The work Portrait Of Cornelis Sebille Roos (1753-1819) by Adriaan de Lelie was sold in the The I.Q. van Regteren Altena Collection Part II. Dutch and Flemish Drawings from 1500-1900 auction at Christies in Amsterdam in December 2014. The »bidding war« ended at EUR 2,500.00 67% above the upper estimate. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Adriaan de Lelie achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work An old woman frying pancakes in a kitchen, with a maid and two children; An old man reading in an interior, with a maid ironing at a table in December 2020 with an auction result of GBP 23,750.00 (€ 26,530.87).
