A top price for Kishi Gantai - as previously expected
The work Lions by Kishi Gantai was auctioned at Christies in New York in March 2007. It changed hands for a price of USD 7,800.00 (€ 5,832.21) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Lions is the most expensive artwork by Kishi Gantai that we have observed at auctions so far.
