Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Landscape and calligraphy by Ike Taiga was auctioned at Christies in New York in March 2002, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,175.00 (€ 1,347.94). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ike Taiga achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Shun'un shusshu (Mountain peak in spring haze) in March 2003 with an auction result of USD 50,190.00 (€ 46,045.87).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Landscape and calligraphy von Ike Taiga im März 2002 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.175,00 (€ 1.347,94) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ike Taiga erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Shun'un shusshu (Mountain peak in spring haze) im März 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 50.190,00 (€ 46.045,87).
