This artwork by Charles-Louis Clérisseau achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in January 2013. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work A Capriccio Of Classical Ruins With Peasants In The Foreground sold for USD 40,625.00 (€ 29,906.51) - well above the upper estimate of USD 22,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Charles-Louis Clérisseau - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Interiors of a Roman basilica with figures, which sold at auction in December 2010 for GBP 51,650.00 (€ 59,913.84).
