Artwork auctioned at five times the upper estimate price
The work Asakusa Tambo Tori No Machi Mode (Asakusa Rice Fields During The Cock Festival), From The Series Meisho Edo Hyakkei (One Hundred Views Of Famous Places Of Edo) by Utagawa Hiroshige was worth USD 22,500.00 (€ 18,635.08) to a buyer in April 2018. This price was achieved in the auction Japanese and Korean Art at Christies in New York and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of USD 4,500.00 many times over. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Utagawa Hiroshige achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tokaido gojusan tsugi no uchi (The fifty-three stations of the Tokaido) in September 2002 with an auction result of USD 207,500.00 (€ 210,041.50).
Kunstwerk zum Fünffachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Utagawa Hiroshige erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tokaido gojusan tsugi no uchi (The fifty-three stations of the Tokaido) im September 2002 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 207.500,00 (€ 210.041,50).
