Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2021 Christies held the auction Important Japanese Art, which included the work Landscapes, Plants And Animals Of Four Seasons by Shibata Zeshin. The price achieved of USD 137,500.00 (€ 118,769.97) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 120,000.00 – 170,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Shibata Zeshin - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Album Of Twelve Lacquer Paintings, which sold at auction in September 2013 for USD 339,750.00 (€ 251,015.88).
