Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Aernout Smit could be acquired at Sothebys in London in April 2016 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Old Masters auction, the work Shipping Off A Coast In Choppy Water changed hands for GBP 5,250.00 (€ 6,711.06) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 7,000.00 – 10,000.00. Admittedly, works by Aernout Smit have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A Dutch three-master firing a salute, together with numerous other ships near a quay to the left, a windmill in the distance and outskirts of towns on the far horizon in October 2021 with an auction result of EUR 62,500.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Aernout Smit konnte im April 2016 bei Sothebys in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Old Masters wechselte die Arbeit Shipping Off A Coast In Choppy Water für GBP 5.250,00 (€ 6.711,06) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 7.000,00 – 10.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Aernout Smit auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit A Dutch three-master firing a salute, together with numerous other ships near a quay to the left, a windmill in the distance and outskirts of towns on the far horizon im Oktober 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 62.500,00.
