Auction result misses estimated price range
In March 2014 a collector was able to acquire the work Wien by Hafidh al-Droubi for USD 1,875.00 (€ 1,360.96). This price was achieved in the auction Modern & Contemporary Arab, Iranian & Turkish Art Including Masterpieces from The Pharos Art Collection & From The Maath Alousi Collection at Christies in Dubai and was even below the estimate range of USD 5,000.00 – 7,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hafidh al-Droubi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Kadhimain Alley in November 2021 with an auction result of GBP 52,500.00 (€ 61,639.94).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im März 2014 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Wien von Hafidh al-Droubi für USD 1.875,00 (€ 1.360,96) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary Arab, Iranian & Turkish Art Including Masterpieces from The Pharos Art Collection & From The Maath Alousi Collection bei Christies in Dubai erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 5.000,00 – 7.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hafidh al-Droubi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Kadhimain Alley im November 2021 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 52.500,00 (€ 61.639,94).
