Auction result well in line with expectations
The work North Gate of Baghdad by Simon Norfolk was sold in the ULTIMATE Evening & Photographs Day Sales auction at Phillips in London in May 2018. It changed hands for a price of GBP 6,875.00 (€ 7,828.78) achieving a result in the upper range of the estimate price range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Simon Norfolk - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Former Teahouse in a park next to the Afghan Exhibition of Economic and Social Achievements in the Shah Shahid district of Kabul, which sold at auction in November 2008 for GBP 13,750.00 (€ 16,624.78).
