Auction result well in line with expectations
In March last year Christies in New York held the auction South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art Including Works from the Collection of Mahinder and Sharad Tak, which included the work The View by Anjum Singh. The price achieved of USD 3,780.00 (€ 3,407.55) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00. Admittedly, works by Anjum Singh have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Zebra Crossing in May 2008 with an auction result of GBP 12,500.00 (€ 15,900.55).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Im März letzten Jahres führte Christies in New York die Auktion South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art Including Works from the Collection of Mahinder and Sharad Tak durch, in der auch die Arbeit The View von Anjum Singh zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 3.780,00 (€ 3.407,55) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00 angegeben worden. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Anjum Singh auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Zebra Crossing im Mai 2008 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von GBP 12.500,00 (€ 15.900,55).
