The work A winter carnival in a small Flemish town by Peeter Gijsels was sold in the Old Master Paintings auction at Christies in New York in June 2012. The »bidding war« ended at USD 134,500.00 (€ 106,173.03), 35% above the upper estimate. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Peeter Gijsels - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A town with figures working in bleaching fields in the foreground, which sold at auction in May 2007 for EUR 216,000.00.
Oberer Schätzpreis um 35 % übertroffen
