Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In October 2019 Christies in London held the auction Middle Eastern, Modern and Contemporary Art, which included this untitled work by Tahia Halim. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 28,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 30,000.00 (€ 34,797.85). Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Tahia Halim achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Farhat Al Nuba (The Happiness of Nubia) in March 2015 with an auction result of USD 749,000.00 (€ 697,328.00).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im Oktober 2019 führte Christies in London die Auktion Middle Eastern, Modern and Contemporary Art durch, in der auch diese Arbeit ohne Titel von Tahia Halim zur Versteigerung kam. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 28.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 30.000,00 (€ 34.797,85) einen neuen Besitzer. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Tahia Halim erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Farhat Al Nuba (The Happiness of Nubia) im März 2015 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 749.000,00 (€ 697.328,00).
