Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Taisho era (1912-1926), dated 1920 by Hashiguchi Goyo was auctioned at Bonhams in London in November 2021, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for GBP 1,912.50 (€ 2,245.45). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hashiguchi Goyo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Taisho era (1912-1926), 1915 in September 2020 with an auction result of USD 40,075.00 (€ 34,199.52).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Taisho era (1912-1926), dated 1920 von Hashiguchi Goyo im November 2021 bei Bonhams in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für GBP 1.912,50 (€ 2.245,45) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hashiguchi Goyo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Taisho era (1912-1926), 1915 im September 2020 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 40.075,00 (€ 34.199,52).
