Upper estimate price exceeded by 43 %.
The work Untitled (Vase With Red Flowers) by Krishna Hawlaji Ara was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in March 2017. It achieved a price of USD 10,000.00 (€ 9,347.54), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 43%. 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).
