Auction result well in line with expectations
In December 2017 Sothebys in London held the auction 19th Century European Paintings, which included the work Japanese winter Landscape by Kuroda Seiki. The price achieved of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 16,880.30) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Kuroda Seiki - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Yamazakura (Wild cherry tree), which sold at auction in March 2002 for USD 32,900.00 (€ 37,742.34).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Dezember 2017 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion 19th Century European Paintings durch, in der auch die Arbeit Japanese winter Landscape von Kuroda Seiki zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 15.000,00 (€ 16.880,30) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Kuroda Seiki mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Yamazakura (Wild cherry tree) beobachtet, die im März 2002 für USD 32.900,00 (€ 37.742,34) versteigert wurde.
