Auction result misses estimated price range
In November 2001 a collector was able to acquire the work Two beauties smoking pipes and walking under cherry blossoms, followed by a young boy carrying an umbrella while a puppy plays at their feet, with signature Gyonen rokujugo-o aged sixty-five Ichiryusai Toyoharu ga with a seal Ichiryusai by Utagawa Toyoharu for GBP 2,350.00 (€ 3,739.59). This price was achieved in the auction JAPANESE ART AND DESIGN at Christies in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 6,000.00 – Admittedly, works by Utagawa Toyoharu have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Ten beauties of Edo in March 2004 with an auction result of USD 19,120.00 (€ 15,554.83).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
