Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price

When the work Untitled (Himalayan Landscape) by Jamini Prakash Gangooly was auctioned at Christies in London in May 2016, the result exceeded expectations many times over. The upper estimate was set at a - in retrospect quite modest - GBP 3,000.00 but the actual price achieved was more than three times as high at GBP 11,250.00 (€ 14,680.06). However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jamini Prakash Gangooly - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Demon in my Dreadful Dream during Delirium, which sold at auction in March 2021 for USD 44,100.00 (€ 37,554.29).

Kunstwerk zum Dreifachen des oberen Schätzpreises versteigert

Als die Arbeit Untitled (Himalayan Landscape) von Jamini Prakash Gangooly im Mai 2016 bei Christies in London versteigert wurde, übertraf das Ergebnis die Erwartungen um ein Vielfaches. Der obere Schätzpreis war mit – rückwirkend betrachtet recht bescheidenen – GBP 3.000,00 angesetzt, der tatsächlich erzielte Preis hingegen war mit GBP 11.250,00 (€ 14.680,06) mehr als dreimal so hoch. Für andere Arbeiten von Jamini Prakash Gangooly mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit The Demon in my Dreadful Dream during Delirium beobachtet, die im März 2021 für USD 44.100,00 (€ 37.554,29) versteigert wurde.
