The work Roses, primrose, cactus flower, and a bird's nest on a mossy bank, with a classical statue beyond by François Joseph Huygens was auctioned at Christies in London in October 2010. It achieved a price of GBP 1,875.00 (€ 2,161.90), exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 25%. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by François Joseph Huygens - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Roses, Tulips And Other Flowers In A Vase With Plums And A Bird'S Nest On A Wooden Ledge, which sold at auction in December 2003 for USD 9,560.00 (€ 7,589.11).
