This artwork by Alexander Mollinger achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2009. In the Nineteen to Now, art from the 19th, 20th & 21st centuries, including Topographical Observations, African and Indonesian Pictures auction, the work Cattle in a meadow sold for EUR 3,000.00 - well above the upper estimate of EUR 1,600.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Alexander Mollinger - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work A Windmill In A Summer Landscape, which sold at auction in October 2006 for EUR 10,200.00.
