Despite a disappointment, a good price for Akiyama Iwao
In November last year a collector was able to acquire the work Showa era (1926-1989), dated between 1975 and 1986 by Akiyama Iwao for GBP 765.00 (€ 886.46). This price was achieved in the auction Patient Detail, Perfect DesignJapanese Art across the Centuries at Bonhams in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 800.00 – 1,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, Showa era (1926-1989), dated between 1975 and 1986 is the most expensive artwork by Akiyama Iwao that we have observed at auction so far.

Im November letzten Jahres konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Showa era (1926-1989), dated between 1975 and 1986 von Akiyama Iwao für GBP 765,00 (€ 886,46) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Patient Detail, Perfect DesignJapanese Art across the Centuries bei Bonhams in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Showa era (1926-1989), dated between 1975 and 1986 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Akiyama Iwao, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
