The work Flowers in a Wan-li gilt-mounted vase in a niche with shells and insects by Ambrosius Bosschaert the Elder was sold in the Old Masters Evening Sale auction at Christies in London in December 2019. The estimated price for the artwork was previously given by the auction house with a range of GBP 1,500,000.00 – 2,500,000.00, the actual price achieved of GBP 1,571,250.00 (€ 1,857,033.60) could thus just exceed the lower estimate.
