A top price for Thomas Smythe - as previously expected
The work The dining chair sledge by Thomas Smythe was sold in the Victorian Pictures including The John H. Schaeffer auction at Christies in London in June 2004. The price achieved of GBP 10,994.00 (€ 16,362.37) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, The dining chair sledge is the most expensive artwork by Thomas Smythe that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit The dining chair sledge von Thomas Smythe wurde im Juni 2004 in der Auktion Victorian Pictures including The John H. Schaeffer bei Christies in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 10.994,00 (€ 16.362,37) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist The dining chair sledge das teuerste Kunstwerk von Thomas Smythe, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
