Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ohara Koson could be acquired at Bukowski in Stockholm in December last year for an unexpectedly low price. In the Important Winter Sale auction, the work Monkey, crow, hawk, racoon and tiger changed hands for SEK 8,500.00 (€ 761.96) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of SEK 10,000.00 – 12,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ohara Koson achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Hanging scroll, ink and colour on silk, of monkeys in a maple tree over a waterfall, signed Koson and sealed Koson in May 2013 with an auction result of GBP 11,250.00 (€ 13,153.01).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ohara Koson konnte im Dezember letzten Jahres bei Bukowski in Stockholm für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Important Winter Sale wechselte die Arbeit Monkey, crow, hawk, racoon and tiger für SEK 8.500,00 (€ 761,96) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von SEK 10.000,00 – 12.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ohara Koson erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Hanging scroll, ink and colour on silk, of monkeys in a maple tree over a waterfall, signed Koson and sealed Koson im Mai 2013 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 11.250,00 (€ 13.153,01).
