Upper estimate price exceeded by 28 %.
The work Dove by Mahmoud Moussa was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art including Baghdadiyat Part IIIThe Finale auction at Bonhams in London in November last year. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 12,750.00 (€ 14,774.34), 28% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mahmoud Moussa - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Egyptian Woman, which sold at auction in March 2016 for USD 52,500.00 (€ 46,093.06).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
