A top price for Sam Joseph Ntiro - as previously expected
The work Chagga Family Feeding by Sam Joseph Ntiro was sold in the Modern & Contemporary African Art | and CCA Lagos Benefit Auction auction at Sothebys in London in March last year. The price achieved of GBP 12,600.00 (€ 14,938.72) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Chagga Family Feeding is the most expensive artwork by Sam Joseph Ntiro that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Chagga Family Feeding von Sam Joseph Ntiro wurde im März letzten Jahres in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary African Art | and CCA Lagos Benefit Auction bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 12.600,00 (€ 14.938,72) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Chagga Family Feeding das teuerste Kunstwerk von Sam Joseph Ntiro, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
