Upper estimate price exceeded by 52 %.

In November 2017 Sothebys in Dubai held the auction Boundless: Dubai, which included the work Egyptian maquette De Saad Zaghloul, Cairo And Alexandria (Maquette Of Saad Zaghoul) by Mahmoud Mokhtar. The »bidding war« ended at USD 212,500.00 (€ 178,601.45), 52% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Mahmoud Mokhtar have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved 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).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 52 % übertroffen

Im November 2017 führte Sothebys in Dubai die Auktion Boundless: Dubai durch, in der auch die Arbeit Egyptian maquette De Saad Zaghloul, Cairo And Alexandria (Maquette Of Saad Zaghoul) von Mahmoud Mokhtar zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von USD 212.500,00 (€ 178.601,45) und damit 52% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Mahmoud Mokhtar auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen 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).
