This artwork by Marwa Adel achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Dubai in October 2012. In the Modern and Contemporary Arab, Iranian and Turkish Art Part II auction, the work Hope sold for USD 8,125.00 (€ 6,270.26) - well above the upper estimate of USD 4,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Marwa Adel; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot without title sold at auction in October 2011 with the realized price of USD 15,000.00 (€ 10,755.00).
