Auction result well in line with expectations
The work A Capriccio View Of Chichester, With Figures And Cattle In The Foreground by George Smith of Chichester was auctioned at Christies in London in November 2004. It changed hands for a price of GBP 5,736.00 (€ 8,251.21) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Smith of Chichester - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A winter landscape with a haystack, cottages and figures, a river beyond; and A winter landscape with two figures crossing a wooden bridge, a village and a church beyond, which sold at auction in December 2011 for GBP 25,000.00 (€ 29,941.03).
