Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Umemodoki (Holly) by Yokoyama Taikan was auctioned at Christies in New York in March 2005, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - USD 8,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at USD 24,000.00 (€ 18,505.67). 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).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Umemodoki (Holly) von Yokoyama Taikan im März 2005 bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – USD 8.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit USD 24.000,00 (€ 18.505,67) mehr als dreimal so hoch. 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).
