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.
