The work No. 224 by Samia Halaby was auctioned at Christies in London in November last year. It achieved a price of GBP 189,000.00 (€ 219,007.85), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 58%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Samia Halaby - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mediterranean #279, which sold at auction in November 2020 for GBP 400,000.00 (€ 446,534.98).
