Title:

The Ultimate Collection – Indian & Southeast Asian Modern Masterpieces

Description:
Assets Located Across the United Arab Emirates and Melbourne, Australia

Lloyds Auctions is proud to present an exclusive Expression of Interest campaign for one of the most significant private collections of modern Indian art to be offered in recent decades.

This remarkable collection comprises museum-quality masterpieces by some of the most celebrated artists of the twentieth century, including V.S. Gaitonde, S.H. Raza, F.N. Souza, Maqbool Fida Husain, and other internationally acclaimed masters. Each work has been selected for its artistic significance, historical importance, and exceptional quality.

For the first time in a generation, this distinguished collection is being made available to collectors, institutions, museums, and investors worldwide. Many of the works have remained in private ownership for decades, with several never before offered to the public.

All artworks are fresh to the market and are supported by impeccable provenance, comprehensive condition reports, and, where applicable, advanced technical analysis and the highest standard of scholarly authentication.

Interested parties are invited to submit confidential Expressions of Interest throughout the campaign period. Private inspections can be arranged by appointment for qualified buyers, with works located across the United Arab Emirates and Melbourne, Australia. International buyers are welcome, and Lloyds Auctions will facilitate inspections and discussions with genuine purchasers worldwide.

This is an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire works from one of the most important private collections of modern Indian art assembled in recent history. Whether acquiring a single masterpiece or the entire collection, this campaign offers collectors and institutions access to artworks that seldom become available on the open market.

Expressions of Interest are now being accepted. We encourage interested parties to register their interest early to receive detailed catalogues, condition reports, and inspection opportunities.
