A top price for Rabin Mondal - as previously expected
The work Man Acting As King by Rabin Mondal was sold in the Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art auction at Sothebys in New York in March 2015. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 35,000.00 (€ 32,585.42) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Man Acting As King is the most expensive artwork by Rabin Mondal that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit Man Acting As King von Rabin Mondal wurde im März 2015 in der Auktion Modern & Contemporary South Asian Art bei Sothebys in New York versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von USD 30.000,00 – 50.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von USD 35.000,00 (€ 32.585,42) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Man Acting As King das teuerste Kunstwerk von Rabin Mondal, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
