Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Bukhosi I, Parktown from Somnyama Ngonyama by Zanele Muholi was auctioned at Phillips in London in May this year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 9,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 10,160.00 (€ 11,821.23). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Zanele Muholi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Alakhe, which sold at auction in December last year for GBP 35,280.00 (€ 39,827.68).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Bukhosi I, Parktown from Somnyama Ngonyama von Zanele Muholi kam im Mai diesen Jahres bei Phillips in London zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 9.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 10.160,00 (€ 11.821,23) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Zanele Muholi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Alakhe beobachtet, die im Dezember letzten Jahres für GBP 35.280,00 (€ 39.827,68) versteigert wurde.
