A top price for Pushpamala N. - as previously expected
The work Phantom Lady or Kismet: A Photo-Romance by Pushpamala N. was auctioned at Christies in New York in September last year. The price achieved of USD 37,800.00 (€ 38,638.45) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 30,000.00 – 50,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Phantom Lady or Kismet: A Photo-Romance is the most expensive artwork by Pushpamala N. that we have observed at auctions so far.
