Sotheby’s is unfurling a comprehensive sale of Indian modern and contemporary art in London in early May. The auction sports an overall estimate of around £2.4 million and will see some 120 lots go under the hammer.
This sale follows the New York auction in March, spurred by the “ever-growing interest in and rising profile of Indian art on the international stage.”
The selection of works will trace the course of Indian art over the past century encompassing important works by key figures of the modern Indian art movement such as FN Souza and Akbar Padamsee through to cutting-edge contemporary names like Subodh Gupta, Bharti Kher and Jitish Kallat.
The sale will also feature 11 rare works from the exquisite collection of William and Mildred Archer, two remarkable scholars who played a crucial role in bringing Indian art to the vanguard in this field. The Archer collection includes paintings by Rabindranath Tagore, Jamini Roy, George Keyt and Avinash Chandra.
