Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Unveiling by Hassan Hajjaj was sold in the 20th Century Art / Middle East auction at Sothebys in London in October 2019. Here, the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for GBP 8,750.00 (€ 10,149.37). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hassan Hajjaj - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Master Cobra Mansa, which sold at auction in May this year for USD 32,760.00 (€ 30,749.01).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Die Arbeit Unveiling von Hassan Hajjaj wurde im Oktober 2019 in der Auktion 20th Century Art / Middle East bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von GBP 8.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für GBP 8.750,00 (€ 10.149,37) einen neuen Besitzer. Für andere Arbeiten von Hassan Hajjaj mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Master Cobra Mansa beobachtet, die im Mai diesen Jahres für USD 32.760,00 (€ 30.749,01) versteigert wurde.
