Artwork auctioned at four times the upper estimate price
When the work Edo Period (1615-1868) by Ryuryukyo Shinsai was auctioned at Bonhams in New York in September 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 6,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than four times as high at USD 25,312.50 (€ 21,864.47). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Ryuryukyo Shinsai; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Edo Period (1615-1868), Circa 1820 sold at auction in September 2021 with the realized price of USD 37,812.50 (€ 32,661.74).
Kunstwerk zum Vierfachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Edo Period (1615-1868) von Ryuryukyo Shinsai im September 2021 bei Bonhams in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 6.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 25.312,50 (€ 21.864,47) mehr als viermal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Ryuryukyo Shinsai; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit Edo Period (1615-1868), Circa 1820 im September 2021 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 37.812,50 (€ 32.661,74).
