Upper estimate price exceeded by 33 %.
In May 2019 Phillips in London held the auction Photographs, which included the work Yokosuka Story #73 Ōdaki-chō by Ishiuchi Miyako. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 10,625.00 (€ 12,026.86), 33% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ishiuchi Miyako achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Yokosuka Story in May 2018 with an auction result of GBP 106,250.00 (€ 120,990.25).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 33 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2019 führte Phillips in London die Auktion Photographs durch, in der auch die Arbeit Yokosuka Story #73 Ōdaki-chō von Ishiuchi Miyako zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 10.625,00 (€ 12.026,86) und damit 33% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ishiuchi Miyako erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Yokosuka Story im Mai 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 106.250,00 (€ 120.990,25).
