The work A standing male nude, seen in profile, turned to the right by Nicolas Bernard Lépicié was worth GBP 58,850.00 (€ 67,539.18) to a buyer in July 2011. This price was achieved in the auction Old Master & Early British Drawings & Watercolours at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Nicolas Bernard Lépicié - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Louis-Philippe, Duc De Valois, Au Berceau, which sold at auction in September 2015 for EUR 231,000.00.
