This artwork by Frank Jeffrey Edson Smart achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Melbourne in May 2002. In the AUSTRALIAN AND INTERNATIONAL PAINTINGS auction, the work Study for Port Dampier sold for AUD 22,325.00 (€ 13,530.30) - well above the upper estimate of AUD 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Frank Jeffrey Edson Smart achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Arezzo Turn-Off II in November 2001 with an auction result of AUD 376,000.00 (€ 218,388.93).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Frank Jeffrey Edson Smart erzielte im Mai 2002 bei Christies in Melbourne einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion AUSTRALIAN AND INTERNATIONAL PAINTINGS wurde die Arbeit Study for Port Dampier für AUD 22.325,00 (€ 13.530,30) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von AUD 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Frank Jeffrey Edson Smart erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Arezzo Turn-Off II im November 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 376.000,00 (€ 218.388,93).
