In December 2006 Christies in London held the auction Old Master Pictures, which included the work A hawking party at rest by an inn by Cornelis Beelt. The »bidding war« ended at GBP 15,600.00 (€ 23,152.35), 56% above the upper estimate. Despite this good result, it is not the highest hammer price for an artwork by Cornelis Beelt; that achieved among the auctions we observed the lot The Departure of King Charles II From Scheveningen On The 24 May 1660 sold at auction in May 2006 with the realized price of EUR 45,600.00.

Oberer Schätzpreis um 56 % übertroffen
