Auction result misses estimated price range
In July 2002 a collector was able to acquire the work A coastal nocturne with a ship ablaze on the shore, others in a calm beyond, a fortified port beyond by Aernout Smit for GBP 23,900.00 (€ 38,121.43). This price was achieved in the auction Important Old Master Pictures at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00 set by the auction house. Other works by Aernout Smit have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in October 2021 by the work A Dutch three-master firing a salute, together with numerous other ships near a quay to the left, a windmill in the distance and outskirts of towns on the far horizon at EUR 62,500.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Juli 2002 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit A coastal nocturne with a ship ablaze on the shore, others in a calm beyond, a fortified port beyond von Aernout Smit für GBP 23.900,00 (€ 38.121,43) erwerben.

Andere Arbeiten von Aernout Smit wurden auch schon teurer gehandelt; den höchsten Preis, den wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachten konnten, erzielte im Oktober 2021 die Arbeit A Dutch three-master firing a salute, together with numerous other ships near a quay to the left, a windmill in the distance and outskirts of towns on the far horizon mit EUR 62.500,00.
