This artwork by Bita Vakili achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Dubai in October 2011. In the Modern and Contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish ArtPart II auction, the work without title sold for USD 35,000.00 (€ 25,095.00) - well above the upper estimate of USD 20,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Bita Vakili; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Dreaming New York sold at auction in April 2012 with the realized price of USD 45,000.00 (€ 34,016.18).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 75 % übertroffen
