Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Self-Portrait by Yayoi Kusama was sold in the Evening & Day Editions auction at Phillips in London in January 2015. The auction ended at the price of GBP 1,500.00 (€ 1,996.37), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 1,000.00 – 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yayoi Kusama achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Pumpkin in April this year with an auction result of HKD 30,000,000.00 (€ 30,635,869.57).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Self-Portrait von Yayoi Kusama wurde im Januar 2015 in der Auktion Evening & Day Editions bei Phillips in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 1.500,00 (€ 1.996,37) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 1.000,00 – 1.500,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yayoi Kusama erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Pumpkin im April diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 30.000.000,00 (€ 30.635.869,57).
