This artwork by Masami Teraoka achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in January this year. In the Prints & Multiples | Live Online auction, the work Chochin-me, from McDonald's Hamburgers Invading Japan sold for USD 2,805.00 (€ 2,583.35) - well above the upper estimate of USD 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Masami Teraoka achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Cloisters Venus and Pope's Workout in November 2009 with an auction result of HKD 4,820,000.00 (€ 414,685.87).

Dieses Kunstwerk von Masami Teraoka erzielte im Januar diesen Jahres bei Bonhams einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Prints & Multiples | Live Online wurde die Arbeit Chochin-me, from McDonald's Hamburgers Invading Japan für USD 2.805,00 (€ 2.583,35) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Masami Teraoka erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Cloisters Venus and Pope's Workout im November 2009 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 4.820.000,00 (€ 414.685,87).
