The work In the dog pen by Augustus Knip was sold in the Clocks, Furniture and Works of Art from the Venema Collection auction at Christies in Amsterdam in September 2006. It achieved a price of EUR 3,600.00 exceeding the upper end of the estimate range by 20 %. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Augustus Knip - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Three King Charles Spaniels, which sold at auction in June 2007 for USD 14,400.00 (€ 10,650.89).
