Auction result well in line with expectations
In November last year Bonhams in London held the auction Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art including Baghdadiyat Part IIIThe Finale, which included this untitled work by Hussein Shariffe. The price achieved of GBP 12,750.00 (€ 14,774.34) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hussein Shariffe - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Songlines: For Bruce Chatwin, which sold at auction in October 2019 for GBP 35,000.00 (€ 40,597.49).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art including Baghdadiyat Part IIIThe Finale durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Hussein Shariffe zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 12.750,00 (€ 14.774,34) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Hussein Shariffe mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Songlines: For Bruce Chatwin beobachtet, die im Oktober 2019 für GBP 35.000,00 (€ 40.597,49) versteigert wurde.
