The work 'Ethiopie – Portrait Vi' by Jean-Baptiste Huynh was sold in the A Beautiful Life: Photographs from the Collection of Leland Hirsch auction at Sothebys in New York in April 2018. The »bidding war« ended at USD 22,500.00 (€ 18,635.08), 50% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Jean-Baptiste Huynh - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Mali - Portrait Xxiv, which sold at auction in February 2008 for GBP 38,900.00 (€ 50,879.67).
