Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Calligraphy by Yamaoka Tesshu was auctioned at Christies in London in June 2003. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 900.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 1,015.75 (€ 1,459.69). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yamaoka Tesshu achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Zen Calligraphy in March 2001 with an auction result of USD 15,275.00 (€ 17,369.80).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Calligraphy von Yamaoka Tesshu kam im Juni 2003 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 900,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 1.015,75 (€ 1.459,69) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yamaoka Tesshu erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Zen Calligraphy im März 2001 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 15.275,00 (€ 17.369,80).
