Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Lebanese reclining Nude by Aref El Rayess was auctioned at Sothebys in London in April 2017.

Admittedly, works by Aref El Rayess have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Jeddah (Al Shatek el Hadi) (The Calm Shore) in March 2015 with an auction result of USD 137,000.00 (€ 127,548.65).
