Upper estimate price exceeded by 75 %.

The work Pumpkin by Yayoi Kusama was auctioned at Bonhams in Hong Kong in December last year. It achieved a price of HKD 122,400.00 (€ 14,667.86), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 75%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yayoi Kusama achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pumpkin in April this year with an auction result of HKD 30,000,000.00 (€ 30,635,869.57).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Pumpkin von Yayoi Kusama kam im Dezember letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in Hong Kong zur Auktion. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von HKD 122.400,00 (€ 14.667,86) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 75%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yayoi Kusama erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pumpkin im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 30.000.000,00 (€ 30.635.869,57).
