Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2007 a collector was able to acquire the work Unknown by Katsukawa Shunko for GBP 937.50 (€ 1,312.74). This price was achieved in the auction The Bob Moore Collection of Japanese Art and Design at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00 set by the auction house. Admittedly, works by Katsukawa Shunko have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Unknown in March 2003 with an auction result of USD 10,157.50 (€ 9,318.81).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im November 2007 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Unknown von Katsukawa Shunko für GBP 937,50 (€ 1.312,74) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The Bob Moore Collection of Japanese Art and Design bei Christies in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Katsukawa Shunko auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Unknown im März 2003 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 10.157,50 (€ 9.318,81).
