Auction result misses estimated price range
This work of art by Ramesh Sharma could be acquired at Christies in London in May 2001 for an unexpectedly low price. In the Islamic & Indian Works of Art auction, the work Loving Couple changed hands for GBP 493.50 (€ 827.36) - missing the lower end of the estimate range of GBP 500.00 – 800.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Ramesh Sharma - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Deers head axe, which sold at auction in October 2001 for GBP 1,175.00 (€ 1,898.97).
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Dieses Kunstwerk von Ramesh Sharma konnte im Mai 2001 bei Christies in London für einen unerwartet niedrigen Preis ersteigert werden. In der Auktion Islamic & Indian Works of Art wechselte die Arbeit Loving Couple für GBP 493,50 (€ 827,36) den Besitzer – und verfehlte damit das untere Ende der Schätzpreisspanne von GBP 500,00 – 800,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Ramesh Sharma mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit Deers head axe beobachtet, die im Oktober 2001 für GBP 1.175,00 (€ 1.898,97) versteigert wurde.
