The work Ira by Thaweesak Srithongdee was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Southeast Asian Paintings auction at Sothebys in Singapore in April 2007. The »bidding war« ended at SGD 7,800.00 (€ 3,757.25), 56% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Thaweesak Srithongdee - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work without title, which sold at auction in April 2012 for HKD 87,500.00 (€ 8,525.78).
