Auction result well in line with expectations

In March 2019 China Guardian in Hong Kong held the auction Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art, which included the work Homage To Francis Bacon (Set Of Two Pieces)(Executed In 2016) by Takashi Murakami. The price achieved of HKD 21,240.00 (€ 2,410.02) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 15,000.00 – 35,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Takashi Murakami achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work My Lonesome Cowboy in May 2008 with an auction result of USD 15,161,000.00 (€ 9,743,573.26).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im März 2019 führte China Guardian in Hong Kong die Auktion Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Homage To Francis Bacon (Set Of Two Pieces)(Executed In 2016) von Takashi Murakami zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von HKD 21.240,00 (€ 2.410,02) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit HKD 15.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Takashi Murakami erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit My Lonesome Cowboy im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 15.161.000,00 (€ 9.743.573,26).
