This artwork by J. Sultan Ali achieved an unexpectedly high price at Bonhams in October 2021. In the Modern and Contemporary South Asian Art auction, the work Untitled (Adivasis) sold for GBP 15,250.00 (€ 18,067.13) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 7,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by J. Sultan Ali - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Vanraj-Nandi, which sold at auction in March 2021 for USD 47,880.00 (€ 40,773.23).
