This artwork by Patrick Akpojotor achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in November 2021. In the Contemporary Curated auction, the work Fela Anikulapo sold for GBP 25,200.00 (€ 29,587.17) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 9,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Patrick Akpojotor; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Everyday Hero I sold at auction in March 2021 with the realized price of GBP 32,500.00 (€ 38,179.13).
