Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work Hana - Flower by Yuichi Inoue was auctioned at Sothebys in Hong Kong in July 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 250,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at HKD 1,000,000.00 (€ 109,563.44). Admittedly, works by Yuichi Inoue have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Shisso (Painted In 1972) in April this year with an auction result of HKD 504,000.00 (€ 514,682.61).
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Hana - Flower von Yuichi Inoue im Juli 2020 bei Sothebys in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 250.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 1.000.000,00 (€ 109.563,44) mehr als viermal so hoch. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Yuichi Inoue auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Shisso (Painted In 1972) im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 504.000,00 (€ 514.682,61).
