Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In September last year Christies in New York held the auction Japanese and Korean Art, which included the work Sparrows, basket and pine cone by Totoya Hokkei. Here, the upper estimate of USD 4,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 4,410.00 (€ 4,507.82). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Totoya Hokkei achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tiger Looking At The Moon in September 2021 with an auction result of USD 350,000.00 (€ 302,323.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im September letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion Japanese and Korean Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Sparrows, basket and pine cone von Totoya Hokkei zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 4.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 4.410,00 (€ 4.507,82) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Totoya Hokkei erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tiger Looking At The Moon im September 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 350.000,00 (€ 302.323,57).
