In November 2019 Christies in New York held the auction American Art Online, which included the work A Bit on the Hudson by James David Smillie. The »bidding war« ended at USD 6,875.00 (€ 6,239.22), 38% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by James David Smillie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Lake Placid and the Adirondack Mountains from Whiteface in May 2004 with an auction result of USD 130,700.00 (€ 106,982.07).

Im November 2019 führte Christies in New York die Auktion American Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit A Bit on the Hudson von James David Smillie zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 6.875,00 (€ 6.239,22) und damit 38% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von James David Smillie erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Lake Placid and the Adirondack Mountains from Whiteface im Mai 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 130.700,00 (€ 106.982,07).
