Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Edo period (1615-1868), 19th century by Keisai Eisen was sold in the Japanese and Korean Art auction at Bonhams in New York in March last year. Here, the upper estimate of USD 1,500.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 1,657.50 (€ 1,494.19). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Keisai Eisen achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Courtesan in September 2004 with an auction result of USD 23,900.00 (€ 19,247.81).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Edo period (1615-1868), 19th century von Keisai Eisen wurde im März letzten Jahres in der Auktion Japanese and Korean Art bei Bonhams in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 1.500,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 1.657,50 (€ 1.494,19) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Keisai Eisen erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Courtesan im September 2004 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 23.900,00 (€ 19.247,81).
