Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Hut by Abdulrahim Apabhai Almelkar was sold in the Modern and Contemporary South Asian Art auction at Bonhams in London in November this year. The price achieved of GBP 4,096.00 (€ 4,746.37) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Abdulrahim Apabhai Almelkar - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Udaipur Landscape, which sold at auction in March 2015 for USD 17,500.00 (€ 16,292.71).
