Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Untitled (Kinshasa) by Monsengwo Kejwamfi was sold in the Modern and Contemporary African Art auction at Sothebys in London in October 2021. The price achieved of GBP 10,080.00 (€ 11,942.08) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 8,000.00 – 12,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Monsengwo Kejwamfi - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Sans Titre - 1987, which sold at auction in December 2017 for EUR 28,600.00.
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Untitled (Kinshasa) von Monsengwo Kejwamfi wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary African Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 10.080,00 (€ 11.942,08) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 8.000,00 – 12.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Monsengwo Kejwamfi mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Sans Titre - 1987 beobachtet, die im Dezember 2017 für EUR 28.600,00 versteigert wurde.
