Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2011 Sothebys in Amsterdam held the auction The BAT Artventure Collection formerly known as The Peter Stuyvesant Collection – Part Three, which included the work Study In Natural Mohair Tones by Kumi Sugai. Here, the upper estimate of EUR 1,200.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for EUR 1,375.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Kumi Sugai achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work KAGURA (Sacred Music and Dance) in November 2015 with an auction result of USD 293,000.00 (€ 277,409.58).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2011 führte Sothebys in Amsterdam die Auktion The BAT Artventure Collection formerly known as The Peter Stuyvesant Collection – Part Three durch, in der auch die Arbeit Study In Natural Mohair Tones von Kumi Sugai zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von EUR 1.200,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für EUR 1.375,00 einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Kumi Sugai erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit KAGURA (Sacred Music and Dance) im November 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 293.000,00 (€ 277.409,58).
