Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Unknown by Chobunsai Eishi was sold in the Japanese Art and Design auction at Christies in London in November 2010. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 700.00 – 900.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 750.00 (€ 896.25) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chobunsai Eishi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Beauty writing a poem on a fan in March 2008 with an auction result of USD 229,000.00 (€ 144,890.86).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Unknown von Chobunsai Eishi wurde im November 2010 in der Auktion Japanese Art and Design bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 700,00 – 900,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 750,00 (€ 896,25) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chobunsai Eishi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Beauty writing a poem on a fan im März 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 229.000,00 (€ 144.890,86).
