This artwork by Kitao Shigemasa achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2006. In the JapaneseArt and Design Including Netsuke from the Estate of His Royal Highness The Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester, KG.,KT.,KP auction, the work Unknown sold for GBP 2,280.00 (€ 3,337.65) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kitao Shigemasa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work La première, période Edo (1615-1868), fin du 18e et début 19e siècle ; la seconde, probablement ère Showa (1926-1989), début du 20e siècle, which sold at auction in October this year for EUR 11,520.00.
