In May 2007 Christies in London held the auction Modern and Contemporary Indian Art Including Art from Pakistan and Sri Lanka, which included the work Expedition - I (Sourcing Lempicka) by Baiju Parthan. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 19,200.00 (€ 28,254.10), 28% above the upper estimate. 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).
Oberer Schätzpreis um 28 % übertroffen
Im Mai 2007 führte Christies in London die Auktion Modern and Contemporary Indian Art Including Art from Pakistan and Sri Lanka durch, in der auch die Arbeit Expedition - I (Sourcing Lempicka) von Baiju Parthan zur Versteigerung kam. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 19.200,00 (€ 28.254,10) und damit 28% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Für andere Arbeiten von Baiju Parthan mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Archeology - Arrival at Lancashire beobachtet, die im März 2008 für USD 169.000,00 (€ 106.928,19) versteigert wurde.
