Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In April this year Bonhams held the auction California Art, which included the work Early Cherry Blossoms, Nogeyama, Yokohama by Theodore Wores. Here, the upper estimate of USD 18,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 20,400.00 (€ 18,478.26). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Theodore Wores achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Chinese Musicians in November 2018 with an auction result of USD 483,000.00 (€ 426,565.40).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im April diesen Jahres führte Bonhams die Auktion California Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Early Cherry Blossoms, Nogeyama, Yokohama von Theodore Wores zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 18.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 20.400,00 (€ 18.478,26) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Theodore Wores erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Chinese Musicians im November 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 483.000,00 (€ 426.565,40).
