Upper estimate price exceeded by 39 %.

The work Untitled (Men at Campfire) by Krishna Hawlaji Ara was sold in the Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art auction at Sothebys in London in October 2021. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 6,930.00 (€ 8,210.18), 39% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Krishna Hawlaji Ara achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work without title in March 2006 with an auction result of USD 240,000.00 (€ 197,709.86).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 39 % übertroffen

Die Arbeit Untitled (Men at Campfire) von Krishna Hawlaji Ara wurde im Oktober 2021 in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art bei Sothebys in London versteigert. Das »Bietergefecht« endete beim Preis von GBP 6.930,00 (€ 8.210,18) und damit 39% über dem oberen Schätzpreis. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Krishna Hawlaji Ara erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit ohne Titel im März 2006 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 240.000,00 (€ 197.709,86).
