Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2010 Christies in London held the auction Japanese Art and Design, which included the work Unknown by Migita Toshihide. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 800.00 – 1,200.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 875.00 (€ 1,045.62) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Migita Toshihide - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Unknown, which sold at auction in July 2005 for GBP 1,800.00 (€ 2,610.88).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2010 führte Christies in London die Auktion Japanese Art and Design durch, in der auch die Arbeit Unknown von Migita Toshihide zur Versteigerung kam. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.200,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 875,00 (€ 1.045,62) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Für andere Arbeiten von Migita Toshihide mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Unknown beobachtet, die im Juli 2005 für GBP 1.800,00 (€ 2.610,88) versteigert wurde.
