Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Iraqiuntitled by Mahmoud Obaidi was sold in the 20th Century Art / Middle East auction at Sothebys in London in April 2018. The price achieved of GBP 9,375.00 (€ 10,677.13) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. Admittedly, works by Mahmoud Obaidi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Farewell Kiss in October 2014 with an auction result of USD 62,500.00 (€ 49,880.29).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Iraqiuntitled von Mahmoud Obaidi wurde im April 2018 in der Auktion 20th Century Art / Middle East bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 9.375,00 (€ 10.677,13) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Mahmoud Obaidi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Farewell Kiss im Oktober 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 62.500,00 (€ 49.880,29).
