This artwork by Baiju Parthan achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in March 2007. In the Modern and Contemporary Indian Art auction, the work Archeology - House of Spice sold for USD 54,000.00 (€ 40,376.85) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Baiju Parthan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Archeology - Arrival at Lancashire, which sold at auction in March 2008 for USD 169,000.00 (€ 106,928.19).
