Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Carpet Merchant by Gustavo Simoni was sold in the British and European Art auction at Christies in London in July 2021. The price achieved of GBP 31,250.00 (€ 36,647.10) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Gustavo Simoni - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Gate Of The Sidi Boumediene Mosque, Tlemcen, which sold at auction in April 2020 for GBP 118,750.00 (€ 136,603.15).
