Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Seeking Martyrdom (variation #1) by Shirin Neshat was sold in the 20th/21st Century: Amsterdam auction at Christies in Amsterdam in November 2021. The result of EUR 5,000.00 was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of EUR 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. 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).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Seeking Martyrdom (variation #1) von Shirin Neshat wurde im November 2021 in der Auktion 20th/21st Century: Amsterdam bei Christies in Amsterdam versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von EUR 5.000,00 entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von EUR 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. 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).
