Mohammed Naghi Bey (1888-1956)
Egyptian women and child with pestle and mortar
signed 'Naghi' (lower right)
coloured chalk and watercolour
8 x 12 in. (20.3 x 30.5 cm.)

Auction result well in line with expectations

The work Egyptian women and child with pestle and mortar by Mohammed Naghi was sold in the Christie's Interiors auction at Christies in London in October 2014. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 200.00 – 400.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 250.00 (€ 319.21) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Mohammed Naghi achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Grilling Lamb in Cyprus in November this year with an auction result of GBP 30,240.00 (€ 35,041.58).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Die Arbeit Egyptian women and child with pestle and mortar von Mohammed Naghi wurde im Oktober 2014 in der Auktion Christie's Interiors bei Christies in London versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 200,00 – 400,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 250,00 (€ 319,21) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Mohammed Naghi erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Grilling Lamb in Cyprus im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 30.240,00 (€ 35.041,58).
