Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Siah Masgh (The Practice Of Calligraphy) by Nasrollah Afjehei was sold in the Contemporary Art / Arab & Iranian auction at Sothebys in London in October 2011. The price achieved of GBP 55,250.00 (€ 63,941.37) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 50,000.00 – 60,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nasrollah Afjehei - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Wave, which sold at auction in April 2011 for USD 218,500.00 (€ 147,425.95).
