Auction result misses estimated price range
When the work Haru no nagare (Stream in spring) by Yokoyama Taikan was auctioned at Christies in New York in May 2001, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 30,000.00 – 40,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 28,200.00 (€ 33,353.05). 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 verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Als die Arbeit Haru no nagare (Stream in spring) von Yokoyama Taikan im Mai 2001 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 30.000,00 – 40.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 28.200,00 (€ 33.353,05) den Besitzer. 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).
