Auction result well in line with expectations
The work 'South Bay Drive-In 726', 1993 by Hiroshi Sugimoto was sold in the From Japan with Love auction at Sothebys in London in October 2021. The price achieved of GBP 12,600.00 (€ 14,927.60) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hiroshi Sugimoto achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Black Sea, Ozuluce; Yellow Sea, Cheju; Red Sea, Safaga in May 2007 with an auction result of USD 1,888,000.00 (€ 1,403,404.45).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit 'South Bay Drive-In 726', 1993 von Hiroshi Sugimoto wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion From Japan with Love bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 12.600,00 (€ 14.927,60) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hiroshi Sugimoto erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Black Sea, Ozuluce; Yellow Sea, Cheju; Red Sea, Safaga im Mai 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.888.000,00 (€ 1.403.404,45).
