Auction result misses estimated price range
In December 2019 a collector was able to acquire this work without title by Mohammed Ismail for GBP 1,275.00 (€ 1,506.90). This price was achieved in the auction Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art Online Sale at Bonhams in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 4,000.00 – 6,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mohammed Ismail achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in March 2014 with an auction result of USD 37,500.00 (€ 27,219.28).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Dezember 2019 konnte ein Sammler diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Mohammed Ismail für GBP 1.275,00 (€ 1.506,90) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art Online Sale bei Bonhams in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 4.000,00 – 6.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mohammed Ismail erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im März 2014 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 37.500,00 (€ 27.219,28).
