Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Edo Period (1615-1868), 1785-1789 by Kubo Shunman was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in September 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 12,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 47,812.50 (€ 41,299.56). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Kubo Shunman; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Edo Period (1615-1868), 1810S sold at auction in September 2021 with the realized price of USD 56,562.50 (€ 48,857.65).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Edo Period (1615-1868), 1785-1789 von Kubo Shunman im September 2021 bei Bonhams in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches.

Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Kubo Shunman; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Edo Period (1615-1868), 1810S im September 2021 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 56.562,50 (€ 48.857,65).
