LUCIEN FREUD AND HIS PORTRAIT OF HOCKNEY TOP THE SALE WITH 15 MILLION
PETER LANYON FOR JUST UNDER A MILLION
THAT WAS A GREAT PRICE FOR A PORTRAIT BUT THAT WAS NOT THE ONLY FINE RESULT IN THE SALE.
HOCKNEY HIMSELF TOOK OVER FOUR MILLION FOR HIS GLADIOLI.
DOIG TOOK OVER FOUR MILLION WITH HIS BOMB ISLAND AND OVER FIVE MILLION WITH HIS BLUE MOUNTAIN.
MORE SUCCESSE FOR LOWRY, BOMBERG ETC.
WHEN A SALE AMASSES 48 MILLION FOR ONE SALE WITH SO FEW LOTS, WE CONSIDER IT A GREAT SUCCESS AND VERY PROMISING FOR ANY BRITISH ART.
