Upper estimate price exceeded by more than 100%
This artwork by Nalini Malani achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Mumbai in December 2013. In the South Asian Art auction, the work Untitled; Endgame sold for INR 562,500.00 (€ 6,613.32) - well above the upper estimate of INR 200,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Nalini Malani achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Manipulating Reality in September 2010 with an auction result of USD 122,500.00 (€ 90,066.91).
Oberer Schätzpreis um mehr als 100% übertroffen
Dieses Kunstwerk von Nalini Malani erzielte im Dezember 2013 bei Christies in Mumbai einen unerwartet hohen Preis. In der Auktion South Asian Art wurde die Arbeit Untitled; Endgame für INR 562.500,00 (€ 6.613,32) versteigert – und damit weit über dem oberen Schätzpreis von INR 200.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Nalini Malani erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Manipulating Reality im September 2010 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 122.500,00 (€ 90.066,91).
