About Victor Egan Amrita SherGil Portrait Painting
Modern Indian painter Amrita Sher-Gil's rare portrait of her husband Victor Egan fetched a whopping price of ₹ 10.86 crore (approx) at AstaGuru's recent "Modern Indian Art" online sale, the auction house said in a statement. Having witnessed "impressive bidding", the artwork was eventually purchased by renowned art collector Manoj Israni. It was the highest price achieved in the sale. According to AstaGuru, the portrait showcasing Egan, a Hungarian army doctor in his uniform, garnered noticeable traction since the theme intertwined with the artist's personal life and had emotional sentiments attached to it. "They shared a spiritual bond, which inspired her to capture his presence in glory," the auction house said. The painting was created as a parting gift to her husband's family, after the couple decided to shift base from Hungary to India in 1939, and then to Lahore in 1941. About the Framed Prints
