Auction result well in line with expectations

In October 2020 Sothebys in London held the auction 20th Century Art / Middle East, which included this untitled work by Hussein Bicar. The price achieved of GBP 30,240.00 (€ 33,578.94) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 25,000.00 – 35,000.00. Admittedly, works by Hussein Bicar have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Harvest I in October 2016 with an auction result of USD 247,500.00 (€ 225,779.97).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im Oktober 2020 führte Sothebys in London die Auktion 20th Century Art / Middle East durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Hussein Bicar zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 30.240,00 (€ 33.578,94) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 25.000,00 – 35.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Hussein Bicar auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Harvest I im Oktober 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 247.500,00 (€ 225.779,97).
