Auction result misses estimated price range

When the work Untitled (Figures with Parrot) by Gurcharan Singh was auctioned at Christies in New York in September last year, the result was somewhat disappointing. The auction house had previously given the estimated price as a range of USD 2,000.00 – 3,000.00, of which not even the lower limit was reached - in fact, the artwork changed hands for USD 1,700.00 (€ 1,737.71). Admittedly, works by Gurcharan Singh have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work without title in March 2007 with an auction result of USD 14,400.00 (€ 10,767.16).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Als die Arbeit Untitled (Figures with Parrot) von Gurcharan Singh im September letzten Jahres bei Christies in New York versteigert wurde, fiel das Ergebnis ein wenig enttäuschend aus. Das Auktionshaus hatte den Schätzpreis zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 2.000,00 – 3.000,00 angegeben, von der nicht einmal die Untergrenze erreicht wurde - tatsächlich wechselte das Kunstwerk für USD 1.700,00 (€ 1.737,71) den Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Gurcharan Singh auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit ohne Titel im März 2007 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 14.400,00 (€ 10.767,16).
