A top price for Ryuki Yamamoto
When the work The War is an Individual No. 2 by Ryuki Yamamoto was auctioned at Christies in Hong Kong in May 2007, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - HKD 150,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than 19 times as high at HKD 2,880,000.00 (€ 274,234.74). This high result makes The War is an Individual No. 2 the most expensive artwork by Ryuki Yamamoto that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Ryuki Yamamoto
Als die Arbeit The War is an Individual No. 2 von Ryuki Yamamoto im Mai 2007 bei Christies in Hong Kong versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – HKD 150.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit HKD 2.880.000,00 (€ 274.234,74) mehr als 19-mal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht The War is an Individual No. 2 zu dem teuersten Kunstwerk von Ryuki Yamamoto, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
