A top price for Benode Behari Mukherjee
In March 2021 Christies in New York held the auction South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art Including Works by Benodebehari Mukherjee from the Mrinalini Mukherjee Foundation, which included the work Frying Fish by Benode Behari Mukherjee. The »bidding war« ended at USD 70,000.00 (€ 59,609.98), 40% above the upper estimate. With this result, Frying Fish is even the most expensive work of art by Benode Behari Mukherjee that we have observed at auctions so far.

Mit diesem Ergebnis ist Frying Fish sogar das teuerste Kunstwerk von Benode Behari Mukherjee, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
