Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work San'enzan Zōjōji zu (Mount San'enzan Zōjōji Temple) by Shôtei Hokuju was worth USD 8,925.00 (€ 8,209.16) to a buyer in March this year. This price was achieved in the auction Fine Japanese and Korean Works of Art at Bonhams and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 1,500.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Shôtei Hokuju - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ôban, yoko-e, which sold at auction in December 2017 for EUR 18,600.00.
