Upper estimated price slightly exceeded
The work Workers by Meera Mukherjee was auctioned at Christies in Mumbai in December 2016. It achieved a price of INR 6,000,000.00 (€ 83,586.05), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Meera Mukherjee - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Untitled (Mango Orchard), which sold at auction in March last year for USD 226,800.00 (€ 204,453.26).
