Auction result well in line with expectations
In September 2012 Sothebys in New York held the auction Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art, which included the work Better Half by Aisha Khalid. The price achieved of USD 15,000.00 (€ 11,667.70) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Aisha Khalid - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Pattern to Follow, which sold at auction in June 2019 for GBP 25,000.00 (€ 28,103.71).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im September 2012 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Better Half von Aisha Khalid zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 15.000,00 (€ 11.667,70) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Aisha Khalid mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Pattern to Follow beobachtet, die im Juni 2019 für GBP 25.000,00 (€ 28.103,71) versteigert wurde.
