Upper estimate price exceeded by 32 %.

In November 2002 Christies in Melbourne held the auction AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS, which included the work Formenschonheit Dekorative Kunst No. 2 by Richard Larter. The »bidding war« ended at AUD 10,575.00 (€ 5,963.61), 32% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Richard Larter have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Australian Outlook I-Vii (7) in November 2007 with an auction result of AUD 74,400.00 (€ 44,818.30).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 32 % übertroffen

Im November 2002 führte Christies in Melbourne die Auktion AUSTRALIAN, INTERNATIONAL AND CONTEMPORARY PAINTINGS durch, in der auch die Arbeit Formenschonheit Dekorative Kunst No. 2 von Richard Larter zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von AUD 10.575,00 (€ 5.963,61) und damit 32% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Richard Larter auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Australian Outlook I-Vii (7) im November 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 74.400,00 (€ 44.818,30).
