A top price for Abir Karmakar - as previously expected
The work In The Old Fashioned Way 2 by Abir Karmakar was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in July 2007. The result of USD 12,000.00 (€ 8,752.10) was exactly at the lower end of the estimate range of USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, In The Old Fashioned Way 2 is the most expensive artwork by Abir Karmakar that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit In The Old Fashioned Way 2 von Abir Karmakar kam im Juli 2007 bei Sothebys in New York zur Auktion. Das dabei erzielte Ergebnis von USD 12.000,00 (€ 8.752,10) entsprach exakt dem unteren Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von USD 12.000,00 – 18.000,00. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist In The Old Fashioned Way 2 das teuerste Kunstwerk von Abir Karmakar, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
