A top price for Tyeb Mehta - as previously expected

The work Durga Mahisasura Mardini by Tyeb Mehta was sold in the Boundless: India auction at Sothebys in Mumbai in November 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of INR 200,000,000.00 – 300,000,000.00, the actual price achieved of INR 204,875,000.00 (€ 2,587,399.54) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Durga Mahisasura Mardini is the most expensive artwork by Tyeb Mehta that we have observed at auctions so far.

Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage

Die Arbeit Durga Mahisasura Mardini von Tyeb Mehta wurde im November 2018 in der Auktion Boundless: India bei Sothebys in Mumbai versteigert. Der Schätzpreis für das Kunstwerk wurde von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit einer Spanne von INR 200.000.000,00 – 300.000.000,00 angegeben, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis von INR 204.875.000,00 (€ 2.587.399,54) konnte den unteren Schätzpreis somit knapp übertreffen. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist Durga Mahisasura Mardini das teuerste Kunstwerk von Tyeb Mehta, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
