Auction result misses estimated price range

In September 2000 a collector was able to acquire the work Malabar Beauty by Raja Ravi Varma for USD 23,500.00 (€ 26,592.74). This price was achieved in the auction Indian and Southeast Asian including 20th Century at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 25,000.00 – 35,000.00 set by the auction house. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Raja Ravi Varma achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Untitled (Damayanti) in March 2017 with an auction result of USD 1,692,500.00 (€ 1,582,071.42).

Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne

Im September 2000 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Malabar Beauty von Raja Ravi Varma für USD 23.500,00 (€ 26.592,74) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion Indian and Southeast Asian including 20th Century bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 25.000,00 – 35.000,00. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Raja Ravi Varma erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Untitled (Damayanti) im März 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.692.500,00 (€ 1.582.071,42).
