Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Itabashi no eki (Itabashi Station) by Keisai Eisen was auctioned at Christies in New York in September last year. The price achieved of USD 5,040.00 (€ 5,151.79) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Keisai Eisen - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Courtesan, which sold at auction in September 2004 for USD 23,900.00 (€ 19,247.81).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Itabashi no eki (Itabashi Station) von Keisai Eisen kam im September letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 5.040,00 (€ 5.151,79) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Keisai Eisen mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Courtesan beobachtet, die im September 2004 für USD 23.900,00 (€ 19.247,81) versteigert wurde.
