Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Houses On A Village Street by Pieter de Molijn was auctioned at Sothebys in New York in January 2019. The price achieved of USD 15,000.00 (€ 13,095.86) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 12,000.00 – 18,000.00. Admittedly, works by Pieter de Molijn have also been auctioned for a multiple of this price - according to our records, the highest result so far was achieved by the work A winter village landscape with peasants on a frozen waterway in December 2019 with an auction result of GBP 75,000.00 (€ 88,641.22).
