Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Towards Ninghan by Guy Grey-Smith was sold in the AUSTRALIAN AND INTERNATIONAL PAINTINGS auction at Christies in Melbourne in May 2002. It changed hands for a price of AUD 23,500.00 (€ 14,242.42) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of AUD 18,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Guy Grey-Smith - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mount Vernon, 1961, which sold at auction in September 2020 for AUD 39,040.00 (€ 33,316.27).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
