The Art of Nandalal Bose, Abanindranath Tagore and Rabindranath Tagore: The Supratik Bose Collection

Hugo Weihe, International Director of Asian Art and International Specialist Head, South Asian Modern + Contemporary Art Department, New York, said: “The sale of The Art of Nadalal Bose, Abanindranath Tagore, and Rabindranath Tagore marked an incredible chapter for Indian modernism. We were gratified by the global attention this collection garnered, which resulted in a sell-through rate of 99% by value, with the remaining three lots selling immediately after the sale.  We will always be deeply honored to have been entrusted by Supratik Bose to handle this extraordinary collection.”

“Well over four decades ago when I brought the collection from India very few in America knew about the art of Nandalal Bose, Abanindranath Tagore, and Rabindranath Tagore,” said Supratik Bose.  “I am very pleased that after today's auction at Christie's they are far better known internationally.”
