Upper estimate price exceeded by 41 %.
In May 2009 Christies in London held the auction Photobooks, which included the work Sketch Album. Tokyo: Nippon Camera-sha, 1974. by Shōji Ueda. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,125.00 (€ 1,286.99), 41% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Shōji Ueda have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Self-Portrait With Cat ('Me And Cat') in April 2011 with an auction result of USD 10,000.00 (€ 6,747.18).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 41 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2009 führte Christies in London die Auktion Photobooks durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sketch Album. Tokyo: Nippon Camera-sha, 1974. von Shōji Ueda zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 1.125,00 (€ 1.286,99) und damit 41% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Shōji Ueda auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Self-Portrait With Cat ('Me And Cat') im April 2011 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 10.000,00 (€ 6.747,18).
