This artwork by Cândido Portinari achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in November 2018. In the Impressionist & Modern Art Day Sale auction, the work Baiana Com Crianças (Baiana With Children) sold for USD 362,500.00 (€ 320,144.84) - well above the upper estimate of USD 175,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Cândido Portinari - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Meninos soltando pipas, which sold at auction in May 2013 for USD 1,443,750.00 (€ 1,111,603.02).
