Auction result well in line with expectations

The work An attack on an Indian fort, probably Bharatpore by Robert Smith was sold in the Arts of India auction at Christies in London in September 2003. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 15,535.00 (€ 15,647.98) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Admittedly, works by Robert Smith have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work View of Mount Erskine and Pulo Ticoose, Prince of Wales' Island in October 2014 with an auction result of GBP 68,500.00 (€ 87,464.60).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit An attack on an Indian fort, probably Bharatpore von Robert Smith wurde im September 2003 in der Auktion Arts of India bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 25.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 15.535,00 (€ 15.647,98) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Robert Smith auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit View of Mount Erskine and Pulo Ticoose, Prince of Wales' Island im Oktober 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 68.500,00 (€ 87.464,60).
