This work of art by Saadi Al-Kaabi could be acquired at Sothebys in London in October 2018 for an unexpectedly low price. In the 20th Century Art / Middle East auction, the work Iraqial Orta changed hands for GBP 11,875.00 (€ 13,391.34) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Other works by Saadi Al-Kaabi have also sold for higher prices; the highest price we have seen at auction so far was achieved in June 2021 by the work Childrens Games at GBP 22,750.00 (€ 26,509.66).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
