Auction result misses estimated price range
In September 2010 a collector was able to acquire the work Drawing hour, 2007 by Wonsook Kim for USD 3,500.00 (€ 2,573.34). This price was achieved in the auction Japanese & Korean Art Including Arts of the Meiji Period at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 4,000.00 – 5,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wonsook Kim - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work By the shore, 1992, which sold at auction in March 2008 for USD 15,000.00 (€ 9,490.67).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im September 2010 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Drawing hour, 2007 von Wonsook Kim für USD 3.500,00 (€ 2.573,34) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Japanese & Korean Art Including Arts of the Meiji Period bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 4.000,00 – 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Wonsook Kim mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit By the shore, 1992 beobachtet, die im März 2008 für USD 15.000,00 (€ 9.490,67) versteigert wurde.
