Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Parlemen (Parliament) by Saftari was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings auction at Sothebys in Hong Kong in October 2008. The price achieved of HKD 87,500.00 (€ 8,900.41) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 75,000.00 – 95,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Saftari - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Negeri Yang Rawan (Precarious Country), which sold at auction in October 2008 for HKD 187,500.00 (€ 19,072.31).
