This artwork by Alexander van Bredael achieved an unexpectedly high price at Christies in London in October 2013. In the Old Masters & British Paintings auction, the work A village landscape with figures playing ball games sold for GBP 27,500.00 (€ 32,504.78) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 15,000.00.
