Sold at the upper estimate price
In March 2015 Christies in Dubai held the auction Modern & Contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish Art, which included the work The Letter 'Ha' in a Nashki Variety by Ali Omar Ermes. The auction ended at the price of USD 20,000.00 (€ 18,620.24), which exactly corresponded to the upper end of the estimated price range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Admittedly, works by Ali Omar Ermes have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Sixth Ode in March 2014 with an auction result of USD 195,750.00 (€ 142,084.63).
Zuschlag beim oberen Schätzpreis
Im März 2015 führte Christies in Dubai die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit The Letter 'Ha' in a Nashki Variety von Ali Omar Ermes zur Versteigerung kam. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 20.000,00 (€ 18.620,24) entsprach exakt dem oberen Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Ali Omar Ermes auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit The Sixth Ode im März 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 195.750,00 (€ 142.084,63).
