Auction result well in line with expectations
In November 2020 Christies in London held the auction Modern & Contemporary Middle Eastern Art, which included the work Rêve by Safwan Dahoul. It changed hands for a price of GBP 68,750.00 (€ 76,748.20) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Safwan Dahoul - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Rêve, which sold at auction in October 2014 for USD 257,000.00 (€ 205,107.74).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im November 2020 führte Christies in London die Auktion Modern & Contemporary Middle Eastern Art durch, in der auch die Arbeit Rêve von Safwan Dahoul zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wechselte sie für einen Preis von GBP 68.750,00 (€ 76.748,20) den Besitzer und erzielte damit ein Ergebnis im oberen Bereich der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 50.000,00 – 70.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Safwan Dahoul mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Rêve beobachtet, die im Oktober 2014 für USD 257.000,00 (€ 205.107,74) versteigert wurde.
