Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Unknown by Ishikawa Toyonobu was sold in the Japanese Art and Design auction at Christies in London in May 2008. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 600.00 – 800.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 625.00 (€ 795.03) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ishikawa Toyonobu achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Unknown in September 2002 with an auction result of USD 119,500.00 (€ 120,963.66).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Unknown von Ishikawa Toyonobu wurde im Mai 2008 in der Auktion Japanese Art and Design bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 600,00 – 800,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 625,00 (€ 795,03) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ishikawa Toyonobu erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Unknown im September 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 119.500,00 (€ 120.963,66).
