Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Iwashi biki (Fishing for sardines) by Sengai Gibon was sold in the Japanese & Korean Art auction at Christies in New York in September 2008. It changed hands for a price of USD 5,625.00 (€ 3,994.74) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Sengai Gibon achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Famous moments in the lives of Zen monks in September 2011 with an auction result of USD 74,500.00 (€ 55,394.45).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Iwashi biki (Fishing for sardines) von Sengai Gibon wurde im September 2008 in der Auktion Japanese & Korean Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 5.625,00 (€ 3.994,74) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Sengai Gibon erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Famous moments in the lives of Zen monks im September 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 74.500,00 (€ 55.394,45).
