Despite a disappointment, a good price for John Koenakeefe Mohl

This work of art by John Koenakeefe Mohl could be acquired at Bonhams in London in October 2019 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Modern & Contemporary African Art Online Sale auction, the work Women of Lesotho, carrying firewood in snow changed hands for GBP 3,812.50 (€ 4,422.23) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 5,000.00 – 8,000.00. Despite this disappointing result, Women of Lesotho, carrying firewood in snow is the most expensive artwork by John Koenakeefe Mohl that we have observed at auction so far.

Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für John Koenakeefe Mohl

Dieses Kunstwerk von John Koenakeefe Mohl konnte im Oktober 2019 bei Bonhams in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Modern & Contemporary African Art Online Sale wechselte die Arbeit Women of Lesotho, carrying firewood in snow für GBP 3.812,50 (€ 4.422,23) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 8.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Women of Lesotho, carrying firewood in snow das teuerste Kunstwerk von John Koenakeefe Mohl, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
