Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
In March last year Bonhams in New York held the auction Japanese and Korean Art, which included the work Edo period (1615-1868), 19th century by Utagawa Toyokuni. The »bidding war« ended at USD 2,550.00 (€ 2,298.75), 28% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Utagawa Toyokuni achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Edo Period (1615-1868), Early 19Th Century in September 2021 with an auction result of USD 44,062.50 (€ 38,060.38).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in New York die Auktion Japanese and Korean Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Edo period (1615-1868), 19th century von Utagawa Toyokuni zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 2.550,00 (€ 2.298,75) und damit 28% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Utagawa Toyokuni erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Edo Period (1615-1868), Early 19Th Century im September 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 44.062,50 (€ 38.060,38).
