Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work House By The Road by Grace Cossington Smith was auctioned at Christies in Melbourne in May 2004. Here, the upper estimate of AUD 7,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for AUD 7,767.50 (€ 4,538.30). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Grace Cossington Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Still Life With Jugs in May 2004 with an auction result of AUD 203,150.00 (€ 118,694.01).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit House By The Road von Grace Cossington Smith kam im Mai 2004 bei Christies in Melbourne zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von AUD 7.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für AUD 7.767,50 (€ 4.538,30) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Grace Cossington Smith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Still Life With Jugs im Mai 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von AUD 203.150,00 (€ 118.694,01).
