Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Fu (Floating) by Yamaguchi Takeo was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Art Evening Sale auction at Christies in Hong Kong in December 2020. Here, the upper estimate of HKD 5,000,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for HKD 5,250,000.00 (€ 553,761.24). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yamaguchi Takeo - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Ho (Crawl), which sold at auction in May last year for HKD 12,450,000.00 (€ 1,478,082.19).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Fu (Floating) von Yamaguchi Takeo wurde im Dezember 2020 in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Art Evening Sale bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von HKD 5.000.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für HKD 5.250.000,00 (€ 553.761,24) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Yamaguchi Takeo mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Ho (Crawl) beobachtet, die im Mai letzten Jahres für HKD 12.450.000,00 (€ 1.478.082,19) versteigert wurde.
