Upper estimate price exceeded by 37 %.
In October 2021 Sothebys in London held the auction From Japan with Love, which included the work Portfolio 1990 by Kazuo Shiraga. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 8,190.00 (€ 9,702.94), 37% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Kazuo Shiraga achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Takao in June 2018 with an auction result of EUR 8,731,400.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 37 % übertroffen
Im Oktober 2021 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion From Japan with Love durch, in der auch die Arbeit Portfolio 1990 von Kazuo Shiraga zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 8.190,00 (€ 9.702,94) und damit 37% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Kazuo Shiraga erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Takao im Juni 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von EUR 8.731.400,00.
