Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
When the work A small town market where farmers are selling their produce by Syed Haider Raza was auctioned at Sothebys in London in October 2021, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 12,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 37,800.00 (€ 44,782.79). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Syed Haider Raza achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Tapovan in March 2018 with an auction result of USD 4,452,500.00 (€ 3,614,042.21).
Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert
Als die Arbeit A small town market where farmers are selling their produce von Syed Haider Raza im Oktober 2021 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 12.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 37.800,00 (€ 44.782,79) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Syed Haider Raza erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Tapovan im März 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 4.452.500,00 (€ 3.614.042,21).
