In June last year Bonhams in Sidney held the auction Sherman | Prints & Multiples, which included the work The Red Bridge, 1999 by Louise Forthun. The »bidding war« ended at AUD 861.00 (€ 822.43), 44% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Louise Forthun have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Roma I in August 2004 with an auction result of AUD 8,365.00 (€ 4,855.04).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 44 % übertroffen

Im Juni letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in Sidney die Auktion Sherman | Prints & Multiples durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Red Bridge, 1999 von Louise Forthun zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von AUD 861,00 (€ 822,43) und damit 44% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Louise Forthun auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Roma I im August 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 8.365,00 (€ 4.855,04).
