Auction result well in line with expectations
The work April 73 by Biren De was auctioned at Sothebys in London in October 2015. The price achieved of GBP 13,750.00 (€ 19,232.82) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 12,000.00 – 15,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Biren De - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work September '73, which sold at auction in October 2018 for GBP 60,000.00 (€ 67,661.49).
