Auction result misses estimated price range
In March 2000 a collector was able to acquire the work Sakana to sakuranbo (Fish and cherries) Tanishi (Mud snails) by Yozo Hamaguchi for USD 4,025.00 (€ 4,204.09). This price was achieved in the auction Japanese and Korean Art at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 4,500.00 – 5,500.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Yozo Hamaguchi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Roofs of Paris (M. Gallery 42) in May 2002 with an auction result of USD 33,460.00 (€ 35,828.25).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im März 2000 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Sakana to sakuranbo (Fish and cherries) Tanishi (Mud snails) von Yozo Hamaguchi für USD 4.025,00 (€ 4.204,09) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Japanese and Korean Art bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.500,00 – 5.500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Yozo Hamaguchi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Roofs of Paris (M. Gallery 42) im Mai 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 33.460,00 (€ 35.828,25).
