Led by £10.2m cheetah miniature, Aga Khan collection breaks all-time record for South Asian art sale

A single-owner sale of 95 lots from the collection of Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan at Christie's London achieved £45.8m ($61m), shattering the presale estimate of 'in excess of £8m' and setting a new all-time record for any South Asian art sale. The top lot, Basawan's miniature *A Family of Cheetahs in a Rocky Landscape* (circa 1575-80), sold for £10.2m ($13.6m), becoming the most expensive classical Indian or Islamic painting at auction. The sale also featured eight works from the Fraser Album, which together made £6.2m, and a portrait by Dust Muhammad that fetched £2.7m.
