This artwork by Pompeo Batoni achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in July 2019. In the Old Master and British Drawings and Watercolours Including Works from the Collection of Jean Bonna auction, the work Studies of a child, standing and kneeling on one knee, and a further study of his left foot sold for GBP 2,750.00 (€ 3,019.32) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 1,500.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Pompeo Batoni achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Susanna And The Elders in February 2013 with an auction result of USD 11,394,500.00 (€ 8,712,057.50).
