Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Civil Woman by Mahmoud Mokhtar was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in March 2014. It changed hands for a price of USD 75,000.00 (€ 54,438.56) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 60,000.00 – 80,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mahmoud Mokhtar achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Egyptian au Bord Du Nil (Ala Shat Elnil / On The Banks Of The Nile) in April 2016 with an auction result of GBP 725,000.00 (€ 926,765.58).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Civil Woman von Mahmoud Mokhtar kam im März 2014 bei Christies in Dubai zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 75.000,00 (€ 54.438,56) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 60.000,00 – 80.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mahmoud Mokhtar erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Egyptian au Bord Du Nil (Ala Shat Elnil / On The Banks Of The Nile) im April 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 725.000,00 (€ 926.765,58).
