Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work La Mariee Veuve, Autoportrait 2001 - The Widow Bride. Self-Portrait, 2001 by Kimiko Yoshida was auctioned at Artcurial in Paris in October 2009, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at - in retrospect quite modest - EUR 2,500.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at EUR 7,650.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kimiko Yoshida - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Red Akamba with Kikuyu, Kenya, Autoportrait, which sold at auction in April 2008 for GBP 20,900.00 (€ 26,644.55).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit La Mariee Veuve, Autoportrait 2001 - The Widow Bride. Self-Portrait, 2001 von Kimiko Yoshida im Oktober 2009 bei Artcurial in Paris versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – EUR 2.500,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit EUR 7.650,00 mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Kimiko Yoshida mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Red Akamba with Kikuyu, Kenya, Autoportrait beobachtet, die im April 2008 für GBP 20.900,00 (€ 26.644,55) versteigert wurde.
