Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Elizabeth Taylor, Vienna by Firooz Zahedi was auctioned at Phillips in New York in June 2010, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 2,750.00 (€ 2,237.41). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Firooz Zahedi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Uma/Pulp Fiction, 1994, which sold at auction in October 2008 for USD 10,000.00 (€ 7,885.19).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Elizabeth Taylor, Vienna von Firooz Zahedi im Juni 2010 bei Phillips in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 2.750,00 (€ 2.237,41) den Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Firooz Zahedi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Uma/Pulp Fiction, 1994 beobachtet, die im Oktober 2008 für USD 10.000,00 (€ 7.885,19) versteigert wurde.
