Durchleuchten von bisher verborgenen inneren Strukturen
entstand dieser Bildatlas „Versuche über Photographie mittelst
der Röntgen’schen Strahlen“. Die 15 fotografisch festgehaltenen,
gestochen scharfen Röntgenaufnahmen von Fischen, Amphibien
und Reptilien sind nicht nur ein spannendes wissenschaftliches
Zeugnis, sondern auf Grund ihrer perfekten PhotogravüreTechnik und Eleganz, in diesem Bereich die am meisten beachteten und reproduzierten Ikonen.
In 1895 the physician and university professor Wilhelm Conrad
Röntgen made his breakthrough discovery of a new type of rays.
Only a few months later in January 1896, Josef Maria Eder and
Eduard Valenta conducted their first of many experiments with
X-rays in the “k. u. k. Graphische Lehr-und Versuchsanstalt” in
Vienna. The invisible rays offered not only new perspectives and
applications in modern science, but also enabled the recording of
previously hidden inner structures. The portfolio “Versuche über
Photographie mittelst der Röntgen’schen Strahlen” is comprised
of 15 photographically captured, needle-sharp X-ray images
of fish, amphibians and reptiles. The images are not only an
exciting scientific testimony, but also due to their perfect photogravure technique and elegance, they are the most recognized
and reproduced icons in this field.

Die 89 Stereo-Ansichten mit dazu

China während des Boxeraufstands
(1899–1901). Die Bewegung gegen das
Christentum und den Imperialismus
Europas, Nordamerikas und Japans
führte zu kriegsähnlichen Zuständen.
Aufnahmen von christlich-asiatischen
Flüchtlingen, Exekutionen auf beiden
Seiten, militärischen Sujets, Gefangenenlagern, Alltagsszenen der Bevölkerung und Porträts von Diplomaten
und chinesischen Funktionären
geben eine traurige Bestandsaufnahme der damals vorherrschenden
Realität.

The 89 stereo views with detailed
typographic inscriptions offer an
interesting and objective overview
of the situation in China during
the Boxer Rebellion (1899–1901).
The movement against Christianity
and the imperialisms of Europe,
North America and Japan led to
war-like conditions. Photographs of
Christian-Asian refugees, executions
on both sides, military subjects,
prison camps, scenes of everyday
life of the population and portraits
of diplomats and Chinese officials
provide a sad report of the prevailing
reality of that time.

Die Mappe mit 20 handsignierten Heliogravüren und 25
Zinkgravüren nach Gummidrucken von Henneberg, Kühn
und Watzek, war die erste ausschließlich dem ‚Trifolium‘
gewidmete Publikation. Herausgegeben wurde sie 1902 von
Fritz Matthies-Masuren im renommierten Wilhelm Knapp
Verlag in Halle. Matthies-Masuren, Künstler und Publizist,
widmete sich ab 1898 vermehrt dem Trifolium und war ein
unermüdlicher Promotor des Gummidrucks; der für ihn die
technisch anspruchsvollste und künstlerisch wertvollste
Methode der Kunstfotografie darstellte. Das gut erhaltene
und höchst seltene Exemplar kommt aus der privaten Bibliothek von Victor Thonet und trägt die handschriftliche
Nummerierung „8“. Die Nr. 2 war das private Exemplar
Heinrich Kühns; insgesamt dürften nur wenige signierte
Sammlerexemplare angefertigt worden sein. Einige der darin
vorkommenden Motive wurden ein paar Jahre später (1906)
dem internationalen Publikum in Camera Work 13 präsentiert.
Kühns originale Stegemann Kamera wird am 22. März in der
WestLicht Kamera-Auktion versteigert.
The portfolio consisting of 20 signed heliogravures and 25
zinc gravures after gum prints by Henneberg, Kühn and
Watzek, was the first publication dedicated entirely to the
‘Trifolium’. It was issued in 1902 by Fritz Matthies-Masuren
in the prestigious Wilhelm Knapp Verlag in Halle. MatthiesMasuren, artist and writer, devoted himself from 1898 to the
Austrian Trifolium and was a tireless promoter of the gum
print, which was in his opinion the most technically and
artistically valuable method of art photography. The wellpreserved and rare copy comes from the private library of
Victor Thonet and bears the handwritten numbering “8”.
The no. 2 was the private copy of Heinrich Kühn and
only a few signed collector’s editions have been published.
Some of the appearing motifs were presented to an inter
national audience in Camera Work 13 in 1906. Kühn’s original
Stegemann camera will be auctioned on March 22nd in the
WestLicht camera auction.

nicht nur das Zuhause des Jazz, sondern
zwischen 1896 und 1917 eines der wenigen
legalisierten Rotlichtviertel der USA.
Bellocqs einzig erhaltenes Werkfragment
‚Storyville Portraits‘ wurde erst durch die
Prints von Lee Friedlander bekannt. Friedlander erwarb die 8 × 10 inch Glasnegative
1966 von einem Kunsthändler und fertigte in
den darauffolgenden Jahren meisterliche
Kontaktabzüge auf warmgetöntem Papier
an. 1970 widmete das New Yorker Museum
of Modern Art der Storyville-Serie eine
eigene Ausstellung.
The Storyville district in New Orleans was
not only the home of jazz, but also one of the
few legalized red-light districts in the United
States between 1896 and 1917. Bellocq’s only
surviving work, ‘Storyville Portraits’, is
known only through the distinctive prints
made by Lee Friedlander. Friedlander
bought the 8 × 10 inch glass negatives in 1966
from an art dealer and produced masterful
contact prints on warm toned paper in the
following years. In 1970 the Museum of
Modern Art in New York dedicated a solo
exhibition to the Storyville series.

Nach Studien der Mathematik, Physik und Kunstgeschichte
und vor ihrer Übersiedelung nach Paris (1930) beschäftigte
sich Bing mit fotojournalistischen Arbeiten in ihrer Heimatstadt Frankfurt. Der Choreograf und Tanztheoretiker Rudolf
von Laban, welcher die „Labanotation“, eine systematische
Analyse und Aufzeichnung menschlicher Bewegungen
begründete, gründete 1923 die erste Laban Schule in Hamburg,
weitere 24 Schulen, u. a. auch selbige in Frankfurt, deren
Tänzer Ilse Bing 1929 in dieser Studie festhielt, folgten. Das
Thema Tanz beschäftigt Bing auch noch in Paris, wo sie vielfältige Aufnahmen der Pariser Ballett- und Tanzszene machte.
After studies in mathematics, physics and art history, and
before moving to Paris in 1930, Ilse Bing engaged herself in the
creation of photojournalistic works in her hometown of Frankfurt. The choreographer and dance theoretician Rudolf von
Laban, who was a pioneer of “Labanotation” – a systematic
analysis and recording of human movement, founded the first
Laban dance school in Hamburg in 1923. The following alumni
opened 24 additional schools in Europe, including one in
Frankfurt whose dancers were documented by Ilse Bing in this
study of 1929. Bing continued to be concerned with the subject
of dance in Paris, where she made a variety of photographs of
the Parisian ballet and dance scene.

Beide Aufnahmen sind Klassiker aus Sanders epochemachendem Bildatlas Menschen des 20. Jahrhunderts, in dem er
in perfekt arrangierter Porträtmanier eine systematische
Typologie der Gesellschaft der Weimarer Republik dokumentierte. Der ‚Handlanger‘, mit einem für Sander fast
untypischen dramatischen Lichteinsatz, ist eines seiner
kraftvollsten Porträts; ‚Jungbauern‘ sicherlich sein meist
diskutiertes. Immer wieder wird behauptet, die drei adrett,
aus heutiger Sicht vermeintlich „bürgerlich“, gekleideten
Herren befänden sich auf dem Weg zum Tanz in die Stadt.
Was jedoch auf den ersten Blick wie eine Momentaufnahme
wirkt, entstand wie alle Porträts Sanders in akribisch
geplanter Inszenierung. So scheinen die Männer zwar inne
zu halten, zwischen Stehenbleiben und Weitergehen, doch
der Fotograf hinter der Kamera ist als Bildkompositeur
deutlich spürbar. Beide Aufnahmen wurden von Sander
bereits 1929 für sein erstes Buch Antlitz der Zeit ausgewählt,
in dem er wichtige Hauptmotive als eine Art Vorboten für
das große Lebenswerk versammelte. Die ungewöhnlich
großformatigen Abzüge wurden 1990 von Gerd Sander in
einer kleinen Edition in exzellenter Manier geprintet.
Both photographs are classic images belonging to Sander’s
epochal pictorial atlas People of the 20th Century, in which
he gathered hundreds of perfectly arranged portraits of
people from different professions and levels of society to
document a cross-section of Weimar Germany. The ‘Handlanger’ (‘Bricklayer’), with Sander’s almost atypical
dramatic use of light, is arguably one of his most powerful
portraits; ‘Jungbauern’ (Young farmers) is definitely one of
his most discussed. It is repeatedly claimed that the three
preppy, from today’s perspective, or supposedly “bourgeois” dressed gentlemen, were on their way to a dance in
the city. However, what at first glance looks like a snapshot,
like all of Sander’s portraits, was in fact staged with meticulously precision. Thus, although the men seem to pause
between stopping and moving on, the photographer behind
the camera is clearly noticeable through the image composition. Both photographs were published in Sander’s first
book Antlitz der Zeit (Face of Our Time) in 1929, in which he
gathered important motives as a harbinger of his great life’s
work. The unusually large-format photographs were
printed in an excellent manner by Gerd Sander in a small
edition in 1990.

Wanda Wulz, Tochter einer angesehenen Fotografenfamilie
aus Triest, führte ab 1928 ihr eigenes Atelier. Neben ihrer
Arbeit als Porträtfotografin widmete sie sich vor allem in den
frühen 1930er Jahren der experimentellen Fotografie (Fotomontagen, Fotocollagen, Doppelbelichtungen, Stillleben).
1931 begegnet sie mit Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, einem
Propagandisten des Futurismus, fortan ist sie aktives
Mitglied dieser Bewegung. Mit der Aufnahme ‚Io + Gatto‘
(Ich + Katze) schuf Wulz aus einer Fotografie ihres Katers
Pippo (bei der das Negativ der Katze seitenverkehrt verwendet wurde) und einem Selbstporträt, eine der bekanntesten Doppelbelichtungen der Kunstgeschichte. 1932 stellte
Wulz die Fotografie bei der ‚Mostra Fotografica Futurista‘
in Triest aus, wo sie als Höhepunkt der Ausstellung gefeiert
wurde. Fotografien von Wanda Wulz sind extrem selten,
da sie sich ab den späten 1930er Jahren der Porträtmalerei
zuwandte. In den letzten Jahrzehnten sind nur fünf ihrer
Arbeiten bei Auktionen angeboten worden; jüngstens
‚Futurist Breakfast‘ aus der Sammlung von Margaret Weston
(Sotheby’s New York 25.04.2007, Lot 36). Die vorliegende Fotografie, in den frühen 1950er Jahren geprintet, kommt aus
der Sammlung Alinari in Florenz. Nur zwei weitere Abzüge
von ‚Io + Gatto‘ sind bekannt. Einer befindet sich in der
Sammlung des Metropolitan Museum (Sotheby’s New York,
Italian Futurist Photographs Sale, November 9, 1982, Lot 72,
vorher in der Sammlung von Giovanni Lista), der andere im
Museo Alinari in Florenz.
Wanda Wulz, daughter of a respected family of photographers
from Trieste, led her own studio from 1928. In the early 1930s,
in addition to her work as a portrait photographer, she con
centrated mainly on experimental photography (photo
montages, photo collages, double exposures, still life). In 1931,
she met Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, a propagandist of
Futurism, and from then on she was an active member of this
movement. Her self-portrait ‘Io + Gatto’ (Me + Cat), where she
superimposes a photograph of her cat Pippo on top of an
image of herself, is one of the most famous double exposures
in art history. In 1932, Wulz presented the photograph in the
‘Mostra Fotografica Futurista’ in Trieste, where it was hailed
as the highlight of the exhibition. Photographs of Wanda
Wulz are extremely rare, as in the late 1930s she turned to
portrait painting. In recent decades only five of her works
have been offered at auction, and the most recent being
‘Futurist Breakfast’ from the collection of Margaret Weston
(Sotheby’s New York 25.04.2007, Lot 36). The present photograph, printed in the early 1950s, comes from the Alinari
collection in Florence and was published several times in
this context. Only two other copies of ‘Io + Gatto’ are known,
one is located in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum
(Sotheby’s New York Italian Futurist Photographs Sale,
November 9, 1982, Lot 72, formerly collection Giovanni Lista),
the other one in the Museo Alinari in Florence.

Zwischen 1935 und 1939 realisierte Abbott, gefördert vom Federal Art
Project, die großangelegte New York- Dokumentation Changing New York.
Die meisten Fotografien wurden mit einer Großformatkamera (8 × 10 in)
aufgenommen, so auch der vorliegende Vintage-Kontaktabzug. Auf der
Rückseite ist der Abzug akribisch von Abbott mit Titel, Ort, Negativnummer, Code und Datum versehen. Der Titel (‚Snuff Shop‘) bezieht sich
meist auf den Namen des abgebildeten Gebäudes, der Straße oder Sehenswürdigkeit, der Ort nennt die genaue Adresse. („113 Division Street,
Corner Orchard Street, Lower East Side New York“). Die Negative wurden
chronologisch durchnummeriert („# 277“). Der Code („III A“) bezieht sich
auf ein Themengebiet, dem die Fotografie zugeordnet wurde.
Between 1935 and 1939, Abbott worked on the extensive photographic
documentation of New York Changing New York. The project was funded by
the Federal Art Project. Most of the photographs from the series were
taken with a large format camera (8 × 10 inch), including the vintage
contact print on offer. On the reverse, Abbott meticulously marked this
print with the title, place, negative number, code and date. The title
(‘Snuff Shop’) usually refers to the name of the building, the street or the
landmark depicted in the image. The place always states the exact address
(“113 Division Street, Corner Orchard Street, Lower East Side New York”).
The negatives were numbered in chronological order (“# 277”). The code
(“III A”) refers to the subject area which the photograph was attributed to.

‚Paris and the Chairs, etc.‘ ist eine Fotografie mit ungewöhnlich früher Publikationsgeschichte in Franks
Karriere. Mehrmals, meistens als Teil einer Sequenz,
wurde sie in den frühen 1950er Jahren veröffentlicht.
Am 21 Mai 1951 war sie Teil von Franks Debut in Life
(‚Speaking of Pictures: A Photographer in Paris Finds
Chairs Everywhere‘). Frank wählte sie außerdem für sein
erstes wichtiges Buchprojekt Black White and Things aus,
welches erst später im Jahr 1994 realisiert wurde. Weiters
veröffentlichte sie Tom Maloney 1951 in U. S. Camera
Annual. Franks frühe atmosphärische Fotografien aus
Paris, die auf Besuchen entstanden, nachdem er bereits in
die USA übersiedelt war, präsentieren sich romantisch
und verklärt. Sie stehen im Gegensatz zu seinen späteren
ungeschminkten Ikonen Amerikas.
‘Paris and the Chairs, etc.’, is an image with significant
early publication history in Robert Frank’s career. It was
published several times, mostly as part of a sequence,
in the early 1950s. On May 21st 1951, it was included in
Frank’s debut in Life (‘Speaking of Pictures: A Photographer
in Paris Finds Chairs Everywhere’). Frank also chose the
image for inclusion in his first major book project Black
White and Things, that was completed at the end of 1994.
Furthermore, it was published in Tom Maloney’s U.S.
Camera Annual in 1951. Frank’s early photographs of Paris,
which he captured during visits after he had already
moved to the United States, are unique within his body of
work for their atmospheric and romantic qualities. These
characteristics are notably absent from the far grittier
work Frank would produce in America later in the decade.

Die Maquette des unpubliziert gebliebenen Foto-Buchs
‚Mon œil‘ (Mein Auge) besteht aus 41 originalen SilbergelatineAbzügen Robert Doisneaus. Die Aufnahmen entstanden
zwischen 1945 und 1970, viele davon sind typische Beispiele
für Doisneaus tragikomische Streiflichter aus dem Pariser
Alltag. Unter den Motiven befindet sich bekanntes, wie zum
Beispiel ‚Les chiens de la Chapelle, 1953‘ (# 25), ‚La cabine
téléphonique, Boulevard Raspail, 1958‘ (# 23), oder ‚Rue de
Rennes, 1944‘ (# 26), außerdem zwei interessante Porträts,
eines davon zeigt Doisneaus Concierge und engsten
Vertrauten Monsieur Barabé (# 30), das andere den Künstler
Tinguely (# 39). Begleitet wird die Maquette von einem
signierten Brief Doisneaus aus dem Jahr 1981. An seinen
Verleger und Buchdesigner Gerard Gagnepain schreibt er
leicht gekränkt und vergleicht sein Buch mit einem Kind,
das „nur vage erwünscht war vor seiner Geburt“.
The maquette of the unpublished photo-book ‘Mon oeil’
(my eye) consists of 41 original silver gelatin prints by Robert
Doisneau. The recordings were made between 1945–1970,
many of which are typical examples of Doisneau tragicomic
images from Parisian daily life. Among the motifs include
well known images, such as ‘Les chiens de la Chapelle, 1953’
(# 25), ‘La cabine téléphonique, Boulevard Raspail, 1958’ (# 23),
or ‘Rue de Rennes, 1944’ (# 26), and two interesting portraits,
one of which shows Doisneau’s concierge and closest con
fidant, Monsieur Barabe (# 30), the other is of the artist
Tinguely (# 39). A signed letter by Doisneau from the year
1981 accompanies the maquette. Doisneau writes to his
publisher and book designer Gerard Gagnepain, explaining
that he is easily offended and compares his book with a child
that was “only vaguely desired before his birth”.

Im Morgengrauen des 6. Juni 1944 wurde Capa mit der
ersten Welle alliierter Truppen am Omaha Beach (Deckname für einen der Landungspunkte auf der NormandieKüste) ausgeschifft. Seine bekanntesten Fotografien
entstanden in den darauffolgenden Stunden. Im Londoner
Büro von Life machte ein Assistent einen fatalen Fehler beim
Trocknen der Filme, wodurch die Fotografien unscharf
wurden. Nur elf (oft als „The Magnificent Eleven“
bezeichnet) der ursprünglich 106 Aufnahmen konnten
gerettet werden; zehn davon veröffentlichte Life am 19. Juni
1944. Die Unschärfe, im Magazin als „slightly out of focus“
bezeichnet, wurde hier jedoch mit der Aufregung des Fotografen erklärt. Capa nannte drei Jahre später in Anspielung
darauf seine Memoiren ‚Slightly out of focus‘.

In the gray of dawn on the 6th of June 1944 Capa disembarked together with the first wave of allied troops at
Omaha Beach (code name for one of the landing zones at
the Normandy coast). Some of Capa’s best known photographs were taken in the subsequent hours. Unfortunately
an assistant at the London office of Life made a mistake
while drying the negatives which turned the photographs
blurry. Only eleven (often referred to as “The Magnificent
Eleven”) of the original 106 exposures could be saved; ten of
which were published by Life on the 19th of June 1944. The
blurring of the image was noted as “slightly out of focus“,
which the magazine explained reflected the excitement of
the photographer. Capa made a reference to this three years
later by calling his memoirs ‘Slightly out of focus’.

Inge Morath und Henri Cartier-Bresson kannten sich
zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahme seit rund einem Jahrzehnt. Sie hatte 1949 als Redakteurin bei Magnum seine
Kontaktbögen studiert und war vor ihrer Aufnahme
als Vollmitglied 1955 seine Assistentin. Dieses Porträt
überzeugt durch den ausgewogenen Bildaufbau, der
das Augenmerk ganz auf den Dargestellten lenkt:
Cartier-Bresson im Dreiteiler, mit Kissen in grafischem
Muster neben sich – eine Aufgeräumtheit, die man
auch mit den Qualitäten seiner eigenen fotografischen
Arbeit verbindet. Im Gesichtsausdruck spiegelt sich das
Verhältnis von Fotografin und Modell: ein Mentor, der
auf seine emanzipierte Schülerin blickt.
Inge Morath and Henri Cartier-Bresson knew each
other about a decade at the time this photograph
was taken. While working as an editor at Magnum in
1949, Morath had studied his contact sheets and was
his assistant before her admission as a full member
in 1955. This portrait draws the eyes of the viewer
toward the sitter, through its balanced image structure:
Cartier-Bresson in three-piece, with graphic patterned
cushions next to him – a neatness which is also associated with the qualities of his own photographic work.
The expression reflects the relationship between
photographer and model: A mentor, who looks at his
emancipated student.

Glossar der Termini
Glossary of Terms
Zu - / Beschreibung der Objekte
Name of Artist / Description
Für jedes Los wird der Fotograf in fett gedruckten Lettern
genannt. Auf Zuschreibungen, die Transkription von
Beschriftungen, Stempel und Datierung wurde größt
mögliche Sorgfalt verwandt. Für die Inhalte der deskriptiven
Bildbeschreibungen übernimmt der Veranstalter / Herausgeber keine Verantwortung.
For each lot the name of the photographer appears in
bold type heading. While every reasonable effort was
made to provide correct attributions, accurate tran
scriptions of inscriptions, stamps or dates, WestLicht
does not assume the responsibility for the contents of
descriptive texts.
Titel
Titles
Die durch Publikationen und andere Quellen (wie eigenhändige Beschriftung der Fotografen) gesicherten
Originaltitel der Werke werden in Anführungszeichen
angegeben; in den übrigen Fällen handelt es sich um
beschreibende Titel.
Generally accepted titles for photographs have been put
in quotation marks; in other cases, descriptive titles have
been used.
Datierung der Prints
Als Vintage-Print wird ein Abzug bezeichnet, der in un
mittelbarer zeitlicher Nähe zur Aufnahme bzw. Produktion
des Negatives vom Fotografen selbst oder einer Person
seines Vertrauens angefertigt wurde. Exakte Datumsangaben
für die Positive sind nur in den seltensten Fällen bekannt.
Die Unterscheidung zwischen einem Vintage-Print und
einem später produzierten Abzug wird in Relation zur
Datierung des Negatives ausgedrückt, beispielsweise bei
einem Silbergelatineprint: 1920, Vintage silver print oder
1920, Gelatin silver print, printed later. Eine möglichst
präzise Datierung, zumindest das Jahr oder Jahrzehnt der
Entstehung wird für jedes Lot angegeben. Die Angaben
basieren auf dem Wissen des WestLicht-Expertenteams
zur Geschichte der jeweiligen Fotografie, ihrer Provenienz
und visueller Begutachtung. Für die Angaben kann keine
Gewähr übernommen werden.
MaSSangaben
Bei den Maßangaben folgen die Maße der Bildbreite
jenen der Bildhöhe. Sofern nicht anders angegeben,
beziehen sich diese Maße auf das tatsächliche Bildformat
ohne jegliche Ränder. Einige Fotografien werden im
Katalog ohne Rand abgebildet.
Prints
A vintage print is one made at roughly the same time as
the negative by the photographer himself or by a person
or procedure satisfactory to the photographer. Specific
dates of positive prints are rarely known. This distinction
between a vintage print and a print done considerably
later would be expressed with the date referring to the
production of the negative. In case of a gelatin silver print:
1920, Vintage silver print or 1920, Gelatin silver print,
printed later.The approximate date, year, or decade of
a positive print is given when possible, based on the
WestLicht’s knowledge of the history of the photograph,
its provenance, and our visual assessment of the photo
graph’s physical characteristics. We don’t guarantee the
printing date of the photograph.
Measurements
Measurements are given height preceding width. Unless
otherwise indicated dimensions given are those of the actual
image size (excluding any margins). Some photographs
appear in the catalogue without margins illustrated.
Framing and matting
Photographs described as framed are sold in the frames
in which they have been offered. WestLicht does not take
responsibility for the appearance of the frames or mats,
nor for their conformity to proper standards of conservation.
R ahmung und Passepartouts
Die als gerahmt oder montiert angeführten Fotografien
werden als solche angeboten und verkauft. WestLicht
übernimmt keine Verantwortung für den Zustand der
mitgelieferten Passepartouts bzw. Untersatzkartons und
Rahmen, auch in Hinblick auf konservatorische Standards.
Zustand
Der Zustand der angebotenen Objekte wird im Allgemeinen
nicht im Katalog erfasst. Interessenten und Bieter werden
ersucht, den Zustand der Lots anlässlich der öffentlichen
Vorbesichtigung zu prüfen oder einen detaillierten
Zustandsbericht anzufordern: anna.zimm@westlicht.com

Condition
The general practise is not to indicate condition or
defects. Prospective bidders are urged to inspect lots a
t
our public viewing or ask for a condition report at our
auction department. For condition reports please contact:

Versteigerungsbedingungen
für Bieter bei der WestLicht Foto-Auktion (Peter Coeln GmbH)
Conditions of Sale
1. Mit der Abgabe eines schriftlichen oder telefonischen Kaufauftrages, eines
Online-Gebots oder durch die persönliche Teilnahme als Saalbieter erkennt
jeder Bieter bei der Auktion die folgenden Versteigerungsbedingungen aus
drücklich an. Die Versteigerungsbedingungen gelten sinngemäß auch für den
Nachverkauf. Bei Beanspruchungen aufgrund fehlerhafter Übersetzung ist der
deutsche Text der Versteigerungsbedingungen im gedruckten Katalog gültig.
Gebote und persönliche Daten der Bieter und Einbringer werden von
WestLicht-Auction streng vertraulich behandelt und keiner dritten Person
weitergegeben.
1. By submitting an absentee or telephone bid, making an online bid offer or
by personal participation in an action each and every bidder agrees to abide
by the following conditions of sale. These conditions also apply to subsequent
sales. Where there is a conflict of meaning due to errors of translation, the
German text, as printed in the auction catalogue, is binding. Commission bids
and personal information of those submitting lots for sale and bidders will
be dealt with by WestLicht Auctions in the strictest confidence and will not
be passed on to third parties.
2. Die Versteigerung ist öffentlich und freiwillig und wird nach den Bestimmun
gen der §§ 284 a ff der Gewerbeordnung i.d.F. GRNov 1997 sowie nach den
vorliegenden Versteigerungsbedingungen durchgeführt. Die Versteigerung
erfolgt in fremdem Namen sowie für fremde Rechnung. Erfüllungsort und
Gerichtsstand ist Wien. Auch im Verhältnis zu ausländischen Bietern ist
österreichisches Recht maßgeblich.
3. Die Schätzung und fachliche Bestimmung der Objekte erfolgt durch
Experten der WestLicht Foto-Auktion, die bemüht sind den Zustand
der Lose im Katalog so adäquat wie möglich zu beschreiben. Etwaige Fehler
oder Mängel der Versteigerungsgegenstände werden üblicherweise
ausgewiesen und alle Lose der international üblichen Form ents prechend
bewertet. WestLicht weist jedoch ausdrücklich darauf hin, dass die
Gegenstände als Sammlerstücke angeboten werden und d
er Verkauf daher
ohne Gewähr und Haftung für offene und versteckte Mängel erfolgt. Irrtumsund Druckfehlerberichtigungen bleiben vorbehalten. Ebenso behält sich
WestLicht-Auction das Recht vor, Ber ichtigungen der Beschreibung bis zur
Versteigerung vorzunehmen. Eine Rücknahme ersteigerter Artikel ist prinzipiell
ausgeschlossen (siehe Punkt 12).
4. Die Besichtigung der zur Versteigerung vorgesehenen Objekte ist innerhalb
des im Katalog angeführten Zeitraumes möglich. Ist einem Bieter die Besich
tigung vor Ort jedoch nicht möglich, geben wir auf Anfrage gerne eine
präzisere Beschreibung des technischen und optischen Zustandes. Diese
Auskünfte erteilen wir sowohl telefonisch, als auch schriftlich oder per E-Mail –
zusätzlich Fotos können wir jedoch nur per E-Mail zusenden. Bei der Besich
tigung und während der Ver steigerung ist größte Vorsicht zu empfehlen, da
jeder Besucher für den von ihm verursachten Schaden in vollem Umfang haftet.
5. Vor Versteigerungsbeginn können schriftlich (Brief, Fax, E-Mail oder OnlineGebote über unsere Homepage) abgegeben werden. Schriftliche Kaufaufträge
müssen dem Versteigerer bis spätestens 24 Stunden vor Beginn der Vers tei
gerung in gut leserlicher Form vorliegen. Um berücksichtigt zu werden, müssen
sie außerdem die genaue Anschrift des Auftraggebers, sowie das Höchstgebot
in EURO enthalten. Die darin genannten Preise gelten als Höchstpreise für den
Zuschlag, das Aufgeld wird im Falle des Zuschlages zusätzlich in Rechnung
gestellt. Wir führen schriftliche Gebote gewissenhaft aus, wobei das schriftliche
Höchstgebot nur dann ausgeschöpft wird, wenn andere schriftliche oder
mündliche Gebote im Saal dies im Interesse des Bieters notwendig machen.
Telefonische Gebote sind erst ab einem jeweiligen Loswert von EUR 500
möglich. Auch für diese Art des Bietens muss ein Auftrag spätestens 24 Stunden
vor der Auktion schriftlich beim Versteigerer vorliegen. Telefonbieter werden vor
Aufruf der gewünschten Lose von WestLicht-Auction angerufen. Eine Garantie
für das Zustandekommen der Telefonverbindung kann jedoch nicht gegeben
werden. Nachdem sie sich mit einem Ausweis oder einer Kreditkarte legitimiert
haben, erhalten Saalbieter vor Beginn der Auktion eine Bieternummer.
6. Der Kaufpreis besteht aus dem Zuschlagpreis (= Hammerpreis) zuzüglich
Aufgeld. Umlagen sowie die gesetzliche Mehrwertsteuer können
hinzukommen.
a) Regelbesteuerung: Lose, deren Startpreis im Katalog mit * gekennzeichnet
sind, unterliegen der Regelbesteuerung. Das Aufgeld beträgt in diesem Fall
20 %. Bei Lieferung innerhalb der EU (Europäische Union) wird dem Zuschlagpreis
und dem Aufgeld die gesetzliche Mehrwertsteuer von 10 % hinzugerechnet.
b) Differenzbesteuerung: Ohne gesonderte Kennzeichnung unterliegt der
Kaufpreis bei Lieferung innerhalb der EU (Europäische Union) der
Differenzbesteuerung (§ 24 UStG 1994). Auf den Zuschlagpreis wird ein Aufgeld
von 24% berechnet, in dem die Umsatzsteuer enthalten ist. Diese wird nicht
gesondert ausgewiesen.
c) Käufern, die zum Vorsteuerabzug berechtigt sind, kann auf Wunsch die
Rechnung nach der Regelbesteuerung ausgestellt werden. Der Wunsch ist bei
der Beantragung der Bieternummer anzugeben.
d) Keine Mehrwertsteuer wird berechnet, wenn die Lose in Staaten außerhalb
der EU (Europäische Union) oder in Staaten innerhalb der EU an Unternehmer
geliefert werden sollen, wenn diese ihre Umsatzsteuer-Identifikationsnummer
angegeben haben. Das Aufgeld beträgt in diesen Fällen 20%.

for bidders at WestLicht Photo Auctions (Peter Coeln GmbH)
2. The auction is public and voluntary and will be conducted in accordance with
the regulations set forth in paragraph 288a ff of the Trade Regulations of 1997
and also in accordance with these conditions of sale. The auction will be con
ducted in our client’s name and for our client’s account. Place of jurisdiction is
Vienna. Austrian law is also binding on all foreign bidders.
3. The valuation and expert description of objects will be carried out by the
experts of WestLicht Auctions who will take all reasonable care to describe the
condition of the lots in the catalogue as accurately as possible. Possible flaws
or defects in the objects on offer will normally be noted and the objects will be
evaluated according to normal international conventions. However WestLicht
Auctions explicitly draws your attention to the fact that the objects are offered
as collector’s items and that the sale of them gives rise to neither warranty nor
responsibility for any visible or invisible defects whatsoever. All errors in the
catalogue are excepted. WestLicht Auctions also reserves the right to amend
any description up to the time of auction. Auctioned items cannot be returned
(see also paragraph 12).
4. Viewing of the objects intended for the auction is possible within the period
stipulated in the catalogue. If it is not possible for a bidder to view an object in
person, we will be happy to forward them a more detailed description of the
technical and optical condition. This information may be given by telephone, in
writing, or by e-mail. Additional photos can only be sent by e-mail. During both
viewing and the auction visitors and bidders should exercise the greatest of
care since they will be responsible for any damage caused in full.
5. Written bids may be submitted prior to the start of the auction (by letter, fax,
e-mail or an online offer through our homepage). Written purchase orders must
reach the auctioneer at least 24 hours before the start of the auction and must
be clearly legible. In order to be taken into account they must also contain the
client’s exact address as well as their highest bid in EURO. The price specified
therein will be regarded as the highest hammer price. In the case of a
successful bid, all additional charges will be added to the bill. We carry out
written bids scrupulously, the highest bid designated therein only being made
use of when other offers (written or verbal in the auction rooms) make it
necessary to do so in the interest of the bidder. Telephone bids are only
possible on lots worth more than EUR 500 exclusive of charges. In the case of
telephone bids too, it is necessary that the intention to bid by phone be
deposited in writing with the auctioneer at least 24 hours prior to the auction.
Telephone bidders will then be called by WestLicht Auctions before bidding
starts on the relevant lots. However, there can be no guarantee that a
telephone connection can, in fact, be made. After having been legitimated by
means of an identification document or credit card, auction-room bidders will
be given a bidder number before the auction starts.
6. The total purchase price consists oft the hammer price, the buyer’s premium
and applicable VAT or amount in lieu of VAT at applicable rate.
a) Buyers Premium
The buyer’s premium is 20 % of the hammer price.
b) Regular Scheme: Where there ist the * symbol next to the start price,
VAT will be charged to the buyer, (currently at a rate of 10 % for photography
and books) on both the hammer price and the buyer’s premium.
c) Margin Scheme: Where there is no VAT symbol WestLicht Photographica
Auction is able to use the Margin Scheme and must bear VAT on the buyer’s
premium and hence will charge an amount in lieu of VAT (24 %). This amount will
form part of the buyer’s on our invoice and will not be separately identified.
d) For property with VAT symbol VAT registered buyers from European Union
(EU) contries may have the VAT refunded if they provide us with their VAT
identification number when registering for bidding.
e) Exports to non EU coutries will be exempt from VAT for property with VAT
Symbol, and so will be exports made by companies from other EU member
states if they state their VAT identification number.
Buyers taking property to a non EU country may have the VAT refunded if they
provide evidence that the property has been removed to another country
outside the EU in the form of a copy of customs export documention stamped
by customs officers.
f ) For lots won using a live bidding services the buyer’s premium will be 23 %.
Nimmt ein Käufer mit Wohnsitz außerhalb der EU die ersteigerten Lose selbst
in Staaten außerhalb der EU mit, wird ihm im Fall der Regelbesteuerung die
Mehrwertsteuer erstattet, sobald er den österreichischen zollamtlichen Aus
fuhrnachweis vorlegt. Im Ausland anfallende Einfuhrumsatzsteuer und Zölle
trägt der Käufer.
e) Bei Ersteigerung eines Loses über eine Live-Bieter Plattform beträgt das
Aufgeld 23 %.
f) Während oder unmittelbar nach der Auktion ausgestellte Rechnungen
bedürfen der Nachprüfung; Irrtümer sind vorbehalten.
7. Die Versteigerung erfolgt in der Reihenfolge der Katalognummer ierung.
Maßgeblich ist der Katalogtext der gedruckten deutschen Ausgabe des
Auktionskatalogs. Jedoch ist der Auktionator berechtigt, Katalognummern in
der Versteigerung zusammen zu fassen, zu trennen, heraus zu nehmen oder die
Reihenfolge zu verändern. Er kann Angebote ablehnen und einen bereits
erteilten Zuschlag aufheben, um den betreffenden Gegenstand weiter zu
steigern.
8. Gesteigert wird um ca. 10 % des Ausrufpreises. Der Ausrufpreis ist in der
Regel der im Katalog angeführte Startpreis, sofern nicht mehrere höhere
schriftliche Gebote vorliegen. In diesem Fall ruft der Auktionator zu Gunsten
des höchsten Bieters mit dem Betrag aus, der 10 % über dem schriftlichen
Gebot des zweithöchsten Bieters liegt. Liegen mehrere gleiche schriftliche
Höchstgebote vor, so wird zu Gunsten des zuerst eingelangten Gebotes
entschieden. Das zugeschlagene Gebot ist der Nettokaufpreis.
9. Das Eigentum der ersteigerten Ware geht erst nach vollständiger Bezahlung
auf den Käufer über. Im Falle des Zuschlages verpflichtet sich der Ersteher zur
Abnahme und Zahlung des von ihm ersteigerten Loses. Eine Rücknahme ver
steigerter Gegenstände seitens des Versteigerers ist ausgeschlossen. Mit dem
Zuschlag geht die gesamte Haftung für den Versteigerungsgegenstand sofort
auf den Ersteher über. Das ersteigerte Los wird dem Ersteher jedoch erst nach
vollständiger Bezahlung des Zuschlagpreises und des Aufgeldes, sowie an
fallender Steuern und Gebühren ausgehändigt. Wird vereinbart, den Gegen
stand dennoch vor vollständiger Bezahlung auszuliefern, verbleibt der ver
steigerte Gegenstand bis zum vollständigen Forderungsausgleich Eigentum
des Einlieferers.
10. Sofern keine anderen Vereinbarungen getroffen wurden, haben Saalbieter
das ersteigerte Gut nach Beendigung der Auktion abzuholen und zu bezahlen.
Bei Bezahlung durch Überweisung ist der Rechnungsbetrag sofort und
inklusive aller Bankspesen fällig. Die Rechnungen der schriftlich oder
telefonisch ersteigerten Gegenstände werden nach Beendigung der Auktion
an den jeweiligen Höchstbieter verschickt. Diese sind innerhalb von 8 Tagen
nach Erhalt an den Versteigerer o
hne Abzug zu bezahlen. Bei Zahlungsverzug
werden Verzugszinsen in Höhe von 5 % über dem jeweiligen Basiszinssatz der
Österreichischen Nationalbank verrechnet. Ebenso ist die Zahlung per
Nachnahme, Postauftrag oder Bankscheck möglich – bei all diesen Zahlungs
arten übernimmt der Ersteher allfällige Spesen. Kosten für Verpackung, T
rans
port und Transportversicherung sind nicht inkludiert und werden extra zur
Verrechnung gebracht. Wir weisen jedoch darauf hin, dass wir ausschließlich
die Selbstkosten verrechnen und aufgrund unserer Vereinbarung mit
Transportfirmen für den Käufer günstige Transport- und Versicherungstarife
anbieten können. Jede Lagerung und Verpackung erfolgt jedoch grundsätzlich
auf Gefahr des Käufers.
11. Bei Annahmeverweigerung oder Zahlungsverzug haftet der Ersteher für alle
daraus entstehenden Schäden und Folgekosten. Der Versteigerer kann in
diesen Fällen entweder Erfüllung des Kaufvertrages oder Schadenersatz
wegen Nichterfüllung des Kaufvertrages verlangen. Das Versteigerungsgut
kann auf Kosten des Erstehers nochmals versteigert werden. In diesem Fall
haftet der Ersteher für den Minderpreis und hat auf einen gegebenenfalls
erzielten Mehrerlös keinen Anspruch.
7. The lots will be auctioned in numerical order as listed in the catalogue.
The German text of the auction catalogue is binding. The auctioneer reserves
the right to group numbered lots together during the auction, to separate
them, to remove or to change the order as he sees fit. He may refuse an offer
and rescind an accepted bid in order to continue bidding.
8. Bids will be in increments of approx. 10 % of the starting price. As a rule the
start price is the one to be found in the catalogue unless there have been
higher, written bids. In this case the auctioneer will call a bid favoring the
highest bidder. This will be approx. 10 % higher than the written offer made by
the second highest bidder. Should there be more than one written, highest bid,
the lot will be awarded to the first to arrive. The hammer price is the net
purchase price.
9. Ownership of the goods only passes to the buyer after payment in full has
been made. When a lot is hammered down, the acquirer is obligated to accept
and pay for the lot for which he bid. In no circumstances will the auctioneer
accept the return of any lots. Once the hammer has fallen all risk with regard to
the article is transferred to the acquirer. However, the lot will only be delivered
to the acquirer after full payment of the hammer price including all taxes, fees
and charges due. Should agreement be reached to deliver the item before full
payment has been made, ownership of the article in question remains vested in
the supplier until payment has been made in full.
10. In the absence of an agreement to the contrary, at the end of the auction
bidders in the auction rooms must collect and pay for the lots they have
acquired. Where payment is to be made by bank transfer, the total purchase
price is due immediately together with any bank charges. Invoices for the items
acquired either in writing or by telephone will be sent to the highest bidder
immediately after the end of the auction. These must be paid within 8 days of
receipt, in full and without deduction. Where payment is delayed interest will
be due at a rate 5 % above the prevailing rate of the Austrian National Bank.
Payment may also be made by cash on delivery, money or postal order or
banker’s check. The acquirer accepts responsibility for all expenses involved in
these methods of payment. Costs relating to packing, transport and transport
insurance are not included and will be separately detailed on invoices. We
would also like to bring to your attention that we only invoice for packaging at
cost price and that because of agreements reached with transport companies
we can offer favorable transport and insurance rates. Nevertheless, storage
and packaging is at the buyer’s own risk.
11. In the case of refusal to accept delivery or late payment, the buyer is liable
for all damages and costs arising there from. In either of these cases the
auctioneer may require that either the contract be fulfilled or damages
resulting from non-fulfilment be paid. The lots may then be auctioned again at
the expense of the buyer. In this case the buyer is liable for the reserve price
and has no claim on any additional revenue made.
12. Auctioned items cannot be returned. However, any case of obvious mis
representation (except defects as described in paragraph 3) must be reported
immediately after the auction verbally or in writing not more than 14 days
thereafter. If the complaint is accepted as valid, the buyer has a right to the
re-payment of the purchase price and charges upon simultaneous return of
the auctioned object. No other claims will be entertained.
13. After completion of the auction we are entitled to sell any non-auctioned
items subject to the normal conditions of business in the name of, and for the
account of, the supplier.
12. Versteigerte Objekte werden prinzipiell nicht zurück genommen. Handelt
es sich jedoch um eine offensichtliche Fehlbeschreibungen, muss diese gleich
nach der Auktion mündlich oder spätestens nach 14 Tagen schriftlich reklamiert
werden. Wird die Reklamation als gültig anerkannt, hat der Ersteher bei
