This artwork by Devi Prasad Roy Chowdhury achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in March last year. In the Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art auction, the work Hillscape sold for USD 5,292.00 (€ 4,770.58) - well above the upper estimate of USD 3,000.00.

Dieses Kunstwerk von Devi Prasad Roy Chowdhury erzielte im März letzten Jahres bei Sothebys in New York einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art wurde die Arbeit Hillscape für USD 5.292,00 (€ 4.770,58) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von USD 3.000,00.
