Auction result misses estimated price range
In September 2020 a collector was able to acquire the work Showa era (1926-1989) by Umetaro Azechi for USD 1,083.75 (€ 924.86). This price was achieved in the auction Fine Japanese and Korean Art at Bonhams in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Umetaro Azechi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Seven woodblock prints, which sold at auction in May 2021 for GBP 3,024.00 (€ 3,518.49).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im September 2020 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Showa era (1926-1989) von Umetaro Azechi für USD 1.083,75 (€ 924,86) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Fine Japanese and Korean Art bei Bonhams in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Umetaro Azechi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Seven woodblock prints beobachtet, die im Mai 2021 für GBP 3.024,00 (€ 3.518,49) versteigert wurde.
