A top price for J. R. Smith - as previously expected
In March 2009 Christies in New York held the auction Christie's Interiors, which included the work View Of Ramsgate; And A Companion Work by J. R. Smith. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 1,000.00 – 1,500.00, the actual price achieved of USD 1,125.00 (€ 848.35) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, View Of Ramsgate; And A Companion Work is the most expensive artwork by J. R. Smith that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Im März 2009 führte Christies in New York die Auktion Christie's Interiors durch, in der auch die Arbeit View Of Ramsgate; And A Companion Work von J. R. Smith zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.000,00 – 1.500,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 1.125,00 (€ 848,35) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist View Of Ramsgate; And A Companion Work das teuerste Kunstwerk von J. R. Smith, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
