Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Cigarette Girl by Jack Levine was sold in the Fine American Paintings, Drawings and Sculpture Including the Collection of Dr. Mark and Irene Kauffman auction at Christies in New York in March 2012. The result of USD 40,000.00 (€ 29,998.50) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jack Levine - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Princess, which sold at auction in December 2011 for USD 86,500.00 (€ 66,676.94).

Für andere Arbeiten von Jack Levine mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Princess beobachtet, die im Dezember 2011 für USD 86.500,00 (€ 66.676,94) versteigert wurde.
