This artwork by Pierre Brébiette achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in January 2007. In the Old Master Drawings auction, the work A seated woman, partially dressed and wearing a turban, seen half-length in profile to the right sold for USD 45,600.00 (€ 35,082.32) - well above the upper estimate of USD 25,000.00.
