Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Salah, from The Book of Kings series by Shirin Neshat was auctioned at Christies in London in July 2020. The price achieved of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 13,942.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Shirin Neshat achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Passage in October 2014 with an auction result of USD 269,000.00 (€ 214,684.76).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Salah, from The Book of Kings series von Shirin Neshat kam im Juli 2020 bei Christies in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 13.942,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Shirin Neshat erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Passage im Oktober 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 269.000,00 (€ 214.684,76).
