Artwork auctioned at three times the upper estimate price
The work Cathedral interior by Hendrick van Steenwijk II was worth GBP 175,000.00 (€ 206,829.52) to a buyer in December 2019. This price was achieved in the auction Old Masters Evening Sale at Christies in London and exceeded the previously set upper estimate of GBP 50,000.00 many times over. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Hendrick van Steenwijk II - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Saint Jerome In His Study, which sold at auction in July 2012 for GBP 337,250.00 (€ 429,565.85).
