Upper estimated price slightly exceeded

The work Vasantasena by Raja Ravi Varma was sold in the Modern and Contemporary Indian Art auction at Christies in New York in March 2007. Here, the upper estimate of USD 400,000.00 was slightly exceeded - the artwork found a new owner for USD 420,000.00 (€ 314,042.17). Admittedly, works by Raja Ravi Varma have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work Untitled (Damayanti) in March 2017 with an auction result of USD 1,692,500.00 (€ 1,582,071.42).

Oberer Schätzpreis leicht übertroffen

Die Arbeit Vasantasena von Raja Ravi Varma wurde im März 2007 in der Auktion Modern and Contemporary Indian Art bei Christies in New York versteigert. Dabei wurde der obere Schätzpreis von USD 400.000,00 leicht übertroffen – das Kunstwerk fand für USD 420.000,00 (€ 314.042,17) einen neuen Besitzer. Freilich wurden Arbeiten von Raja Ravi Varma auch schon für ein Vielfaches dieses Preises versteigert – das bisher höchste Ergebnis erzielte nach unseren Aufzeichnungen die Arbeit Untitled (Damayanti) im März 2017 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 1.692.500,00 (€ 1.582.071,42).
