The work A Man Fleeing From A Six-Legged Monster by George Dance The Younger was sold in the Old Master Paintings auction at Bonhams in October 2021. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 1,785.00 (€ 2,114.74), 19% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by George Dance The Younger - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work "The Nobodies", which sold at auction in January last year for USD 5,292.00 (€ 4,719.94).
