The work Owl by Adam Henein was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art including On The Banks of the NileA Journey Through Egyptian Art auction at Bonhams in London in May last year. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 69,600.00 (€ 81,877.77), 39% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Adam Henein - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Om Kalthoum, which sold at auction in November last year for GBP 189,300.00 (€ 219,355.48).
