Auction result misses estimated price range

In October 2001 a collector was able to acquire the work Landscape and calligraphy by Minagawa Kien for USD 1,175.00 (€ 1,306.57). This price was achieved in the auction THE FALK COLLECTION II: CHINESE AND JAPANESE WORKS OF ART at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Minagawa Kien - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Landscape and poem, which sold at auction in October 2001 for USD 2,820.00 (€ 3,135.77).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im Oktober 2001 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Landscape and calligraphy von Minagawa Kien für USD 1.175,00 (€ 1.306,57) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion THE FALK COLLECTION II: CHINESE AND JAPANESE WORKS OF ART bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Minagawa Kien mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Landscape and poem beobachtet, die im Oktober 2001 für USD 2.820,00 (€ 3.135,77) versteigert wurde.
