Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Flowers and butterflies by Tani Buncho was auctioned at Christies in New York in March 2004, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 1,500.00 – 2,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 896.25 (€ 729.13). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tani Buncho achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Geese in marsh in March 2008 with an auction result of USD 37,000.00 (€ 23,410.31).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Flowers and butterflies von Tani Buncho im März 2004 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 1.500,00 – 2.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 896,25 (€ 729,13) den Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tani Buncho erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Geese in marsh im März 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 37.000,00 (€ 23.410,31).
