Upper estimate price exceeded by 100 %.
This artwork by Nara Yoshitomo achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Hong Kong in June 2021. In the No Regrets: Modern and Contemporary Art Online auction, the work Eleven Works: N's YARD Posters (i) Sorry, Couldn’t Draw the Left Eye!; (ii) The Little Star Dweller; (iii) In the Milky Lake / Thinking One; (iv) Dead of Night; (v) Dream Team; (vi) Should I Go?; (vii) Blankey; (viii) News; (ix) Let’s Talk About sold for HKD 10,000.00 (€ 1,086.26) - well above the upper esti Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nara Yoshitomo achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Knife Behind Back in October 2019 with an auction result of HKD 195,969,000.00 (€ 22,398,966.83).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 100 % übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Nara Yoshitomo erzielte im Juni 2021 bei Christies in Hong Kong einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion No Regrets: Modern and Contemporary Art Online wurde die Arbeit Eleven Works: N's YARD Posters (i) Sorry, Couldn’t Draw the Left Eye!; (ii) The Little Star Dweller; (iii) In the Milky Lake / Thinking One; (iv) Dead of Night; (v) Dream Team; (vi) Should I Go?; (vii) Blankey; (viii) News; (ix) Let’s Talk About für HKD 10.000,00 (€ 1.086,26) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von HKD 5.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nara Yoshitomo erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Knife Behind Back im Oktober 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von HKD 195.969.000,00 (€ 22.398.966,83).
