Sold at the lower estimate price
The work Profile Portrait by Mohannad Orabi was auctioned at Christies in Dubai in April 2013. The result of USD 15,000.00 (€ 11,391.25) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 15,000.00 – 20,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Mohannad Orabi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work It Is No Longer About Me, which sold at auction in October 2011 for USD 52,500.00 (€ 37,642.50).
Zuschlag beim unteren Schätzpreis
Die Arbeit Profile Portrait von Mohannad Orabi kam im April 2013 bei Christies in Dubai zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 15.000,00 (€ 11.391,25) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 15.000,00 – 20.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Mohannad Orabi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit It Is No Longer About Me beobachtet, die im Oktober 2011 für USD 52.500,00 (€ 37.642,50) versteigert wurde.
