Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
In November 2019 Sothebys in Mumbai held the auction Boundless: India, which included the work The Hooded Day by Jehangir Sabavala. Here, the upper estimate of INR 20,000,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for INR 22,500,000.00 (€ 283,827.93). Admittedly, works by Jehangir Sabavala have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work The Embarkation in September 2021 with an auction result of USD 1,590,000.00 (€ 1,373,412.80).
