This artwork by Mohammed Ghani Hikmat achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in London in November this year. In the Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art auction, the work The Tree of Life sold for GBP 12,160.00 (€ 14,090.80) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mohammed Ghani Hikmat - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Family, which sold at auction in November this year for GBP 32,000.00 (€ 37,081.04).
