This artwork by Nasser Chaura achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Dubai in October 2007. In the International Modern and Contemporary Art auction, the work without title sold for USD 32,200.00 (€ 22,256.01) - well above the upper estimate of USD 15,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Nasser Chaura; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Landscape sold at auction in October 2018 with the realized price of GBP 22,500.00 (€ 25,373.06).
