Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work 'Dimashq Kanz Al-Ruh' (Damascus Treasure of the Soul) by Mahmoud Hammad was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in October 2010. Here, the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 27,500.00 (€ 19,792.72). Admittedly, works by Mahmoud Hammad have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Lika'a Bnafasaji Asrak bi Khamsat Awkat (Rythme bleu - mauve en 5 temps) in October 2014 with an auction result of USD 118,750.00 (€ 94,772.55).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit 'Dimashq Kanz Al-Ruh' (Damascus Treasure of the Soul) von Mahmoud Hammad kam im Oktober 2010 bei Christies in Dubai zur Auktion. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 25.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 27.500,00 (€ 19.792,72) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Mahmoud Hammad auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Lika'a Bnafasaji Asrak bi Khamsat Awkat (Rythme bleu - mauve en 5 temps) im Oktober 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 118.750,00 (€ 94.772,55).
