The work Hanauma Bay Series/Catfish Zen Monk by Masami Teraoka was sold in the Asian 20th Century Art (Day Sale) auction at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2018. It achieved a price of HKD 1,250,000.00 (€ 136,568.12), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Masami Teraoka - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Cloisters Venus and Pope's Workout, which sold at auction in November 2009 for HKD 4,820,000.00 (€ 414,685.87).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 25 % übertroffen
