Sold at the upper estimate price
This work without title by David Smith was sold in the First Open Online: Post War & Contemporary Art auction at Christies in New York in December 2021. The auction ended at the price of USD 20,000.00 (€ 17,670.97), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by David Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Zig I in May 2016 with an auction result of USD 9,210,000.00 (€ 8,271,216.88).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Diese Arbeit ohne Titel von David Smith wurde im Dezember 2021 in der Auktion First Open Online: Post War & Contemporary Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 17.670,97) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von David Smith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Zig I im Mai 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 9.210.000,00 (€ 8.271.216,88).
