Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Face by Abdulrahim Sharif was sold in the Contemporary Art / Arab & Iranian auction at Sothebys in London in October 2011. The result of GBP 15,000.00 (€ 17,359.65) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 15,000.00 – 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Abdulrahim Sharif - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Triptych, which sold at auction in October 2007 for USD 67,000.00 (€ 46,309.10).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Face von Abdulrahim Sharif wurde im Oktober 2011 in der Auktion Contemporary Art / Arab & Iranian bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von GBP 15.000,00 (€ 17.359,65) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 15.000,00 – 25.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Abdulrahim Sharif mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Triptych beobachtet, die im Oktober 2007 für USD 67.000,00 (€ 46.309,10) versteigert wurde.
