A top price for Mostafa Ahmed
In November last year Bonhams in London held the auction Modern and Contemporary Middle Eastern Art including Baghdadiyat Part IIIThe Finale, which included the work The Labourers by Mostafa Ahmed. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 12,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 12,112.50 (€ 14,035.62). With this result, The Labourers is even the most expensive work of art by Mostafa Ahmed that we have observed at auctions so far.
