Auction result well in line with expectations
In November this year Bonhams held the auction Japan-Mania (Online-only), which included the work Omi Kotoda, Yawata Saburo from the series Kisokaido rokujukyu tsugi (69 Stations on the Kisokaido Road) by Utagawa Kuniyoshi. The price achieved of GBP 832.00 (€ 964.11) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 700.00 – 900.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Utagawa Kuniyoshi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Mitsukuni Defying The Skeleton Spectre Conjured Up By Princess Takiyasha (Souma No Furudairi Yokai Ga Shadokuro To Tatakau Oya Notarou Mitsukuni) in November 2019 with an auction result of GBP 200,000.00 (€ 234,848.90).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion Japan-Mania (Online-only) durch, in der auch die Arbeit Omi Kotoda, Yawata Saburo from the series Kisokaido rokujukyu tsugi (69 Stations on the Kisokaido Road) von Utagawa Kuniyoshi zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 832,00 (€ 964,11) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 700,00 – 900,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Utagawa Kuniyoshi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Mitsukuni Defying The Skeleton Spectre Conjured Up By Princess Takiyasha (Souma No Furudairi Yokai Ga Shadokuro To Tatakau Oya Notarou Mitsukuni) im November 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 200.000,00 (€ 234.848,90).
