Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work Leili And Majnoon by Sadegh Tabrizi was auctioned at Sothebys in London in October 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 4,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 15,120.00 (€ 16,789.47). Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Sadegh Tabrizi; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot without title sold at auction in December 2010 with the realized price of USD 28,750.00 (€ 21,667.04).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit Leili And Majnoon von Sadegh Tabrizi im Oktober 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 4.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 15.120,00 (€ 16.789,47) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Trotz des guten Ergebnisses ist dies nicht der höchste Zuschlag für ein Kunstwerk von Sadegh Tabrizi; den erzielte unter den von uns beobachteten Auktionen die Arbeit ohne Titel im Dezember 2010 mit dem Hammerpreis von USD 28.750,00 (€ 21.667,04).
