Auction result well in line with expectations

In August last year Bonhams in London held the auction Modern & Contemporary African Art Online, which included the work Untitled (framed) by Maurice Mbikayi. The price achieved of GBP 2,550.00 (€ 2,950.80) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 2,000.00 – 3,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Maurice Mbikayi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Guardian 1 (2017), which sold at auction in October 2018 for GBP 5,625.00 (€ 6,343.26).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im August letzten Jahres führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Modern & Contemporary African Art Online durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (framed) von Maurice Mbikayi zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 2.550,00 (€ 2.950,80) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Maurice Mbikayi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Guardian 1 (2017) beobachtet, die im Oktober 2018 für GBP 5.625,00 (€ 6.343,26) versteigert wurde.
