Sold at the upper estimate price
The work Death, Beauty And Justice Iii by Raqib Shaw was sold in the Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art auction at Sothebys in London in October 2016. The auction ended at the price of GBP 50,000.00 (€ 55,701.51), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of GBP 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Raqib Shaw achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Garden Of Earthly Delights Iii in October 2007 with an auction result of GBP 2,708,500.00 (€ 3,889,584.22).
