Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Smoke + Veil, Paris, 1958 by William Klein was sold in the Photographs auction at Christies in New York in June 2020. It changed hands for a price of USD 7,500.00 (€ 6,677.94) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by William Klein achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Smoke And Veil, Paris, 1958 (Vogue) in April 2006 with an auction result of USD 144,000.00 (€ 114,068.44).
