A top price for Mohammed Sabry - as previously expected
The work Nile in Luxor by Mohammed Sabry was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in March 2015. It changed hands for a price of USD 18,750.00 (€ 17,456.48) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Nile in Luxor is the most expensive artwork by Mohammed Sabry that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Nile in Luxor von Mohammed Sabry kam im März 2015 bei Christies in Dubai zur Auktion. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von USD 18.750,00 (€ 17.456,48) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Nile in Luxor das teuerste Kunstwerk von Mohammed Sabry, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
