Auction result misses estimated price range
In March 2019 a collector was able to acquire the work Dream Of A Neon Epigram by Runa Islam for GBP 4,750.00 (€ 5,513.18). This price was achieved in the auction Contemporary Art Day Auction at Sothebys in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 6,000.00 – 8,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Runa Islam - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Utterlies/Butterflies, which sold at auction in February 2007 for GBP 9,600.00 (€ 14,231.66).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im März 2019 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Dream Of A Neon Epigram von Runa Islam für GBP 4.750,00 (€ 5.513,18) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Contemporary Art Day Auction bei Sothebys in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 6.000,00 – 8.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Runa Islam mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Utterlies/Butterflies beobachtet, die im Februar 2007 für GBP 9.600,00 (€ 14.231,66) versteigert wurde.
