A top price for Jean-Baptiste Deshays - as previously expected
The work A Young Woman, Said To Be Madame Deshays, Turning Towards The Viewer And Holding A Book by Jean-Baptiste Deshays was sold in the Master Paintings and Sculpture Day Sale auction at Sothebys in New York in February 2018. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of USD 40,000.00 – 60,000.00, the actual price achieved of USD 43,750.00 (€ 35,828.35) could thus just exceed the lower estimate. Even if this result could not surprise positively, A Young Woman, Said To Be Madame Deshays, Turning Towards The Viewer And Holding A Book is the most expensive artwork by Jean-Baptiste Deshays that we have observed at auctions so far.
