Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work The Horseman (Abstraction No. 1) by Saadi Al-Kaabi was auctioned at Bonhams in London in November this year. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 5,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 5,120.00 (€ 5,932.97). Admittedly, works by Saadi Al-Kaabi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Childrens Games in June 2021 with an auction result of GBP 22,750.00 (€ 26,509.66).
