Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Francis Hopkinson Smith could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in July 2020 for an unexpectedly low price. In the From Coast to Coast: Property from a Private Florida Collection auction, the work River View changed hands for USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,592.49) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Francis Hopkinson Smith achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Scene in Venice in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 45,000.00 (€ 33,449.79).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Francis Hopkinson Smith konnte im Juli 2020 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion From Coast to Coast: Property from a Private Florida Collection wechselte die Arbeit River View für USD 1.875,00 (€ 1.592,49) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Francis Hopkinson Smith erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Scene in Venice im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 45.000,00 (€ 33.449,79).
