A top price for Naim Ismail
When this work without title by Naim Ismail was auctioned at Sothebys in London in March 2020, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 18,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 62,500.00 (€ 70,575.30). This high result makes the work without title the most expensive artwork by Naim Ismail that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis für Naim Ismail
Als die Arbeit ohne Titel von Naim Ismail im März 2020 bei Sothebys in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 18.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 62.500,00 (€ 70.575,30) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Dieses hohe Ergebnis macht das Werk ohne Titel zum teuersten Kunstwerk von Naim Ismail, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
