This artwork by Lara Baladi achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Dubai in April 2012. In the Modern and Contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish Art Part II auction, the work Roba Vecchia sold for USD 52,500.00 (€ 39,685.54) - well above the upper estimate of USD 30,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Lara Baladi; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Sandouk El-Dounia sold at auction in October 2008 with the realized price of USD 98,500.00 (€ 77,669.14).
