The work Before Singing, Madame Talia Savanieva by Chiura Obata was sold in the Japanese Woodblock Prints | Including the Sokolov Collection auction at Sothebys in London in May 2021. It achieved a price of GBP 630.00 (€ 733.02), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 26%. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Chiura Obata achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Showa Era (1926-1989) in September 2021 with an auction result of USD 15,300.00 (€ 13,215.86).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 26 % übertroffen
Die Arbeit Before Singing, Madame Talia Savanieva von Chiura Obata wurde im Mai 2021 in der Auktion Japanese Woodblock Prints | Including the Sokolov Collection bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Sie erzielte dabei einen Preis von GBP 630,00 (€ 733,02) und übertraf damit das obere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne um 26%. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Chiura Obata erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Showa Era (1926-1989) im September 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 15.300,00 (€ 13.215,86).
