Despite a disappointment, a good price for Watanabe Kazan
When the work Autumn grasses by Watanabe Kazan was auctioned at Christies in New York in March 2003, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 20,000.00 – 30,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 19,120.00 (€ 17,541.28). Despite this disappointing result, Autumn grasses is the most expensive artwork by Watanabe Kazan that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Watanabe Kazan
Als die Arbeit Autumn grasses von Watanabe Kazan im März 2003 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 20.000,00 – 30.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 19.120,00 (€ 17.541,28) den Besitzer. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Autumn grasses das teuerste Kunstwerk von Watanabe Kazan, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
