Auction result well in line with expectations
In June 2001 Christies in London held the auction JAPANESE ART AND DESIGN, which included the work Gyoson Fishing Village by Yokoyama Taikan. The price achieved of GBP 5,875.00 (€ 9,759.54) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 5,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yokoyama Taikan achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Miho no Fujisan (Mount Fuji from Miho) in November 2000 with an auction result of USD 358,000.00 (€ 411,778.24).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im Juni 2001 führte Christies in London die Auktion JAPANESE ART AND DESIGN durch, in der auch die Arbeit Gyoson Fishing Village von Yokoyama Taikan zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.875,00 (€ 9.759,54) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 5.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yokoyama Taikan erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Miho no Fujisan (Mount Fuji from Miho) im November 2000 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 358.000,00 (€ 411.778,24).
