This artwork by Caio Fonseca achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in New York in September 2019. In the Post-War to Present auction, the work Pietrasanta Painting C01.32 sold for USD 58,750.00 (€ 53,874.37) - well above the upper estimate of USD 30,000.00. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Caio Fonseca; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot Tenth Street #80 sold at auction in March 2017 with the realized price of USD 60,000.00 (€ 56,085.25).
