A top price for Maher Raief

In October 2019 Sothebys in London held the auction 20th Century Art / Middle East, which included this untitled work by Maher Raief. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 18,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 20,000.00 (€ 23,198.57). With this result, this work without title is even the most expensive work of art by Maher Raief that we have observed at auctions so far.
