Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Unknown by Utagawa Toyokuni II was sold in the Japanese Art and Design auction at Christies in London in July 2005. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 800.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 900.00 (€ 1,305.44). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Utagawa Toyokuni II achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Ichikawa Danjuro in a pleasure quarter scene in December 2021 with an auction result of GBP 21,420.00 (€ 25,549.57).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Unknown von Utagawa Toyokuni II wurde im Juli 2005 in der Auktion Japanese Art and Design bei Christies in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 800,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 900,00 (€ 1.305,44) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Utagawa Toyokuni II erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Ichikawa Danjuro in a pleasure quarter scene im Dezember 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 21.420,00 (€ 25.549,57).
