Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Mrs James Denew, facing right in dress with laced bodice and white frilled underslip, pearl necklace, elaborate high standing lace mantilla in her curling hair by Thomas Forster was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2000. It achieved a price of GBP 998.75 (€ 1,632.42), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Thomas Forster achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Portrait Of A Gentleman in December 2019 with an auction result of GBP 65,000.00 (€ 76,822.39).

Die Arbeit Mrs James Denew, facing right in dress with laced bodice and white frilled underslip, pearl necklace, elaborate high standing lace mantilla in her curling hair von Thomas Forster kam im November 2000 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 998,75 (€ 1.632,42) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 25%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Thomas Forster erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Portrait Of A Gentleman im Dezember 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 65.000,00 (€ 76.822,39).
