About Manjit Bawa

Born

1941

Died

2008

Nationality

Indian

Manjit Bawa (1941–2008) was an Indian artist best documented as a painter. International authority records from Wikidata, VIAF, Getty ULAN, and the Library of Congress distinguish him as a stable public entity, helping separate his auction records from those of similarly named people. The available biographical sources identify Dhuri in Punjab, India, as his birthplace and describe his practice as figurative painting. Collectors are most likely to encounter his name in connection with paintings and their public auction histories. The evidence collected for this profile does not establish a narrower movement, named series, or recurring subject with institution-grade support, so those details should not be assumed when identifying an object. Reliable appraisal begins with the artist’s established identity and a careful comparison between the submitted work and documented auction records attributed to him.

Figurative artPainting

Common works and media

Painting is the only work type consistently supported by the collected biographical sources, which also characterize Bawa as a figurative painter. Paintings are therefore the safest category for auction and appraisal searches under his name. The present evidence does not support broader claims about common prints, drawings, sculptures, editions, named series, or recurring subjects. Those classifications should be added only when an individual object or a stronger institutional or catalogue source supplies the necessary documentation.

Market and appraisal context

Manjit Bawa has a documented public auction presence, with paintings forming the clearest supported category in the collected evidence. For appraisal purposes, the first task is to confirm that the artist identity attached to an object corresponds to the authority records for the Indian painter who lived from 1941 to 2008. Relevant public auction results can then provide comparison points through their sale dates, realized prices, and lot context when those details are available. This source pack does not substantiate a price trend or detailed conclusions about individual series, subjects, editions, or other market segments, so any valuation should remain tied to verified object information and genuinely comparable lots.

Auction categories and appraisal factors

Common auction categories

  • Paintings

Value drivers

  1. Comparable public auction records associated with the artist
  2. Secure identification of the artist before comparison with auction results
  3. Whether the object is consistent with the documented work type of painting

Appraisal caveats

  • The collected source pack does not provide detailed auction-lot descriptions or evidence sufficient to characterize price trends.
  • No institution-grade source in the collected pack documents specific series, recurring subjects, print editions, or medium variations.
  • An appraisal should not infer authorship or value from the artist name alone.
