Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Two White Horses by Yvette Achkar was sold in the Le Paris du Monde Arabe auction at Bonhams in London in July this year. The price achieved of EUR 5,760.00 was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as EUR 4,500.00 – 7,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Yvette Achkar achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in March 2019 with an auction result of USD 125,000.00 (€ 111,328.82).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Two White Horses von Yvette Achkar wurde im Juli diesen Jahres in der Auktion Le Paris du Monde Arabe bei Bonhams in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von EUR 5.760,00 lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit EUR 4.500,00 – 7.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Yvette Achkar erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im März 2019 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 125.000,00 (€ 111.328,82).
