Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Munakata Shiko could be acquired at Sothebys in New York in September 2007 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Mid Season Prints auction, the work Forest; Landscape; And Figure changed hands for USD 2,813.00 (€ 1,978.34) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Munakata Shiko achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hakki-hi (White-skinned goddess) in November 2000 with an auction result of USD 70,500.00 (€ 81,090.41).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Munakata Shiko konnte im September 2007 bei Sothebys in New York für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Mid Season Prints wechselte die Arbeit Forest; Landscape; And Figure für USD 2.813,00 (€ 1.978,34) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Munakata Shiko erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hakki-hi (White-skinned goddess) im November 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 70.500,00 (€ 81.090,41).
