Despite a disappointment, a good price for Olayinka Burney-Nicol
In April 2021 a collector was able to acquire the work Mother Africa (1972) by Olayinka Burney-Nicol for GBP 535.50 (€ 615.98). This price was achieved in the auction Modern & Contemporary African Art Online Sale at Bonhams in London and was even below the estimate range of GBP 800.00 – 1,000.00 set by the auction house. Despite this disappointing result, Mother Africa (1972) is the most expensive artwork by Olayinka Burney-Nicol that we have observed at auction so far.
Trotz Enttäuschung ein guter Preis für Olayinka Burney-Nicol
Im April 2021 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Mother Africa (1972) von Olayinka Burney-Nicol für GBP 535,50 (€ 615,98) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary African Art Online Sale bei Bonhams in London erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 800,00 – 1.000,00. Trotz dieses enttäuschenden Ergebnisses ist Mother Africa (1972) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Olayinka Burney-Nicol, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
