The work Untitled (Man in Turban) by Kattingeri Krishna Hebbar was worth GBP 43,750.00 (€ 57,089.13) to a buyer in May 2016. This price was achieved in the auction South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 12,000.00 many times over.
