Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Flowers That Sing The Dreams of The Earth by Ahmed Moustafa was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in October 2012. The result of USD 25,000.00 (€ 19,293.10) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 25,000.00 – 30,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Ahmed Moustafa achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work The Night Journey And Ascension in December 2010 with an auction result of USD 842,500.00 (€ 634,938.58).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Flowers That Sing The Dreams of The Earth von Ahmed Moustafa kam im Oktober 2012 bei Christies in Dubai zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 25.000,00 (€ 19.293,10) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 25.000,00 – 30.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Ahmed Moustafa erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit The Night Journey And Ascension im Dezember 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 842.500,00 (€ 634.938,58).
