Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Rashid Rana achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in February 2009. In the Contemporary Evening Sale auction, the work Veil Iv sold for GBP 313,250.00 (€ 353,179.36) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 150,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Rashid Rana; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Veil #6 sold at auction in July 2008 with the realized price of GBP 325,250.00 (€ 413,233.79).
