Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Masks, Un Ballo In Maschera, 2004 by Yinka Shonibare was sold in the Modern & Contemporary African Art auction at Sothebys in London in October 2020. It changed hands for a price of GBP 23,940.00 (€ 26,583.33) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 18,000.00 – 24,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yinka Shonibare achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Red Lantern Kid in December 2018 with an auction result of USD 325,000.00 (€ 283,694.13).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Masks, Un Ballo In Maschera, 2004 von Yinka Shonibare wurde im Oktober 2020 in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary African Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 23.940,00 (€ 26.583,33) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 18.000,00 – 24.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yinka Shonibare erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Red Lantern Kid im Dezember 2018 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 325.000,00 (€ 283.694,13).
