Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Harakiri School Girls (Silver) by Makoto Aida was auctioned at Bonhams in London in August this year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of HKD 3,500.00 – 5,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for HKD 640.00 (€ 75.28). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Makoto Aida achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work ZAKU- (War Picture Returns- Side B) in November 2009 with an auction result of HKD 2,900,000.00 (€ 249,499.80).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Harakiri School Girls (Silver) von Makoto Aida im August diesen Jahres bei Bonhams in London versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von HKD 3.500,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für HKD 640,00 (€ 75,28) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Makoto Aida erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ZAKU- (War Picture Returns- Side B) im November 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 2.900.000,00 (€ 249.499,80).
