Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In August 2021 Bonhams in London held the auction Middle Eastern Art Online Sale including works from the Saatchi Collection, which included the work Ella Al-Souk (To The Souk) by Omar El-Nagdi. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 40,250.00 (€ 46,891.25), 15% above the upper estimate. Admittedly, works by Omar El-Nagdi have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Le Grand Cavalier in November this year with an auction result of GBP 216,300.00 (€ 250,644.66).
Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen
Im August 2021 führte Bonhams in London die Auktion Middle Eastern Art Online Sale including works from the Saatchi Collection durch, in der auch die Arbeit Ella Al-Souk (To The Souk) von Omar El-Nagdi zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 40.250,00 (€ 46.891,25) und damit 15% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Omar El-Nagdi auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Le Grand Cavalier im November diesen Jahres mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 216.300,00 (€ 250.644,66).
