Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Meditation On Three Themes From Sura Ya' Sin by Ahmed Moustafa was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in April 2008. Here, the upper estimate of USD 400,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 421,000.00 (€ 270,426.52). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ahmed Moustafa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Night Journey And Ascension, which sold at auction in December 2010 for USD 842,500.00 (€ 634,938.58).
