Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Inspired by a Poem by Suad Al Attar was auctioned at Bonhams in London in November last year. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 5,000.00 – 7,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 5,355.00 (€ 6,205.22) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Suad Al Attar achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Sunset on Salam City in May this year with an auction result of GBP 70,250.00 (€ 81,736.34).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Inspired by a Poem von Suad Al Attar kam im November letzten Jahres bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von GBP 5.000,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von GBP 5.355,00 (€ 6.205,22) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Suad Al Attar erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Sunset on Salam City im Mai diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 70.250,00 (€ 81.736,34).
