A top price for Kinichiro Ishikawa - as previously expected
The work Landscape Of Taiwan(Painted In 1926) by Kinichiro Ishikawa was sold in the Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art auction at China Guardian in Hong Kong in October 2017. The price achieved of HKD 472,000.00 (€ 51,949.18) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 400,000.00 – 600,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Landscape Of Taiwan(Painted In 1926) is the most expensive artwork by Kinichiro Ishikawa that we have observed at auctions so far.
