Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Salah Yousri achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in March 2020. In the 20th Century Art / Middle East auction, the work Cityscape sold for GBP 4,375.00 (€ 4,940.27) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 2,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Salah Yousri - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Le Temps des Labours (The Time of the Labourers), which sold at auction in March last year for GBP 9,450.00 (€ 11,204.04).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Salah Yousri erzielte im März 2020 bei Sothebys in London einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion 20th Century Art / Middle East wurde die Arbeit Cityscape für GBP 4.375,00 (€ 4.940,27) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von GBP 2.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Salah Yousri mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Le Temps des Labours (The Time of the Labourers) beobachtet, die im März letzten Jahres für GBP 9.450,00 (€ 11.204,04) versteigert wurde.
