This artwork by Shinkichi Tajiri achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in Amsterdam in October 2011. In the The BAT Artventure Collection formerly known as The Peter Stuyvesant Collection – Part Three auction, the work Warrior sold for EUR 16,250.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Shinkichi Tajiri - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Guerrier - Warrior, which sold at auction in October 2012 for EUR 58,600.00.
