Auction result misses estimated price range
In April 2017 a collector was able to acquire the work Egyptian navire Du Désert (Desert Boat) by Mohammed Omar Khalil for GBP 16,250.00 (€ 19,297.15). This price was achieved in the auction 20th Century Art/ Middle East at Sothebys in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 17,000.00 – 23,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mohammed Omar Khalil - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work East + West, New York, which sold at auction in October 2007 for USD 63,400.00 (€ 43,820.85).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im April 2017 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Egyptian navire Du Désert (Desert Boat) von Mohammed Omar Khalil für GBP 16.250,00 (€ 19.297,15) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion 20th Century Art/ Middle East bei Sothebys in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 17.000,00 – 23.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Mohammed Omar Khalil mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit East + West, New York beobachtet, die im Oktober 2007 für USD 63.400,00 (€ 43.820,85) versteigert wurde.
