Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Shirin (From The Fairytale Icons Series) by Afsoon was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish Art Part II auction at Christies in Dubai in October 2012. Here, the upper estimate of USD 4,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 4,375.00 (€ 3,376.29).
