This artwork by Jacques de Lajoue achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in May 2000. In the Old Master Paintings from the Lagerfeld Collection auction, the work Portrait of the artist's son with his teacher, said to be the architect Jean-Baptiste de Courtonne the Younger, in a library sold for USD 88,125.00 (€ 94,473.63) - well above the upper estimate of USD 50,000.00.
