Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Untitled (Red Ochre Brown) by Anwar Jalal Shemza was sold in the Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2020. The price achieved of USD 56,250.00 (€ 51,001.90) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 50,000.00 – 70,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Anwar Jalal Shemza - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work City Wall, which sold at auction in September 2021 for USD 231,250.00 (€ 199,749.50).
