ARTHOUSE HEJTMÁNEK

Benes Knüpfer established himself as a painter of late Romanticism, popular for his symbolist works with motifs of the sea and sea fairies. Less well known is his realistic portrait work, which is an important element of genesis and sea scenes. While still a student, he began to focus on motifs from Prague life and portraiture. Portraits of women and men are among the evocative examples of his painterly qualities, which he subsequently applied in his freelance work in Italy, where he settled permanently. With a brisk, masterful hand, he was able to render both intimate portraits and monumental marinas. Although his paintings were appreciated in the circles of wealthy merchants, he struggled with the wider acceptance of his paintings in the milieu of Czech modernism. He ended his life tragically.

The hall auction on the Livebid platform offers the experience of a hall auction without having to physically participate in it. 
Thanks to the live broadcast, you can watch and listen to the auctioneer in the comfort of your own home, who is in charge of the pace of the auction and decides when the auction of a particular item closes and who the winner is. 
Whether you bid from home or in the hall, you have the same conditions and chances of winning. 
However, online bidding offers much more convenience and flexibility.

Hall auction

Limiting is a simple way for you to participate in an auction without having to be online at the time of the auction. 
Limiting takes place the entire time the auction catalog is issued until the start of the auction. 
If you want to limit, just determine in advance the maximum amount you are willing to offer for the item. 
If your bid is not outbid by another bidder, you win the item. 
Only you and the auction house can see this amount. 
If the auction price exceeds your limit and you are connected online, you have the option to raise your bid and win the item.

After the end of the limitation, the online auction starts, during which the items are auctioned one by one. 
Sufficient time is set for each of them to submit a bid, and in the case of a new bid, the time is automatically extended. 
The winner of the item is the bidder whose bid remains the highest until the time for bidding on the item expires. 
After the end of the auction, the respective auction house will send you all the necessary information about the method of payment and the possibilities of shipping/picking up the work.

4.1. The purchase price of a Work is the price stated for the Work on the Portal at the moment the order is completed.

8.2. The Buyer's identity and contact details are not disclosed to the Gallery, except to the extent necessary for performance of the purchase contract or required by law. For personal pickup, the Gallery verifies the Buyer's identity solely for the purpose of handing over the Work under Art. 5.2; the Gallery does not retain the Buyer's data or use it for other purposes.

8.3. Loan of a Work for exhibition: the author or Gallery may in the future request a loan of an already sold Work for exhibition/curatorial purposes. Providing the loan is a voluntary decision of the Buyer and is not a condition of purchase or part of the purchase contract.

PARTICIPATION IN AUCTION AND PURCHASE</h2><ol><li>The conditions of participation in the auction and the subsequent purchase of goods or services are regulated by these GTC, the relevant Auction Notice and the Seller's terms and conditions (Auction Rules), which the Seller shall attach to the Auction Notice, whereby the Auction Notice shall prevail over the Seller's terms and conditions and the Seller's terms and conditions shall prevail over these GTC.</li><li>The provisions of the legal regulations governing public auctions pursuant to Act No. 26/2000 Coll., on Public Auctions, as amended, shall not apply to the auction, as the Bidder who made the highest offer (highest bid) does not become the owner of the object of the auction on the date on which the Operator closes the bidding, but on the date of conclusion of the purchase contract, or other agreement with the Seller, or at the time set for the transfer of ownership according to generally binding legal regulations.</li><li>Before making a request to participate in the auction and/or purchase, the User is obliged to familiarize themself with the relevant Auction Notice and the terms and conditions (Auction Rules) of the Seller. By confirming participation in the auction, the User agrees to the Auction Notice and the terms and conditions (Auction Rules) of the Seller, and undertakes to comply with these conditions.</li><li>For the avoidance of doubt, the Operator is not the Seller of the electronic auctions posted on the portal www.Livebid.cz, but the administrator of the Livebid auction system, as the Operator only offers the Seller a technical auction solution.</li><li>The purchase offer and the auction are published according to the information provided by the Seller on the basis of the purchase offer or the public Auction Notion issued by the Seller. The Operator is not responsible for the accuracy of the data contained on the card of the offered goods or services or on the auction card, the completion of which was carried out by the Seller themself. Neither are they responsible for the content of the documents delivered by the Seller for publication.</li><li>The Seller determines the time of the start of the auction. This information will be published on the card of the offered goods or services or on the auction card.</li><li>The sale or auction will be started manually or automatically at the designated time. Bidders may make their submissions from the time it is opened.</li><li>All timing of the sale or auction is abided by the time of the server running the www.Livebid.cz portal, which is governed by Central European Time - GMT+1, taking into account Standard Time (CET) and Summer Time (CEST).</li><li>Participation in the sale and auction is only possible for Bidders with full registration. Full registration means Livebid Identity.</li><li>In the event that a deposit is required to participate in the auction, the deposit must be made in the manner specified by the Seller in the Auction Notice. The method of deposit will also be published on the auction card.</li><li>A Bidder intending to make a bid in a given auction must make a bid in an amount that exceeds the last highest bid made. This does not apply in the case of the first bid, which may be made in the amount of the lowest bid. In the event of more than one bid being made in the same amount, the bid made first shall prevail. Bidders are bound by their submissions and cannot withdraw them. The Bidder who has made the highest bid shall be entitled to purchase the auction lot. The Bidder with the highest bid, i.e., the Buyer, will be designated by the Operator as the winner of the auction.</li><li>Until the auction commences, the Bidders are entitled to enter the maximum amount they are willing to bid for the goods and services offered in the auction, the so-called limitation, so that the Livebid system or, in the case of an indoor sale, the Bidder's representatives, make successive submissions on behalf of the Bidder and up to the amount of the Bidder's limitation. In such case, the Bidder acknowledges that they are bound by the Bid up to the limit and are obliged to enter into a purchase agreement with the Seller as the Buyer.</li><li>The Bidder wishing to purchase the offered goods or services in a sale (not an auction) must make a submission in the amount of the asking price indicated in the card of the offered goods or services. In the case of a sale, the Buyer shall be the first Bidder to make a submission in the required amount and who is designated as the Buyer by the Operator. Neither the moment the Bidder makes a submission, nor the announcement of the Bidder as the winner of the sale, constitutes a contract of sale, but an opportunity to enter into a contract of sale with the Seller. The Bidder acknowledges that the Operator is only facilitating the possibility of concluding a purchase contract with the Seller.</li><li>Upon completion of the sale and auction, the Operator will forward the personal and contact details of the Buyer to the Seller for the purpose of concluding a purchase contract or other contractual arrangement regarding the sale, including payment details and handing over the object of the sale and auction. The Operator shall not be liable for any actions related to the process that follows the completion of the sale and auction, i.e., the conclusion or not of the purchase contract or other contractual arrangement between the Buyer and the Seller.</li><li>By registering on the portal www.Livebid.cz, the User acknowledges that their user account may be suspended, including additional exclusion from the auction, if there is a violation of the Auction Notice, violation, non-compliance or failure to provide the necessary cooperation in accordance with generally binding legal regulations or other violation of the general rules and ethics of participation in auctions according to individual evaluation by the Operator. Suspension of a user account may consist in its complete blocking and cancellation of the existing limits, or in blocking access to participate only in specific auctions.</li></ol><h2>V. USER IDENTIFICATION</h2><ol><li>The Operator provides the Seller with the identification of Users interested in becoming Bidders participating in sales and auctions, in order to verify the identity of Users. Identification is carried out on the basis of three successive steps, namely by verifying the User's e-mail address, the User's telephone number and the User's identity.</li><li>The User is entitled to verify the User's identity in one of the following ways:</li><li>a) via Livebid identity. By using the Livebid identity, the User agrees to the terms of the GetID publicly available at this link: <a target=_BLANK href=https://getid.com/privacy-policy/ >https://getid.com/privacy-policy/</a>.</li><li>b) by uploading the User's identity document, which will then be evaluated by the Operator;</li><li>c) on the basis of a mediated identification pursuant to Section 10 of Act 253/2008 Coll., on Selected Measures against Legitimisation of Proceeds of Crime and Financing of Terrorism by a notary or a public contact point (CzechPoint - usually available at the office, post office or notary), by sending a public document on the result of the mediated identification to the Operator's data box hb22jhz. The Operator notes that the issuance of the public document is subject to a fee, the costs in this case being borne by the User.</li><li>d) by personal verification of identity by simultaneous presentation of two identity documents in front of an employee of the Operator, by agreement between the Operator and the User, or at events organised by the Operator, at which the Operator allows and announces in advance that it will be possible to verify the identity of the User. By using this identity verification option, the User agrees to the taking of a copy of the identity document by an employee of the Operator.</li><li>Verification of the User's e-mail address is carried out by sending an e-mail containing a link to verify the e-mail address.</li><li>Verification of the User's phone number is carried out by sending a text message with a code for phone number verification.</li><li>Verification of the User's identity is carried out in the following scope: identification and verification of identity by means of an identity document, or comparison of likeness, in particular by means of a photograph taken, the so-called selfie, within the framework of Livebid identity by taking an interactive video-selfie.</li><li>By participating in the sale or auction, the Bidder acknowledges that the Seller is entitled to identify and check the Bidder including cases of identification and control under the AML Act, always in cases where the Seller is in the position of an obliged person under the AML Act. Identification under the AML Act shall always include a determination of the source of funds. Refusal to identify and check the Buyer, as well as the fact that the Buyer is unable to prove that the funds do not originate from criminal activity, is a reason for which the Operator is entitled to subsequently exclude the Buyer from the sale and auction.</li></ol><h2>VI. FORCE MAJEURE</h2><ol><li>The Operator shall not be liable for failure to perform their obligations during the period of force majeure to the extent that the Operator could not be required to prevent the failure to perform their obligations due to force majeure.</li><li>Any event independent of the Operator's will that prevents the performance of their obligations and which could not have been foreseen is considered force majeure under these GTC. In particular, a natural disaster, fire, explosion, severe windstorm, earthquake, flood, war, strike or other events beyond the Operator's control shall be considered force majeure for the purposes of these GTC.</li><li>Force Majeure shall also include the unavailability and non-functionality of Internet connections not caused by the Operator or other critical parts of the infrastructure necessary for the provision of the service by the Operator.</li><li>For the duration of the force majeure, auctions that have already started shall be suspended until the consequences of the force majeure are removed.</li></ol><h2>VII. FINAL PROVISIONS</h2><ol><li>If any provision of the GTC is or becomes invalid or ineffective, the invalid provision shall be replaced by a provision whose meaning is as close as possible to the invalid provision. The invalidity or ineffectiveness of one provision shall not affect the validity of the other provisions.</li><li>The contracts, the GTC and the legal relations arising from them, as well as any disputes arising from these legal relations, shall be governed by Czech law.</li><li>The Operator is entitled to change these GTC at any time by way of notification on the portal www.Livebid.cz. The new GTC shall become effective on the date of their publication on the portal, unless the Operator sets a later date. The current version of the GTC will apply to auctions already in progress.</li><li>These GTC shall come into force and effect on 27. 6. 2022</li></ol>
