Auction result well in line with expectations
The work The Last Chapter by Rameshwar Broota was auctioned at Christies in New York in September 2020. The price achieved of USD 287,500.00 (€ 245,349.04) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 250,000.00 – 350,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Rameshwar Broota - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Numbers, which sold at auction in May 2006 for USD 912,000.00 (€ 710,667.81).
