Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Bottles, Light and Shadow in a Room by Jack Smith was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2011. The result of GBP 4,000.00 (€ 4,590.60) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Jack Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Interior With Figures in July 2008 with an auction result of GBP 51,650.00 (€ 65,621.91).
