Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Unknown by Chokosai Eisho was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2005. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 500.00 – 700.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 540.00 (€ 783.26) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chokosai Eisho achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Twelve prints from the erotic set entitled Fumi no kiyogaki (Freshly issued love letters), unsigned--good impressions, color faded, centerfolds, creased, some stained in March 2001 with an auction result of USD 12,925.00 (€ 14,697.52).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Unknown von Chokosai Eisho kam im Juli 2005 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 500,00 – 700,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 540,00 (€ 783,26) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chokosai Eisho erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Twelve prints from the erotic set entitled Fumi no kiyogaki (Freshly issued love letters), unsigned--good impressions, color faded, centerfolds, creased, some stained im März 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 12.925,00 (€ 14.697,52).
