Auction result well in line with expectations
In September this year Christies in Los Angeles held the auction Japanese and Korean Art, which included the work Buyo Tsukudajima (Tsukuda Island in Musashi Province) by Katsushika Hokusai. The price achieved of USD 12,600.00 (€ 11,904.76) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 10,000.00 – 20,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Katsushika Hokusai achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Kanagawa oki nami ura (Under the well of the Great Wave off Kanagawa) [“Great Wave”|AID1099960] in March this year with an auction result of USD 2,760,000.00 (€ 2,538,631.35).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September diesen Jahres führte Christies in Los Angeles die Auktion Japanese and Korean Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Buyo Tsukudajima (Tsukuda Island in Musashi Province) von Katsushika Hokusai zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 12.600,00 (€ 11.904,76) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 10.000,00 – 20.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Katsushika Hokusai erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Kanagawa oki nami ura (Under the well of the Great Wave off Kanagawa) [“Great Wave”|AID1099960] im März diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 2.760.000,00 (€ 2.538.631,35).
