The work Christ Carrying the Cross (recto & verso) by Juan de Valdés Leal was worth GBP 47,880.00 (€ 56,149.23) to a buyer in July 2021. This price was achieved in the auction Old Master & British Works on Paper at Sothebys in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Juan de Valdés Leal - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work The Visitation, which sold at auction in January 2009 for USD 182,500.00 (€ 142,533.58).
