Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Showa era (1926-1989), circa 1925 by Kitano Tsunetomi was sold in the Japanese and Korean Art auction at Bonhams in New York in March last year. It changed hands for a price of USD 7,650.00 (€ 6,896.24) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 6,000.00 – 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kitano Tsunetomi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Heron Maiden (Sagi Musume), which sold at auction in November 2019 for GBP 17,500.00 (€ 20,549.28).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
