The work Zat Al Thawb Al Ahmar (Woman with Red Dress) by Louay Kayyali was sold in the Middle Eastern Modern & Contemporary Art auction at Christies in Dubai in March 2019. The »bidding war« ended at USD 118,750.00 (€ 105,762.38), 70% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Louay Kayyali; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The Cake (Kaak) Seller sold at auction in June 2020 with the realized price of GBP 137,562.00 (€ 151,500.70).
